An amended return has to be filed on a special form, Form 1040X. It cannot be e-filed. Your son will have to print it, sign it, and file it by mail. It takes the IRS up to 16 weeks to process an amended return.
He should not file the amended return until his original return has been accepted and he has received the original refund.
However, even after your son files his amended return you will not be able to e-file your return this year. You will have to print your tax return, sign it, and file it by mail.
