After you file

Although your 1040-X was Accepted (received for processing by the IRS), it still takes 16 weeks to process.  So your child will have to mail his/her own return.

 

However,  are you sure he/she really qualifies as Independent for 2020?   Some parents are choosing not to claim their kids so that those kids can get stimulus payments.  But that's not how it works.
