After you file

I filed in March and then a few days later found another W2.  Between the time that I discovered the error and waited for the 1040X form to be ready they announced the unemployment refund and instructed everyone that is expecting a refund NOT to amend their returns.  I feel now I am in a pickle.  I NEED to amend to add the W2, but I also need to NOT amend in order to get my unemployment refund.  Is there a time when the unemployment refund will be coming?  Is there a date by which I need to add the new W2?  Are there penalties involved?  How long after the tax filing deadline can I wait to amend?

Thanks.
