Correct form 8938 mistake after e-filing before the due date. (2020 return)
I omitted several foreign accounts on the return I e-filed yesterday. I didn't realize empty or inactive accounts that earned no income also had to be reported.
What is the best way to correct this mistake so that it doesn't count as being overdue to avoid possible penalties?
I also read that superseding returns exist. Is there any practical difference between using that vs just filing an amended return before the due date for my case?
My return was accepted but the money has yet to be deducted from my bank account. Waiting for that to happen may push me after the May 17 due date. Should I go ahead and amend now anyways?
