@lildogtrainer - Your amended return was rejected because the IRS is not accepting amended returns for tax year 2021 yet. Hold off, you do not have to file by mail if you wait until IRS starts to accept the Form 1040X. Usually, by March 31, you will be able to amend. You will be able to e-file the amended return.
Before filing an amended return, make sure the IRS has already processed the tax return you need to amend. That way, you can ensure the IRS won't get your original return and amended return mixed up. If you've already received your tax refund, then you know the IRS has already processed your return.
Since you did not pay your state taxes when you filed you will now have to wait until the state return is processed. Your balance due is not in their system yet. You will need to wait until April 15, 2022 before paying the taxes owed or if you receive a notice from the state.
