After you file

That is unlikely.  The IRS would not know that you are amending your return or why you are amending unless you have already filed the amended return.  

 

It is generally best to wait until your original return has been fully processed and you have received your refund before you file an amended return.  Each return is treated separately and they are processed separately.
