After you file

I would try picking a date closer to April 15th for your payment date.  Have you already received your Refund from your original return?   If not, wait until you do before sending in an amended return.  You have up to three years to amend a return. 

 

An Amended Return does not 'catch up' to your original filed return and correct it.

 

It is processed separately and can take several weeks to process.
