You only need to amend your return if you are able to (and wish to) claim education credits or if the qualified expenses (for purposes of the 1099-Q distribution) were less than the distribution and you need to report taxable income.
If you do not have any taxable income from the 1099-Q distribution it is not required to be reported on either return (and you wouldn't need to amend.)
