After you file

If the e-file was accepted, leave it alone.  Do not amend for your name.  The IRS only uses the first few letters of your name---it is important for your Social Security number to be correct.   If your e-file was rejected, you do not "amend"---you just go to MY INFO and fix your name and then re-file the return.
