You are correct, you will have to print your return and mail it. The IRS has a significant backlog of paper returns, so you can expect their to be a considerable delay in receiving whatever refund you are expecting. It's hard to say exactly how long that delay will be. You father will not incur a penalty for filing an amended return, but if he owes additional tax he will have to pay that. If he files the amended return and pays any additional tax, there won't be any penalties.
