You will need to amend your return. Amended returns must be mailed to the IRS.

If, when you print your 1040X, "Do not file" is printed on it, that means the form is not ready and you must wait, probably until mid-February.

Here are the general instructions for amending a return. Unlike for prior years, you will be able to amend your 2016 return in TurboTax Online.

The father will have to mail his return to the IRS. Tell him to wait until after you have mailed your amended return.
