If he filed his return without an Identity Protection PIN, he can get one now and you can file him with the pin. It just takes a couple of minutes to log in and get one.  IRS online account

 

If he filed with the IP PIN: you  can wait for his amended to go through and then e-file or you can mail it in. I hope he doesn't have a pin, it is much easier.

 

His return will need to be amended - just a question of immediately or soon.
