You could, then when the Adoption form credit (8839) is available (3/3/22) you would have to amend your return. Amended returns can take 8 to 12 weeks to process an amended return. You can check the status of an amended return at the IRS website Where's My Amended Return. It takes about 3 weeks from the date you mailed the amended return for it to show up in the IRS system.
