Since you only filed the Federal return, you will only amend your Federal return.

It is also a good idea to wait to send your California and LA tax returns after your Federal amendment is processed since they rely on the Federal information.

Here are some instructions for amending your return:

You will mail your return to the IRS. They do not accept electronic amendments.

The following IRS link is very helpful in understanding the amendment process.
