I already sent out my federal taxes but realized I deleted a dependent when I was editing information this morning, do I wait for the federal refund to process then amend ?, also if I haven't sent off my state can I add my dependent to fix that or just wait

If you filed, it is like dropping it into a mailbox - you cannot get it back.

You'll have wait until your return is either accepted or rejected.

If rejected, you can make any necessary changes.
If accepted, you'll need to amend your return.
To avoid unnecessary delays, do not amend until your original return has been fully processed. You will need to print and mail the amendment.
Allow 8-12 weeks for processing.

See this TurboTax FAQ for help with amending.

You can check the status of your amended return here, but allow 3 weeks after filing for it to show up.

what do you mean by fully accepted

"Fully accepted" would actually mean approved. Once they approve your return, they will issue you a refund. The IRS releases most refunds with some exceptions, within 21 calendar days after the e-filed return has been approved, not 21 days from the e-filing date.
