I received notice that I had to file an amended return from the state.  I completed the  return and will send to the state this afternoon.  When i completed my amended state return an amended federal return was generated.  I have not received any notice from the IRS.  Should I mail the amended federal return now  with the appropriate note attached or wait until i am notified by the IRS and sent the amended return in at that time??

You might want to wait until the IRS has fully processed your original return (refund received or payment withdrawn).  The IRS does automatically correct some errors on the Federal return.  If they do, then they would send you a letter explaining what they changed and why.
