If you have not filed the return you can make the corrections before you send them.... but ...
Unfortunately, once you
transmit your return you cannot change it or get it back. You would
have to wait until your return gets rejected or accepted. If
rejected, you can make your changes or add information to your return. If
accepted, you would need to amend your return to correct or add
information to your return.
If you need to amend your
return and you're amending to claim more money, the IRS says to wait until
you've received your original refund before filing an amendment. Once you've
received your original refund, feel free to cash or spend it while your
amendment gets processed (this can take 12–16 weeks). 3 weeks after you mailed
your amendment, you can start tracking its progress at the IRS Where's My Amended Return? site.
