Does anyone know why i keep getting rejected when i try to amend my federal e-file return ?

@Santana3 Are you amending to change your filing status to HOH?   Are you in fact Head of Household?   Do you meet the criteria to file as HOH?

Am I Head of Household?

If you qualify as Head of Household, when you enter your filing status (single or married filing separately) into MyInfo, and then enter your qualifying dependent, TurboTax will offer HOH as your filing status.

If you can file as HOH that should not be a reason for the return to be rejected.

exactly I usually file for that every year but the irs rejected my amendment return because they said they want it to say single as it did before on my original return

I have 3 dependents I should be able to file head of household

Ok ... the new efiling  of amended returns has some limitations ... you MUST mail in the 1040X if you change filing statues.  This doesn't mean you cannot do it  just that it cannot be efiled.

Having 3 dependents doesn't automatically  mean you are HOH ... supporting the household does.  

Am I Head of Household?
