"efiled and put wrong ein number on trust return and it was accepted"

You can file an amended return which, in this instance, is a rather simple procedure.

Simply change the EIN to the correct one, check the amended return box, and include a statement to the effect that the EIN on the original return was incorrect. Then print and mail the amended return.
