Identity Protection PIN

I followed the instructions to complete the missing IP PIN, but when I tried to e-mail my amended return the TurboTax software window said "Unable to e-file" with the comments "It looks like you've prepared a federal amended return form 1040X.  It also looks like you haven't e-filed the 1040 through TurboTax".  I e-filed a 1040-SR through TurboTax.  Is this not the same as e-filing a 1040X? I do not want to "File by mail" since I already filed via e-file my 1040-SR.  Is there a work around or manual way to override the system to e-file when the only change was supplying the missing IP PIN?  HELP!

if the only issue was a missing IP PIN your return was rejected. this only requires fixing the IP PIN issue and re-efiling. you DONOT file an amended return (no 1040-X - that's only for returns that are accepted)
