Did you already e-file? If you already e-filed, you will have to wait for the e-file to be accepted or rejected. If it is rejected you can make those changes in MY INFO and re-file. If the IRS accepts the return you will have to wait until it has been fully processed and then prepare an amended return on a Form 1040X.
