Amend your return.
If you discover an error after your return has been mailed, you may need to amend your return. The service center may correct errors in math on a return and may accept returns with certain forms or schedules left out. In these instances, do not amend your return!
However, do file an amended return if any of the following were reported incorrectly:
your filing status
your total income
your deductions or credits
Use Form 1040X (PDF), Amended U.S. Individual Income Tax Return, to correct a previously filed Form 1040 (PDF), Form 1040A (PDF), or Form 1040EZ (PDF). If you are filing to claim an additional refund, wait until you have received your original refund (you may cash that check). To avoid penalty and interest, if you owe additional tax for a current year amended return, file Form 1040X and pay the tax by April 15 of the current year.

You will be able to file an amended tax return. You should have an area for it under forms. It's 1044X, I think.

I had that happen last year. You will have to file an ammended return. Unless you got a lot, it really won't make a big difference.

Wait until you get it, then file an amended return 1040X.
