No problem. Assuming your earlier filing was some time ago, you still
have more than a week before the final due date to file an amended
return (Form 1040X), with a corrected amount shown. Also, you should
enclose (or authorize direct withdrawal) for any additional taxes due,
including any excess refund.

Please note: If your return was filed recently, there might be a
problem with two returns "in transit at the same time." If you have
confirmed that any payment has been made and deposited by IRS (or if you
have received any refund you were due), then you can immediately file.
Otherwise, I would recommend you mail your amended return (1040X),
including any payment, which will allow more time for the prior return
to clear.

I filed my 2008 return and had a deduction because I planned on
contributing $2500 to my IRA before 4/15. I cannot make this
contribution now..I can make a smaller one. What will happen to my
2009 return? Thanks for any help
