One completed & filed a 1st Qtr Form 941-SS (for American Samoa,Guam, etc).
Should have used Form 941. Now the choices seem to be:
a) do nothing,
b) Prepare a 941-X (note there was no overreporting or underreporting, everything is correct, just wrong form),
c) File a 941 and a 941-X
Showing on the 941-X a series of overreported original amounts all reduced to zero
d) ???
Thanks!

Not exactly what you're talking about, Goodday, but in the past I've been able to have an agent adjust the designated quarter on a form 941 via a phone call to the Tax Practitioners Hotline.
Otherwise, I like the do nothing option, then dealing with IRS inquiries when and if they occur.

If this dropped in my lap when I was a revenue officer I would tell the taxpayer to do nothing and check the 941 filing requirement to it was for a regular 941 not one of the oddball ones. (941-E, 941-PR or 941-SS)
