I was supposed to receive $6,000 back from GA state. I amended it due to the SALT deductions. Now it says I owe $649. Will i get the $6,000 back, and will they deduct the $649? Or do I get nothing back and have to lay $649?

    They will likely deduct the amount from your previous refund. Because you filed your amendment prior to your first return being processed, it will delay the whole process. You should not amend until your first return is completely processed for this reason.
