the state has already corrected my refund and has given me the correct amount so i do not understand why it is trying to make me pay or should i not even file my state amended?

If the state adjusted your return for you then you probably do not need to amend. Did they ask you to amend?

So if the state already adjusted your refund, why are you amending the state tax return? You file an amended return to correct an error in the original tax return. If the state already corrected the error, you do not file an amended return. Is there another error in the tax return besides what the state corrected?
