1040X shows I paid $124 in additional taxes per my original 1040. I want to submit 1040X with a dependent credit for $500. 1040X correctly shows my refund is $500. The amended 1040 doesn't include my extra tax payment of $124 by check anywhere so the refund is showing as $376. I would be paying twice.
How should the extra tax payment of $124 be added to the 1040 form so it will match the 1040X showing $500 refund?
Thank you.

when filing 1040-X, do not include your old 1040 nor your revised 1040 because the Form 1040-X reflects any changes there and becomes your new tax return.

Look at the 1040X which is the ONLY form you are filing...
Look at the form 1040X …
Column A should have the figures from the original return, Column C the corrected figures and Column B the differences between the other 2 which needs an explanation on page 2 of the form 1040X.
If you completed it correctly you will see an entry on either line 16 OR 18:
On line 16 should be the amount you paid with your original return. If you paid nothing already then this line should be zero.
On line 18 should be the amount of your original refund you received. If you have not received your refund yet then you need to wait for it. If the refund changes from what you expected then this line must reflect that change.
Then you will see your extra refund on line 22 OR the new balance due you need to pay on line 20.
