Adding 8962 after filed and sending IRS papers

I got the letter from IRS wanting a
-completed form 8962
-copy of form 1095-A
-newly computed page 2 of my tax return with the original signatures, showing the transferred amount from form 8962 if applicable.

In the letter though it states not to send the Amended U.S. Individual Income Tax Return. So because of that, I don't know what to do... Wouldn't a new computed page with the info be an amended return?

Adding 8962 after filed and sending IRS papers

When I did this process, TurboTax changed my education deduction which changed my AGI probably because I have to pay back the tax credit received for Obamacare & this helped to decrease that amount. Do I still mail only the requested info or will I now need to send an amended return? Also, it changes my Illinois state return because of the AGI, do I have to send an amended return on it too?

In order to complete the 8962 you will need to start as an amending return but that return will not be filed.

You may have received a letter from the IRS asking for Form 8962, which is related to the information on Form 1095-A.

These steps enter your Form 1095-A in TurboTax as an amended return and creates Form 8962 for you to print and mail to the IRS.

Only the Form 8962 the IRS requested is sent in, do not send the entire amended return.
