Amend 2024 Fed return

I filed 2024 fed taxes and received refund.  Received unexpected W2 for $78 after I filed.  It appears the $78 would have reduced my fed refund by $11.00...and State by $0.  Should I amend or simply wait to see if IRS will send me a notice

    The correct thing to do would be to amend the return and pay in the tax you owe. If you don't do that, it is difficult to say if the IRS will bill you for such a small balance due. If they do, you will have to pay interest and a penalty but based on the amount of tax due it would be minimal.
