Amend Return

I filed my California return on February17. I owed taxes and designated the amount to be taken out of my checking account on April 14. I discovered a mistake on February 18 that results in a refund instead of owing money. Can I quickly file an amended return that will correct the mistake, so I will get the refund due and not have any money taken out of my checking account on April 14?

You can contact the state of California to have your payment canceled. ‌Their number is 916-845-0353. 

 

You should also wait until your return is processed before filing the amended return. ‌On your amended state, it'll ask about payments that were made with the original return. If you cancel the payment, make sure to enter 0 in this question.
