Amended Federal Return e-filed one day after original return

This question is about filing an amended return before the original one completely processes.   I am not getting any refunds, just owe.

 

The original return as accepted yesterday, but the tax payment was not processed through my bank account yet.  Today I just did the amended return that resulted in an additional $200 being due.  Now when I open the TurboTax file, the only Federal Tax due that is showing is the $200, and when I click on Current Status is just shows me that the amended return is accepted.  It does not say anything about the original, even though I have a previous email/text saying the IRS accepted the original.

 

However, when I look at the actual form 1040 and 1040-X behind the scenes in TurboTax, it does show the original tax due as paid on like 16 of the 1040-X and the additional amount owed to the amendment as $200 on line 20.  On form 1040, line 37 "Amount you owe" shows the total amount from the original and the amendment.  So, that seems all in order to me.  But still.  Will they process both the original debit and the amended amount from my bank account?  If they don't, then the system has a huge flaw.  It should not have allowed me to amend at this time.

"will they process"

if you mean IRS, the answer is yes.

 

1040 and 1040-X are processed separately.

1040-X has no choice but to assume 1040 is processed as filed.

for that to work you have to pay the "amount you owe" shown on Form 1040.

 

It is up to you to review 1040-X before submitting it. Which you did.
