Amending a return

I submitted 2022 tax return by the second deadline Oct 16th.  I did an installment plan to pay taxes.  Now I have received more information to amend that return that will reduce my taxes.  My return has been accepted by the IRS.  When do I amend the return as I am not due a refund?

Thank you!

    If you want to e-File your amendment - recommended - you should fo it now since e-File is about to close down shortly after the Oct 16 extension date

    Thank you!  And if I am due a refund even though I paid the original amount due, is my only option to have the difference refunded to me or apply to estimated tax? i.e. I cannot have it apply to the 2022 reduce my installment plan, correct?

    Thank you!

    Just ask for the refund but you won't get it.

    IRS always applies an additional refund to your outstanding balance.
