The IRS will adjust you tax return accordingly and remove the credit from the federal tax refund.  You do not have to amend.

See this IRS website - https://www.irs.gov/newsroom/2020-recovery-rebate-credit-topic-g-correcting-issues-after-the-2020-ta...

 

 

A2. DO NOT file an amended tax return with the IRS. If you entered an amount on line 30 but made a mistake in calculating the amount, the IRS will calculate the correct amount of the Recovery Rebate Credit, make the correction to your tax return and continue processing your return. If a correction is needed, there may be a slight delay in processing your return and the IRS will send you a notice explaining any change made.

To check the status of your refund from your original return, check Where's My Refund?

Do not amend for that.  Did you have an amount on line 30?  If it is wrong the IRS will adjust your return for you.

 

If you are missing some of the first or second Stimulus payments or qualify for more but nothing got added on line 30 then you do have to amend.
