Cancel an amendment?

When I originally filed, I noticed that I didn't report all of the Stimulus money so I filed an amendment which reduced my refund.  However, the IRS made the correction on my original return to adjust for the corrected stimulus amount.  I didn't think I'd need to cancel the amendment I had done, but they are trying to take the adjusted amount from my bank account (in other words, take money they never gave me).  How do do get this corrected?

Cancel an amendment?

You will have to contact the IRS to resolve this issue. There is no form you can submit to amend an amendment. You need to call them and tell them what happened and ask for guidance on how to proceed. When you call them, tell them to put a hold on your account to give them time to address the matter so their collection activities will stop for a period of time. Their number is 1-800-829-1040.

@LenaH I have already submitted the adjusted return and it was accepted so I am unable to cancel it using the steps provided.

you have to wait for the IRS to handle the amendment and see what they do about it.

When IRS adjusts your 1040-X to zero tax due, you will get your $1,400 back.

@ThomasM125 

Use Form 1040-X to correct or add information on an already filed tax return,

when you submit 1040-X, that 1040-X becomes your new tax return.

 

IRS will accept three e-Filed Forms 1040-X this year.

 

There's no collection going on here and you can't tell the IRS to stop it even if you do get through on the phone lines.

As I mentioned above,

In your situation it is best to wait and let the IRS give some result on what you already did.
