Do i need to file amended return if I received a notice of payment due from IRS

[mvkartik]

I incorrectly claimed an estimated tax payment for April 2016 which I had not made. Consequently I got a notice from IRS today regarding amount due. The notice itself doesn't mention anything about needing to file an amended return to correct this on my tax filing. Do I still need to file an amended return?

If the IRS caught your mistake and that is what the tax due is for, you do not need to amend your return.
