double tax on amended return with TT

[rabird]

amended return, old 'refund' applied to 2022 $3707

new amount owed $842

of course TT wants bank info to pay the $842

new refund applied to 2022 is $2865

If the new tax of $842 is paid via check or bank debit then that's double tax.

Since I am still overpaid, I'll wait a good while till TT gets this fixed!!!!

well it looks like TT has a $842 refund and then I pay $842

this would be zero additional tax with a reduction in refund applied to next year.

I tried to back everything thing out, the $842 refund is unmediatable

I call this a 'feature' (read bug) and not acceptable!

" old 'refund' applied to 2022 $3707

If you want your original refund applied to 2022 you must do that on your 1040 and then you can't change it.

If you try to do it on your 1040-X it will cause issues because IRS is going to do what your 1040 said to do.

Only an additional refund should be marked to apply to 2022 on 1040-X

I don't care to pay $842 and have my applied to 2022 reduced, that is what is happening.

" that is what is happening."

If you don't pay amount you owe,

eventually you will get a bill for $842 plus interest and penalties. And your 2022 credit from Form 1040 will still be in your IRS account.

If you see an amount on 1040-X line 23, something is not right.

Bank info is meaningless, you can't have electronic withdrawal for 1040-X.

But it does work for some state amended returns.
