I filed a return in March where I owed money and selected direct debit on April 16. Then I realized some information was missing on a form that would require me to owe a little less money. I immediately filed an amended return and Turbo Tax wanted me to mail in a check for what I owed in taxes (amount from original return - over payment) even though I had already signed up for the debit. I didn't want to double pay as I had a large bill -- my expectation was that the direct debit would still go through on April 16 and then later I would get a small amount of refund back from my over payment. Are my expectations correct, or is TurboTax going to cancel the originally scheduled debit because of the amended return I filed? If TurboTax is going to cancel the debit, should I hop on the IRS site and pay what I owed on the original return, or the smaller, correct amount from the amended return?
No, the payment will probably go through since it's done through computers. TurboTax does not have the capability to take back your Direct Debit request once your return is e-filed.
Once your return is accepted, information pertaining to your payment, such as account information, payment date, or amount, cannot be changed. If changes are needed, the only option is to cancel the payment and choose another payment method.
