form 8812 wrong input

With the underpayment of taxes due to form 8812 mistake, I now owe the IRS money. Do I attempt to amend my return to reflect the correction and pay or just pay the amount?

    Pay the amount required by the IRS and then amend your return.

    So I amend return (form 8812) but don’t refile right?

    Amend your return by including form 8812 and efile the amended return.
