how to amend my taxes without turbo tax saying i owe money because i am due a refund from the irs

[alexissmith3110]

i put in the wrong amount claimed for federal so i need to amend i spoke with an agent and they said its saying i owe money when i try to do it online because their online software is thinking i received my taxes. i need to know how to file without it saying i owe the money when i am due a refund from the irs and i haven't received my initial refund its still processing

Wait until your initial return is completely processed and your refund received before starting on an amendment.  Amending while the return is being processed can result in confusion and a long wait for your refund.
