we can't see the return or 1099R.
You are asking from TT Live, for which you paid extra.
5 AM to 5 PM, PT, Monday–Friday
taxes are high in these Unites States of America for you and me.
Meanwhile, billionaires pay nothing.
They may have taken taxes out (typically, 20%) on your settlement, but apparently that was not enough to cover the actual taxes due.
Yes that sounds correct ... adding more income increases your taxes and could decrease credits. Also if you are under the age of 59.5 there is a 10% penalty in addition to the federal taxes. So if they withheld the standard 20% but your tax bracket is 15% + 10% penalty you would owe 25% in total taxes thus the withholding was not enough to cover the tax on the distribution.
Look at the form 1040X …
Column A should have the figures from the original return, Column C the corrected figures and Column B the differences between the other 2 which needs an explanation on page 2 of the form 1040X.
If you completed it correctly you will see an entry on either line 16 OR 18:
On line 16 should be the amount you paid with your original return. If you paid nothing already then this line should be zero.
On line 18 should be the amount of your original refund you received. If you have not received your refund yet then you need to wait for it. If the refund changes from what you expected then this line must reflect that change.
Then you will see your extra refund on line 22 OR the new balance due you need to pay on line 20
