I filed a NY State Amendment but when I click Download/print return I do not see my updated filing and this was about 1 month ago

Is there something I'm missing? With my amendment I was supposed to be getting a modest refund, but it still shows that I have a balance outstanding

Did you print and mail the amended return? Amended returns have to be printed and mailed. They can't be e-filed per IRS regulation. It is recommended to wait until the IRS has accepted your initial return and you have received your federal refund before you amend the return. And the filing instructions page that prints with the return will tell you what needs to be included. If you have done the amend steps and you need to get back in and print the return, the steps to do so can be found below.

Please advise on the above question? It seems like the answer is yes from following the TT instructions, though I’ve seen mixed feedback in answers provided here.  Please advise and thanks very much.

Hello. Can one set up bank info in TT for an amended 2018 Fed Return having a refund, while the original return had a payment due? I don’t see a place to put bank info for a refund. Will IRS just use the bank acct provided in the original filing from where they pulled the amount due? Please advise or elaborate.  Thanks
