and then just wait for a refund of the difference? Or should I pay the lower amended amount when I send in the Amended return?
Yes, you will first want to resolve the original return by paying the entire amount. If you are due a refund after amending, then you will receive a check from the IRS.
To print your amended return, follow the steps below.

It takes the IRS up to 16 weeks to process amended returns. Also, depending on whether the changes affect your numbers, you may also be required to file an amended return with your state.

You should not amend until they finish processing the first original return and you get the first refund. Or you still need to pay the original tax due.
Then the Amended return will only be for the difference you get back or owe. You have to wait because the IRS might adjust the original return for you.
