I received the tax credits for child and other dependents with my unemployment included in my taxes. Do I need to amend if it will increase these benefits?

Without my unemployment it lowers my agi by the 10,200 so I'm not sure if I need to amend since it should increase my dependent credits

The subtraction from AGI can indeed affect other credits, but wait until you see what the IRS adjusts themselves before amending. You have 3 years to amend.

Agreed wait to amend ... to start the amendment you must begin with the corrected figures from the IRS so you cannot even start until you see what they do first. Do not jump the gun as it would only make things worse.
