The amended return will only be the difference you get back or need to pay. You can confirm this by printing your amendment and looking at the 1040X. Line 18 should be your original refund amount and line 21 should be your additional refund. If you paid on your original return it will be on line 16 (but don't include any penalty on 1040 line 38). If there is an amount owed with the amendment, it will be on line 20.

 

Ignore any 1040V voucher that prints out and the new 1040. Those are what your return would have been if you had not needed to amend.

I went in after it was approved I had to add two more or my kids that I thought their mother was claiming it let me amend it and on the tax summary it states they are there but on the Home Screen/tracker it still has the original amount. Will it update? I don’t owe this year.
