It sounds like an additional 6,200 is owed. The previous amount should already be included. The amendment (Form 1040-X) only represents the changes made to the original return. If you look at the form, at the bottom of page 1, lines 18 - 23, you will see the previous amounts (the 46k) accounted for.
Form 1040-X:
Line 18 — Overpayment - original return
Line 20 — Amount you owe
Line 22 — Overpayment received as refund
Line 23 — Overpayment applied to estimated tax
Form 1040-X contains three columns:
- Column A. This column shows the numbers previously reported on your tax return. Use the copy of your tax return you gathered in Step 1 to complete this column.
- Column B. This column shows how the amounts from your original return need to increase or decrease. For example, if you're amending your gross income to include $50 of interest income missing from your previously filed tax return, you would enter $50 on line 1, column B.
- Column C. This column shows the correct amount. Just add the amounts from column A and column B and enter the result here.
