What to do for HCTC submission error?

In error, I filed submission for the Health Coverage Tax Credit for my 2017 taxes.  This credit only amounted to $1 dollar more toward my refund amount.  I'm being asked to mail in additional forms/information.  I am not claiming the credit.  I've printed and filled out from 8453 as instructed. On that form, I've noted that I'm not claiming the credit and that my actual refund should be $1 dollar lower.  In the letter I drafted to the IRS, I've also noted this too.  Will I have to file and amended return, will it delay my refund for this error or is what I've done sufficient?  Thank you.
