When I did my taxes in February, the stimulus questions asked about the first $600 payment and the second 600 payment. - then said I was qualified for more and added $600 to my return. After i got notification from IRS that my refund had been changed, I looked in TT and my refund had changed from 1877 to 1277. Since the difference was 600, I looked at the stimulus and the questions had been changed and the first amount changed to 1200 from 600, and my refund in TT changed , without my help, to 1277. At that point, I checked my bank statements and realized the first payment was indeed 1200. Oops, but no problem - i couldn't figure out why TT added the 600 in the first place. But, when I tried to amend, TT was deducting the 600 that the IRS had already deducted. I COULD NOT START WITH THE FREAKIN ORIGINAL RETURN BECAUSE A SOFTWARE UPDATE HAD CHANGED IT!
Yes, I am an ignorant amateur - that's why I came to this website. I was hoping to find out how to fix my problem, not to get a snarky, condescending comment that offered no solutions. The other person who responded told me what lines to fix and I got it corrected. If you can't help someone, don't respond to their issue.
