2020 Unemployment Income Tax | How do I generate an amended return?

I use TT2020 desktop and TT2021 desktop.  I filed my 2020 return before the change that exempts the first $10,200 of UI from being taxed.  Subsequently, out of nowhere, with no explanation, I received a check form the Treasury.  My best guess is that they amended my return and issued a refund.

 

How do I "generate" a 2020 return that reflects the amendment the Feds made?  (1) Will TT2020 automatically do this when I open my 2020 return in TT2020?  Or (2) should I open my 2020 return in TT2020 and make the change manually?  Or (3) do something else?  Which one... 1... 2... or 3?  Please advise.  Thanks.
