After you file
That can't be the Turbo Tax fee. That must be a tax due?
Did you get the first refund from the wrong filed return? When you Amended you should have deleted the 2018 W2s and entered your 2019 info. You will get the full refund from the wrong return but you may need to pay some if it back on the amended return.
In fact you should not even amend until the first return has fully processed and you get the first refund or your tax due payment has cleared.
Then the amended return is only for the difference you get back or owe. I think the cover sheet shows what the original return WOULD have been if you did it right the first time.
Go by the actual 1040X. Line 18 should be your original refund amount and line 22 should be your additional refund. If you paid on your original return it will be on line 16. If there is an amount owed with the amendment, it will be on line 20.
If you have a tax due, do not send the 1040V. Just include a check with the 1040X. Ignore the 1040V. That is for the original return or what the original return would have been if it didn’t need correcting. Don’t pay the amount on the 1040V. Pay the amount on the actual 1040X.
THEN Do you still need to file your 2018 tax return?
