Filing Amendment When Not filed through TurboTax

I need to amend a tax return for 2018 for my in-laws that was completed and filed outside of TurboTax.  When auditing the entries for 2018, I noticed that the person that prepared the tax form and submitted the taxes made errors.  When entering the tax information for 2018 into TurboTax, it reflects a surplus amount of taxes overpaid of $487.00 but when they filed through another tax preparer,  they owed and were required to pay $1,523.00.  Using the same information the preparer used, I reflect the $487.00 and cannot determine where the error occurred.  If I'm correct, my in-laws should receive $2010.00 from the Federal Government through an amended tax return.  I've narrowed it down to the IRA and Pension information that was recorded by the preparer; it appears they entered something incorrectly because the total figures don't match for AGI.

 

My question is:  How do I file the amendment through TurboTax?

 

Thanks,
