After you file
STOP ... DO NOTHING MORE. DO NOT SEND IN AN AMENDED RETURN. The IRS will be making the corrections on the already filed returns for the Unemployment correction and will take into consideration any payments made. This is slated to happen sometime in May so just sit tight and wait.
To stop folks from amending too fast the amendment program has been suspended which is why you don't see the 1040X ... the IRS requested this to keep their system from being overwhelmed by unneeded filings.
If you save a PDF of the return and look at the corrected 1040 you will see the program has already taken care of the reduction for you ... there was nothing you needed to do at all. LOOK at line 8 of the Sch 1 to see the UCE reduction. Then look at the 1040 line 34 or 37 to see the correct bottom line. If you made a payment then factor that into the equation.
