Hello,
In the year 2020, I filed for tax amend for 2017 for extra taxes that were paid in that year. While filing the tax amend, I accidentally put the amount due in Line 22 (i.e. Overpayment Received as Refund) as well as in Line 23 (Overpayment Applied to Estimated Tax).
Now, in May 2021 - IRS sent me two checks one for Overpayment Received as Refund (that includes interest amount) and one for Overpayment Applied to Estimated Tax for 2020 (that doesn't include interest).
Now, I'm confused so as to which check I should deposit and which one I should ignore. And, also do I need to notify IRS about this? It seems like if I deposit the check that includes interest rate (obviously a higher amount for me) then I've to show the interest as income for next year tax.
