After you file

If you never would have paid the $1,000, after the tax law changed, you would have owed $100.  The IRS refunded you $900 of the $1,000 you paid because after the adjustments were made her tax liability was $100 instead of $1,000.  Basically, you overpaid by $900.  There is no need to file anything.  

 

When you see the change on your amended form, it is including the $1,000 already paid.  It is not saying that you would have originally received a $900 refund.
