After you file

I've been trying to amend my 2021 return due to fact we need to remove our daughter from being a dependent.  Problem is each time I open my file used to file my 2021 taxes to amend it, as soon as I hit that I've already filed the 2021 Taxes, TurboTax gives me a >$4000 refund when my filed taxes showed that I owed >9K.  The simple fact of removing our dependent should only increase my tax liability by $500 not decrease and give me a whopping refund.  I've tried this multiple times with copies of my original file and each time i select 2021, it jumps not to 0 but rather to $4500+ refund.  This is wrong.  

I've even run a test filing copy without our daughter and the amount owed is exactly $500 more than original filed return.  TurboTax - I need your help to fix this so I can file the right sort of amendment and not send in something that's completely wrong.  

 

Thank you.
