After you file

@cust25yr - it;s really hard to follow what you wrote; I am very sorry.  

 

the best course of action is to NEVER amend a return until the IRS has settled the original return.  It risks too much confusion. 

 

If the SUSPERCEDED return is an amendment (you didn't send in a whole new return did you???), they should pull the check out of the envelope and post it to your account (how long ago did you mail the check?)

 

At this point DO NOTHING.  Wait for that 2nd check to clear.  Wait for the Amendement to clear.  Do not try guessing what the iRS is going to do, it's just going to make the situation worse.  Let the dust settle!
