After you file

It depends. It's possible it could offset, but it may take some time.  You do have the acceptance date for your original return and if it's been a couple of weeks, then it's likely the refund will be issued to you before the amendment could get processed.  If this is the case, I suggest making the payment no later than April 18th, for the amendment.
