After you file

If you scheduled a payment  of X  is it because 1040 says amount you owe is X?

or 1040-X says amount you owe is X ?

any amount you already paid before 1040-X does its arithmetic should be on 1040-X Line 16.

 

IRS: says

processing of e-Filed and mailed amenments is the same.

It's just that e-File is much more convenient and less error-prone.
