Deductions & credits
No, You are not required to report it.
_____________________
It's possible it had no effect because either: a) You were using the Std Deduction, and the extra $$ still didn't put you into itemized deduction territory, or b) you were already getting all your withholding and prepaid taxes back...so adding a gazillion $$ of new deductions wouldn't do anything.
______________________________
Never amend until your original tax filing is "accepted" by the IRS.....and if you e-filed the state, you need to wait for a response from them too. It's also best to wait for your original refund too...or pay any original balance due, if any.
_________________________
You should go back and remove the amended data. Don't ever Amend until months after your original was filed since there may be other changes you discover you need to make. That commonly happens fore people who file this early...they"forget" about the bank interest, or investment account dividends, or get a corrected W-2C in March...and you don't want to attempt to amend two or three time. You just gather the various changes you think you need to make in a folder and do the amendments in (say) June.
