The amount is small and it may not make a difference but as Hal_Al stated above, it depends on other factors. How much income was on your jointly filed federal return?
1 - You can do the amendment on TurboTax, but it would require a lot of re-entry. If you used Block, maybe you can access your return online through them and do the same thing we are suggesting here? You would basically need to create a tax return on TurboTax tax exactly as you originally filed it through Block. Then file it (and probably pay for it) via mail (but not really mail it) and then you would have a tax file that could be amended in TurboTax.
2 - Yes, if no change, you can ignore and cancel it - which I am guessing you could do with the other software as well, but I don't know anything about that.
3 - See #1 - but no matter what you do, you do not need to return any refund you already were sent. If you owe something from the amendment, you can pay it then.
4 - The amount does not matter, you can be charged interest on any amount of taxable income no matter how small it is.
5 - Amendments are free - but you may be required to pay to ''file'' the original return on TurboTax in order to get a return that is amendable. If you qualify for the Free Edition, it may not cost you anything.
Since you have already filed, you are not risking a non-filing penalty if you do nothing. Another option to ease your mind is to create the account in TurboTax and re-enter the tax info you filed already and also include the 1098-T. If the refund amount is the same, sign out of TurboTax (don't pay or file anything) and keep the 1098-T with your tax records.
