Return Stimulus money after amended return?

[Kael]

Hello,

I filed my 2020 taxes and accidently claimed a "other" dependent. Today I just filed an amended return via turbotax to fix it. Making it so I have zero dependents and paid back my $500 I owe to federal. However, since the stimulus bill was based off of your 2020 return if you filed... I got an extra $1400 per my original 2020 return with 1 dependent.

How do I repay the $1400?

"If the payment was a paper check and it hasn’t been cashed:

• Write "Void" in the endorsement section on the back of the check.
• Mail the voided Treasury check immediately to the appropriate IRS location for your state.
• Don't staple, bend or paper clip the check.
• Include a note stating the reason for returning the check. 

If the payment was a paper check and you have cashed it, or if the payment was a direct deposit:

• Submit a personal check, money order, etc., immediately to the appropriate IRS location for your state.
• Write on the check/money order made payable to “U.S. Treasury” and write “2020EIP,” and the taxpayer identification number (Social Security number, or individual taxpayer identification number) of the recipient of the check.
• Include a brief explanation of the reason for returning the EIP."
