Will TurboTax make a payment to the IRS if I pay through www.irs.gov/payments first? I filed and set up a payment, then filed an amended return, which requires a check.

After I filed my original return and set up the payment for the taxes I owe, I received additional income information that required an amendment. The original forms say, "Your return shows you have elected to pay your balance due of XXX by Direct Debit". When I printed out the amendment forms, it now says, "You are paying by check." I want to pay via the online method, but do not want to be charged twice. If I pay via the www.irs.gov/payments website prior to the date I set up the original direct debit, will the original amount still be debited?

No, once the IRS receives your payment, they will not try...

No, once the IRS receives your payment, they will not try to collect it again.
