1040X dependent (part I, Line 30 for Rev. Jan. 2020)

I have a questions for dependents in 1040x (Rev 1-2020) part I, line 30 for my 2019 amendment.

Part I indicates that "Complete this part only if any information relating to exemptions (to dependents if amending your 2018 or later return) has changed from what you reported on the return you are amending. This would include a change in the number of exemptions (of dependents if amending your 2018 or later return)."

Then, I can find this statement in the 1040x instruction.

"List all dependents claimed on this amended return. This includes:
• Dependents claimed on your original return who are still being
claimed on this return, and
• Dependents not claimed on your original return who are being
added to this return.

I have no change in my dependents. Do I need to list the dependents on my 1040 even if there is no change?

The 1040x form generated from TurboTax does not include my original dependents in line 30 of 1040x.

Is that ok to submit this way?

If there was no change to your dependents you do not need to enter any information in that section.

I am trying to remove a dependent from my 1040 form. I e-filed in Turbo Tax and am trying to amend using 1040x. Turbo Tax doesn't pull in any information in line 25 or 30 of 1040X. I was able to go into the forms and add the required information but my son's name doesn't appear in line 30(a) even though I manually typed it in the form. Why doesn't Turbo Tax fill in the correct information automatically and still won't show my son's name after manually typing it in. Isn't this information required per the IRS instructions? Thanks.
