Amending Return with Overpayment Applied to 2024
I'm trying to amend my return, and not sure what I should be doing. Let's say I filed my return and had a $2,000 refund. I applied that to next year's tax return. I received a late 1099-INT. I amended my return and now my refund is $1,000. When I do the amendment through Turbotax, it's saying I owe $1,000 and need to mail a check. That's understandable if the IRS is supposed to pay me the $2,000, but I applied it to my next years return.
After doing the amendment through Turbotax and I download the PDF, that PDF contains a 1040-X return as well as another 1040. 1040-X shows the original $2,000 overpayment/refund and now I owe $1,000. It's followed by a new 1040 that shows $1,000 overpayment and $0 owed/due to me.
Should I be mailing in the $1,000? Or I shouldn't as the new $1,000 overpayment will be included on my next years return when doing it through Turbotax. Thanks in advance for any input you can share.
