Incorrectly Reported Estimated Taxes Paid

I incorrectly claimed an estimated tax payment from January 2021 on my 2021 taxes when it was already included on my 2020 taxes. I am due a refund and my 2021 tax return has been accepted by the IRS. Is this something they will correct when they send my refund, or do I need to submit an amended return to remove the January 2021 estimated tax payment amount?

Please be patient and let the IRS process your return before you do anything. My experience has been that they will make corrections if your payments exceed what you have on your tax return. You may get a letter, or you may just get the deposit in your account. Regardless, don't do anything until the process is complete.

If when the IRS process is done you can reach out to us again if you need assistance.
