I am beating my head against my desk. Something so simple is making me crazy. I am trying to amend a 1040 for a client who should not have claimed a dependent. I pull up the original return, do I make changes to the original return and take out the dependent that should have not been claimed?? Or just do this on the 1040X, original amounts and the corrected amounts. I efiled the amended and am getting an error that the 1040x amounts do not match the original amounts. They shouldn't match the original because I am changing them???
