Anyone tried to amend a 2020 1040 for a recovery rebate error.  Taxpayers, after signing the 8879 and getting their refund already, decided to go to the irsidentify site and confirm their EIP 1 and 2 amounts.  Of course they found they had gotten less than the full amount they told us.  So when I bring up the 1040X, click on 2020 tax year, and then go back and correct the Recovery Rebate CR wks..nothing happens on the 1040X. I have to manually enter all amounts, both previous, and corrected, and in some cases, the actual change.  I can get to the amount needed as the refund, but never had to do all this before.
