So you know, you have to amend 2020 941's to receive the credit, then amend the 2020 income tax return to reduce the wages deducted on the original return by the credit received from the amended 2020 941's.

If you do not amend the original income tax return, you have then taken the full deduction and received the credit.  


 

Of course you need to amend.  But you DON'T claim the credit on the 941 and AGAIN on the tax return with Form 5884-A.

Can you explain why you think you would claim this credit TWICE?

Again, the credit on the 941s and the credit on Form 5884-A are for two completely different things.
