Esignature for amended returns

Hi All,

I am trying to amend a personal tax return for one of my clients for 2023 and he signature docs that is being generated shows the full refund amount instead of showing only the additional refund. Does someone know how to fix this

The 8879 reflects the total tax return being filed, not just the amendment/change. So the 8879 is correct. The 1040-X as part of the total tax return identifies what the taxpayer has already received vs what the taxpayer has yet to receive.
