Original return was filed and accepted by the IRS and the state of California on August 19, 2022, the return showed a refund of $10,000 we requested the refund to be applied to 2022 ES. Tax payment then we realized that the tax return must be amended for X reason  ( by the way Pro Series software does not support 1040 superseding return).
Q: can I amend the return Right away or I have to wait until the Original Return is Processed?

Q: I already prepared the 1040-X a head of time, the refund was decreased to 8,000.00, the 1040-X shows a balance due of $2,000 while we did not receive the original refund because it was Applied to 2022 ES. Tax Payment. And the only way to get red of that balance due is: to indicate on 1040-X  that the refund as shown on original return is 0.00.
any idea guys how to deal with this crap?

The IRS Already have the $2,000 because when I amend the return, the applied amount to next estimated tax payment will be also changed from $10,000 to $8,000

It doesn't work like that on an amended return. If they file the 1040x without paying, IRS may offset the $10,000 applied to 2022 from the original return.
