Amendment, but the main question is that I got a referral bonus from my employer by their mistake. I paid 400$ in taxes on a 1k bonus, then they took the entire 1,000$ back. I never got the 400$ in taxes I paid back on my return. How do I amend that?

That is not an amendment issue. You will have to work with the company.

You must confirm that the $400 was credited to you on your W-2, and that it's still included.

If the $400 is not on the W-2, the company owes you that money.

If it is on the W-2 you should get it back in your tax refund.

Then make sure the $1000 is not included on the W-2.
