How do I amend an original return in ProSeries and prepare a 1040x. I used an incorrect SSN. Not an E-file

Find the 1040X Form, check the box for 2019,  near the bottom is page 2 Part I for Dependent information. Be sure to complete Part III - Explanation of changes.

Thank you.  I want to make sure I have done it correctly.  I see the 1040_x using the correct SSN. Question 1) Since the only correction need was the SSN, with the 1040-X not show the content in the body of the form?

Question 2)  When I previewed the amended return itself,  the incorrect SSN is still on the return.  Is that correct?  If not, what did I no wrong?

@7lastgirl  - Did you get your amended return completed?    If the only correction you need is a SSN, your 1040X will not have any $$ amounts.  I don't believe you should fill in page 2, Part I either because you didn't forget a dependent you just need to correct the SSN.   Correct the SSN in your Federal Information Worksheet,  write an explanation about incorrect number on original return, print 1040X and 1040 with the correct SSN, mail to IRS then wait and wait and wait.    Be detailed in your explanation.  I would write what SSN was on original and what SSN is correct.
