New client needs 2019 amended as 1099 received after filed. Federal refund/amount due does not change, but state does. Do I still have to amend the federal?

I wouldn't amend the federal UNLESS the reason the federal refund/amount due is because the increase in income is covered by an increase in credits to the liability.     ie:   original return had an energy credit that wiped out the federal tax liability with excess energy credit carried forward     and the revised return has same but less of a energy credit carry forward

If the reason the federal return doesn't change is because income is still below the standard deduction then I wouldn't
