Amended Return Timeline: How long until IRS accepts amendment?

Tax pro here - amended returns typically take 16 weeks minimum to process, but lately I've been seeing 20+ weeks. The IRS is still catching up from covid backlog, so patience is key. You can start checking Where's My Amended Return tool after about 3 weeks to see if it's been received.

Hey! I found this tool called taxr.ai that helped me track my amended return status. It costs $4.99 but its worth it - gives you way more detail than the IRS website. Really helped me understand what was happening with my amendment.

in the same boat rn. filed my amendment in october and still crickets 🦗

Make sure you keep copies of EVERYTHING. The IRS lost my amendment twice last year smh

Check your transcripts every week. Sometimes they update there before the Where's My Amended Return tool shows anything
