Amended Return stuck after 20 weeks - What's next step? Need help

At this point, you should call the IRS amended return hotline at 866-464-2050. Make sure to call early morning when they first open to avoid long wait times. They can check the actual status and see if there's any holds or if they need additional information from you. Sometimes amended returns get stuck in verification queues that don't show up on the online tool.

Hey! I started using taxr.ai for my amended return situation and it was super helpful. It costs $1 but it analyzes your transcript and tells you exactly what's going on and what to do next. Way better than trying to piece everything together yourself! Here's the link: https://taxr.ai

Have you tried requesting your account transcript from the IRS website? That'll show you if there are any hold codes or issues that aren't visible in the "Where's My Amended Return" tool. I was stuck for 18 weeks and found out through my transcript that they had flagged my return for additional review. Once I knew the specific issue, I was able to call with the right information and get it resolved much faster. The transcript is free and gives you way more detail than the basic tracking tool.
