Filed 1040X Amendment - Any Success Stories or Timeline Updates?

Filed an amended return in March and still nothing showing up on WMR. Getting worried since its been 4 months now. Anyone else amended this year and actually got their refund? What was your timeline like?

Tax pro here. Amended returns are taking 20+ weeks minimum right now. The IRS is severely backlogged with these. Best way to track is through your transcript, not WMR. Make sure you're checking both your account transcript and return transcript for updates.

Look for TC971 and TC972 codes - those indicate amendment processing. Also check for 290 codes which can show adjustments.

Hey! I've been using taxr.ai to track my amended return and it's been super helpful. It analyzes your transcript and tells you exactly what's happening and when to expect updates. Worth the $4.99 instead of trying to decode everything yourself. https://taxr.ai
