Got Code 746 for 2023 Return but Still Waiting on 2022 Amended Refund - Filed in November

Wow, thx for breaking it down so clearly! Was trying to figure this out for my mom's amended return too. She filed hers in Oct and still waiting. Def gonna share this w/ her!

This is helpful but I'm still confused about a few things: • Does "processed" mean they've approved the changes? • Is there a way to see if they adjusted the amount? • Do they send a letter before the refund? • What's the next status after "processed"? Frustrating that it's so unclear what stage we're actually in.

I see the 746 code mentioned but what exactly does that mean for the current year return? Is there any connection between how they process your current year and amended returns from previous years? I've heard they sometimes hold current year refunds if you have an amended return in process.

The interplay between IRTF and IRTF-AM processing pipelines is important here. When an amended return shows as processed, it's completed the substantiation phase but may still be queued in the disbursement system. Your 746 code indicates a refund hold was released on your current year return, which operates on an entirely separate processing track from your 1040-X.

Is that service really accurate though? I'm hesitant to use another tool when the IRS information is already so confusing. Did it actually predict your timeline correctly or just give general information you could find elsewhere?

Does taxr.ai work specifically for amended return transcripts? I've been trying to decode my transcript but the amended section looks completely different from regular transcripts. Are there specific codes I should be looking for that would indicate when my refund might be issued?

I've been staring at my transcript trying to make sense of it for weeks! Does this tool explain the difference between TC 971 and TC 290 codes? And maybe even throw in a joke about how the IRS makes everything as clear as mud? 😂 Seriously though, do you remember if it helped specifically with amended return timelines?

I wonder if this is really any different than just calling the IRS directly? Couldn't you accomplish the same thing by calling early in the morning when their lines first open, or is there something I'm missing about how this service actually works compared to standard methods?

I called the IRS on April 2nd at exactly 7:00am ET using the regular number and still waited 1 hour and 47 minutes. The amended return department has different hours (8:00am-6:00pm) and different staffing levels than the regular customer service line. This service likely connects you to the right department directly.

Thanks for sharing your experience. That's actually really helpful to know. Did the agent tell you why your amended return was held up for so long? Was there something specific they had to fix, or was it just stuck in the queue?

I had almost the exact same experience! My amended return from 2021 sat for 9 months with no movement. I spent hours on hold over multiple days trying to reach someone. Finally used Claimyr in January, got through in about 25 minutes, and the agent found that my return was complete but had never been released for payment. Got my refund direct deposited 8 days later. Sometimes they just need a nudge to look at your file.

I've been checking the Where's My Amended Return tool, but it just says "received" even though my transcript shows it was processed. Why would there be this discrepancy between the two systems?

Is there any way to tell from the transcript if they've approved the full amount I claimed on the amended return? I'm wondering if maybe they adjusted it down and that's causing additional processing time.

My amended return shows processed too. Been waiting 5 months. Called twice. No help. Just told to wait. Is there a specific department to ask for when calling?

The WMAR tool and transcript systems pull from different databases that don't always sync in real-time. Have you received any notices via mail? CP21B or CP25 would indicate they've completed processing and are preparing to issue a refund.
