How to check amended return amount before receiving check?

Filed an amended return and want to know the amount before getting the check. Can anyone tell me where I can find the refund amount? Is there somewhere on the transcript that shows this?

The amount should show up on your account transcript under Code 291 (amended return adjustment) or 846 (refund issued). You can grab your transcript from the IRS website or call them to request one.

Look for those codes in the transactions section. The amount will be listed right next to them.

100% legit! It breaks down everything - pending amounts, processing status, even estimated deposit dates. Best 5 bucks I ever spent
