1040x owe payment

Hi everyone,

 

I mailed my 1040x along with a check (owed payments) via USPS certified mail on Jul 9. I just noticed the check has been cleared through my bank transactions. However, IRS still does not provide any status on my 1040x when I checked. Is it normal to have the check cleared before records are shown on the IRS account? I'm afraid my documents and check are in the wrong hands. If anyone has insight on this, please please let me know!

 

Thank you,

Michelle

Not a surprise ... when the envelope was opened the payment went in one direction and is cashed right away ... and the return in another to a department to wait it's turn of being processed. Processing of amended returns will probably take 4-6 months so be patient.
