If receiving no status from the IRS amended return website - https://www.irs.gov/filing/wheres-my-amended-return

You will need to wait 16 weeks from the time the amended return was mailed before the IRS will talk to you about the return that was mailed. See this IRS website for amended return FAQ's - https://www.irs.gov/filing/amended-return-frequently-asked-questions

Will calling the IRS help me get my amended return processed any faster?

Calling us will not speed up the processing time of your amended return. Our phone and walk-in representatives can only research the status of your amended return 16 weeks or more after you’ve mailed it; or if Where's My Amended Return? itself has directed you to contact us.

I filed a 2019 amended return in Sept 2020. It did not post to the IRS amended status web until Feb 2021. It now shows it was received Oct 22 2020 but not yet processed. Don't know what the issue is with amended returns. Tried to call the number listed on the site, but after a standard message and a 20 minute wait, a real person person answered and provided me with her badge number. Then I was told to stay on the line a minute and was put on hold. After holding for 10 minutes the standard message was replayed and a 30 minute wait time was stated. I hung up. Just a note. Starting with 2019 taxes, an amended return can be filed online. I did that prior to mailing it in, and it was accepted by Turbotax but rejected by the IRS. No explanation was given and no number was listed to call, so I gave up on that and mailed it. Just my experience with the amended return system.

It's been 10 months since I mailed my amended return. I tracked to return and they did receive it. I check every day (IRS site where's my amended return) nothing yet. Is it because of COVID?
