@ghaly2016 - the IRS is woefully behind on processing amendments. Assume it is a 9-12 months from the time you filed until the amendments is processed. If you on online to the iRS website, I know it says to call them, but that is just an automated line and is a waste of time. Just be patient. Here is what the IRS website statesL

Status of Processing Form 1040-X, Amended Individual Tax Return: As of July 2, 2022, we had 2 million unprocessed Forms 1040-X. We are processing these returns in the order received and are working hard to get through the inventory. The current timeframe can be more than 20 weeks instead of up to 16. Please don't file a second tax return or contact the IRS about the status of your amended return. Taxpayers should continue to check Where's My Amended Return? for the most up to date processing status available.
