When will the 1040x be available for 2021 taxes?

An amended return, Form 1040-X, can only be printed and mailed to the IRS if the original tax return was not e-filed. The IRS will take up to 16 weeks or longer to process an amended tax return.

Before starting to amend the tax return, wait for the tax refund to be received or the taxes due to be paid and processed by the IRS.

I know that it can only be mailed. I've already received my refund. I just need to know when I can fill out and send the 1040x. I kept hearing mid March but I'm still only seeing it for 2019 and 2020 taxes and not 2021.
