I efiled an amended federal 2020 r
eturn in the beginning of April 2021 for three reasons: (1) a missed W2, (2) $10,800 Unemployment Tax credit, and (3) a missed Education
Credit. According to "where's my amended return," the amended return has been
received, adjusted and completed. However, the correspondence and refund that I received is only for the
UnemploymentTax Credit. They made no adjustments for the missed W2 or the missed Education
Credit. These two add up to about a $1,000 refund. I'm not sure what I
shoulddo next. Wait? or File another
amendedreturn?
WAIT----do not jump the gun. It has been taking the IRS about six months to process amended returns--so it would be kind of surprising if they are really done with an amended return you sent in April. (And by the way---the amount of unemployment not subject to federal tax is $10, 200 ) Wait until you actually receive the refund. When the IRS sends a refund for an amended return they send a check via first class mail to the address on your tax return.
