No, it shouldn't take longer than six weeks to show on the IRS website. 

 

Did you e-file the amended return, or mail it?

 

If you e-filed it, was it accepted?

E filed but I assume it hasent been accepted. Did receive original return. Had to add go back and add to it. That was 2/15

Yes, it can take a few weeks for the amended return to process.  Just be patient because it is the height of filing season and processing is at its peak.

ACCEPTED should come back right away, and it will appear shortly on "Where's my Amended Return?" page.

 

My relatives and I have filed but not received the ACCEPTED message; it is lost somehow. This is unusual.

IRS says:

IRS is three months behind on processing amended tax returns.
