Can the IRS amend your return without you filing to?

I amended my return in April everything was completed in July. Now in September on my transcript it shows my return is being amended again???

Is it possible that you had some of the changes that the IRS was correcting themselves automatically ?   If so they processed the original return and then the changes  and are just now getting to the amended return since they would not have addressed your amendment until they completed their work first.

The IRS is behind on millions of tax returns.

It should not be surprising that the dates in your transcript reflect that.

What makes you think that your return is being amended again? Was there a 290 or 291 on the transcript?
