No one can check on your amended return.  Did you mail in the 1040X form? Amended returns cannot be e-filed. You can check the status of your amended return, click on the following link

Your amended return will take up to 3 weeks after you mailed it to show up on the IRS system.
Processing it can take up to 16 weeks.

@Eyl Sorry---you are going to be waiting for a longer time.

Even during “normal” times it takes about four months for the IRS to process an amended return.  During the pandemic and due to the severe backlog at the IRS it is taking much longer—six to nine months or more for many amended returns.  Do not expect quick results from amending.  When the IRS issues a refund for an amended return it will be by check.  They do not make direct deposits for refunds for amended returns.  You can watch for information here:
