Does IRS provide refund for amended return in 90 days?

I filed an amended return on April 3, 2021 using Turbo Tax.I have not received the refund yet. What should I do?

No.

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 months or much longer 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:

the current time frame for 1040-X is ten months.

There are at least 1.9 million Form 1040-X in the pipeline.

If you filed April 2021, your 1040-X should have been processed by now.

Call IRS to find out what is going on with your filing.

Have a copy of your Form 1040-X ready when you call
