Electronic Payment vs Amend return paper

[9greenshauntaya]

I did an amend return before I did my electronic return. My amend return I mailed it but the address on my profile is different than now so I won’t be able to receive it . So I did an electronic return and it got accepted and it gave me an est time on when I get my refund. I’m just wondering will I get my electronic return instead of my mailed return if I have no access to it ?

Please explain in more detail what you did ---with what tax year(s) -- and when.  It makes no sense to send in an amended return before filing an original return.   If you really did things backwards like that, the IRS will be confused and there may be a long delay before you ever receive a refund.  You are supposed to file your original return first--whether by e-file or regular mail--wait for the IRS to fully process the return, and then---if you left out information or need to correct something, send in a Form 1040X to amend the original return.  Amended returns take four months or more to be processed.   

And...on at least one of the returns you used an incorrect address?    You will need to send a change of address to the IRS so that they have your correct mailing address.

I wanted to start over my taxes on turbo tax . It wasn’t letting me do that . So I did an amend return to cancel my return which is still pending. During that process I grew impatient and I filed another return but instead I did it electronically. IRS accepted the return and I got an est time on getting that return. Everything they need for the amend return , I already did it for the electronic return . Will I be getting my electronic return instead of this amend return . I do not want.

Your impatience may cause you to have a long delay and perhaps go under review.    We cannot say which return the IRS will process or when you will receive a refund, or which refund you will receive.  Only the IRS is in control; only the IRS can give you any information.

Once your federal return has been accepted by the IRS, only the IRS has any control.  TurboTax does not receive any updates from the IRS. Your ONLY source of information about your refund now is the IRS.

You need your filing status, your Social Security number and the exact amount  (line 35a of your 2024 Form 1040) of your federal refund to track your Federal refund:

Call the IRS: 1-800-829-1040 hours 7 AM - 7 PM local time Monday-Friday
When calling the IRS do NOT choose the first option re: "Refund", or it will send you to an automated phone line.
So after first choosing your language, then do NOT choose Option 1 (refund info). Choose option 2 for "personal income tax" instead.
Then press 1 for "form, tax history, or payment".
Then press 3 "for all other questions."
Then press 2 "for all other questions."
- When it asks you to enter your SSN or EIN to access your account information, don't enter anything.
- After it asks twice, you will get another menu.

Press 2 for personal or individual tax questions.
Then press 3 for all other inquiries
It should then transfer you to an agent.

It is still not clear whether you even used the correct form---1040X-- to amend your tax return.

Do not expect quick results from amending. It can take four months or more for the IRS to process an amended return.
