Amended returns can take up to 16 weeks to be processed once they receive it, after you have mailed it to them. Once you mail an amended return, it can take up to 3 weeks before it shows up in the IRS's system. After about 3 weeks, you can go here Where’s My Amended Return? to keep checking the status of it.  

Once you have successfully e-filed or mailed your return, the IRS and/or your state handles the processing and your refund. TurboTax never handles your processing or refund. You can call the IRS tax refund hotline at 800-829-4477, Monday - Friday, 7:00 a.m. to 11:30 p.m. Or, call the 24-hour ­assistance number at 800-829-1040 and have them take a look but we can't say for sure how long they will take on your return since it can take up to 16 weeks.

Did you amend the return? And if so, did you print and mail it?
