How will I know if my amended tax return was received? I filed initially and one of my W2 was not listed, this was approved and processed...

when the correction was made - amend (change) return it said congratulations it was filed but the amount and tax return document section does not show it...

Your amended tax return must be filed by mail. When you mail Form 1040-X you should include the following forms:

• The new (amended) Form 1040
• Any forms or schedules that were added or changed as a result of preparing the amendment

It takes the IRS at least 2 - 3 months (and sometime up to 6 months) to process amended returns.  Also, depending on whether the changes affect your numbers, you may also be required to file an amended return with your state.  

The mailing address for your state and situation can be found at https://www.irs.gov/pub/irs-pdf/i1040x.pdf.  Look under Where to File on page 14.
