An amended (Form 1040X) cannot be e-filed. You have to print it, sign it, and file it by mail. If you didn't mail it, you didn't file it.

It takes the IRS up to 16 weeks to process an amended return. You can't check the status on the IRS web site until about 3 weeks after you mail it.  Check the status at the following link on the IRS web site.

Where's My Amended Return?

The only way to file an amended tax return is to prepare a 1040X and print, sign. and mail it.  If you did something else, like try to e-file a change, the changes were NOT TRANSMITTED.

You can amend a tax return after it has been fully processed and you have received your refund.  You must work from your return exactly as it was when you first filed it. If you changed anything, change it back to the way it was when you originally filed it, before you follow the steps to amend. Follow the TT instructions to amend a tax return:
