I filed my amended 2024 tax return in July 2025. It is now January 2026 and I never received my refund. What should I do next?

The amended return is based on having to correct a K-1.

Waiting patiently is best. If you need the refund or feel too much time has passed, contact the taxpayer advocate service. Taxpayer Advocate | Internal Revenue Service
or call 877-777-4778.

Do not expect quick results from amending. It can take four months or more for the IRS to process an amended return. There was a government shutdown during the time the IRS has had your amended return, so you might just be experiencing an extra delay.
