Level 15

Any tax refund from an amended tax return is only sent to you by the IRS as a check in the mail to the address on the amended tax return which you mailed to the IRS.

Level 2

Please answer the person's question. Ameding the prior year tax return there is a bug where it is a paper filing but you will need to change the refund method to check or you will be in an endless loop.

It was answered. A 1040X does not have a refund option. The IRS always mails a check for amended returns.
