I still have not received the unemployment tax refund the IRS was sending out in May, should I file an amendment?

I got 2 emails from turbo tax about it but none recently. This is the last week of May so I was concerned there might be something wrong on my end.

No, do not amend your tax return.

The IRS is sending the tax refunds for the unemployment compensation exclusion starting in May and throughout the summer.

Go to this IRS website for information - https://www.irs.gov/newsroom/irs-begins-correcting-tax-returns-for-unemployment-compensation-income-exclusion-periodic-payments-to-be-made-may-through-summer
