If I filed an amendment to my 2019 return and paid for the service, why has the IRS not acknowledge receiving it? The order # is TTWG3537291

I filed the amended return after I received my refund.

Turbo Tax will not have a status on your refund. If the IRS website says processing, this means they are working on it.

 

Please use this link to track your refund from the IRS. https://www.irs.gov/newsroom/use-the-wheres-my-refund-tool

Did you amend by preparing a Form 1040X which you printed, signed and mailed?  That is the ONLY way to amend a tax return.

 

A 1040X cannot be e-filed.  It must be printed and mailed.  It will take about 4 months for the IRS to process an amended return.  It is a good idea to use a mailing service that will track it, like UPS or certified mail, so you will know it was received.

Wait about 3 weeks from mailing and you can check the status of your amended return:
