Based on previous experiences, how long does it usually take to get to the adjusted bar on the refund tool once an amended return has been received by the IRS???

You should see a status of some type on the amended return web site in about 3 weeks from when you printed and mailed the amended return. It takes about 16 weeks for the return to be completely processed. Here is a link to the amended return web site: http://www.irs.gov/Filing/Individuals/Amended-Returns-(Form-1040-X)/Wheres-My-Amended-Return-1

IRS received my amended return on 03/01/19 I updated to the adjusted bar on 03/29/19. I received a letter from the IRS on 04/08/19 stating the changes made to my amended return and to please allow an additional 2-3 weeks to receive a paper check. Hope this helps 🙂

@crystalwatson110 so how long would you say it took you to get your amended return and what changed in your return did it say like the amount? Because I'm going threw the same thing right now I sent my amended return on 3/22/19 got an update on the website on 4/12/19 now I'm waiting.

[crystalwatson110]

Well I am currently still waiting to receive my refund, the letter I received stated the adjusted made to my 2018 wages due to an error on my original 2018 return and it states the difference in the amounts I am receiving and it states to wait 2-3 weeks for a paper check in the mail.

My (2) amendments were sent in on 4/1/19, shows received on 4/15/19 and has not reached the adjusted stage yet for either year. I am waiting for amendments for two years due to an error in my company's reporting. So now on week 7....

[steve3583]

I got an advocate she told me to do amendment , they received it on 4/15/19 and i called the advocate line yesterday and was told that it was adjusted on the 24th and to wait 2 weeks

So it only takes a month and a half? Not 16 weeks?
