Re: Amended return ACCEPTED but still nothing

Amended return ACCEPTED but still nothing

I filed 2020 taxes in February jointly with my husband and we received our return and 3rd stimulus check right away. However, days after I amended it through turbotax since my husband has never received the first 2 stimulus checks in 2020. So I claimed that credit (1800$) specifying my request. The amended return has been accepted by IRS right away and it's been 3 weeks but no refund has been received yet. Any idea how long it takes for them to process the request they accepted?

Normally, it takes the IRS about 12 weeks to process amended tax returns however, this year, it will take even longer since the IRS has a backlog of regular income tax returns it's trying to process.

You can check the status using the Where's My Amended Return? online tool or by calling the toll-free telephone number 866-464-2050.
