How can I view my amended tax return

I understand delays because of employee shortage and covid, but checking on amended federal return status is ridiculous. 1) The link takes you to Official Government" site. 2) The IRS site says about amended returns that it may take 16 weeks, but they are running late and it could take 20 weeks. Well, it's been 6 months and 1 week for me and I only know it was accepted and being processed according to Turbotax. Here I am at 27 weeks, and IRS has the wrong status link?  WTH?  If I owed them money, they'd be here asap and confiscating everything I own.

Even during “normal” times it takes about four months for the IRS to process an amended return.  During the pandemic and due to the severe backlog at the IRS it is taking much longer—six to nine  months or more for many amended returns.  Do not expect quick results from amending.  When the IRS issues a refund for an amended return it will be by check.  They do not make direct deposits for refunds for amended returns.  You can watch for information here:

I'm reading here my 2021 amended form was accepted March 10, 2022. It's October 13th. Hello?  There is no way to find out from IRS. The phone number is useless. It only tells me what already know. It was accepted, but where is my money? The link on their site directs you to a private government page. So, how do I know when I'll get it? I don't  remember adding my routing and account numbers on the amended return. What's the story?  Is it being mailed? Is it being direct deposited?  It's 7 months. No info. Come on. Seven months. If I was pregnant, I'd be almost full-term.  WTH?  Pathetic.  I am tempted to file it again. Did the check get lost in the mail?  Is it being direct deposited?  What's up?  Crystal balls don't work.  We need answers.

Yes. I entered the "government only" button. Okay, so they are issued by check. I think it's a coincidence that the link shows it was "adjusted" today, hmm, after I clicked on the link?  What a coincidence. I'm looking for my money and I had to wake them up? Now, they say it will take 3 more weeks to explain the adjustment. It was accepted 7 months ago. What's to adjust? Pathetic.  I want to be advised or alerted when it's been processed and then mailed. The post office is another laugh in getting our mail in the right mailbox. 

The IRS is notorious for keeping us in the dark. They'd be at our doorstep in 24 hours for money we owe them.

And.....did you click that big blue rectangle that says "OK" so that you could enter your Social Security number, etc. on the next screen that appears to find out about your amended return?

[IRS Taxpaper hostage]

Yes, I did.  Not much to see. "Adjusted" today. Adjusted. Accepted in March, adjusted today. Three more weeks to wait to find out why.  Either accepted or not. WTH?  Remember to click on the question mark. So, " An adjustment may result in a refund, balance due, or no tax change."  I expect a refund if I am waiting 7 months after it was accepted.  IRS. Some things never change.

@IRS Taxpaper hostage There is no question as to whether the amended return was accepted, since you can clearly see that the IRS has it.   "Accepted" only means that they have it for processing.   Sorry---you will have to rely on the IRS site for information.   TurboTax cannot speed up the IRS for you.   You are among millions who are waiting for amended returns to be processed.

[IRS Taxpaper hostage]

Yes, among millions when standard tax season has been over for months.  At least the status could be more accurate. If they need more info or correction, it could go into the next tax season. I'll just send it again. I don't care.

@IRS Taxpaper hostage When the IRS wants/needs more information from you they request it by sending you a letter.   If they have not done that, then they do not require more information.   Sorry---we understand your frustration, but sending another amended return will not speed things up--in fact it might slow them down more.
