I amended my tax return in March and have not received any contact about when I'm going to receive what I am owed. I even paid to do this.

Amended tax returns can take the IRS over 5 months or longer before they are processed.

Go to this IRS website for the status of an amended tax return - https://www.irs.gov/filing/wheres-my-amended-return

Amended returns are taking longer . Like 6 months or more. Did you wait to amend until the original return was done processing and you got the first refund or paid the tax due?

After 3 weeks you can track it here, https://www.irs.gov/filing/individuals/amended-returns-form-1040-x-/wheres-my-amended-return-1

I did not amend the return until I received my full refund. I have tried to track the amended return on the IRS website and it says I cannot access the page even using mobile data.

What happens when you go to this IRS website - https://www.irs.gov/filing/wheres-my-amended-return

And then click on the Blue button labeled Amended Return Status

IRS has been running behind processing Amended Returns. My daughter's 2020 Amended Return was received by IRS on August 4, 2021 and was just processed on May 13, 2022. That is 40 weeks and 2 days! This is double the 20 weeks that IRS indicates. It also took well over the 3 weeks IRS indicates for it to show up as being received on the Where's My Amended Return website.
