Will I receive my amended return?

[WhatMeWorry]

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.

I also just had an amendment that was submitted in May, 2021 processed on May 13th of this year.

So at least we know how far behind the IRS is on amendments - more like 9-12 months currently

I have tried recommended IRS site  States I have no authorization to access

that's unreasonable especially with everything going on I did my 2022 taxes nothing older than that and I'm expecting irs too do their job if I owed money they would exhaust every effort too receive what is owed

Unfortunately, Congress keeps adding to the IRS workload, but doesn't give them any more money to fund them.  And the IRS is still trying to catch up on millions of paper filings and mail that were left untouched during a multi-month COVID lockdown. 

Feel free to contact your Congressional Rep with your thoughts.
