    The IRS will not email you. It is likely spam or phishing.

     

    It might be easiest to set up an account with them. You can also use https://www.irs.gov/wheres-my-refund to look at the processing of your original return and there is also a Where's My Amended Return.

    Can you provide more information? Your original file was accepted but your amendment was rejected?

     

    Who do you have to answer back to by the 20th?
