Should I try to amend my taxes since every time I go to track my return it says it's unable to find them?

No that is not a reason to amend your tax return.  You only amend a tax return that has been fully processed with a mistake or that has missing information on it.  Do NOT click on anything that says amend or you will just mess it up.

First, check to see if your return was accepted:

IF it was accepted, then when you are trying to track it on the IRS site, make sure you are using the correct refund amount.

Sometimes people get confused by the “summary” given by TurboTax and use the wrong amount for the federal refund.  Make sure you are only using the federal refund amount, and not an amount that combined your federal and state refunds.

Your federal refund amount is on line 20a of your Form 1040

If it turns out that your return was rejected, post back for further help.  Or does it say "Ready to Mail" in your online account?
