When will I get a refund after filing my amended returns?

[rjs · Accepted solution]

It normally takes the IRS up to 16 weeks to process an amended return. However, the IRS is currently not processing tax return that are filed by mail, including amended returns, because of the Covid-19 pandemic. When they start to process them again they will have reduced staff and a big backlog, so it will be a long time before your amended return is processed and you get the refund.
