Get your taxes done using TurboTax

Your amended return  can take up to 20 weeks or more for the IRS to fully process, and until it’s finalized, your son’s SSN still shows as claimed. Your son has two options: wait and re-file electronically later, or print, sign, and mail his return now, which the IRS will manually review and override once they see your amendment.

 

The IRS confirms amended returns take time to update dependency records, so mailing is usually the fastest workaround for refunds.
