I electronically filed an amended 2020 tax return 5 months ago. It was received. I called the IRS last month and they said it should be done in another 4 weeks. I called today and the IRS hotline robo voice said there are too many callers, try again another day, and disconnected me.
My amended 2020 return will affect my 2021 deductions. Deadline to file for 2021 is coming up in less than 2 months, and it takes me a couple weekends for me to do my taxes. What should I do? If I don't have it yet by mid-March should I file an extension for 2021? Or should I just assume they'll approve my amended 2020 and file for 2021 like normal?
