If you are filing an ammended return you will nit get your refund within a week. You can track your return on this website.
https://sa.www4.irs.gov/wmar/notice;jsessionid=pE5-wnrv6YPiKs7BZtsoIO24.PPI will tell you my situation. I sent in my amended return back in the middle of April. It was processed in about 3 weeks and I got a letter saying I needed to send more information in. I over night the information back on May 6th and my status on the website was updated until May 28. The website says it can take up to 16 weeks. To track your status go to the website but truthfully dont expect your status to be updated until about 2 weeks. From there you will still have weeks before it is ameded and completed.
Hope this helps
