After you file

Amended returns typically take about 4 months to process after you mail them.  If mailed at the end of July, you should probably receive it in November-December.

 

It is suggested that it be mailed certified with return receipt (or other tracking service) to verify that the IRS receives it -  you can check the status here  but allow 3 weeks after mailing.
