After you file

The IRS is your only source of information about your amended return.  TurboTax does not get any information at all about a return that you amended.  It takes 3-4 months for the IRS to process an amended return.  If you are getting a refund, they mail you a check.  You just have to wait--and you will be waiting for awhile if you only mailed it in early July.

 

Wait about 3 weeks from mailing a 1040X  and you can check the status of your amended return:
