It takes MONTHS for the IRS to process an amended return. Even in normal times it takes about four months, and now it is taking much longer. As stated previously--you have three years from the filing deadline to submit an amended return. You are not subject to the July 15 deadline for that 1040X. And...anything the IRS received before that deadline--including a "regular" mailed return--is timely if it was postmarked by the deadline.
You are just in for a very long wait for the return to be processed.
