After you file

If you mailed an amended tax return in February, you can expect it to be a considerable amount of time before your additional refund is processed, unfortunately.

 

An amended return in typical processing times takes 12-16 weeks.  However, the IRS stopped processing all paper filed returns, including amended returns, in early March.  In some areas, processing is slowly resuming as IRS workers return to offices but it is not yet known how long it will take the IRS to catch-up on processing.
