IRS site says they RECEIVED my 2019 amended return on March 3rd, 2020... RECEIVED.
I still haven't gotten anything. I also haven't been able to talk to a real person in over a month. keeps saying due to high call volume call later or next business day... every time.
at this point it's going to be next tax season already. can i just use what they're going to owe me as a tax credit on the upcoming 2020 taxes?
A federal tax refund is not entered on a federal tax return, so no you cannot enter any amount from the amended return on the 2020 tax return.
The IRS is processing millions of paper tax returns in the order they were received. Due to the pandemic and limited staffing the IRS is taking months longer then normal to process these tax returns.
Go to this IRS website for the status of a federal amended tax return - https://www.irs.gov/filing/wheres-my-amended-return
