After you file

@Lilmama56    As stated already---since we have no way to see your tax return, it is impossible to say whether you are going to receive any additional refund based on the amended return ---the Form 1040X--- that you sent in.    You have apparently already received the recalculated refund for unemployment that was issued to you  automatically by the IRS.    That might be all that you get, and you may have sent in a totally unnecessary amended return.   If that is the case, the IRS will cross check and see that you already received the adjusted amount and will not send an additional refund for the amended return.

 

You are expecting to hear something about that amended return within weeks----that may be unrealistic even though the IRS says they will post something within "three weeks. "  That is the "normal" time it takes to see something on the amended return refund site.  These are NOT normal times.    It is taking the IRS six months and sometimes more to process amended returns.

 

Lower your expectations----do not expect a direct deposit and do not expect a quick check.   You just have to wait out the IRS now, and it might take months before you know what ---if anything---they are doing with the amended return.
