@Stine007 It is not possible to e-file a 2019 1040X. Only a 2021 1040X can be e-filed. It has to be filed by mail. Print, sign and mail it. Do not expect quick results. It would be a good idea to use certified mail so you will get a receipt and confirmation that it was received.
Even during “normal” times it takes about four months for the IRS to process an amended return. During the pandemic and due to the severe backlog at the IRS it is taking much longer—six months or more for many amended returns. Do not expect quick results from amending. When the IRS issues a refund for an amended return it will be by check. They do not make direct deposits for refunds for amended returns. You can watch for information here:
