@Click Sorry that you are disappointed, but that is the reality. A 2020 amended return cannot be e-filed from TurboTax. Only certain paid tax pros can still e-file an amended 2020 return---if you want to have it e-filed you can pay a tax professional to do that for you. Otherwise, your amended 2020 return will need to be printed, signed and mailed to the IRS.
Use a mailing service that will track it, such as UPS or certified mail so you will know the IRS/state received the return.
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:
