After you file

You should never amend a return until your original return has been accepted and fully processed.  The original return and amended return are processed separately from each other.  An amended return can take over 6 months to be processed.

 

You can check on the status of your Amended return on the IRS website Where's My Amended return. Once that is processed, the IRS (& State) will see you paid the amount on your original return.

If you are still having problems you would need to contact the IRS (and your State if amended a State return),  to have them help with your amended return.
