I wrote a TT community message about this on January 31, 2022 and also in July.
It is now almost a year later, in December 2022, and almost 2 years (!) for early
filers of 2020 returns. A level-15 TT expert posited then
that IRS would process these types of things (this is not processing of paper,
just an electronic filing!) within 90-120 days or so.
Still no correspondence from IRS -- time to file an amended return yet?
If IRS says nothing, there will be a feedback loop of folks filing amended returns
(via error-prone paper, since e-filing of amended returns is not possible as far
as I can discern) then having the backlog increase even further.
Yikes -- maybe their cognizant IT folks have all quit in frustration?
