Your expectations of what would happen if you amend are unrealistic. It takes the IRS about six months to process an amended return. As has been explained to you already, there are a LOT of people (who used all kinds of tax preparation software programs) who answered the recovery rebate credit questions incorrectly. The IRS does not want the added burden of an amended return from you for this. They are cross checking for the EIP payments and they will adjust your refund---even it is delayed a bit by the process.
You are among millions of people who are experiencing a delay in receiving your 2020 refund.
