The IRS wait time for an amended return is 16-18 weeks in normal years. Currently the wait time is 6 to 12 months for a federal amended tax return.

Go to this IRS website for the status of an amended tax return - https://www.irs.gov/filing/wheres-my-amended-return

Irs website states I should have received something in the mail on 12/30/2021. I haven't so I need to call them.

@aysaez TurboTax gets no information after you file your tax return, so no one at TT knows about your refund. If you want to call the IRS:

To call the IRS:IRS: 800-829-1040 hours 7 AM - 7 PM local time Mon-Fri

Listen to each menu before making the selection.

First choose your language. Press 1 for English.

Then do NOT choose the first choice re: "Refund", or it will send you to an automated phone line.

Instead, press 2 for "personal income tax".

Then press 1 for "form, tax history, or payment".

Then press 3 "for all other questions."

Then press 2 "for all other questions." It should then transfer you to an agent.
