2021 return filed waiting for 2020 amended- refund?

[hnirving]

Hello, I just filed electronically my 2021 return but I'm waiting for my 2020 amended return to be processed still. Will this hold up my refund from being processed for 2021? (My 2020 amended was received June 15, 2021)

No, your 2020 amended return will not hold up your 2021 refund.

Thank you!

I owed for 2020 but with my amended return I'm now owed a refund. This still won't affect the 2021 return?

No, there shouldn't be any effect.  Your 2021 return should process normally.
