Amended federal returns

[Michie]

Does anybody know how to check on amended federal returns? I have an elderly relative who cannot remember if he sent it in or not Called the main 800 number but there was not a menu option

 

[POB14]

From the IRS website:

How can I check the status of my amended return?

You will need to contact our assistance line at (800) 829-1040 to receive information on the processing of your amended return. Amended/corrected returns are processed as quickly as possible. However, it could take 8 to 12 weeks to process an amended return.
