how long does it take for refund from amended taxes
That's another reason to file ASAP. 8-12 weeks, and if IRS gets too busy then it could take 16 weeks. Amended Tax Refunds are mailed to your home address. Call IRS at 1-800-829-1040 6 weeks after filiing the amended tax return to find out the status. Since amended tax returns are only allowed to be mailed to the IRS, not E-filed, this is why it takes so long to receive the refunds.
