The Internal Revenue Service limits the amount of time you have to file a 1040X to the later of three years from the date you file the original tax return, or two years from the time you pay the tax for that year.
How long does IRS have to pay a refund on an amended return? I have contacted the National Tax Payers Advocate and received different answers. The problem is that it has been five months now since I filed an amended return for a refund and we have had no communication from the IRS. It just sits in examination for review since April, 22, 2008 with no activity or release for payment.
