So here's an interesting fact: They updated the text on the website to say "Expect 16 weeks" but the programming on the website is still set up for 12. The notice was a catch for if the processing was taking too long. I got Poltergeisted. They moved the stones but not the bodies. I appreciate your patience and will get out of your way now

First, I apologize for intruding. I know this is a professionals' forum, and I am a lay person. I filed an amended return this year for 2013, using a Form 982 to declare an insolvency exemption for the tax on my wife's disability forgiveness of student loans, and I have been checking the IRS site religiously. Today I got the following message: "Your amended return was received on April 12, 2016. However, it has not been processed. We apologize for any inconvenience. Please call 800-829-0582, extension 623, between the hours of 7 a.m. and 7 p.m., Monday through Friday. You will need a copy of your amended return." Am I going to be in trouble? Are they going to deny the amended return? Is this a boilerplate thing that happens?
