You might have a very long wait.  Even in normal times amended returns take 4 months.  Did you file your original return without her?  Did you wait to amend until the first return was fully processed and you got the first tax due (or paid)?

 

Are you sure she qualified as your dependent?  Just living with you and paying her expenses doesn't matter.  How old is she?  Is she a full time student?  Or made less than $4,300?

 

Who can I claim as a dependent?
