    DO NOT file an amended return. The IRS will be sending out the refunds over the next several months. For details see the following IRS announcements.

    No, absolutely do not amend the return. The IRS is working on computing the returns with unemployment on them and this might take the rest of the summer to do but they do not want you to send in an amendment. All that will do is delay things further.
