Irs Tax Credit Home Buyers

Question: Tax amendment/first time home buyers credit question?
How long does this usually take to get? We already received our refund direct deposit, but we had to make an amendment to receive the credit and it was mailed, not e-filed. Its been a little over a month since we mailed it off. I checked the IRS website but they have no record of it.
Answer: 1. The website doesn’t handle 1040x refunds. You have to call.
2. Don’t call until the 12 weeks is up.
3. This is a new credit, the IRS is bogged down in verification of claims.
Year’s end good time to look at taxes, insurance
The last few days of the year are a good time to make final preparations for tax season and can be a good time to make other financial adjustments. But the Internal Revenue Service is saying that is particularly true this year as certain end-of-December moves can pay dividends at tax time.
