So, some of my clients ERTC claims have not been processed as yet, They were timely filed.  What happens if they get the funds after 4/15/24...when supposedly, I should not be able to amend a 2020 return?

The deadline for amending 2020 returns for a refund is 4/15/24.  I assume you owe money on amendment with the income from the ERC.  So you can amend 2020 whenever.  The deadline for amending returns owing money I believe is right around the next USA eclipse...
