Sediments don't get deposited at the mouth of the Amazon river mouth of Amazon river because this Sediment transportation is dynamic and got deposited deep inside the river.
During the rising water period, the level of sediment concentration automatically increases.
The main reason for this sediment deposition is due to the erosion in the Andes mountains.

Answer:
Amazon washes off the load supplied to it from the catchment. Consequently, sediments are not deposited even at the mouth. A dense network of distributaries, which is a characteristic feature of river mouth areas, is by and large absent in the mouth region of Amazon.
