After filing the Paper Tax returns, if you have not received anything from IRS until now, what is the next step? IRS office visit is not available to verify the status

When did you mail it?  Just keep waiting.  Mailed returns are taking a lot longer this year.  Like more than 6 months.

 

 You are not alone. Millions are still waiting. Turbo Tax only gives you an estimated date. The IRS usually pays most refunds within 21 days. But these are not normal times. This year is taking the IRS longer to send the refunds. There are millions more people filing returns to get the Stimulus payment.
