I have mailed out my paper tax return back in June. I got the confirmation of shipment with tracking number. IRS still has not processed it. Should I resend it?

I have tried to get an answer from IRS but had no luck.  Should I resend it anyways with proof of original filed and shipment date? Is there anyone that is in similar situation?

No, do not resend the original tax return since you received confirmation that the return was received by the IRS.  Filing the same return again will further delay the processing.

The IRS is months behind processing 2020 tax return so patience is required.

 

If you are receiving a federal tax refund check the status on this IRS website - https://www.irs.gov/refunds

 

You can call the IRS and speak with an agent concerning your tax return.  Be aware that only about 10% of calls to the IRS get answered so try calling first thing in the morning.

 

Call the IRS: 1-800-829-1040 hours 7 AM - 7 PM local time Monday-Friday
When calling the IRS do NOT choose the first option re: "Refund", or it will send you to an automated phone line.
So after first choosing your language, then do NOT choose Option 1 (refund info). Choose option 2 for "personal income tax" instead.
Then press 1 for "form, tax history, or payment".
Then press 3 "for all other questions."
Then press 2 "for all other questions."
- When it asks you to enter your SSN or EIN to access your account information, don't enter anything.
- After it asks twice, you will get another menu.

Press 2 for personal or individual tax questions.
Then press 4 for all other inquiries
It should then transfer you to an agent.
