I was just curious on how long does it usually take to receive my tax return through mail?

It is your refund sent by check, then it can take a couple weeks once the IRS or State issues a refund date.  You would have to check the IRS website & your States website (if you have a State refund), to see if your return was fully processed & your refund was approved.

Did you e-file or print, sign and mail in your tax return?   Electronically filed returns are being processed but paper-filed returns are not being processed at this time due to the COVID situation.
