Question

I had to mail my return in this year, it's been 2 weeks and yesterday it showed received on wmr. How long does it take to be approved?

I had to mail my federal return this year. I put tracking on it so i know it got to the IRS on Feb 9th 2017. Yesterday exactly 2 weeks after my taxes got to the irs i checked wmr and it says received. How long will it take to be approved? Will it be longer because I had to mail my return this year instead of efile? I'm getting it direct deposit so i at least don't have to wait on a check!

I sent in my return 2.22 and got tracking so they receive it on 2.23, this morning it shows as received it’s says (We have received your tax return and it’s beign processed) hope they process it fast. I just received last years federal tax return after a whole year of them giving me every excuse they had and I only had to verify my identity in person.
