If I mailed out my tax return, how will I get confirmation that it was received?

If you did not use some type of tracking service when the tax return was mailed to the IRS, then you will not know if the IRS received the tax return.  The IRS does not send out any type of receipt or confirmation of receiving the tax return.

If your tax return was filed with a tax refund you can check the status of the refund on this IRS website - https://www.irs.gov/refunds
