Injured Spouse form Help

So I forgot to do the injured spouse form when I did my taxes, and they took all my money for my husband's back child support. So I filled out the injured spouse form and mailed to the Kansas City MO address on February 22nd and it got to Kansas City MO on February 28th and then went in transit to next facility ever since and never updated again. So I got scared it got lost and filled out forms again but mailed to the Kentucky address which is wrong one. So what should I do? What will happen? Will it still get to right place? I'm just so nervous since first form for lost. I also faxed it to number for Kentucky to to insure it wouldn't get lost. Idk I'm stressed.

The IRS does not acknowledge the receipt of the form.  The only way to know that they received it is to use mail with tracking.

 

You will only hear from the IRS when they send the additional refund, about 14 weeks after they receive it (possibly longer this busy time of year with an understaffed IRS).

 

Mailing a 2nd form might delay things even more if both forms get into the system and have to be sorted out by hand.

I sent with tracking both times. The first one I'm assuming is lost as it says in transit for 3 weeks now on USPS, that's why I sent another form but to wrong address.

Ask the PO for a trace.

I did, they put in report and haven't heard anything back in 3 days. That's why I sent the form again but to the Kentucky address.

Where you mail to depends where you live.

Mailing to the wrong address may or may not  get to the proper place but will be delayed.

Should I mail another to the correct address just in case?
