Mailing tax return to the IRS Austin,TX address

I mailed my 1040 to the address using USPS: Department of the Treasury, Internal Revenue Service, Austin, TX, 73301. However, my USPS tracking info states that my return was delivered to an individual in Austin, TX, 78701.

 

This is my first time sending 1040 and I don't know if my document has reached or not.

 

Has anyone else experienced this? And was your return registered by the IRS?

Is there any way I can check if they received it?

If you are due a refund, you can check on the IRS website, Where's My Refund.

Once the IRS has received your return and starts to process your return, your information will show on the IRS website.  Just to let you know, the IRS is extremely backlogged with mailed in returns, so it can take a while the IRS to process your return.  You can also call the IRS to see if they have received your return.

I do not have any refund as I was unemployed during that time. So, the return is 0$. I just wanted to fill out the tax form for the clean record. I just wanted to know if they received it at least.

The only one that would know if your return was received is the IRS.  Try calling the Austin office.
