Hello,
I prepared my 2022 Federal and State tax returns on TurboTax in April 2023. I borrowed my sister's laptop where the TT software had been downloaded. Due to no free electronic filing being available and I can't afford to pay to efile, I printed both returns and mailed them. Due to not knowing how mush postage to put on them, I drove them to the post office on April 14, 2023. They were weighed and posted with an April 14, 2023 date. I witnessed this by the postal worker.
My state refund has been received, but not the federal refund.
I have been attempting to check up on the status quarterly. Using the IRS website and providing the requested info to check up on a refund has always provided "RETURN NOT FOUND". There are no phone numbers to call, and no other options to continue to locate my return and the status. Where do I turn from here? It appears that my return has been lost. I can certainly mail a copy, but this would give the appearance that I did not file on time and be assessed a late penalty.
Where do I go to from here?
Thanks

There is no late penalty if you do not owe or are getting a refund. Print another copy of the return and mail it to the IRS. Print, sign and date it in ink, and mail it using certified mail so you will know it was received.
