Because of the Covid-19 pandemic the IRS is currently not processing tax returns that were filed by mail. When they start to process them again they will have reduced staff and a huge backlog, so it will be quite a while before your tax return is processed.

For returns filed by mail, the IRS requests that taxpayers wait at least 6 weeks from mailing the return for a refund to be received.  That said, during all this COVID19 pandemic, it's expected that processing of mailed returns may take longer.  And, of course, if your return contains anything out of the ordinary, the return will require longer to process.

 

I mailed my personal return in early April, and still have no indication that it is processing on the IRS website.  So I'm in the same boat.

 

You can wait another couple of weeks (at least) and then use the link I'm sharing below to track your refund, if you're expecting one.
