hello! I sent my 2019 taxes by mail and see that my check was cashed out. does this mean my return was accepted? will they be sending a confirmation via email? i just want to make sure it wasn't cashed by anyone else

this is a bit tricky because I did not e-file, I filed by mail and I did not receive a refund, I owed taxes.

You can always call the IRS to ask them over the phone if they have received your return. They will be able to check the progress of the return as well.

You can follow the instructions here to contact the IRS.

Could you please clarify what you mean by that you see that your check was cashed out?

I paid via check in the mail and I see in my bank account that the check was cashed out of my bank but I did not receive any notice from the IRS that my returned was accepted!

You can check your e-file status here. If your return shows "Accepted" more than 24 hours ago, then you can begin to track your refund on the IRS Where’s My Federal Refund? site.

Please see the links below for more information regarding your return:
