@dano256 - given the backlogs, if you paper filed in April, chances are they have it but have not gotten to it yet.
There is NO WAY the rep could have looked for it as these returns are literally sitting in boxes waiting to be processed
The IRS states on their webstite that they have only completed processing returns that have no errors in them through March.....
We are opening mail within normal time frames, and we’ve processed all paper and electronic individual returns in the order received if they were received prior to April 2022 and the return had no errors or did not require further review.
"opening the mail" only means they are looking for the checks inside the envelopes! They are not processing the return upon receipt.
I'll bet your return from April is nearing the top of the pile currently,
