Thank you for your thoughtful response. I'm aware of the online status checking site -- that's how I know that the return status hasn't changed from "accepted" since 2/23/2023.
I also wondered if this was just some aggressive fraud prevention process that have implemented. However, in that case, I would have thought they would have sent a Refund Verification Letter or otherwise communicated why they weren't processing the return. Of course, if they think they haven't received a Form 1310, then they wouldn't have a name/address to contact, I guess.
Starting to look like e-filing a State return for a deceased taxpayer is not the right thing to do....
