Thank you so much SusanY1
As per your suggestion, I did not send another copy. I opened the case with USPS. USPS called yesterday suggesting that I continue to wait even after April 15th. They said that USPS does not have control nor can confirm whether the package is lost or whether the delay is to scanning which they said is done by IRS.
Please confirm if you suggest sending form 8892 https://www.irs.gov/pub/irs-pdf/f8892.pdf even though I don't own any gift tax and the purpose of filing 709 is only to declare the gifts made.
if so, I understand from the instructions that this form 8892 also needs to be sent via mail (not online submission) and to the same address. I guess you meant send it via first class mail this time or may be UPS /Fedex?
Thanks again!
File Form 8892 at the following address.
