The IRS says to check back in 6 weeks (42 days) and they should have received and accepted a paper return by then.
You’ve waited 6 weeks.
I have waited 6 weeks also.
I have used both the IRS web site and the IRS app to try and verify receipt of my paper return.
Each attempt says that the data I’m entering (they ask for the anticipated return dollar amount to verify identity) is incorrect. (could not be verified)
Im entering the correct numbers. So this tells me they haven’t received? Accepted? Processed? Reconciled? my paper return yet and my account is still showing my mistaken $1 non filer return as the latest they have.
Im in the same situation as you.
Nothing to do but wait I guess.
I presume the typical 6 week processing time is longer because of COVID. How much longer? Unknowable.
