After you file

The IRS is way behind in processing tax returns. They are currently not processing any mailed returns and haven't been for some time. They have not said when they will resume processing them. 

 

Since it has been so long, you may be able to get help from the Taxpayer Advocate Service: https://www.irs.gov/taxpayer-advocate

 

You should continue to track the status using the IRS tracking web site:
