After you file

@Cookie2874 We need to know what you did to file a 2018 return.  If you used the current online program that was a really big mistake.  The online program is only for 2019.  What program did you use to prepare that 2018 return--and how did you file it?

 

The only way you could have done that correctly would have been to use desktop 2018 software and then you had to print, sign and mail 2018.  Is that what you did?  If so, the IRS has not been opening mailed returns for several months--they have been piling up in trailers.  They are finally just getting started on opening the huge backlog of mailed returns.  The IRS refund site only shows information for 2019 returns, so you are never going to see anything on there about your 2018 return.

 

Explain what you did--you might have some mistakes to fix.
