Now we are at almost a year for 2018 and 2019 returns from the time the IRS received them. We owed money. Checks were cashed last April. Our returns STILL are not showing accepted or processed. I know they are sitting in some box in some office somewhere (IRS says they have sent some returns from busy offices to less busy offices for processing over the course of the summer). We are held up from purchasing a investment property because we can't get a loan without transcripts to prove my self employment income. They said they were shut down... so being closed 3 or 4 months puts you 8 or 9 months behind? I don't hold much hope that 2020 will be processed in a timely manner either.
