IRS rejected 2020 return - no 2019 return on file????

I filed electronically through TurboTax and it was rejected as  2019 AGI did not match their records.

Tried again as I know the AGI was correct. 

Turns out they have no record of 2019 being filed; however they managed to cash my check! I have ample documentation ( sent  return and payment: certified AND with return receipt and signature required)  that my return was received by them last year.

 

I am due an $1800 refund.

I have since mailed in my 2020 return  - again with tracking and know they have gotten it.  

 

Last week I received the transcripts that show they cashed my check last year, but no return on file.

 

HELP! Any advice on how to get them to see/ find 2019 returns?

do I refile for 2019?

Are there complications in doing so - refiling - particularly now that I have submitted my 2020 return 3x (2x electronically through TT and 1x physically/mailed.
