@Noltionj26 Directly above your question there is a reply that explains the backlogged IRS is taking a very long time to process mailed returns. Return to the thread and scroll up to read. As for calling the IRS---they answer only a small percent of the calls made to them, and will be very unlikely to be able to tell you anything about an envelope that may still be sitting in a pile of unopened mail.
If you want to try calling them:
To call the IRS:IRS: 800-829-1040 hours 7 AM - 7 PM local time Mon-Fri
Listen to each menu before making the selection.
First choose your language. Press 1 for English.
Then do NOT choose the first choice re: "Refund", or it will send you to an automated phone line.
Instead, press 2 for "personal income tax".
Then press 1 for "form, tax history, or payment".
Then press 3 "for all other questions."
Then press 2 "for all other questions." It should then transfer you to an agent.
