I e-filed my Federal return and mailed a check for the amount due on 3/16/24. I also mailed my NC State return with a check included for the amount due also on 3/16/24. On 3/17/24 I mailed in the same drop box outside the post office my daughter's NC State return with a check for what she owed. Her check cleared in about 1 1/2 weeks. Both my Federal and State checks have not cleared in almost a month. I did not mail any of them certified or with delivery confirmation. Do I assume they are lost in the mail and should I e-file my state return and make my federal and state payments online and put a stop payment on the checks? Should I continue to wait? How can I verify if the state received my return? What if I e-file and make online payments and the mailed copies eventually show up?
thanks for any feedback
