If the IRS doesn't show your extension request despite filing and paying on 4/14, it could be due to processing delays. The IRS updates taxpayer balances no more than once every 24 hours, usually overnight. Payments may take 1 to 3 weeks to appear in your payment history.

Next steps:
1. Keep your payment confirmation and extension filing proof.
2. Review your IRS account transcripts for your record of account and filing status. This shows detailed information including payments posted and extensions accepted.

Delays are common, but continue monitoring your IRS account transcripts for the most current status of your extension and payment.
