I mailed my tax return for 2017. My return included a check for the taxes I owed. In June the check had not cleared, but all the IRS could tell me was that my return had just been received ( I mailed it in April ).
Now in September, I received notice that "payment was not received", so I owe a fine plus interest. They can't tell me if they ever received the check or not.
Do I have any standing to have this reviewed or do I just pay the fine?
Thanks
