I am applying for an ITIN for my spouse as this is our first time filing jointly. I used a CAA for completing the form W-7 and dropped off my federal return. He mailed it to the address mentioned in the instructions :

ITIN Operation
P.O. Box 149342
Austin, TX 78714-9342

When I checked the tracking details it looks like USPS delivered it to zip code 73301. I am not sure if my package got routed due to some issue. Should I inquire with IRS or USPS as to what might have happened?

You should inquire to make sure your application got to the right place. 73301 is the address for a W-7A Application for Adoption Tax Identification Number:

Department of the Treasury

Internal Revenue Service

Austin, TX 73301-0066

Try calling 855-723-2060, ext. 244.

I had used the 78714 address on the mailing envelope and that's what is also present on my USPS receipt. I am not sure if I should check if USPS first before checking with the IRS. Do they generally get mails redirected from one location to another?

Update - I received the passport back from

the IRS and they confirmed that that W7 is being processed. It took about 90 days for me to get the supporting docs back. Nor delays due to Covid.

That's great! It's going to be a long wait for us going by the timeline. Hopefully we get it in time for filing our CA return.

I have the same issue. I sent my 1040 forms to be filed with a W-7 application and supporting documents for my spouse to the ITIN operation zip code 78714 and my mail was routed to a 73301 zip code when I tracked it on the USPS website. Is this normal or should I call IRS and USPS and let them know?
