Will my return ever be accepted or rejected or will I never know?

[kamsam18]

I have mailed in my return before the deadline along with my signature and income info and forms provided. The status still says only ‘printed’. How will I know if it will ever be looked over and if I will ever receive my refund or not?

Sorry, Turbo Tax will always say  Printed or  Ready to Mail.  They don't know if or when you actually mailed it.  The IRS doesn't tell or update Turbo Tax when they get a mailed return.

 Accepted or Rejected is only for efiled returns.  The IRS accepts all mailed returns.

4 weeks after you print and mail it,  you can start checking IRS Where's my refund     https://www.irs.gov/refunds/
