How will I know that the IRS has received my tax return?
How will I know that the IRS has received my tax return?
When you e-file your tax return, you get an immediate confirmation that your return has been received. The IRS sends an acknowledgment email within 24 hours of receiving your e-filed return, letting you know it’s in their system and being processed.
For paper returns, you won’t get an acknowledgment, but you can use the IRS’s "Where's My Refund?" tool to track the status of your return once it's been processed. This tool is available on the IRS website and app.
