| Explanation | This filing was submitted on time. However, several months later, in January of 2023, I received the hard copy back informing me that only electronic forms are accepted now. The correspondence attached to the return form was dated for December 2022, but I did not receive the return until late January 2023. The form was originally mailed out to the IRS on June 14, 2022. The Priority envelope it was mailed in was returned with the form. | ExplanationTxt |
