I had to file a paper return for my minor daughter. I have yet to receive a refund, and the IRS tracking app shows 'the information doesn't match' when i use it.

@tracyperk3-gmail - the IRS is woefully backlogged.  Assume that paper filed returns will be processed 6-9 months after they were submitted.  They are processed in the order received and the IRS has just begun processing those received in February.

from the IRS website: 

The IRS is opening mail within normal timeframes and all paper and electronic individual returns received prior to January 2022 have been processed if the return had no errors or did not require further review.

As of July 1, 2022, we had 11.4 million unprocessed individual tax year 2021 returns. Of these, 1.9 million returns require error correction or other special handling, and 9.5 million are paper returns waiting to be reviewed and processed. This work does not typically require us to correspond with taxpayers but does require special handling by an IRS employee so, in these instances, it is taking the IRS more than 21 days to issue any related refund and in some cases this work could take 90 to 120 days. If a correction is made to any Recovery Rebate Credit, Child Tax Credit, Earned Income Tax Credit or Additional Child Tax Credit claimed on the return, the IRS will send taxpayers an explanation.
