@valvarez3200 - they have your return, but the WMR tool will be unable to identify it until it is processed.  "accept" just means they have it - it doesn't mean they have reviewed it.  Think of 'accept' as the mailroom signing for it and that is all. 

 

the IRS is woefully backlogged and patience is required.  I'd check once a week at WMR - it's really all you can do. Here is what the IRS states on their website: 

 

What you should do: In most instances, no further action is needed but you may check Where’s My Refund? or you can view your account. If you filed electronically and received an acknowledgement, you do not need to take any further action other than promptly responding to any requests for information. If you filed on paper, check Where’s My Refund? If it tells you we have received your return or are processing or reviewing it, we are processing your return, but it may be under review. If you filed before October 2021 and Where’s My Refund? does not have any information, your return has been opened but work on it has not begun. We’re working hard to get through the carryover inventory. Please don’t file a second tax return or contact the IRS about the status of your return.
