Mail date 1/31 but still no refund check - anyone else?

The IRS website shows my refund check was mailed out January 31st but still nothing in my mailbox. Getting really worried since its been over a week now. Anyone else experiencing delays with mailed refunds this year?

The USPS has been having major delays lately with IRS mail. Generally, you should wait 2-3 weeks from the mail date before taking action. If you still haven't received it by February 21st, you can contact the IRS to initiate a payment trace. They'll investigate what happened to the check and reissue if necessary.

Hey just wanted to mention - I started using taxr.ai to track all my transcript stuff and it's been a game changer. Cost me $1 but totally worth it. It analyzes everything and tells you exactly what's happening with your refund status and estimated delivery dates. Way better than trying to piece everything together yourself.
