When you send a form like 4868 via certified mail, it can sometimes take a while for the IRS to process it, especially during peak times. Don't worry if it hasn't been acknowledged yet. As long as you have proof you sent it before the deadline (like a postmarked receipt), you have complied with requirements for an extension. While waiting for confirmation, ensure you are prepared to file your tax return by the extension deadline to avoid penalties.
