You are trying to: See whether your mail ballot has been mailed, received, and accepted by the Maricopa County Recorder.
Mail ballots cross three different tracking systems on their way back to the County Recorder: USPS while in transit, the County Recorder system once received, and the statewide system once processed. Each system updates at a different time, and the words "received" and "accepted" mean different things across them.
You would already need to know that "received" and "accepted" are not the same thing — your ballot can be received by the County Recorder and still need signature verification before it counts as accepted, which can take several days.
Sign up for ballot tracking with the Maricopa County Recorder when you request your mail ballot, watch for the "received" status after you return it, then watch for the "accepted" status which confirms it will be counted.
Ballot tracking is run by the county that issued your ballot. For Maricopa voters, that is the County Recorder.
