Is your accountant also a lawyer? An accountant should NOT be doing legal work such as filing legal paperwork for forming and incorporating a business. You really should consult a business lawyer to see if anything needs to be done or corrected.
Forming a corporation has nothing to do with filing the election to be taxed as a S-corporation. So yes, you need to ask your accountant when that was filed. If the accountant did not do that on time, that is the accountant's error and hopefully they can try to correct things by appealing for a late election.
