We know you work hard for your money and wanted to answer some of the most common questions we see about the issuance of tax refunds. Here is a breakdown of how your tax return will progress through 3 stages with the IRS -“Return Received”, “Return Approved”, and “Refund Sent” once you e-file and where you can go to check your refund status so you understand “Where’s My Refund?”: Refund Process Start checking status 24 – 48 hours after e-file – Once you e-file with direct deposit, you can start checking the status of your return 24 – 48 hours after you e-file on the IRS Where’s My Refund tool. Return Received Notice within 24 – 48 hours after e-file – The IRS Where’s My Refund tool will show “Return Received” status once they begin processing your tax return. You will not see a refund date until the IRS finishes processing your tax return and approves your tax refund. Status change from “Return Received” to “Refund Approved” – Once the IRS finishes processing your tax return and confirms your tax refund is approved, your status will change from “Return Received” to “Refund Approved”. Sometimes the change in status can take a few days, but it could take longer and a date will not be provided in Where’s My Refund? until your tax return is processed and your tax refund is approved. Where’s My Refund? tool shows refund date – The IRS will provide an actual refund date once your status moves to “Refund Approved”. The IRS issues more than 9 out of 10 refunds in 21 days or less. Where’s My Refund? shows “Refund Sent” – You’re now closer to your biggest tax refund! If the status in Where’s My Refund? shows “Refund Sent”, the IRS has sent your tax refund to your financial institution for direct deposit. It can take 1 to 5 days for your financial institution to deposit funds into your account. If you requested that your tax refund be mailed, it could take several weeks for your check to arrive. Here are more answers to your common questions about your tax refund: Will I see a date right away when I check status in “Where’s My Refund”? Where’s My Refund will not give you a date until your tax return is received, processed, and your tax refund is approved by the IRS It’s been longer than 21 days since the IRS has received my tax return and I have not received my tax refund. What’s happening? Some tax returns take longer than others to process depending on your tax situation. Some of the reasons it may take longer are incomplete information, an error, or the IRS needs to review it further. What other sources can I use to check my refund status? Once you have e-filed your tax return with TurboTax, you can check your status using MyTurboTax. You can even check your status on the go from your mobile device using TurboTax free app MyTaxRefund. If you haven’t e-filed your taxes yet, you can start today. You may even be able to e-file your federal tax return for free and have your biggest tax refund in your pocket within 21 days.

I believe you are being audited. If everything is ok as far as paperwork etc then they will give you a refund direct deposit date. I had one client go through this before in 2012. I filed her taxes in Feb 2012 and she didn’t get her money until sometime in June 2012 direct deposit how it was set up but she owed the government from 2011 taxes and her income had changed about 40% decrease from the 2011 tax year vs the 2012 tax year.

Contact a tax advocate. There is no real wait time and they have access to all your tax records and you can get much more info out of them about what the problems are exactly and what you can do about it. In order for them to help expedite the process they ask if you have a hardship. The # is 1-877-777-4778. Hope this helps. Reply Soapboxandmore due u have a direct extension win I call the 1877 number it forwards me directly to the irs.i have no offsets or child support .what is a hardship ?and how due I directly get ahold of a tax advocate not a machine push1 for hardship.is that what I should hit tomorrow win I call again.1 for hardship.all the irs is saying is that its still processing I should recieve a notice.well I order my transcripts by mail.win I try to pull thm up online 2013 saying I havent filed for tht year.wich is clear bullshit cause irs2go app sure had my bar receved and being processed.

IRS accepted it on the 31st of January. Today is March 2nd, 2014 and it’s still processing. It’s a very simple, straight forward tax return, no problems, no errors. I checked my state return and it also shows “still processing.” There’s no need to call in because each rep gives a different story. So, I’m just going to wait. However, if I owed them money, they would want it yesterday. Reply I live in Wisconsin and it usually takes a week to get state return. This year mines been done processing for four weeks and the for keeps giving me a different reason why… Until this week when they said something is definitely wrong and I should have gotten it. They’ve been verifying the same thing for 5 weeks. Reply @Brie.

Not sure if it means anything Reply I’m still waiting from February 9th bars disappeared yesterday what does that mean Reply I called today and spoke with someone in the “examiners” dept. She basically said to me that they are investigating anyone who claimed EIC because it is “government” money and they have a right to see who deserves it or not?????????I said ” you establishing that my daughter , whom I support , is verified by your words exactly, whats the holdup?? She said its gonna be MONTHS AND MONTHS.. that they just now are finishing with 2012 reviews.. WTF????

So ordering and getting your transcripts doesn’t mean anything I suppose..?? confused..ugh Filed with TT on 1/30/14…accepted on 1/31/14…expected Federal refund delivery before 2/21/14…tax return still being processed since the day accepted with no refund date available yet. Never had this problem…what is really goin on???? Reply I am in the same situation, I even called and they said it was still processing Reply I would call.

Also to prove my HOH status, I am and have been a single homeowner for the last um… 17 yrs.. also to prove my dependents I claimed..my sister and her husband live with me.. they are older and don’t work… so…I faxed it all in…then the person I talked to said ” ok, I see the relationship with your daughter.” I was like..UM really??? DUH! So I was able to get my transcript online, I filed 2/11 and it was accepted the same day. I have a cycle date of 20140905. If I’m counting correctly, that means on or by 3/5? Reply If your can view your account transcript online it will give you the cycle date and the processing date. My says 20140805 but processing date March 10, 2014, so I think that means next Monday they will send the deposit and it will be available on that Wednesday. I filed 1/31 and still waiting as well. Reply @DemiB, Ive got the exact same thing on my transcript. I will also post here next Monday 3/10.2014 if i receive anything. I have the same DDD hopefully we get our money on time Praying hard it comes Reply I filed 2/10 was accepted the next day. Was a me to pull up my transcript 2/28. I have a cycle date for 20140905 but I have the 570 code 🙁 I also have a DDD of 3/5 also…I pray we all get our refunds tomorrow I filed on February 4th and my taxes were accepted on the same day. I hit my 21 days yesterday so I called IRS. I called 1-800-829-1040 options 1,2,1,4,2 social security #, 1,1,5,2. Make sure you listen to the prompts. I followed someone else who posted this sequence number by number and I ended up at the wrong area after being on hold 45 mins. I was then sent to the right area where I was on hold another 45 mins (blank stare) but luckily the gentleman was very helpful. Our issue was TT didn’t take our homebuyer credit payment out of our refund when I swore I made sure it was deducted as this happened to us last year as well. He told me it was fine now. The screwed up part is it was corrected by IRS on the 18th but still no refund or DD date and the rep couldn’t figure out why the money hadn’t been released even though the error had been corrected. So before hanging up, he tells me it can be another 6 weeks before we get our refund WTH!!!!! Reply I would like to know the number and how to talk to a lie person at the IRS. All I get is automated line telling me the same thing that WMR is saying “Still Processing” TT said I should receive refund by 2/25 and guess what I don’t have? So frustrated! I am a single mom of 3. I am going to claim the maximum amount of dependents this year so the IRS takes less out of my check. I would rather not struggle all year than to fight for my own money back, Reply 1-800-829-1040 Press 1 for English Press 0 Press 0 again, and you’ll get an operator who will direct you to the right dept. Hope this helps! Reply I electronically filed my taxes 2/7/14 and still haven’t gotten no refund date. Its still saying being processed ! Im in the same boat as you are , does tgat mean iam denied ? Reply @sasshay same with me! i was accepted on 2/7..i called irs today and they told me i have been randomly selected for review.i will receive a notice in the mail.they said they do this every year randomly to different people.Depending on what is stated in the letter,i may hare to send in supporting documents..this is ridiculous because i never had this problem Reply Hows this for a punch in the head.. IRS is now accepting same sex couples and allowing them to go back three years to amend returns, yet they are questioning my claiming my daughter and granddaughter as dependents???????SMFH Reply Don’t be so shallow! Same sex couple have every right to file together. Unless you are named the legal guardian of your granddaughter they have every right to question it. Reply I don’t have a problem with same sex couples and their tax situation, WHAT I do have a problem with is the IRS questioning MY relationship to MY daughter I gave birth to and am supporting..also telling me that I may have to send in my granddaughter’s medical transcripts?? THAT is my problem, that’s way out of their league… I won’t release my granddaughters personal medical history to them. I’ll just go out and get a girlfriend and claim her next year..HOWS THAT? I am having to prove my relationship with my 31 year old disabled daughter and that she has been disabled since birth. Prove my relationship with my 2 grandkids. Same sex couples, I know that’s right. Reply In the IRS where is my refund it said it was send i have direct ddeposita and i called my bank and there is nothing pending Reply Just got off the phone with IRS. i filed jan 20th, accepted jan 24th through turbo tax. been in processing since then. was able to get my transcript online with a cycle date of 20140805 and no codes or anything, which wouldve been yesterday, received nothing. just told by IRS that there is a freeze on my account and to expect a letter explaining why within 2 weeks. Nothing changed within my return, i really think these early accepted turbo tax filings are being targeted! Never again. Reply How did you get through to the irs? I cannot get ahold of a live person. Reply call 1 800 829 1040. hit prompt 1 then 2 then 9, if that doesnt work, hit zero a couple times and it will tell you to hold for a live operator and you will hold about 30 minutes(if youre lucky). can i please get the number you caled so i can get info on mine all i get is computer Reply I agree. Same here…. Reply Dlang anynnew news? Reply Looks like I am in the same boat as others. I filed with TT on 2/1/14 and was accepted the same day. I called the IRS yesterday and was told that all looked fine and that she would note my account to remove code and continue to process. This is crazy I did about 7 others taxes after mines and they all have received their money. The lady also told me that mines wasn’t acutally accepted until 2/4/14 still no letters are anything I am not sure what the hold-up is. I have been reading others that filed on the same day as me has gotten their refunds. At this point I just don’t know whatelse to do but wait. Reply Hi Peaches, I am desperately trying to get a live person at the IRS. What number and prompts did you use? I am very frustrated and I can’t even order my transcripts! Please help. Thank you Reply call 1(800) 829-1040…dial 1 for english,then 2 for personal income tax..after that hit 00 it will direct you to live person and they will stransfer you to the right dept 18008291040….Prompt is 1,2,2,4,1 and you should get a live person Supposedly my return was efiled the 21 of January. January 27 TT sent me an email saying my return was received by the irs. When I go on the WMR website it now says still processing a refund date will be posted once it is done processing. I have yet to receive any federal refund. I did however already receive my state refund. It is real frustrating that there is no way to know about the status of my federal refund. Reply I am experiencing the same thing on WMR giving me the same message. Called IRS can’t really get the truth from them all I can do is just wait I guess. And I also received mt state refund as well. Reply Here’s my situation. I filed jointly with my husband on 3/31 with tt. Found out through tt website that my return was accepted on3/31 as well. Checked out wmr site and it confirmed that my return had been accepted. After a few weeks passed by, I went back to wmr and there were no bars, but my refund was “still processing”. I wafted the 21 days, checked and I was “still processing”. I decided to call the IRS and see what was going on. After finally being able to speak with a live rep., the rep told me that my return wasn’t actually accepted until the 14th. Being confused, and not accepting what was told to me I decided to get a tax advocate involved. I was told the tax advocate would take 5 days to be assigned to me a tax advocate e. On the fifth day, I waited on the tax advocate to call, and around 3 p.m. I got tired of waiting, so I called the IRS again. Spoke to a rep and was finally told that my return was on hold, but the rep couldn’t tell me why, but I would be receiving something in the mail. He also told me that the tax advocate wouldn’t be able to help me 🙁 That same day the tax advocate finally called me. She was able to tell me that my return was selected for a review, and she told me that I needed to help verify my identity. She gave me a list of things (from mine & my husband employer) that I needed to fax in in order to help me verify our identity. As of today, it has been 27 days since we filed, and we are just now really getting info. on how to get the ball rolling so we can receive our tax return. We still have not received anything from the IRS. I hope this will give light and help someone else that may be in the same situation, since the IRS has left us tax payers in limbo…clueless. I’ll update as soon as I get the info to the tax advocate. Best wishes to all that’s still waiting, and have no clue what’s going on with their refund that is due to them!! Reply mine is also under review and it has been 21 days..what kind of info did you have to send to identify your identity? Have you gotten any information on your return since you spole with the Tax Advocate? I am aking because mines contacted me today and I had to fax over alot of stuff to her today. After 26days……sux to wait. Any other 2/1 w still proccessing? Reply Filed/accepted on 2/1. Firstt bar went away on 5th, says s.p. since. No DDD, No codes, cant get transcripts. Waiiting…. Reply Does anybody has a DD of 2/27? Reply so I sent it…it was accepted, processed and sent direct deposit…I never got the deposit and now IRS.gov says they received my returns and are being processed…does this mean an error (bank account number was wrong) and I may get a check do I have to go through the whole process of waiting again? Reply This thing happen to me to, filed on 2/10 got app. stated that ddd on 2/20. Ck’d with bank never got deposited., Called IRS stated that they will be reviewing my account and then they will send a paper check. Can be up to 12 weeks.

I would call them. They may have sent you a letter stating your refund is under review and that it takes 60 days from the date of the letter. I don’t feel goodaboutj this whole situation. This is the first time I’ve ever been through anything like this. Reply
Hi Everyone, i filed 1-22 with H&R, accepted on 2-5. was told today my 6wks wud end on 13 of march however, 23 was my 8th week. I was also told i would not receive a letter, I had passed the identity theft. I hope this helps everyone. I WUS ALSO TOLD, THOSE WHO DON’T GET A LETTER R ALREADY APPROVED
I was told mine was processed)approved already and I got a letter saying I have to wait until 60 days after 2/24(date of the letter)
I have seen this before and it could take up between 4-6 months with their review process. I believe you are being audited. If everything is ok as far as paperwork etc then they will give you a refund direct deposit date. I had one client go through this before in 2012. I filed her taxes in Feb 2012 and she didn’t get her money until sometime in June 2012 direct deposit how it was set up but she owed the government from 2011 taxes and her income had changed about 40% decrease from the 2011 tax year vs the 2012 tax year.

Filed 1/30 accepted 1/31. Got my transcript over the weekend. 08/05 code 570. With a date of 3/10. No letter from them, safe to assume something happens after 3/10 ? Reply
I got two transcripts , if your under review, it doesn’t matter. I got a notice dated 2/24 on 2/21? Thats how messed up they are.. I have a as of date of 3/17, not holding out hope they fix it by then…someone or something they changed this year really messed up filings.. I filed 1/31 , accepted on 2/24 Reply
I really hope they send it sooner than 60 days from 2/24 because this is really making my ass hurt. I need a car in the worst way
I know the feeling, I have to move out of state, I put in my transfer already with my job. I only have 45 days to be put on the new schedule or I lose my Master status and have to start at the bottom again. My daughter and granddaughter are already out of state waiting for me to get there and set up house, she is also expecting a baby in the beginning of June..So I am stressed to the max … what else is there to do but wait? They have us under the gun now… UGH…

Just got off the phone with the IRS, efiled Jan 26 using HR block got accepted Feb 2. WMR said still processing. IRS said that my refund is under evaluation, and that I should wait 6 to 8 weeks starting from Feb 10 2014 to get a dd and if I dont get it by then I should call again. Well I hope this help somebody in the same situation. Got bless! Reply
No update as of this A.M. I filed 2/1/14 and was accepted the same day. No letter, codes, transcripts, or DDD. Maybe I need to contact a TA to see what the hold-up really is because the IRS says wait at least 6-8 weeks. Frustrated at this point. Reply

I got a letter today saying I was under review. It didn’t ask for anything though. I guess I will just have to keep waiting. Reply
Does anyone know why the Refund Date on the IRS site changes? Every time I check it has said the current date. I don’t understand what that means. Reply

Its a good thing when you can order ur transcripts and it has a code ont the bottom 846 refund issued if ith has a 570 or 976 you frozen and under review(audit) someone has to manually look at return the letter says up to 60days before u can call from there is a date of 3/17 net to my 570 code from what im reading thats the day it will be reviewed by and if they find something wrong you will get a letter if nothing is wrong they will put it back in progressand you sshould get a refund to follow I filed 2/6 approved same day and have a 570 on my return but no 976 which people on hear says it means a letter was sent even tho I got a letter yesterday 3/3 Reply

Yes i was able to view mine the day before i got approved,it was 2/28 midnight going into 3/1 and i didnt have a 570 code on my transcript
then you should be OK hopefully I was looking at my return transcript which had no codes I printed my account transcript and sure enough there was three codes on the bottom from what I hear if u have 846 code your direct deposit is good hopefully you’re looking at your account transcriptand not your return transcript like I was
Yeah i scanned threw both transcripts to make sure theres no 971 or 570 codes i just have 846 766 768 and 150
looks like you’re in the clear 846 is the code you want to see that means your refund processed and a dd was made so ur good to go
i know this will sound dumb, but how do i find out where these codes are? i filed about the 16th. and still nothing has changed. but i want to see if there is anything wrong with my return.

I’m so lost I didn’t know I was under review until I called. I filed 1/39 and waited 21 days to call. After going to the IRs he said I will hear something in 6-8 weeks. I have yet to get any letters in the mail. I just have no idea what’s going on and no one is telling me much when I call because of the fraud protection they put in my account. I can’t keep going to the office because I work and in college full time and after spending hours there I still get told it’s processing and I have to just wait

For all those under review like me. Contact a tax advocate. There is no real wait time and they have access to all your tax records and you can get much more info out of them about what the problems are exactly and what you can do about it. In order for them to help expedite the process they ask if you have a hardship. The # is 1-877-777-4778. Hope this helps. Reply
Soapboxandmore due u have a direct extension win I call the 1877 number it forwards me directly to the irs.i have no offsets or child support .what is a hardship ?and how due I directly get ahold of a tax advocate not a machine push1 for hardship.is that what I should hit tomorrow win I call again.1 for hardship.all the irs is saying is that its still processing I should recieve a notice.well I order my transcripts by mail.win I try to pull thm up online 2013 saying I havent filed for tht year.wich is clear bullshit cause irs2go app sure had my bar receved and being processed.

I filed on 2/19/14 got approved 3/1/14 with a DDD of 3/5/14 its funny to cause i couldnt order my transcripts and the next day i could with a cycle date.After googling what cycle dates meant i find out my DDD and it matched up with what wmr said Reply
I e-filed on the 26th of January 2014 via H&R Block. IRS accepted it on the 31st of January. Today is March 2nd, 2014 and it’s still processing. It’s a very simple, straight forward tax return, no problems, no errors. I checked my state return and it also shows “still processing.” There’s no need to call in because each rep gives a different story. So, I’m just going to wait. However, if I owed them money, they would want it yesterday. Reply
I live in Wisconsin and it usually takes a week to get state return. This year mines been done processing for four weeks and the for keeps giving me a different reason why… Until this week when they said something is definitely wrong and I should have gotten it. They’ve been verifying the same thing for 5 weeks. Reply

So I was able to get my transcript online, I filed 2/11 and it was accepted the same day. I have a cycle date of 20140905. If I’m counting correctly, that means on or by 3/5? Reply
If your can view your account transcript online it will give you the cycle date and the processing date. My says 20140805 but processing date March 10, 2014, so I think that means next Monday they will send the deposit and it will be available on that Wednesday. I filed 1/31 and still waiting as well.

@DemiB, Ive got the exact same thing on my transcript. I will also post here next Monday 3/10.2014 if i receive anything.
I filed 2/10 was accepted the next day. Was a me to pull up my transcript 2/28. I have a cycle date for 20140905 but I have the 570 code 🙁
I filed on February 4th and my taxes were accepted on the same day. I hit my 21 days yesterday so I called IRS. I called 1-800-829-1040 options 1,2,1,4,2 social security #, 1,1,5,2. Make sure you listen to the prompts. I followed someone else who posted this sequence number by number and I ended up at the wrong area after being on hold 45 mins. I was then sent to the right area where I was on hold another 45 mins (blank stare) but luckily the gentleman was very helpful. Our issue was TT didn’t take our homebuyer credit payment out of our refund when I swore I made sure it was deducted as this happened to us last year as well. He told me it was fine now. The screwed up part is it was corrected by IRS on the 18th but still no refund or DD date and the rep couldn’t figure out why the money hadn’t been released even though the error had been corrected. So before hanging up, he tells me it can be another 6 weeks before we get our refund WTH!!!!! Reply
I would like to know the number and how to talk to a lie person at the IRS. All I get is automated line telling me the same thing that WMR is saying “Still Processing” TT said I should receive refund by 2/25 and guess what I don’t have? So frustrated! I am a single mom of 3. I am going to claim the maximum amount of dependents this year so the IRS takes less out of my check. I would rather not struggle all year than to fight for my own money back, Reply
1-800-829-1040 Press 1 for English Press 0 Press 0 again, and you’ll get an operator who will direct you to the right dept. Hope this helps! Reply
I electronically filed my taxes 2/7/14 and still haven’t gotten no refund date. Its still saying being processed ! Im in the same boat as you are , does tgat mean iam denied ? Reply
@sasshay same with me! i was accepted on 2/7..i called irs today and they told me i have been randomly selected for review.i will receive a notice in the mail.they said they do this every year randomly to different people.Depending on what is stated in the letter,i may hare to send in supporting documents..this is ridiculous because i never had this problem Reply
Hows this for a punch in the head.. IRS is now accepting same sex couples and allowing them to go back three years to amend returns, yet they are questioning my claiming my daughter and granddaughter as dependents???????SMFH Reply
Don’t be so shallow! Same sex couple have every right to file together. Unless you are named the legal guardian of your granddaughter they have every right to question it. Reply
I don’t have a problem with same sex couples and their tax situation, WHAT I do have a problem with is the IRS questioning MY relationship to MY daughter I gave birth to and am supporting..also telling me that I may have to send in my granddaughter’s medical transcripts?? THAT is my problem, that’s way out of their league… I won’t release my granddaughters personal medical history to them. I’ll just go out and get a girlfriend and claim her next year..HOWS THAT?
I am having to prove my relationship with my 31 year old disabled daughter and that she has been disabled since birth. Prove my relationship with my 2 grandkids. Same sex couples, I know that’s right. Reply
In the IRS where is my refund it said it was send i have direct ddeposita and i called my bank and there is nothing pending Reply
Just got off the phone with IRS. i filed jan 20th, accepted jan 24th through turbo tax. been in processing since then. was able to get my transcript online with a cycle date of 20140805 and no codes or anything, which wouldve been yesterday, received nothing. just told by IRS that there is a freeze on my account and to expect a letter explaining why within 2 weeks. Nothing changed within my return, i really think these early accepted turbo tax filings are being targeted! Never again. Reply
call 1 800 829 1040. hit prompt 1 then 2 then 9, if that doesnt work, hit zero a couple times and it will tell you to hold for a live operator and you will hold about 30 minutes(if youre lucky).
Looks like I am in the same boat as others. I filed with TT on 2/1/14 and was accepted the same day. I called the IRS yesterday and was told that all looked fine and that she would note my account to remove code and continue to process. This is crazy I did about 7 others taxes after mines and they all have received their money. The lady also told me that mines wasn’t acutally accepted until 2/4/14 still no letters are anything I am not sure what the hold-up is. I have been reading others that filed on the same day as me has gotten their refunds. At this point I just don’t know whatelse to do but wait. Reply
Hi Peaches, I am desperately trying to get a live person at the IRS. What number and prompts did you use? I am very frustrated and I can’t even order my transcripts! Please help. Thank you Reply

Supposedly my return was efiled the 21 of January. January 27 TT sent me an email saying my return was received by the irs. When I go on the WMR website it now says still processing a refund date will be posted once it is done processing. I have yet to receive any federal refund. I did however already receive my state refund. It is real frustrating that there is no way to know about the status of my federal refund. Reply
I am experiencing the same thing on WMR giving me the same message. Called IRS can’t really get the truth from them all I can do is just wait I guess. And I also received mt state refund as well. Reply
Here’s my situation. I filed jointly with my husband on 3/31 with tt. Found out through tt website that my return was accepted on3/31 as well. Checked out wmr site and it confirmed that my return had been accepted. After a few weeks passed by, I went back to wmr and there were no bars, but my refund was “still processing”. I wafted the 21 days, checked and I was “still processing”. I decided to call the IRS and see what was going on. After finally being able to speak with a live rep., the rep told me that my return wasn’t actually accepted until the 14th. Being confused, and not accepting what was told to me I decided to get a tax advocate involved. I was told the tax advocate would take 5 days to be assigned to me a tax advocate e. On the fifth day, I waited on the tax advocate to call, and around 3 p.m. I got tired of waiting, so I called the IRS again. Spoke to a rep and was finally told that my return was on hold, but the rep couldn’t tell me why, but I would be receiving something in the mail. He also told me that the tax advocate wouldn’t be able to help me 🙁 That same day the tax advocate finally called me. She was able to tell me that my return was selected for a review, and she told me that I needed to help verify my identity. She gave me a list of things (from mine & my husband employer) that I needed to fax in in order to help me verify our identity. As of today, it has been 27 days since we filed, and we are just now really getting info. on how to get the ball rolling so we can receive our tax return. We still have not received anything from the IRS. I hope this will give light and help someone else that may be in the same situation, since the IRS has left us tax payers in limbo…clueless. I’ll update as soon as I get the info to the tax advocate. Best wishes to all that’s still waiting, and have no clue what’s going on with their refund that is due to them!! Reply
mine is also under review and it has been 21 days..what kind of info did you have to send to identify your identity?
Have you gotten any information on your return since you spole with the Tax Advocate? I am aking because mines contacted me today and I had to fax over alot of stuff to her today.
