          I filed 2/28/17, got accepted march1, 2017…On March 10 my bars and tax topic went missing and stayed gone..after my 21 days were up I called irs everyday and they wouldn’t tell me what exactly was wrong…so I finally called tax advocate, she told me that it was being offset by irs for 2014 tax liabilities. Woke up Saturday morning and bars are back and shows ddd March 29…I told the lady I called the offset number and it said I had no non tax debts…she said if you owe federal it will not show on the offset number…

            Hi Mandy,

            I was accepted around the week of 2/24 and the following week, my bars and tt 152 disappeared as well. No offsets or letters. Was able to order last years return & account transcripts and this years. Sooooooo confused. Filed as HOH, EIC, CTC. Guess tomorrow is the day I finally put in that dreaded phone call. UGGGGHHHH.

                      So I defiled thru TT 2/13 . was able to order transcripts on 2/17 but now WMR says that there is a delay in processing my refund with a ref code 1541. Turbotax said it just saying that because it may be backed up(IRS). Anybody else can relate?

                        i was told by 3 irs reps mine would be mailed on the 27th and my wmr status says your refund check will by mailed by Feb 27th. I wonder why they would wait almost 2 weeks to mail it.

                            Hello everyone, I would recommend calling if your bars and tax topic has disappeared. This happened to me I filed and was accepted 1/29 my bars went away 2/11 still not back and I passed my 21 days spoke with an irs rep who said I needed to go into the irs center in my area for verification. I never received a letter or notification on wmr. She gave me a number to call to get more info and set an appointment 1844-5455640 they were NO help at all just said she will mail a letter in 10days because without it I would be turned away if I tried to make an appointment to verify my info….this is very frustrsting

                              I filed 2/13 and was accepted minutes after. All my bars disappeared two days ago. I checked my account transcript and I have code 846 with date of 3/13. I have PATH credits and two offsets from prior tax years.

                                            Did anyone figure it out? What does it mean when you lose your bars and get 152, THEN you get that your return is being processed and you have NO TAX CODE or bars? Keep in mind the “when available” is not there either.

                                            This happened to me this morning. I was finally able to order my Return Transcript yesterday (aka before I lost my Tax Code).

                                              @catwoman they told me it was in “the best interest of tax payers” that my refund be sent by mail. So obnoxious. I’m so annoyed by this whole thing. I’ve never had an issue. I’m just hoping it really doesn’t take 9 weeks.

                                                      1/23 filed. accepted 20 minutes later. I never had a single bar, it went right to processing. I have been stuck on processing ever since then, still on processing today. My spouse, with whom I filed jointly, had one bar until a few days ago. They went to processing on Saturday, so now we are both on processing message. No tax topic, refund amount is on the left, no letter in the mail. I feel your pain. I don’t care if my refund is delayed a bit, just hate not knowing what my status is. Processing could mean anything.

And today I noticed my tax topic disappeared too. I have not got a letter from them yet, I don’t have a offset( i don’t owe) i did have EIC and school credit as well. I hope to get a update soon.

As of Friday my orange bar dissappeared and I have the path message with my info to the left but the amount is gone. Hrblock shows my return was processed and complete and that the IRS is working on getting my refund. Not sure how that’s tru when Irs says it’s still processing. Any updates like this for anyone?

Called and told everything is fine which I don’t entirely believe. This is definitely stressful. First time I did my own taxes. Can’t help but think I screwed something up. Ugh.

Was estimated to have my refund my 2/19 filed and accepted on 1/29. Stressed. It’s been a week since the bars have disappeared and my amount is still there but no tax topic.

The IRS reminded taxpayers affected by the delay they can begin preparing their tax returns immediately because many software providers are ready now to accept these returns.

                                                                                                  Beginning Feb. 14, the IRS will start processing both paper and e-filed returns claiming itemized deductions on Schedule A, the higher education tuition and fees deduction on Form 8917 and the educator expenses deduction. Based on filings last year, about nine million tax returns claimed any of these deductions on returns received by the IRS before Feb. 14.

Received refund in my account on 2/10 ( bars still not shown on WMR).. Checked WMR 2/11, and one bar has returned, showing DDD of 2/15.. Seems that I received direct deposit 5 days early.. I used a walmart money card for the direct deposit.. Plus the IRS reduced my refund a little and WMR states that I will receive a letter explaining the offset..

I called last week to see if I needed to verify my ID and was told if I did I would receive a letter or it will show on wmr. I had to last year and it never showed up or did I get a letter. I just called and was told I needed to verify.
