Howdy just wanted to give you a brief heads up and leet you
know a few of the pictures aren’t loading properly.
I’m not sure why but I think its a linking issue.
I’ve tried it in two different browsers and both show the same outcome.I believe everything said was very reasonable.
But, think on this, what if you added a little content? I ain’t saying your information isn’t good, but what if you added a
post title that makes people desire more? I mean 8863′er | Where’s My Refund?
is a little plain. You could peek at Yahoo’s front page and note how they create article titles to grab people interested.You might try adding a video or a pic or two to get readers excited about
everything’ve written. Just my opinion, it would make your posts a
little bit more interesting.Quality content is the main to attract the people to pay a
quick visit the website, that’s what this site is providing.magnificent issues altogether, you simply gained a logo new reader.
What may you suggest in regards to your put up that you just
made some days in the past? Any certain?louboutin pas cher france
I really like what you guys are usually up too. This sort of clever work and reporting!
Keep up the fantastic works guys I’ve added you
guys to my personal blogroll.Heres my story:
I had to mail off my form because of the adoption credit.
Went to have it done by a professional on 1/26/13
she mailed it off on 1/30/13
I checked the tax refund website and it doesnt even show that they have received anything.
Should I remail the tax refund? or is it normal for it not to show up after all this time? HELP!So, ours was sent on 2/15 through HR block online… It was accepted, but still, as of today (3/12/13) all the IRS site says is PENDING…. Any heads up on this? It’s driving me nuts….
Accepted 2/14
Generic 21 day message 2/15-2/25
Ordered transcripts 2/26
Wmr updated 2/26 to refund date will be given, refund amount disappeared.
2/27 wmr updated. Refund amount back. No bars. Just says return processing no mention of anything else. No refund date or tax codes.Any thoughts?
Hi,
I filed on 1/23 and was accepted on 1/26 but had to wait for the processing date of 2/14. I was able to order transcripts finally on 2/20 and received a DD for 2/26. I checked the SBBT today and IRS has already deposited funds but wont probably post to my bank until tomorrow. We are all finally being processed and anyone else still waiting should at the least receive DD by Friday. Good Luck!!
i also got a dd of 2/27.. eic, 8863, 1 dep. calked yesterday & was given that and today it updated to that. now i wonder when sbbt will get it for tt fees…
i also got a dd of 2/27.. eic, 8863, 1 dep. calked yesterday & was given that and today it updated to that. now i winder when sbbt will get it for tt fees…
Thanks for the responses. I’ve looked further and when I call the offset number apparently the offset is against me and not my husband and it gives me a choice of personal or business information. When I check personal there is nothing but business says I owe State of Maryland. Which makes no sense because I haven’t received a derned thing from Maryland saying my business from last year owes them anything. Or heck any of my businesses ever, So odd. Of course everything is closed for the weekend so I can not talk to a person until Monday. Yay, two days to sit around and worry some more.. like I haven’t done that enough since 1/25. Wish it would give an amount at least so I would have some idea of what is actually going to be deposited until I can this offset business straightened out.
Here’s my story: I filed on 1/16, was accepted on 1/24 (IRS says 1/25). I sat for 3 weeks before they accepted the 8863, like most of us have. Reaccepted on 2/14, or so I thought. I was put back into processing on 2/20. I woke up this morning to a dd of 2/27.
Image proof: http://s6.postimage.org/yorjiwgsh/image.jpgBlani I dont have that message either my ddd is 2/27 as well since you have netspend you may get it sooner than 2/27 based on what i seen some people on here who uses it however do not quote me on that I have TD bank.
No dependents
E-filed 2/14
Accepted and processing as of 2/15
Checked today No updates :/
Tried to order transcripts, and still nothing..
anybody in the same boat?No, Blani, that is not a generic message on everyone’s WMR. I do not have that message. You might want to give them a call and see if they can tell you anything… or just wait until you get your account transcript in the mail, which should have some information on it.
Hey All Update and question:
Filed 1/22 with TaxAct, Accepted 1/25. 8863 form so was told about the hold on 1/28. One orange bar until 2/14 then changed to still processing and you will get a date when available. Then wednesday same message only the refund amount disappeared. Yesterday was able to order both account and refund transcripts. Woke up today with a DDD of 2/27 and both orange bars are back. Only thing added at the bottom is this:
Please Note:
Your refund may be reduced to pay a past due obligation such as child support, another federal agency debt, or state income tax. If this applies to you, the Financial Management Service, who issues IRS refunds, will send you a notice informing you of any offset they have made. The details of the debt are not provided to the IRS. Please do not call us to inquire about the details because we will not be able to answer your questions. Instead, direct any questions you have about the offset or debt to the agency identified on the notice.
For refund information, please continue to check here, or use our free mobile app, IRS2Go. Updates to refund status are made no more than once a day.We do not have any offsets, we don’t owe anyone.. is this just a generic message on everyone’s WMR now?
Also if they are sending DD on 2/27 that means the bank won’t get it until later that day. We have Netspend for the receiving bank/card and Etrade for part of it. Thanks for any answers.Hi there everyone.8863er here.Got a DD of 2/27 this morning!Hang in there your money is coming soon.
I also got a DDD of 2/25 today. Efiled on 2/14, ordered transcripts yesterday.
Awesome.
Just adding in that I also got a DDD of 2/25 today as well.

I was able to order both my account and return transcripts yesterday morning prior to calling and now this morning WMR says:
Refund Status ResultsRefund Approved.
Your tax refund is scheduled to be sent to your bank on February 25, 2013.
If your refund is not credited to your account by March 2, 2013, check with your bank to see if it has been received.

Filed: 1/23
Accepted: 1/25
One orange bar until 2/14
Changed to “refund still processing, DDD when available” on 2/14
Changed to Tax Topic 152 on 2/21
I was finally able to order my 2012 return transcript this morning. Tried yesterday and it wasn’t available.FYI, link for transcript is: http://www.irs.gov/Individuals/Order-a-Transcript
Filed: 1/18
Accepted: 1/26
One orange bar until 2/12
Changed to “refund still processing, DDD when available” on 2/12
Changed to Tax Topic 152 on 2/20I was also able to order my 2012 return transcript this morning. :D No DDD yet.
Finally got to order my transcript right now! Submitted 1/18 and got accepted 1/26. Hopefully I get DD date soon
Finally some movement! I’m a 8863 filer and got accepted 1/26 but was put on hold. Finally got to order my transcript right now 1/20 at 1:14 AM. Hopefully, I’ll get a DD in a day or two
I submitted 2/28 and was also accepted on 2/14 with form 8863. Gosh! I hope we’re still in the 10 day turn around processing!
Well, I filed on 01/26. Tax Slayer didn’t send the information to the IRS until 02/14. I have a message on WMR of 21 days garbage.. Filed with an 8863. I wonder when we’ll get a DDD. I am hoping for one this week, But who knows.
Awesome!! Congrats flashedbios!!
jan 10th. accepted 1/25.
[email protected] flash when did you file?
I got a DD DATE! 2/22! I have rushcard so they will most likely post before that
That’s a good sign flashedbios, I’ve read other peoples post that say that a DDD is coming soon if you are allowed to order transcripts. One lady in the tt forum said she received her dd today and was accepted on 1/23. Someone already posted her screenshot on this forum for proof. My screen changed today to “your return is still being processed…” after having the allow 21 days etc. for several weeks. Not much progress but a glimmer of hope.
I was able to order tscripts this morning. no update yet on wmr
Now WMR says HTTP Error 503 High system demand. I have a feeling im never going to see this money.
No, no changes yet. I’d also take the lower amount to avoid having my lights shut off.
So nobody on here who filed 8863 has seen a change yet? I know mine was one of the first to be accepted. I used turbo tax. Im really hoping to see it before wednesday. I cant order transcripts yet. if someone told me i could have 2800 now instead of the 4000 later id take it. I havent bought anything new / expensive since xmas.
Ugh I’m sooo frusterated at this point. I still have the same one bar and 21 day message, nothing has changed. I filed 1/30 and am not sure if I have even been accepted as HRB immediately sent an email after my IRS acceptance email stating any IRS acceptance of an 8863’er was sent an error. I sure wish they would hurry up and start processing. I had to take a car title loan out to get through this month and have to pay it back by March 1st. I’m not looking for a spending spree, just need this money to get by…this is so ridiculous! :/
i need mine to get car insurance so the same screwy government doesnt try to screw my license. Need to move out of my present abusive situation too. People’s lives are dependent on this sh%t, and they just casually hang up on us and lie to us, like everything is all good. Why do they THINK we file early? ITS CUZ WE NEED IT!!!!!
Hang in there. Hopefully we’ll have due dates soon. At least you just need yours for a spending spree. I need mine to keep my lights on.
They said that they would START processing those returns on the 14th, not that they would do them all on the 14th.
I think the IRS lied. They said they would process education credit returns the 14th. I’m getting a 4000 refund and I’ve been counting on this money to go on a huge spending spree. Well I used wmr this morning and no update . I filed early too. Accepted on the 24th. Still says your return is still being processed. I’ve been waiting too long already does anyone have any info that might give me a good outlook
Been lurking here for a while but haven’t posted yet. Just thought I’d let you guys know that I just got accepted and I am an 8863’er. I filed on January 29th but haven’t been accepted until now. About the date that we all thought.
Good luck to you all. Hope you early acceptance folks get a quick return!
I am an 8863’er and got that same message starting yesterday, have had the Same stupid 1 bar processing since the 30th of Jan. I filed with tax slayer and was accepted on Jan 25th. This is the first change I have seen on Wmr since my initial acceptance.
I filed 1/18, early acceptance 1/25- up until this morning on WMR I have had the generic 21 days message and one orange bar. I now have no bars like people are mentioning and it says a date will be provided when available.
I hope this means good things!
I see there is another forum specifically about this message so I am going to check it out.
Uh, wow.
Called the IRS number to get to a live agent, to inquire about the screen change. I just wanted to make sure that it didn’t signify a problem with my return itself. She refused to look up my return at ALL, and told me, and I quote “You don’t need to be goin’ on the Where’s My Refund site when you know you got a education credit.”
Nice.
Incredibly rude the whole time, AND poor grammar. Stellar customer service there, IRS.
I’ve been following along, but just now registered.
I filed early with TaxAct (on January 18th). Self-employed, EIC, two dependents, American Opportunity Credit (same as last year). Got notice of acceptance on January 25th. From the day WMR opened, until yesterday, I had one orange bar.
This morning, it changed to:
Your tax return is still being processed.
A refund date will be provided when available.Looking around on here, I see that a lot of 8863’ers are getting this message, which calms me down a little, as a Ctrl+F search on the main page brought up a comment from someone that this message meant a 6-8 week delay. Really hoping that’s not the case. I need my refund yesterday!
Will follow along and update if/when anything changes.
Hoping for good news tomorrow!!!!
Yes a lot of the 8863ers got that message
Weird No orange bar on WMR even at the first bar.. it now says:
Your tax return is still being processed.
A refund date will be provided when available.
Anyone else have this?
WMR and the 800# still say they can’t find me. We filed with HRB on 1/31 with the 8863. I had no idea there was a hold up on that form and still feel gypped that HRB didn’t flash some window and tell me there would be a delay before I hit the final button. But that’s a gripe for another forum. :-) Anyhow, they sent an email 2/2 to tell me I would be delayed. My file says “transmitted” on HRB and I never could get an IRS person to verify whether it had been received on their server. HRB has held up our state return also. So, at this point, I must believe HRB when they tell me they will send it through on 2/14. If I don’t get some kind of confirmation on 2/14 I’m going to go crazy because I feel like my stuff is just out in cyberspace somewhere. Very unsettling feeling like this. I know God isn’t going to let my family be put on the street or shut the lights off. Not even close. We are fortunate. It’s just that momma needs a new car! :-) Best to all with filing this week and swift deposits!
Kay Kay you got a review letter and your a 8863er.
Good luck to all and to all a good night
It is saying it cant find me.
i thought it was just me… lol i figured I was just checking to much… spirit broken cause of that review letter but still hoping for good news…
So it looks like quite a few 8863’ers on the main forum can’t access WMR tonight. Here’s to hoping that we wake up to DD dates! :))
I am not sure what to really beleive on this site. There are so many speculations and hopeful wishing. All is know is that the system will be def. ready 2/14/12. As for those of us who were “accepted” before 1/28/13. I just know i better not have to wait an additional 21 days after the 14 days. I will continue to say a prayer for us early 8863 and for those who have a dd please stop complaing that you still have 2 days and want your bank to release ur money early its pissing me off. Lets hang in there 8863’s!!!!
Ok, I have been stalking this page for a while, so I thought I might as well chime in. I filed on the 26th with TaxAct, went from “federal Return Received” for a couple days and then when we found output the delay on the 8863 I changed to “Awaiting Acceptance”. So, from what I have read I think that means that TA hasn’t even sent it to the IRS yet, is that correct? I see alot of people talk about what TT says, but not many people with TA. I am hoping that my return will sent over earlier than the 14th, but at this point, I am not counting on anything.
Oh, and the last time I check with WMR (a few days ago), it says they have no info with me. I am praying we all have our refunds soon!!!Also filed on 1/23 accepted 1/26th. Sitll in processing limbo.
@ theconners4 I sure hope so because I also was accepted on 1/26/13 with the education credit. I am still stuck on 1 orange bar. I can not order either transcripts and I sure hope that we do not ahve to wait another 21 days after 2/14/13 when everyone else is able to use form 8863. I havent called any one and I am getting more than anxious.
Well lets hope she is right theconners4!! I havent even bothered calling the IRS, but if I dont know anything , I may just end up calling myself.. I would hope that once they start processing, the ones that were accepted early and held because of the 8863, will be run through first. Who knows I may call if I havent seen any updates on mine, maybe by next Friday, but a toss up on which number to call to get a nice person lol.
Hey guys. I called the holds # and was put through to a very nice lady who told me I was not in the system AT ALL and to RE-FILE lol. Uh wth?? So I called the ext 362 number and spoke with an amazing woman who actually gave me some info. She took all of my information and put me on hold. When she came back she said they HAVE me return, I do not have to re-file. It is at a tax station and then asked me if we filed an education credit. I said yes and she said that makes sense then. She could see I was accepted on the 26th and thought that was a long time to wait but said it makes sense after I told her we had education credits. She said issues with education credits have been resolved and they are starting to process these returns. She told me I “should” have a DD next week. Obviously this is just a guess from her but still, it’s hope.
Dear J***** P A****,
Important Update About Your Federal Tax Return
Good news! The IRS will start to process returns like yours soon.
We will send your return to the IRS on Thursday, Feb. 14, 2013. This is the date they will begin processing returns like yours that contain Education Credits, Form 8863.Next step:
We’ll send you a message as soon your return(s) are accepted or rejected by the IRS.Read the IRS statement
Directly from TT I just received the email.
Yeah I am wondering that too, hopefully ours are put through first, and they dont forget about us… I am problem one of the very few who havent called the IRS yet.. If I havent seen any progress starting on the 18th, then I will be calling..
I’m wondering the same I was accepted on 1/25 so I dont know what they have in store for us.
I wonder what happens to the ones accepted prior to 1/27
Well at least now we have an actual date. Hopefully we will all see some refunds starting the week of the 18th….
@UUGH8863, I didn’t, the IRS rep did. Sorry.
