Anyone else not seeing a tax topic?

[Rachel]

My WMR has been stuck on processing for weeks now. Everyone keeps talking about getting a tax topic. I have no tax topic on mine. Just says processing and on the left shows last four of SS and refund amount. I called and was told no letter has been sent out. This is so frustrating. With all of these people under “review” their system is sure to get bogged up! Is this normal?

@PamF88 I will make sure that I post any updated situation or news that I get so that at least my experiences can help the next person. This is such a hot mess. I really suspect that the current administration just dropped the ball on this and didn’t hire enough people. On top of that…changing things right before tax time is just idiotic. God do I miss Obama and a competent government.

Hey Rachel my wife I did going thru the same exact thing she has no tax topic it’s identical to yours and still haven’t received letters

@givememydamnmoney I fear I’m being delayed because of the Irma credit was well. I filed on the 19th, and expected I would have an update with a ddd this morning. No movement. I’m pissed. I didn’t ask to be in a hurricane and I didn’t ask for anything to change on my taxes. I just answered the questions as they came up. Had I known it may cause a delay I would have said I wasn’t in the hurricane area.

I’m in washington state so definitely not a hurricane issue. The issue I originally thought it might be was, I divorced 2 years ago and me and my ex husband owed $600 in federal taxes from 2015. We just got the notice this summer and it was due to some income that I had failed to report from a job I worked at briefly. So we agreed that I would file my return first and hopefully it would just come out of my refund because I am getting a pretty substantial return. Well he filed after me and he told me last week that they took what we owed out of his return. So I don’t think that should be holding mine up any longer. I am going to reimburse him if I ever get my refund.

I initially had tax topic 152 with 1 bar until WMR updated for me after the 15th. Then I got the message that my refund is being processes and I’ll get a deposit date when it’s available. All of my info is on the left side but no tax topic anymore.

I was assigned a Tax Advocate. I have two issues with my return…I left a job before Christmas 2016 and I was never sent a W2 for that company so I assumed I didn’t receive any pay for 2017 since I didn’t work at all in 2017. That was missing ($300-$400) and the second issue was my EITC amount got an error as being the wrong amount. I think this is because my income was much lower due to hurricane Irma and people impacted by hurricanes are allowed to take the EITC amount from last year as an alternative method. I think it’s the EITC that booted my refund out of the system and has it stuck in limbo. If you are from a state impacted by a natural disaster that could be your issue.

Also I did order my transcripts early last week but haven’t gotten the yet. Was reading on here that if you can order your transcripts thats a good sign that your return has been processed. But I think thats a load of crap.

@stephanie, I have called about 3 times and they never have any information for me other than “under review and wait 45 days” I called monday and was told as of yet, no letter has been sent out. So I have no flipping idea what is going on. So frustrating.

@rachel I don’t have a tax topic either but I did call and was told they are waiting for me to ID verify but I never got the letter. They resent it on 2/27 so I’m waiting for that to come. Have you checked your transcripts? Mine are still N/A and No Tax record Found for this year.

[Rachel]

@Ryan, thats a little reassuring I guess

Same exact situation with me I have no insight on it besides I went through a similar deal last year and after waiting like we are now my refund popped up like March 8 or 9 so I’m hoping for the same this year
