CA tax told me they were going to BARELY send a letter requesting more info on my dependents ok I would assume I’m only getting the EIC for my grandson who is 4. So my question is how do I provide proof residency for him. Anyone who could help I would greatly appreciate it.
Woohoo!, I got my CA refund today (2/22)! Good luck everyone and see you all next year!

SammieRefund hit this morning! 🙌🏻
MichelleHow long is it taking to hit your bank or credit Union once it says refund issued?
@Stillpending88 Awesome! Check the FTB refund site tonight after 11:30pm Pacific and you should see your status updated to issued.
My refund was issued on 2/10. Still no DD. I bank with BOA. Anyone received theirs?
Mine was issued 2/10. Still waiting
AdamaJust received my ca state return . Issued 2/12
AdamaMine was issued 2/12 waiting also
B. SimonDid anyone get notice that their state refund was issued & they bank with Bank Of America & HAVE NOT received it DD yet?
I am hearing some people received it already through other banks.
I’m confused
ronchecked my ca refund and it says “We authorized your refund on Saturday, February 12, 2022” but as of today the 15th i dont see it in my bank and nothing shows on pending.
*Update* I called (916) 845-7088 and he kind woman who answered said that a letter was issued yesterday and put me on a brief hold. She asked me a few questions (personal info, employer and the bank my DD was being sent to) and afterwards said that she processed my refund and I should receive an update with a DDD. I’ll provide an update with any changes. *End of
Still processing 88@coolinsocal
Thank u soooo much! I just called and they said they were able to push my return thru. They did say the direct deposit will take up to one month to receive. I hope that not the case. Thanks again.@Stillpending 88
Call (916) 845-7088 press 2. Ask the representative to review your return. I had to fax in information and within 2 days I called back to the same number and the rep “pushed through” my tax return and CA FTB refund site updated to “refund issued” around 11:30pm the same day.So as I was waiting to speak to someone on the phone .I seen that a letter requesting info / verification from me was sent out today .accepted the 24th and have been processing since .
This is big difference seeing as last year I got my state back like in a weekStill pending 88Hi! Mine has been “processing” since 1/25. I called today and they said I need to wait a month. What is this “push” people are calling to get? Any ideas on how I can get my refund processed and issued?
marimine was issued sometime between friday night and saturday morning, but hasn’t hit my bank account. i’m using a prepaid card, so hopefully it hits by wednesday. thank you for the info, mari808, and congrats to everyone who got theirs already!
Cali GurlMy refund has finally hit my account!! Good luck everyone and hope you guys get yours soon 💕
Mari808Mari,
Check your account summary.
Mari808Just received my DD 🥳 See you guys next year!
mariok, now my account says processed with a balance of 0.00. where do you guys see whether or not it’s authorized? the girl on the phone yesterday said i had a small offset, so i wonder if that will slow things down for me at all.
Cali GurlI bank with BofA. I’m crossing my fingers in hopes it’s in my account Monday. I have received my state Friday night/Saturday morning one year, maybe it will post tonight.
1/26 filed and accepted same day
1/27 two checks saying received
2/10 10:10am called for push
2/10 11:30pm authorized
2/11 5am FTB said processed and return availableMari808Cali girl
It was ‘issued’ 2/8. If you’re using a traditional bank I wouldn’t expect it to hit your account until Monday/Tuesday. If you’re using a prepaid card then today or tomorrow.
Cali GurlUgh so frustrating!!! Still no deposit despite refund being issued on 2/8. I called the number again this morning, and the person I spoke with said to allow 4 weeks for the deposit to hit my account. 4 FREAKING WEEKS!!!!
Authorized as of midnight.
Will update when received. Ftb account stil says received@mari
No update.
Looks like I’ll be calling againmarithanks for the heads up! i just called back and they had me answer a few verification questions and pushed mine through. she didn’t give me a ddd though, so i’ll just have to wait it out some more and see. trying to make a ftb account right now. fingers crossed we all get our deposits soon.
Mari808Then first thing I noticed was my refund showed in my account summary, then my credits updated. This was all the same day I called for a push.
Yes. I called at 10:10am
The refund status shows two checks still
Just says received in my accountMari808You should see changes throughout the day. Do you have access to a Ftb account?
Mari
I called back and got someone different and he said he’s pushing it through. No updates as of yet thoughsame, sammie. D’: called in and they said they sent a <span id=”IL_AD4″ class=”IL_AD”>letter</span> in the mail and i will have to fax and verify. this is the first time i’ve ever had to do that. does anyone know what the verification is, or could it be a number of different things?
marisame, sammie. D’: called in and they said they sent a letter in the mail and i will have to fax and verify. this is the first time i’ve ever had to do that. does anyone know what the verification is, or could it be a number of different things?
Cali GurlRefund authorized on 2/8 but it’s still not in my account. UGH…..I’m hoping it’s in my account tomorrow :-(
So I called them back and got someone different. He said he’s pushing it through. How long did it take for it all to change after the call?
1/28 – Filled
2/8 – Called for push (morning) refund status received
2/8 – Lost check marks and received the msg “We are unable to provide your refund status online”. (Evening)
2/9 – FTB acct showing refund status as processed
2/9 – refund authorized (changed after 11pm)RosieroseroseI do not understand. Everytime I call Ftb for California they tell me my refund was approved on 2/7 or that it was “processed” but when I log into my account, I don’t see that. It only says “received” it’s been since the 21st I was accepted. I was annoying and I have called Ftb everyday since Monday. All the reps have told me it was processed on 2/7 but I don’t see that in my bank. And on the check my refund status it says processing and 1 month message
Got through to the number below and I’m having to verify and fax in information 😭😭
Mari8081/28 – Filled
2/8 – Called for push (morning) refund status received
2/8 – Lost check marks and received the msg “We are unable to provide your refund status online”. (Evening)
2/9 – FTB acct showing refund status as processed
2/9 – refund authorized (changed after 11pm)Mari808Just checked my account and refund was authorized 2/9 but I had an offset with funds taken already. Can’t remember if that means remainder will be direct deposited or mailed in a check?
Mari808Just checked my FTB account and it finally says processed! Balance still reading $0.00 but definitely expecting to wake up to an “issued 2/9” message 😊 will keep y’all in the loop
RosieroseroseI called Ftb and they said it was processed on 2/7, however Ftb account only says received and still processing on site. I don’t get it. I’ve called several times and they tell me it was approved. But can take 4 weeks? Ugh.
GigiwantsherrefundMine says the same! Are usually get it the next day but for some reason it did not post this morning. Fingers crossed
Mari808Cali Girl
It depends who you bank with. I always use my Netspend card for taxes because I get my refunds sooner. I always get my state in 3 days after DDD. I’m not too sure about regular banks I believe within 5 days.
Cali GurlUpdate ****
Checked FTB website this morning and it now says Refund issued on February 8, 2022. How soon after the refunds are issued does it usually hit your bank account?Mari808Still haven’t gotten a DDD. But there’s movement. I lost both my check marks and now have the “We are unable to provide your refund status online using the information you provided” message. Also, before in my account summary in my ftb account it didn’t show any info for my 2021 return. Now it shows with my credit amount. Balance and debit are still 0.00. Hopefully I’ll update tonight with a DDD.
Tklove@jordanK
You must have gotten same girl, very young sounding super nice and friendly. Confirmed amount confirmed she processed it and confirmed how I would recieve it ect. Said it could take 4 weeks to get it but typically dd is much quickerJordanKCan confirm that a very nice lady is working today. Called the number listed here and pressed 2. She processed my return and verified how I was receiving my refund. Love this forum for info like this.
TkloveJust got through to a very nice lady who actually pulled up my account and processed my return while i was on the phone :) should update tomorrow as processed or later today and I expect about 4 days for actual direct deposit
Cali Gurl@Mari808 thanks for giving that info. I called that number and got someone right away. It looks as if my tax preparer either made a mistake or didn’t submit my return. Ugh
Mari808I called (916) 845-7088 pressed 2. I had to verify a couple things and it was pushed through. Will update when Ftb changes.
Mick WhiteReceived Ca refund this Morning .
Filed on 2/1Cali GurlI’m also still waiting. I filed on 1/19, and my return isn’t even showing up on FTB website. I’ve received my federal already. I’ve never had to wait this long for my state refund.
PiinkDuhhI filed 2/3
Accepted 2/3
When I checked on 2/4 I had the 1 month message
When I checked on 2/5 it updated to Issued on 2/4Will update with DDD
Still sitting in limbo. Ftb says it received but not processed and no notices sent as of yet
Mari808Still waiting….
Filed 2/1
Accepted 2/2
Refund sent 2/3Never seen a turn around so fast in all my years.
Anyone else having issues getting your pin to make an online account? This is 3 years in a row now for me
marii also usually get my state refund super fast, i believe in a week or less for the last couple years. i filed and was accepted 1/25, no changes in dependents or anything, and expected mine to be issued this week, since it’s usually that fast. but mine says processing along with the 1 month message (i’m not sure if i’ve ever had that or not, so i’m hoping it doesn’t mean i have to id verify like some others have said).
Cali GurlI’m not understanding what the hold up is this year with California FTB. I filed on 1/19, and have already received my federal, but the FTB website still shows no record of my return. I wasn’t concerned at first, but now I’m starting to wonder what the holdup is. I normally receive my state refund quick, and always before my federal.
Mari808I’m still processing as well with the 1 month message. I usually process in a week but the last time I had the 1 month message I had to call in and ID verify.
I filed and accepted 1/28
Filed: 1/30
Accepted: 1/30My return is processing and I have the 1 month message. This has been the routine for me for over a decade and I generally receive my refund 21 – 30 days after I file.
Filed 1/20 still processing too. Says to wait the 4 weeks. Went through the same thing last year ugh!
RrbStill waiting on my cali tax refund. Filed 1/18. Still processing. Anyone here still waiting?
Filed 1/28
Accepted 1/30I have the dreaded 1 month message. I remember the year before last that meant we had to call to ID verify. Called this morning and the guy just told me to wait the 4 weeks smh
Me too. Stressed to the max right now

MarcyangieDreabee17
I have been processing for a week. I’m not sure when they will issue it. How do you see your credit?Cali GurlChecked FTB website and it says it’s unable to provide me refund status online. Ugh…….. not too concern as I’ve had this message before. I filed on 1/19 by the way.
