@jeffG. We are in the same boat. Have you called the FTB?
My taxes were free. I’ve called the FTB numerous times and all they say is that it was sent and that they can’t send a new refund until March 1. I hope it comes soon. I’ve never experienced this sort of delay.
So frustrated.
Filed & Accepted 2/3
Issued 2/5Paper check…snail mail…still waiting.
@Nicole and @Kathernine
if you opted for them to take fees out of your refund and state comes first they will take it to repay fees and also if you received an early refund advance it will also go towards that. Your funds will first be sent to the tax preparer bank for them to withdraw fees etc and any amount left they will distribute to you
Accepted 2/2 ca and fed
Still stuck on processing(ca); fed (still received/accepted status)

I dont owe any..Am i the only one being stuck to received/processing mode?it’s been 14 days!!
Nicole, I’m having the same issue with the same dates. It’s very upsetting. I hope we see our deposits soon.
My state refund was issued on February 1, 2019. As of today I have not received it. Spoke with my bank and they have not seen any deposit attempts. Spoke with CA FTB and they state I should have received it. They verifed my account and routing numbers three times but could not tell me what happened to my deposit. Anyone else in the same boat? Today makes business day 11.
Efiled and accepted 2/1 (both)
HR Block online
Federal refund received 2/13
State processing until this morning
Now says no status, and allow 1 more day
Appears I will get final update early in the weekPer other posters throughout the forum, once it changes to no status on the state WMR, a direct deposit date appears the next day.
@ Suzy R., that is a relief to here. I normally get mine within a week. It’s been 10 days and I was starting to panic. I filed mine on 2-4 And I’m still waiting.
..and CONGRATS!!
@ SUZY R Bank or Card?

I’m so glad I found this thread! My refund was stuck on Processing since 2/4–so twelve days–and I just had a feeling that was not right. So I googled, found this thread and the advice to call if it’s been over 72 hours, so I did! The clerk asked me a few questions to verify my identity, and then pushed it through!
So if it’s been after 72 in Processing for you too? Call (916) 845-7088. :)
@bre if you know who you did your early refund advance with call them they told me so much I did mine through Jackson Hewitt and it goes throw meta bank they took it all and I still have a remaining balance that will then come out of my federal however when I called meta bank they told me exactly what was applied and what date
Authorized Friday, February 1, 2019.
Despite direct deposit, still waiting, ten business days later.

Waiting for DD on Turbo Tax card@Rachel I filed 2/4 accepted 2/4 just 1 day before you.I am in the same exact boat.I called (others said they called and they were “put through”) so I figured what do I have to lose.The guy Inspike with said “it’s still processing.if you don’t get it in 35 days call back” I asked if there was anything else that could be done and he said “no just wait”. Ughhhh I have NEVER had to wait for state.Except back In the paper file only days.I did my daughters AFTER mine and she got hers A couple days later🙄.She is 18 and worked part time while in school so to her the 37.00 dd was great 😂. I wish I got mine though.Both my daughters received there’s within 4 days of filing.It just makes me nervous I messed up mine.

Do you owe anything? Student Loans ect? If you do, then they will take your money.
State and Fed taxes is not first come. First serve. Sorry to tell you this. It’s based on many factors. The main one is when and how your employer reports your income. If the income w2 or 1099 hasn’t been logged in through ssa. This will cause either review, delays or even some form of id verify or audit
@Rachel
I filed and accepted on 1/19 had the 30 day wait as well. Just got and issue date of 2/14. I have the eic. Not sure why it’s taking that long to process. Now I have to see how long it takes for the actual deposit.My friend filed 01/29
And got her state 02/08I filed 02/05
I haven’t got my state when I checked it on the website it says processing and 1month more to wait. How come it’s like that? Does anyone here knows why it’s takimg long?I am so pissed. Was supposed to be getting back 1900. Got a deposit of 340. No offsets no nothing. I wanna know wheere the rest of my damn money is.
@Angelica

CA FTB Issued 2/8
DD 2/14 @1:10 a.m. to Walmart MoneycardFilled 2/8
Issued 2/8Hoping to see dd soon . Does anyone think because I got Earned Income Tax Credit . they hold California refund as well as . ???
Filed and accepted 2/4 processing since 2/5
I called because I did my daughters the same day as mine and she already received hers on 2/12.When I called the guy said it’s still processing and call back in 35 days if I don’t hear anything 🙄😕 I have never had issues.
Just an update, I filed on 1/19 through the CA FTB website and have been stuck on processing with the 1 month message ever since. I was going to call on 2/20 but when I checked my FTB account yesterday (2/13), there was a message/correspondence waiting for me. My return has been selected due to “The California Franchise Tax Board employs security measures to protect California taxpayers and the State from tax related identity theft. Your 2018 California individual income tax return was selected for review” and I need to mail or fax them my 2018; W2, 1099 (doesn’t apply to me), ID and pay stubs.
Not an issue, I just wish that the CA FTB had an option where you could sign into your ADP account so that the pay information can be transferred or confirmed immediately. I’ve lived at the same address for decades and have had the same job for well over a decade with relatively few changes in my annual salary. Maybe they are checking to see that I am still alive and kicking, haha. *Le Sigh*
@DGSA I was told to provide my W2s via fax to 916-843-6036. I was told by a rep that after submitting my forms to wait 8 WEEKS (!) for them to process.
Funny how they require you to respond within 30 days of the letter, but will not commit to responding back to you in the same time-frame.
@Cassie, if your California return was issued on 2/11, you will probably get a direct deposit tomorrow morning unless you are having fees taken out for tax prep. Then it might be an extra day but my guess is tomorrow. If you don’t get it tomorrow you probably won’t get it until next Wednesday since we have the weekend, and Monday is a holiday
Accepted 2/6
Issued 2/8
Just got my direct deposit at 1am this morning. Got both my California and my federal at the same time this morning at 1am. Seems like everyone who said 4 business days from issued date were right.Called the number and was told they will need my 1099 does anyone know where I need to send it to … I don’t want to wait for them to send me a letter …
I just want my money! lol
Did anyone else call and told they were done processing but still haven’t gotten a Direct deposit date? They said I completed processing last Thursday and I still haven’t updated on the site.
@Kassie I’d guess you’ll get it tomorrow or by Monday. Mine was issued 2/8 and I just got it this morning 2/14 in my bank account.
Ugh. 2/11 was when they did my refund and I haven’t gotten it. Thinking tomorrow?? Anyone?
Update

Refund issued 2/8
Refund received 2/14❤❤ 4am via BofA DD
So if you went through a tax service if fees were not taken out it will go to them two days before and then they can remove their fees. And send to you. Also it’s not true that they only take from your federal they take their fee from whichever comes first this was taken out of my state I have not received my federal yet thank you. Hope this helps!Update

DD on my chase acc 2/13 @ 11 pmRefund was issued 2/8. Still have not received a deposit on my turbo tax card. :( Anyone else?
I got a strange error message late night last night and then I woke up to an issue date of 2/12 I will post as soon as my add DD hits. Hang tight and call if things don’t seem right. I called with a very “I need your help” attitudue. I lost my job recently to layoff and I made sure to mention “I’m sorry to be a stalker, but I just was laid off so this money is really important to my livelihood” . she was very understanding and I went to “issued” the next day. BTW- Thank you to California for it’s compassion. <3
