Still waiting since Jan. No communication from the state.
Still have not recive my state refund
@denise I’m in the exact boat. I submitted and was accepted on 1/25/17 and was checking every week as it was still saying processing. I was told last week mine is being Manually reviewed and no time table for completion. I have looked every where for a answer on time frame and have come up empty. Still waiting. If you find out anything before me please let me know
I have an Illinois state tax question…filed 1/25, accepted 1/30. I’ve been calling every week since for the status and just been told “processing”. So yesterday 4/10 I was finally told I’m in review. Do you know how long that normally takes for Illinois?
State and Federal accepted 01/27/2017. Fed released last month, still no state.
I submitted my illinois taxes on 1/25. Today is 3/27 and it’s still saying processing when I check the Illinois where’s my refund website. Anyone have ideas? Or similar issue
I’m getting concerned. I was on PATH for federal and got my refund on the 22nd. Strangely a friend of mine filed almost 2 weeks after me (I filed on 2/3). His state of Illinois says done processing and mine is still processing? Anyone else have any ideas?
I got my Illinois State refund at 12:09 AM early morning on 2/17/2017 I was accepted on 01/24/2017 @ 12:25 AM CST
It is definitely the Illinois return. Deposited into my Walmart Money Card and says state of Illinois and the refund amount of my Illinois refund.
SUre this was your Illinois refund not FED?
@Jcable2 good for you so now I feel better.
My refund was just deposited into my account.
Dear Taxpayer:
Thank you for signing up for the email notification through the Illinois Comptroller’s Office. We processed your tax return payment.
If you signed up for direct deposit, you should expect your payment within the next few business days. If you asked for a paper check, you should expect your payment in your mailbox in approximately five business days.

Illinois ComptrollerJust got a text from the comptroller. “Subject:IL Payment
The Comptroller has processed your refund. You should receive it within 5 business days.” Northern the comptroller or Illinois refund site changed but atleast I know it will be here anytime now. Checked my bank nothing yet.I just got a text that my Illinois refund has been processed and I should receive it within 5 business days.
Recieved this text update this morning……..
Subject:IL Payment
The Comptroller has processed your refund. You should receive it within 5 business days. Unsub: http://bitMy credit balance was gone by the afternoon yesterday so hopefully I should see in bank in a couple days. Still getting message that return has been processed but no date has been given.
Your return has been processed; however a date for your refund has not been determined. Please continue to check the refund inquiry for an updated status on your refund.
Bout Dang time Illinois.
Mine updated today also to say it has been processed and a future date will be given for the refund. My account on mytax shows that the refund has been taken off my account. I normally see the payments off there within 3 days.
Where’s my refund said processing for the last week but when I logged into my account it said processed and showed my credit balance. Today for the first time said processed but no date has been given. :(
Holy crap! Got my Illinois refund this morning, was not expecting it until March sometime, yay!
Mytax website is showing it is done being processed and my negative balance. The refund tracker shows still being processed. So basically just waiting on Illinois to decide to send out my money.
That’s amazing Tam, Illinois comptrollers office says no refunds have been issued yet and that some returns may finish processing this week but more than likely not until next week. We should check the website periodically to see if our returns have completed processing yet.
None EIC filers already received their refund. My husband filed the week of January 16 and got his back Saturday at midnight.
Anyone hearing anything yet, My mytaxillinois account says mine was processed the 23rd and shows my refund amount due on my account but doesn’t say anything about when it will be issued. Some stuff on the comptroller website has been updated while others haven’t been. The non updated stuff says March 1st for beginning of refunds while other stuff says beginning of February for refunds :D Illinois is such a joke sometimes!!
Filled Feb 13. Received Ill tax refund 3/9. First time ever that we got state back before fed.
Not the only one. Waiting here too.
Am I the only person still waiting for my Illinois refund? I filed on 2/4/16. I filed my wife’s on 3/2/16. I know that they didn’t start releasing refunds until 3/1/16. When I log in through MyTax IL, I can see that my wife’s has already been processed. Mine has not. The refund status site and the comptroller’s site just show that they are being processed. I hate not knowing.
@Torrez not sure why Illinois is taking so long!! Mine was accepted on the Feb 7….still processing
I’m STILL waiting on my refund! Still says processing. Why is it taking so long?
HAs anyone gotten an Illinois refund yet? What is going on?
Ok so my sister filed the same day i filed my husbands her state was accepted on turbo tax and i did his through taxact. his is still pending. did it on the 2nd of february. Now my dad’s we did his on the 20th of January and his is still pending also. Should I go through it again and see if i did something wrong or what??
UPDATE! They still haven’t received it, it is still showing as pending on Tax Act, and I can’t figure out where to go on the Tax Act site to complain. Maybe I just need more coffee.
Has anyone else been accepted yet?
Well looks like Illinois is starting to accept state returns. When I check my status now, it says “Your current year’s return is not showing on our computer files. If you filed electronically, please allow up to 7 days from the date you transmitted your return for it to appear on our computer files. If you mailed your return, please allow up to ten weeks from the date you mailed your return for it to appear on our computer files.” Should I wait and give it a few more days to update possible to re-submit?
@Annie. Exactly. Did the responsible thing and filed my state and federal on 1/25. Not early or on the first day of filing, and yet I and so many others are still getting screwed!
But you know if we screwed around until the last minute and didn’t pay them, they would be threatening us!
I submitted mine on the 20th with my Federal. Guess its a waiting game, hopefully it changes soon.
*correction: not accepting e-filed tax returns yet. Sorry.
On the site’s main page there’s a disclaimer that states they’re accepting e-filed tax returns yet. *sighs*
I know they are starting late, but on the site it says to please wait seven days for the return to show. It has been seven days and my return hasn’t even been acknowledged. Do I just sit and wait, or should I start inquiring?
