02/27/2018 PPD State of Ill Tax Refund
Just got notification from Navy Federal Refund is getting released tomorrow :)
IL Comptroller approved my refund Sunday, 25th. Still not showing a refund date on either IL site. Hopefully will be here @ 12am the 27th. Will update tomorrow…
IL Comptroller approved my return Sunday, 25th. Haven’t received refund yet though. Prolly get it at Midnight tonight (27th). We’ll see though. Will update tomorrow.
Nothing has changed for me.
Still no deposit date just check back for one ??
I got an email the morning of the 24th from the comptroller saying my refund has been processed but when I logged in at the comptroller website it says they have not processed it yet. Not hit my card yet.
Mine still says the same thing. I filed and was accepted 2/5/18. When did you all file?
We have received and are currently processing your return. Please continue to check the refund inquiry for an updated status on your refund.
No deposit, but it says it been processed
Mine deposited to my checking account this morning, my wmr still says yourreturn has been processed but a refund date has not been provided yet
Mine says processed but no date
Mine says processed but no refund date maybe Wednesday or Friday I’m guessing.
Yes just got an email today saying it will be posted for me in the next few business days but that’s all it said
WMR still says no refund date provided yet and comptroller site says they have not processed my refund yet…. will update again when I check tomorrow. 6 more days til the 28 days is up, we will see if they are sticking to it this year
We have not yet processed your income tax return refund.
Any updates? I’m still at
We have received and are currently processing your return. Please continue to check the refund inquiry for an updated status on your refund.@lotsofluv Mine hasn’t budged as of yet I am guessing Friday you get money at the earliest or Monday at the latest. They need to hurry the heck up with everyones lol.
My refund is no longer showing on my mytax account and Illinois WMR now shows that my return has been processed and a date for my refund has not been provided yet. Normally just takes a few days for it to be disbursed from this point.
@coiledvipers: I’m guessing they don’t have the money to refund them so they are waiting for the other people to start paying taxes to give us our money… the feds can process millions in a few hours and check for fraud but the state takes a month :\ good luck
@lotsofluv Illinois probably trying to earn some intrest on our cash because they cannot afford what they took our of our paychecks.
Nothing here yet, accepted on the 30th. According to them I should expect 28 days for returns to be processed and refunds to be sent out. This is due to the lengthy processed of protecting me from fraud.
She didn’t seem very willing to help with much of anything
Nothing yet, Wednesday will most likely be the first of same as last year if not next week if they stick to the 4 weeks this year.
Negative I am guessing tomorrow lol if we are lucky
Any Movement yet for anyone ?
On the refund tool for Illinois, it states that they made a change to my return and sent a letter, and that if I have any questions after reading the letter to call. Anyone else gotten a similar message? I still haven’t received the letter, though they claim it was sent early last week. It’s weird because my federal was approved and fine, and I’ve never been sent letters before. I’m wondering what this means, did they reduce my state refund? Need more info? It’s frustrating the not knowing.
I filed on the 25th of January.
Yes, I copied and pasted the message from my email directly, not sure why it says 2016? I never received a text either, which was what I originally signed up for. Is there any way that I can post a screen shot here to show you? Last year, I owed because my employer screwed up my state taxes, so I never needed to track it last year.
I received it, for sure. I paid my mortgage and took my family out to dinner last night.
Here is the email, highlighted the entire page:

Illinois ComptrollerNo change here
They r back up no Change for me
Illinois is Down still maybe they doing big update. Its been down since 2AM CST and as of 643 AM its still down :(
Jessecka Are you sure you got it. What you posted was last year’s letter. At the end it says 2016, this year’s letter will say 2017. I have a feeling you are yanking our chain.
@Jessecka When did you file?
Received mine sometime last night – between midnight and 6am.
Good luck to you all!
The comptroller’s website is down for updates, so maybe some of you will get a date?

I have had the processed with no date message for a week now and finally received this email today at 11:03am (but no text even though I signed up for that as well):

Illinois ComptrollerSo hopefully I will see a deposit tomorrow?
Received text stating ‘(IL Payment) The comptroller has processed your refund you should receive it within 5 business days.’
Filled with JH 1/29, accepted 2/1.
Still no update on IL WMR so maybe tomorrow??
Fingers crossed.
@jcable2 I do not but thank you for the info!
Do you have an account at https://mytax.illinois.gov that is where you can login and see everything and download old returns. Once the balance on there goes to zero the deposit is on the way.
@jcable2 Where do you see your refund amount? All I get when I put in social is this:
We have received and are currently processing your return. Please continue to check the refund inquiry for an updated status on your refund.
Nothing yet. My tax still shows my balance. If they do the same as last year I predict the first any gets money or hears anything is next Wednesday the 21st.
Has anyone had any luck with returns from Illinois yet?
Don’t forget you can check your Illinois State refund status through the comptroller website.
You can also sign up for text and email alerts!Thank you!
@MiMi I have seen them update once at noon on a Tuesday with Friday Deposit. I have also seen them update on Monday morning so its Illinois who knows with them they so broke anyways. They have to earn intrest on our cash.
Anyone know when Illinois Where’s My Refund updates?
@terre Negative all that’s changed since I filed was seeing the amount in mytax Illinois showing the amount I am owed.
Has anyone had movement with Illinois ? mine is still saying processing ?
According to a post on the revenue.il.us site it says that refunds will be issued 4 weeks from the day the return was accepted. We still have a few weeks if that’s the case since they didn’t start accepting them until the 29th :(
Sure hope something positive happens soon.
@ebony Wilson you’re so right.
Yes got mine on February 16th last year a day early because of my deposit method, but my official deposit date was February 17th. I will expect nothing before Feb 23rd since they started a week later this year, and that is if they do 3 weeks like last year instead of the whole 4 weeks they say it takes to do the fraud checks. I would almost bet that I get the state and federal on the same day this year. Got federal on the 23rd last year.
I also got my state refund a day or so sooner than the fed and this year is tricky becasuse who’s to say like the government they will have the money to pay us back considering how “broke” they are. I think thats a bunch of crap they took it with no problem but it sure seems like it is going to be a problem to pay back state and fed!
@Jcable2 last year I got mine right behind you so keep us posted.
Last year I got my State Refund before I got my Federal refund took under 2 weeks to get my money from Illinois. So heres to hoping.
Good to see some of you back. I was looking back at old comments. I’m in a state now that doesn’t take out state tax so that’ll be interesting next year.
Don’t expect anything for 3 to 4 weeks from date accepted. Illinois already said they will hold for 4 weeks to prevent fraud. I was one of the first to get a refund last year. 3 weeks and 2 days exactly. Be sure to sign up with the Comptroller and they will text and email you when they get your refund.
I just checked My Tax Illinois My refund amount is showing on it. (whats owed) Last year it took like 2 weeks for it to show up this time it showed up quickly Filed 1/31 accepted 2/1. Maybe we will get lucky and get fast Illinois refund.
Last year it did take 3 weeks for the refunds to be issued but this year there is a budget so I am hoping we see it towards the end of next week. I have been checking my mytax account and I submitted the 30th, says processed the 31st and the credit is just sitting there. All depends on the comptroller now :\
Filed 1/31 accepted 2/1….now we wait…..
I was also accepted today not sure how long it takes I am having mine direct deposited.
I Filed Yesterday Accepted Today Opening Day How Long You Will Think The Wait Will Be?
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?
