unpatiently waiting
No movement here either. It looks like the past couple of years mine wasn’t processed until the beginning of March. So maybe next week.
Still nothing…..
unpatiently waitingStill noting here from 2/5. Processing, but at least this weekend there are no notations on the website.
Mitch MeHi Jennifer. Did your message on where’s my refund ever give you a date for deposit or did it only say a date has not been determined and then it was in your account ?
Mitch MeMy message says no date determined yet. How long does it say this before the return is actually sent? Will the message ever list an actual date or will it just go from this message to my bank?
StillWaitingHas any February Illinois state filers seen any progress (finished processing, received a refund)?
Still nothing on my end. Illinois Where’s my refund says it’s been received and is processing and Comptroller says they haven’t received it. 😕
@imbackagainandpreggo
Thank you. That means there is hope for me then haha. FED is messed up this year with their updates. Hopefully I’ll get state this week. Was the where’s my refund for Illinois or state comptroller ever updated for you?Why does the comptroller site tell me it’s not done processing yet.. And the Illinois tax site telling me it’s processed and a date can’t be given yet. Is it done processing yet or not lol
SarahStill at being processed for like 3 wks still
Mine still says processed .. waiting on Comptroller to release funds
Any luck ?
When do we expect DDD from the Comptroller??
Okay the website said “What does it mean when “Where’s My Refund?” says that a date for my refund has not been determined?
Once your refund is approved, we release the information to the Comptroller to issue your refund. The Comptroller then releases detailed information back to us about your refund. Until we receive information back from the Comptroller, we are unable to provide you a date for your refund. Once we receive the information, Where’s My Refund? will update with more details. This process usually takes between 24 and 48 hours.
glad to hear @OhSoTired! I checked this morning and still in the green as well. hopefully we wake up to some movement on Monday, then BAM, comptroller for the win. :)
unpatiently waitingWebsite is currently down. I hope we see some good news in the morning.
OhSoTiredThanks for the information @Dave. Very helpful. There was nothing showing up in mine last week at all, today the amount is there in green. Waiting for it to turn to “0” then we will we be moving along. :)
Team,
This has been the trend the last few years in IL, hope it helps-
1.) Log In – MyTaxIllinois, if it shows a Balance ($555) in green font, it is processing.
2.) It will turn that Balance to ($0) zero dollars eventually. At that point it is done processing.
3.) That payment amount will be directly forwarded to the Comptroller for your payment. https://myrefund.illinoiscomptroller.com/
When they process, it’s a day or two until payment. (Comptroller is basically cutting the check, few holds ups from there.)DaveTeam,

I filed 01-25-19 accepted on 01-28-19 I have finished processing today just waiting on the comptroller to release funds.
Checked Illinois Where’s my refund? and it’s still showing we have received your return and it is processing…
I reckon there is always tomorrow.
RubenWell my account updated to we have processed your return however a date has not been determined..any guess on how long it take to dd after getting this message?
Well I would have had my refund today, but apparently TurboTax is run by a 3 year old & can’t explain to me why after inputting my bank acct info several times before efiling I am now having a paper check mailed to me- even though my fed is set up for DD! DO NOT USE TURBOTAX
I’m pretty sure I was accepted January 14th. As soon as my federal accepted I was able to file state but not until the 28th did I get the email from TT saying they accepted it.
@imbackagainandpreggo
When did you file?Illinois posted to my account.. Minus my state offset. Happy momma!
MibrattFiled on 1-20…ofcourse I’m still processing Idk who is slower…fed or state!!! Everything is processing with no dam end in sight😵😵😵
When did you guys file?
My state just posted
teredNothing still says a date has not been determined ugg
unpatiently waitingThe website tells you it won’t be updated until the 20th.
DenaeDoubt anything will update till Tuesday, as Monday is a state holiday.
RubenNope…still says we are currently processing your return
Same thing yall. IL need to stop playing with these coins!
@tered mine says that too
TeredMy state updated to done prosing but a refund date has not been determined anyone know how long now
MaremYour 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.
Team,
No update here either. Pretty sure the MyTaxIL site updates tues/wed by morning. On 2/5 is around when my balance went into the green. Been sitting there since… Everyone have a great weekend! Catch you next week for some Direct Deposits!!! :)
unpatiently waitingWhat time do they update?
“Requests submitted through MyTax Illinois after the close of business 2/11/19 may not be processed and updated in the system until 2/14/19.”
Well gotta wait for a tax ID I’ll wait till next year I guess I hope we get our states soon guys hang in there
OhSoTiredYes @jazminj
Do I have to make a mytax account to see the numbers in green letters
I read somewhere where they said it would take around 4 weeks for them to process the electronic returns. If that is accurate, I still have another week, give or take. They show that it was accepted on 1/22 but they didn’t actually start processing them until 1/28 I believe. So the end of this week will be the 3rd week for me. No movement yet. When I log in, my amount is there in green, so that’s probably good. Waiting for it to turn to a zero. *drumming fingernails on the table.
Come on Illinois, get with the program.
No movement at all .. just still processing
Anyone have any movement?
unpatiently waitingThanks Dave
@nonstopI had to request a Letter ID on 2/7. Received it today 2/11. Logged in and it’s green. SO that came some piece of mind. Just waiting now.

RubenEvery other state getting theirs..mann.come on Illinois!
Had anyone heard of any confirmed movement on Illinois state taxes ?
MichaelE-filed our taxes on 1-28 it was accepted on 1-29 received our refund in our bank yesterday, 1-8-19. We filed with credits and somehow our refund was dramatically smaller than turbo tax had concluded. We are supposed to be receiving something in the mail explaining this. I’m confused as we don’t owe money. It’s also weird we got it back this fast. I’m hoping this is just an error ( I wouldn’t be shocked, this is illinois) because we’ve never gotten back State before Federal.
MeganI was accepted 1/29 and still have the “we have received and are currently processing your return” message. Last year we were accepted 2/2 and got our deposit on 2/27. Fingers crossed they get moving!
Theresacould be til March or the end of Feb Illinois takes forever
How long is it taking this year for Illinois tax refunds ???
Update: I had to set it to desktop view on my phone for some reason and that seemed to resolve it. Hopefully it gets accepted this time!!
I still can’t seem to file mine…grrrr
Filed thru H&R Block on 1/31. Rejected state on 2/4. Refiled 2/5 accepted an hr after. Checked this morning and it says they have received and are currently processing my refund.
Dell Jayi received this message
When processing your return, we made a change and have sent you a letter dated February 05, 2019 to explain that change. If you have questions after you have read the letter, you may call 1 800 732 8866.
is this bad?
am i being audited?@missmarymack83 I’m having the same problem and used H&R online as well.
Sarah@sobrokeicantevenpayattention, mine switched to that Friday I noticed too
EbonyI am wanting to know if the 21 days are also for the filers with children
Okay mine now says “We have received and are currently processing your return. Please continue to check the refund inquiry for an updated status on your refund.” Before it said “being processed”, not sure what or if that means anything.
Filed 1/31 thru H&R Block. Just got an email & text saying my Illinois State has been rejected due to processing issue and can’t be sent to my state. I haven’t had a chance to look into it but was wondering if anyone else had this issue?
RubenSucks to see all these other states getting deposits today…still processing for me.Come on Illinois…
Being processed…
RubenStill processing…
KimberlyI was told by my tax guy that Illinois wouldn’t start handing out refunds until the end of February.
SarahAs of 01/30/2019 at 10:10pm my Illinois refund status states that they have received my return and are currently processing it..
not_my_nameFiled on February 4 and still no progress.
Message has been unchanged for over a month:
We have received and are currently processing your return. Please continue to check the refund inquiry for an updated status on your refund.
Anybody else stuck?
Brian TomassI completed my Federal taxes and already received my refund from them. I filed the Illinois taxes and received a letter titled ”Return” Correction Notice” and they are only looking for explanation on my Self Employment Calculations.
Brief note. I made money in Self Employment in 2017 and about 2/3 of that amount I either have 1099’s , track records or both. The other, was paid through various gift cards, which is paid through a 3rd party survey which is most of my income stems from. Multiple online survey companies. When I take a survey and it directs me to a third party for a at home use product, and many Focus Groups Studies. per say, and in return I fill out a survey and at the end a code pops up to claim a GC of choice usually around 10-25.00 each time, no emails, just a thank you and quick print. How do I put this other 1/3 down on the Notice to return other than explaining it to them as I am with you.?
AmandaWhy does comptroller say not processed when the other website said it was for almost 5 days, now it says no info is available.
AmandaI now have the “we can not proccess your request” message and comptroller says they have not processed my return! I was on processed for 4 days! What the heck?
just hit my account
Dujuan KeeferHelp!!..I checked wmr and it says they cannot process my request and i should call IDOR 2morrow to speak with a rep! But i got 2 emails saying they processed my return and it shld be deposited in a few days!!??.. Confused 😕!!!
IRSlimboOn 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.
