@taxmama Yes thank you! So hopefully any day now
-
@ImpatientlyWaiting I had 2 verification letters I verified the last on 2/21 and I received my deposit today. Hopefully this helps.
-
Got a letter for extra verification on the 19th, uploaded the documents same day. Still no change in status. Anyone know how long the state usually takes to process additional info?
-
Filed on the 4th, accepted on the 5th. Mtc still just says processing. Hopefully I’ll get some sort of update by the end of the week 🙃
-
I have ddd of tomorrow and it didn’t hit yet so I wouldn’t expect it early.
-
Anyone with DDD of 2/12 get their deposit yet? Nothing in CK account yet, hoping to get it today! My MA Tax Connect showing zeros so that has to be good.
-
Filed 1/25, got a request for taxpayer verification 1/30, submitted documentation (social security card, drivers license, electric bill) 1/30 as well, documentation received 1/31. No movement since. I am a hybrid worker who only works in MA ~20% of the time so am getting ~6k refund. Need to pay state taxes in VT so I’m frustrated how slow it is. Any idea of how long it will take for my ID to be verified?
-
Got a ddd of 2/12 hoping to get it early!
-
I checked the “more” section and there is no indication of when my 2024 refund will be issued. Perhaps a request for information letter will be sent with regard to providing documentation in support of the circuit breaker tax credit. Just speculating.
-
@jakester
Did you go to the more section and see if a refund had been issued? Cause if it updated to zero that could signify that they paid you.
-
Has anyone claimed the senior circuit breaker tax credit for tax year 2024? filed my return including Schedule CB on 1/20/25; return accepted on 1/24/24 with the claimed refund amount , including the CB credit, shown on masstaxconnect in parentheses (green). on 2/06/25 received notice of corrected return made by DOR; Balance now shows zero in green. No dd date indicated as of yet.
-
@dewy around 5-6k. Still no update for me yet. I would have to assign that if there is an issue with my return i would have been informed by now. Still processing still in green
-
@VegasNich. Without getting too specific, how big is big? Mine is relatively big as I withhold extra from state to pay for my fed so mine is in the 6999 to 9999 range. Mine approved a day after many who filed the same day. I’m assuming mine is kinda on the large side but not sure where they draw the line. 10k, 25?, 5? Not sure. Hope that helps.
-
No change on masstaxconnect but on where is my refund updated to ddd of feb 11th…. so I’m good.
-
Updated to DDD of 2/11 tonight.
-
@SamfromMA where’s my refund still isn’t showing a date and MTC still shows received and my refund amount in green in parentheses but when I called the number it gives you on where’s my refund it said my refund had been direct deposited on February 11th 2025 so I’m thinking it will update tomorrow.
-
Called to get an update and was told that my refund is going a second processing because its bigger. Anyone know about this?
-
Filed on 1/29 was still in the green yesterday today got my 2/10 ddd today. Got my deposit about an hour ago!
-
Verified yesterday and back to processing this morning.
-
Accepted 1/27…still processing
-
Mine accepted 2/3
No ddd yet… say still processing :( -
This has been the faster year ever! I filed and was accepted 2/4, refund in green on MTC on 2/5 and updated to DDD of 2/10 tonight/early morning, 2/6!!
-
Yes still in green parentheses but most likely will change in the am
-
Updated to DD 2/10 . Checked after 8pm. Filed Jan 22nd
-
In account it is still showing amount in green parentheses
-
Just checked and have direct deposit approved for 2/10
-
Filed 1/20 , accepted 1/22 , deposit date 2/10
-
Got a deposit date for feb 10th!
-
My refund popped up in green today 2 days after accepted.
-
Accepted since 1/24 and on 1/30 a letter was sent out for verification. Letter is arriving today 2/5.
-
Here I thought it was going to be super fast. I filed and was accepted yesterday, 2/4 and today, 2/5 it shows my amount in green on MTC
-
Nothing yet. Processing since 1/24
Amount in green parentheses -
Any movements? I’ve been processing since the 23rd
-
@Ames127 did you update?
-
Same! Filed 1/23, accepted 1/24 still showing received with our amount in green in parentheses and processing in the wmr ma. Hopefully we will update by Monday 🤞
-
It’s still saying processing since the 24th. When I sign in it’s showing the amount in (green).
-
H
-
Finally after back and forth got a real answer. My refund was released for direct deposit on 2/20 but hasn’t been processed(sent to bank yet) so no date. Told soon to see a date
Also if you don’t want to wait for a letter message then and say you are having trouble with your mail can we verify another way. They ask you to upload 3 ids and that’s it
-
State accepted 2/10
turned to green refund number 2/12
turned to green zero with dd date of feb 27 2/23Best of luck to all….
-
How long does it take to receive a letter from them? I have been waiting since 2/14. Would they be able to send it electronically to me?
-
Mass. Department of revenue is really starting to irritate me. They have really been dragging their feet the past few years.
-
2/6 verification letter lost in mail
2/14 verified by sending ids on mtc
2/16 verified back to processing on where’s my refund says received on mtc
2/20 amount that has been in green now zero. My refund was adjusted but only by a few bucks
2/22 still not date still amount 0 I messaged mtc and was told processing should receive soonPain this year
-
@Nicole Last year when I had a question about my return I messaged them through MTC and received a prompt reply. You could try doing that….
-
My refund was adjusted and it took an extra week to get a deposit date. My date was for 2/20 but got the money today on my credit karma around 12:30pm
-
If the Department of Revenue adjusted my refund is there a chance that means its processed? I’ve never had that happen so I’m curious.
-
So if I have CK & a ddd for State Return of 2/20 when do I get it ? I recall getting it earlier but idk I’ve seen two people say they got it 2 days early in Mass my best friend has hers in hand from the mail. So idk.
-
Updated with a date for 2/20 finally! I filed 1/25 See Yall next year good luck!
-
Supposedly got direct deposit last Friday the 9th. I use an old tax software and apparently I had the wrong banking information in there. Will they just cut me a check? Does anyone know how long this takes? Thank you! PS filed 1/23 accepted 1/24. Refund sent 2/9 to closed bank acct.
-
Still nothing I filed 1/25. first year filing married don’t know if that affected my return
-
I filed 1/25 & on 2/9 I got a letter with a code to verify my identity. On 2/12 it went back to processing, around 9pm tonight I got a DDD of 2/16
-
I have a feeling that there will be some updates starting between 9-10pm tonight. Keep an eye on mass tax connect.
-
Filed 2/10/24 accepted 2/10 showed as processing yesterday. Today shows with number in green 2/13
-
Got Mass tax refund DD approval date for Feb 9th… But nothing has hit my accnt yet. Will update once it does
And yes I double checked DD info to ensure it was the correct info
:( -
Of course they sent it to my old address in which I don’t have access too. Clearly have a mailing address they ignored
-
My intuition tells me tomorrow night around 9-10 pm DDD will show up.
-
No updates here, amount back to 0 last Friday and that’s about it. Seems like they only work couple days a week😐
-
Any updates anyone ?
-
I got my letter yesterday in mail, just had to put code in. It said some of my info changed from last year so that’s why I got chosen for verification, I did recently move, so I did that yesterday morning. Still no update tho for me or my boyfriend. Still says something about letter being sent when I track them and amount still in green when I log on. I’m hoping to update tomorrow
-
So frustrating waiting for a letter. I hope they sent it to my mailing address on file and not my residential (different I moved and didn’t update it)
-
On the 8th my amount was adjusted, today on tax connect I went back to all zeroes. Now waiting on ddd hopefully tomorrow , looks like I only update early am only.
-
Has anyone had any updates in the past 2 days? I filed 1/25 and still haven’t recieved any news. Do they update daily around the clock or certain days and times?
-
@Adam
This happened to me one year before, they sent a pin and I had to go online and put it in and had my refund like 2 days later. I’m hoping that’s all it is again. Still sucks tho -
Waiting on the letter too. What do they need to verify. I already submitted my w2 with my tax stuff since I processed it on MTC
-
My boyfriends verifications have been processed since yesterday but no updates, still says message about letter when tracking and amount still there in green when log on…I’m still waiting to get letter in mail, was mailed on 2/5 and says to give 10-14 days but I don’t think, hoping, it don’t take that long
-
Updated over night. DDD 2-12. I filed 2-1, accepted 2-3. I work over nights so I checked at like 4am and had no change so it must have updated recently.
-
updated overnight
green zero on MTC
accepted 1/31/2024
Your refund has been approved with a deposit date of 12-Feb-2024. Please allow 3-5 business days for the refund to be deposited. -
good info DS thanks, I’m one day behind you accepted on 1/31.
-
Hey everyone! I’ve been “received” with negative refund balance since I was accepted the 30th of January. Checked at 11am this morning and was still the same. Decided to check one more time before giving up for tomorrow just now (2:11 pm) and now have a 0.00 balance. Checked the refunds page and have my refund dated for Feb 9, 2024 scheduled.
Thought I’d post to give more data points for people wondering if MTC will update throughout the day
-
On MTC it reads the same. I check it on WMR and it says additional information required and they mailed something. Always something lol. Annoying they can’t just put it online
-
I checked earlier today and still processing but just checked now at almost 10pm and it says “refund issued by direct deposit” so it’s done!
-
Just updated tonight!
Your refund has been approved with a deposit date of 9-Feb-2024. Please allow 3-5 business days for the refund to be deposited. -
Mine is till processing. Was accepted 1/23 and refund amount in green since 1/25. SamfromMA
-
Mine is till processing. Was accepted 1/23 and refund amount in green since 1/25.
-
No update on mine yet. Hoping for one overnight
-
So me and my boyfriend updated today, but of course it updated saying more info needed and a letter would be sent. My boyfriends I was able to look online and said it was chosen for verification so just had to upload his w-2, paystub, and id, which I did early this AM. Of course mine says a letter will be sent in 10-14 days and I’m not able to look at it online.
-
Just so everyone is informed, the green amount being there does NOT mean you are processed. That is just the amount they owe to you. When that balance goes back to zero, then you are processed. Don’t shoot the messenger, that’s just how it works.
-
Ya mine is still saying received with the amount in green and processing when I track it…I’m thinking it’ll update by tomorrow with DDD and have it Wed…at least that’s what I’m hoping lol 😂
-
Return done on MA Tax Connect 2/1. 2/2 said processing with refund amount in green. Today says received with amount in green. If I check where’s my refund says processing
-
Status on MTC

-
@Jenjenn
Your amount has been in green since 1/26?
Mine had $0 in green for days until it changed to my refund amount in green, now just waiting for a date
-
My MA return has been green since 1/24. Still processing.
-
@MA payer
Oh wow it’s already green, and that’s what I would of done too lol
-
filed on MA connect, green number
back to turbo tax next year.
-
@MA payer
That’s BS! After all the money they charge and you have to wait even longer because their system sucks
-
H&R bug H&R say their system and MA not talking to each other until Feb 10!
Seems MA takes longer every year
Still not accepted.Still waiting
MA payer
I filed Wednesday 1/24/2024, still waiting to be accepted. -
@MA payer
You sure you officially filed and sent it in because all the forms weren’t ready until 1/25. I had to log back into turbo on 1/25 and send it in
-
Seems MA takes longer every year
Still not accepted.Still waiting
MA payer
I filed Wednesday 1/24/2024, still waiting to be accepted. -
@Ida….same here, Filed 1/25 accepted 1/26 amount showing in green as of 1/29…still showing processing though, I can’t remember after it turns green how long it was until I got return
-

-
Still waiting
MA payer
I filed Wednesday 1/24/2024, still waiting to be accepted. -
Filed 1/25 accepted 1/26 amount showing in green as of this morning. 1/29
-
@Milly I don’t think it matters if you pay it or let them take it out, it won’t hold it up
-
I apparently owe MA 40 dollars in taxes.. should I pay that before I file or will they just take it out of my return. I don’t need any hold ups lol
-
I apparently owe taxes to Ma for 40 dollars.. will they just take that out of my return or should I pay it before I file?
-
My state got accepted 1/26, still saying not found though on MA connect…My federal got accepted 1/19 but I’m on path…I tried looking at last year and I posted I got a DDD of 2/8 for federal but was on path last year to 🤔
-
I filed Wednesday 1/24/2024, still waiting to be accepted.
-
My MA return was accepted this morning.
-
Callie
I did through FreetaxUSA
-
Is all the forms available now ? I tried to file last week said the forms wasn’t available yet
-
I got a letter on massconnect recomp Notice of Change says if I owe I would receive a letter by mail or would see it on massconnect to pay but don’t see anything so i called last week and they said it was processed that was last Tuesday and said I should see a deposit within 2 weeks or so when I check status it still says processing so I have no idea I talked to few people at work and same thing with the state refund taking long with no answers
-
I also updated to 0 balance
I emailed and was told my refund was approved and wait 10-14 days for issuance 🙄
-
I updated last Night to 00 but there’s no date…..I’m confused! Has this happened to anyone? thank you in advance
-
I still haven’t gotten my pin in the mail to verify myself smh
-
My amount now went to 0 but I still done have a date 🤔
-
Now mine updated with a date of 3/10. I kept getting different answers from different people all day. I knew something didn’t seem right about it being issued on 3/1. I’m just glad I have an actual date now.
-
I just updated with a date of 3/10!!! Yayyy that was quick after verifying , never changing my direct info ever again 🥲
-
I updated overnight back to processing after verifying id on Saturday. My 6 weeks will be this Thursday. Let’s see if I get a date since they are saying to give them 4-6 weeks
-
And you never got a date? Look to see if routing and acc # match, if you got your federal and state on same acc then that’s very strange they are saying it was issued. With no date ?
-
Now they’re trying to tell me it was sent to my chime account on 3/1. They told me I have to wait another week before they trace it. Absolute bullshit
-
Still no update. I’m so pissed
-
I hope today is your day for that date Erika
-
@Ida: I’ve been sending messages and they keep telling me it will be released shortly and they still keep feeding me the 4-6 weeks nonsense. I feel like they’re playing games with me.
-
Erica did you called them to see what’s the hold up? You should have gotten your date by now. Normal years the same day it goes back to zero you get a date.
-
I verified identity today , let’s see how much LONGER I have to wait.
-
1/29 accepted still nothing say processing
-
I don’t know what kind of games these people are playing but I’m getting really pissed off. Finished processing my return days ago and still no ddd. Still saying processing. This is bullshit. I’m so mad.
-
Anything anyone? My poor daughter got her little 300$ hostage since 2/6. Poor thing and she has been filing since she was 18 never an issue and she’s 24 now. She’s like ma where’s my little money 🥺😅
-
Nothing
-
I’ll try again after 11
-
Jen , when I called they said to me nothing was wrong and was just processing lol updated to additional information needed and to expect a letter. Then I spoke to someone and was told I need to verify identity. So waiting since 1/26. My daughter been waiting since 2/6. This is the first time ever I’ve seen them process these returns so slow.
-
Still have time when I updated to tell me I was getting a letter was past 11.
-
Did not update. They are playing games with me. I’m so mad
-
Been processing in green since 1/23. January 23rd. The called, no one can explain wth is taking so long. 6 weeks Monday.
-
You should get your ddd tonight 😁 I’m still waiting to very identify, I was told that’s what the letter is about.
-
So I can’t remember from last year. This morning my refund amount changed to zeros in green. Does that mean it’s done processing?
-
*meant to say it’s probably done processing
-
My refund amount was adjusted yesterday and is reflecting on mass connect website. I figured that means it should be fine processing but last night still no update. I’m petrified to check tonight because I’m getting extremely pissef off. It’s obviously done properly so like just give it up.
-
Additionally info needed 🥴 I changed my dd this year I wonder if it is because of that. I also can’t see letter online. Daughter still processing 2/6
-
@AD how were you able to see your letter? For some reason it’s showing there was no letters sent out to me when I log in. It only says a letter was sent from the “WMR”
-
I got the same letter updated. I went on tax connect to view the letter. I was selected for verify. They want a copy of all w2s and mr social card. What a joke not even worth my time
-
Wow.. mine updated to saying a letter was sent out too smh MA DOR slacking this year! Smdh
-
Filed 2/3/23
mine is now updated to additional info needed, letter mailed 2/27/23. Ive been filing for years on my own but this year I used a tax preparer so maybe they need ID verification? Not sure but I cant believe they took that long and now it says to allow more time just for the letter to get to me 🤦♀️ so annoyed but thankful its finally not saying “processing”
Hope everyone else’s updates soon and/or DD hits for y’all -
Mine still processing. My son updated to additional information is needed and a letter was mailed. I’m sure it’s probably i.d. verify. If i remember correctly this happens when it’s your first time filing. But i could be wrong. What i do know is he is pissed. He wants his measly 261 dollars lol
-
I already did , she said there was nothing wrong with my return and that is just processing. She then said it takes 4-6 weeks and that I had couple more weeks left that I could wait 🤣
-
@ida: you should really call and talk to a live person
-
Im going on 5 weeks in a few days.
-
I’ve messaged them and keep receiving the same generic message of processing takes 4-6 weeks
-
So I file and accepted on 1/29 and still processing
Every year I always got pretty quick anyone know what’s going on? -
Yeah, their slow asses never update on the weekends.
-
I dont know if they update on weekends. I mean isn’t like they have been doing whole lota updates anyways lol
-
And still processing
-
I’m not even gonna try to check till after 10
-
Any updates for anyone?
-
I’m hoping for an update tonight. Looking back through these comments I see that the past 3 years I updated on Friday night. So here’s hoping we see some updates tonight.
-
Not here, still processing.
-
Anyone have any luck tonight?
-
Processing here too🤷🏻♀️ is like they are just not doing anything at all. Haven’t seen anyone updating recently on fb either. What gives. This state is a joke.
-
Received on 1/23 and still processing. Cool huh?
-
Still processing. What the heck is going on here
-
Still processing.. wow
-
Lol lol my wife did hers on 2/10 and got a DD of 2/22
-
2/6? That’s cute , 1/26 still processing 🫠
-
Hopefully a deposit this week. Been processing on green since 2/6
-
Still nothing for me either. But my federal is done processing and I have a refund date for that
-
Yup again NOTHING, calling tomorrow to see wtf is going on. Seeing people that filed after 1/26
getting dates while a bunch of us still processing makes no sense. -
Looks like us that filed 1/26 are the ones sitting in limbo
-
Received my state refund this afternoon. Filled with TT on 1/29, accepted 2/1. DDD was given to me yesterday evening scheduled for 2/21, received deposit early using cashapp
-
Mine that I got the DDD for was filed and accepted 1/23 Maybe shoot them a secure email if you are concerned. They seem very responsive.
-
Filed and accepted 1/26
Still processing
First time ever it has taken this long to get a date -
No update yet for me as well. Filed 01/26 and I think it was accepted 01/28.
-
Still no update for me 😞
-
I only filed this past Friday. I won’t see mine till March with the way they work lately. Sigh
-
just got 2/21 DDD
-
Just got DDD of Feb 21… I
-
@Cms0203 we should see something tonight! Last year I updated on the 15th after 10pm I’m hoping for a 2/18 date since 2/17 was already sent out.
-
Anyone know when massachusetts started processing returns?
-
I got excited when I saw other people getting DDD. Not me, still processing 😞
-
I was still processing as of this morning.. with my credit amount in green.. I messaged the mass dor through my account for an update & in an hour they messaged me back and said it was approved and should receive it in 5 days. Right after that my account shows $0.00 so it’s on its way!
-
…. by immediately I mean I checked right now after I knew they were open for business at 9:30 am
-
So I sent a message through the tax connect at 6 am inquiring about the status of my return. I got a reply almost immediately saying my return had been successfully processed and expect payment in 7-10 days.
-
Still processing for me
-
Dewy same, still
Processing here. -
Mine still shows no change,,, Frustrating,,,
-
Update on Mass where’s my refund to DDD 2/17. Masstaxconnect still shows refund in green.
-
I also have a de of 2-17. Didn’t have it this morning when I checked.
-
Check now just got date for 2/17
-
Keep an eye out around 10pm it was updating last year around that time.
-
No movement on my end either. Still green with the amount. Last few years I got it around mid February, before the 22nd I believe. Wonder why it’s taking so long this year just to update with a ddd
-
Last year I received my state on Feb 15th 2days earlier than the scheduled direct deposit date of Feb 17th. The year before was Feb 11th so I’m hoping tomorrow afternoon I will see a deposit
-
This year is taking a while it seems: I saw something on Reddit where a person said they knew people who had gotten their refunds but I am skeptical of that info. Looking back, in 2017 I filed on the first day and didn’t get paid til Feb 28…. At least it isn’t that everyone got their refund but me and mine has a problem or something. Anyway, as far as I can tell nobody on the Facebook groups I’m in has gotten anything either or had any progress.
-
Nothing yet here. Will update as soon as status changes.
-
This year is taking a while it seems
-
Anyone’s amount went back to black/zero? I was hoping to at least see the smallest change today 😕
-
No updates, still processing…
-
Just looking back over the messages from last year, The first people started seeing movement around Feb 15th so … In like another week…
-
I’m hoping for an update by Friday-Saturday with a date. Best case scenario.
-
So according to them we should start seeing ddd next week. I’ll be happy just with a date 🫠
-
Refunds for the past several years have not been issued until mid February at earliest. Unfortunately this year is no exception, and refunds are not expected to be release until mid-late February. If you are expecting a refund and have since filed, please allow an additional 2-3 weeks for your refund to be issued. -via reply from mass tax
-
filed both on 1/31/2023
accepted both 1/31/2023
Fed DDD 2/8/2023 money arrived.
MA still waiting, green in (XX) on MTC
the new Gov must be trying a figure a way to pork us some more. -
Update. Now im reading the special refund thing is affecting Fed not Sate taxes.
-
There was stuff on the news in Ma that refunds will be delayed due to that special refund everyone got
They are telling people to hold off following MA taxes according to the news. I already filed mine a long time ago and i had read that that refund was nonntaxble so i dont get what the issue is but i guess we shall see. -
I was told by a tax preparer here in ma that they didn’t started processing on the 23rd but on the 30th!
-
Massachusetts is taking way too long. Tired of waiting.
-
I got a DDD for federal of 2/8. Checked SBTPG and shows my amount but says unfunded but at bottom shows amount with fees taken out and says deposited to my bank 2/7 but haven’t got anything yet. My state tax is still processing, shows amount in green but no updates or changes on that
-
I’m still processing with same date as you. Multiple people in a Facebook group I’m in are also processing with our date and some who filed a few days later.
-
@dewy
Same date and still processing. Multiple people in a Facebook group are also still processing who filed the same day and days after. -
Still processing, same date.
-
Someone on a Facebook group said one of their friends has received their MA refund for this year…. No movement on mine although I submitted mine on 1/23. Will update if I get more info.
-
I lookd at past years and other times I got my return in the first day of tax time or earlier I received my refund between feb 9 and feb 11… I looked back and 2 years where I filed on jan 21 I received them on the 11th..
-
Not sure if y’all knew but on the MTC site you can view refunds that are sent to you instead of going back to the MTC homepage & clicking on “Where’s My Refund”. You go the ‘More’ tab, scroll all the way down to ‘View Taxpayer refunds’ and it will show all the refunds sent plus the date it was sent out =)
Also still showing green with amount on my MTC page as well.
-
My refund amount has shown in (green) since last Tuesday. However when I call the 800 number to check the status it says no return received. It also says no return received when I check my refund status on the old site
-
Has anyone seen any movement on their refund? Nothing yet…. I told myself I would just file and check back in a couple weeks. Of course I end up now checking both the Where is my refund and logging into my mass tax connect account every morning to see if there is any movement. As I remember last time, first the refund amount in green goes to zero and then when you go to the screen where you enter ss number and refund amount, a DDD will be displayed soon after.
-
Has anyone seen any movement on their refund? I’m still on processing, refund in green.
-
Will do!

Mass was just accepted. Now the wait begins for federal & state.
Oh good we both got accepted the first day or so. Let’s compare notes on DDD date and stuff….
-
Mass was just accepted. Now the wait begins for federal & state.
-
My MA updated on Mass Connect to say RECEIVED in green…
-
Turbo tax won’t let me file my state. It says can’t e-file I don’t understand
-
I filed both federal & state yesterday. Federal was accepted, just waiting for Mass to accept.
-
My MA return was accepted today….
-
I just filed State Taxes today along with Federal. Federal got accepted right away. I am still waiting on MA state to be accepted. According to the internet, today is opening day in MA. We shall see if it gets accepted..
-
Just got my DDD for 6/9/22 so it has taken about 3 weeks…
-
Anyone know how long MA has been taking. From past messages this year it seems like about 2 weeks. I’m at 2 weeks now but there was a 3 day holiday in there. I’m hoping for movement this week. I already got my Federal quite quickly.
-
I filed yesterday. By today, I already had my refund in green and it says processing.. We will see how long it takes but I am encouraged by the progress so far.
-
@Lyndsay did you ever get your refund? I never got my letter so after a month they sent me what was needed through the inbox. Id/ss card/proof of address. I did that yesterday and I’m wondering how long it took. Thank you in advance.
-
So frustrated letter mailed in 2/14 still have not gotten it. I message them and all I get is wait till the 14th and then call if I don’t receive. Shouldn’t have to wait a month for a letter. 🤬
-
My issued check finally came in the mail 🙌
I waited over 10 days . Says it was issued 2/22
Until next year 🥳🥳 take care everyone stay safe -
Anyone logging in and seeing amount in green check the where’s my refund on ma. I was in green no letters in my account and then I checked where’s my refund and it shows letter mailed. When I called she said it’s a verification letter that can’t be put online. Now I have to Wait for letter mailed 2/14. Hopefully after I do what’s on the letter it won’t take long 🙏🏼
-
Ugh still no check in my mailbox
Mass wmr said they mailed it out the 17th smh taking forever -
Got letter this morning saying more information was needed. Sent it all now wondering how long before l get my refund.
-
Anyone have any updates? Feel like state is takin forever this year!!
-
Nice! I logged in to mass connect and it still shows in green with the number. I go to where’s my refund not logged in and says issued by direct deposit 2/24
-
Finally updated to ddd of 2/24 for state
-
State wmr updated !
My sister got a DDD of 2 / 24
Goodluck everyone
I’m still waiting on my check that was sent out -
Yes I did. It went into my Wells Fargo account, for some reason I thought it was going into credit karma.
-
Just got my DD on Chime. Website said DDD for 2/21.
I filed 2/11 accepted same day. -
Just got my deposit now, see y’all next year and good luck 🍀
-
@jenjen00 did you ever get deposit and if so how long did it take ?
-
Filed 02/08 owed money from 2017 audit, just checked ti be Direct deposited on the 22nd good luck everyone see you next year
-
Still no update for me 😢
-
I just checked my state and it says issues for check feb 22 I checked a few minutes ago and it had said processing .
-
@ Radshackgirl777
Yes it just updated the mass refund site ! I know a couple people who got a date as well . They usually update right at 10pm this year .
Goodluck and keep me posted -
@ladyem: congrats!!!! Did it just recently update for you? I’m scared to check.
-
EVERYONE CHRCK STATE
JUST GOT CHECK MAILED FOR 22ND 🥳🥳🙌
GOODLUCK EVERYONE ! -
I really hope I get some kind of update tonight for state
-
Accepted 2/14
Green balance 2/14
I will update when complete. Hopefully they dd it this time last few years got a check. However also got it processed in about 4 days -
I have a DDD for 2/18. It’s going on my credit karma card. Does anyone know if they deposit overnight tonight or just anytime?
-
@ladyem: I just checked mine a few minutes ago and still no change. But I was only accepted on 2/12. Here’s hoping for updates soon
-
Anyone update after midnight for state?
I checked still nothing for me :/ but on the bright side my federal deposited early today (pather all credits )
If only Mass state would get with the program 🙄 and push out my refund🤞 -
No update on my state as of yet
But I got a DDD for 2/22 federal 🥳
So weird I usually ALWAYS get my state 1st . -
@Millyj Thanks! I ended up sending a message on MassTaxConnect about what was going on and they said my refund was approved and would be issued in a few days and to keep checking back for DD date! I would suggest anyone whose having issues to send a message they got right back to me within 2 hours.
-
Just to help anyone out
My ddd was for 2/18
It went into my account 2/16
At noon.
So if your deposit isn’t in account in the morning they come at any time
Best of luck to everyone we sure need it -
I got accepted on 02/03/2022
Usually I get my refund right away like 5 days after I get accepted.
I’ve been checking the status of my refund and it’s being stuck in “ Processing “
Today I check and it says “ No Return Found “
How is that possible? What’s going on?
And yea I put the correct info. Idk what’s going on. -
@cs2
Usualy you can view letters there on mass connect
Go the message center and send message asking. They usually reply fast within 10 mins
They will tell you what it is -
I filed 2/10 just checked and it’s saying more information required. A letter was mailed 2/12 but I don’t see any letters in my masstaxconnect account. Any insight on what this could mean? I thought all letters showed in masstaxconnect. I’m worried.
-
@Spink
What time did your deposit come into your card,?
Trying to see if they deposit all throughout the dayOr anyone that has gotten yours already. What time did it go in the account
Thank you 😊 -
Filed 2/10 went to check today and it says additional information needed. Letter mailed 2/12 but it does not show up in my letter section. Any Insight? I thought all letters mailed could be seen in your masstaxconnect account 😭
-
The same happened with mine. I’m not sure if it will change at all
-
@Beth you probably have a direct deposit date then. Just check without logging into your account. Click where’s my refund put the year ss number and amount and it will show you direct deposit date. Hope that made sense lol
-
I got a notice of change in tax return alert. And my amount in green went to zero. Apparently my w-2 didn’t have the correct amount of taxes withheld. I have a feeling it’s going to be a loooong ride for me.
-
My Amount went from the $ amount in green to now 0.00 in green but it still says Processing, anyone know what this means?
-
Filed and accepted 1/29. I just had an update with 2/17 deposit.
-
I just checked and I have a DD of 2-18…and I just verified on Friday evening and didn’t change to processing until Monday. Thank god! Now if my federal would go through
-
@ladyem
No mass connect is still in green with the amount
When you use the where’s my refund mass and input your info it told me there
Check both ways.
I think mass connect will prob update tomorrow back to zero. Good luck. Yours is on the way soon -
Mines updated DD for 2/18 good luck everyone they are coming
-
Updated, last I checked was 1 hour ago I have now a ddd for the 18th! So happy!!! Filed on the 3rd good luck, hope to see everyone getting their deposit this week. Times are rough!!!
-
Congrats everyone 👏 I’m happy for yall
Still no date for me
Can you guys tell me if your mass tax connect account went to the black 0 . Thank you -
I just checked mine as well and I also have a ddd for the 18th. This is my last year checking this forum as I moved out of state last year! Good luck to you all :)
-
Mine updated within the past few hours. Ddd for 2/18!
Good luck guys it’s coming soon for you. Go check! -
Received my mass return early on my Venmo card this afternoon. Accepted on 2/2. Direct deposit was dated for 2/17
-
@JuliaN
good, because the change were throwing me off. i pray we wake up to a ddd🤞🏾🤞🏾🤞🏾
-
I was accepted the 3rd, same day my amount was there in green. Really hoping for a ddd soon 🙏🏻 Let you all know as soon as I get it. I’ll check after midnight.
-
@ gmemycash
Yes! It’ says received in green with refund amount. Been like that for a few days now. Before that said accepted with no amount. Zero
So it has moved to the next step. We are just waiting for green or black zero now . Hopefully tonight overnight. -
@JuliaN
I was accepted on the 4th as well. Does yours say received with your expected refund in green? I see they’ve changed the look of the site this year. I pray we will have a DDD before the end of the week. -
Congrats to those whol got DDD
By any chance we’re you able to check mass tax connect as well? -
@ gmemycash
Probably updates once overnight
I think. Not sure on that.
But one year I got my deposit at noon and my friend got hers at 4 pm same day. So they make deposits throughout the day. Not sure if they approve and release as well
Hopefully tomorrow morning the rest of us update to a ddd
Mine was accepted 2/4. So if the ones with 2/3 and before are today makes sense tomorrow -
does MTC update throughout the day or only once daily like the IRS?
-
Updated to ddd of 2/17 at 2am. Just got my refu d on my chime card. Money is starting to be sent.. good luck everyone..
-
@JuliaN
It updated this morning. I filed 1/18 through HRBlock, the state accepted first day.
Said No return found until last Wednesday and updated last Thursday to Processing and this morning to Direct Deposit sent 2.17
-
@jenjen00
Congratulations I filed mine on the 3rd as well hopefully I get an update tomorrow
-
I filed MA on 2/3, on 2/8 they sent me a letter on connect to verify identity because we moved I assume. They received the documents on 2/9. I messaged them yesterday to ask if they needed anything else to verify. They responded with I will get my refund in 6-10 days. When I go on mass connect it’s black to processing.
-
@Jenn
@KDD
CongratulationsWhen did yours get accepted what date.
Did you check the where’s my refund link where you input social and amount. Or did you log into mass connect to view that it was processed
Hopefully mine updates soon -
Mine updated back to processing, hopefully I’ll get a DDD soon
-
updated this morning with 2/17 DDD
feb12
still nothing
filed 1/29 processing
green number in parenthesisMA used to take 4 days a few years ago, now 2 weeks and still no deposit.
-
I updated this morning, dd 12/17 , Good luck everyone, they’re starting to come!
-
Just checked mine and my state says direct deposit was sent 2.17
-
I filed my Massachusetts return on January 29 and it was accepted on February 2nd
-
@Spink when did you file? Hoping mine updates tonight!
-
Mine has said received since 2/4 does it ever change to processing?
-
@Spink
Congratulations mine is still processing -
Massachusetts wmr updated after midnight. Refund issued by direct deposit on 2-17-22
-
JuliaN
I am hoping they start giving them out next week -
@Ladyscorpio13
They start. You heard. Or you think.
Yes that’s pray that’s so
I can wait for my federal but can really use my state. Which is why I’m stressing so much.
Good luck to us all 🍀 -
JuliaN
🙏🏾🙏🏾they start rolling the checks out this week -
@Ladyscorpio13
Sooo true!!! I’m tired of waiting
It’s ridiculous -
@JuliaN
At this point I don’t care if its true or false just give us our money.
-
@ladyscorpio13
They always say that it’s a general message allow 4-6 weeks for processing. It never takes that long ever.
They just read the scripts off when ever someone calls.
Hopefully soon it updates -
I spoke to dor earlier and I was told they got an email stating they can’t issue refunds until 4-6 weeks hopes this helps someone
-
If anyone has any sort of update make sure to check in
-
I got my letter, just had to go online and verify/put code in, which I did Friday evening but whenever I go to track refund it still says letter was sent out, so hasn’t updated. Also still waiting on federal, my transcripts have yet to update and I don’t even have eic this year
-
Last year I got state on Feb 22 all the years before that I got state 2/11-2/10 last year my state says accepted on 2/17 and I got deposited 2/22. 5 days. This doesn’t make sense why they are being so slow
Last year was a mess for me I didn’t get federal till March 16
Maybe because I used the lookback idk
We will prob get state this Tuesday or Wednesday has to be
State always comes before federal always!!
So Path prob isn’t going to lift until 2/20 ish -
They say Path doesn’t apply to state but I used to get my mass refund within a week. Ever since path has been around I have not received my deposit until after the 15th. Is it a coincidence I have no I idea but the 15th is on Tuesday so I’m positive we will see some movement this week 🤞🏽
-
No path doesn’t apply to state.
-
Does anyone know if the PATH hold applies to state returns?? My mass return was efiled on January 29 and received on February 1st and still no deposit. Usually I get my return from Massachusetts within a week tops
-
I really need this money, I always get it first week of February but this year when I need it the most, nothing is moving 😔 mind you I have no kids credits I claim just a very simple return.
-
Nothing here still.
Green with the amount
I assume maybe Monday or Tuesday now…Wednesday the latest. I hope they move it along
😡 -
still nothing
filed 1/29 processing
green number in parenthesisMA used to take 4 days a few years ago, now 2 weeks and still no deposit.
-
Anything? Anyone?
-
Last year I submitted around 01/28-01/29 and didn’t receive my state until around 02/21-02/22 and had gotten federal 02/23 when I checked my bank statements. Idk what’s going on with state, they usually process fairly quickly from years before. Hopefully we all see some movement soon.
-
@millyj
Yes mine last year was 1/22 as well and federal came late into March! It was a mess last year they also opened later in the year I think Jan 31 they opened
I thought this year has been moving faster. Maybe not so much. I just hope it’s not like last year again they should be lifting soon
Last year I think the look back caused delays idk what’s going on -
I looked back and last year got my deposit Feb 22nd So hoping something will update soon. Still in green and processing since 2/4
-
I’m starting to think refund will come Monday or Tuesday 2/14-2/15 and Path deposits will come 2/18-2/22.
My state always comes in before federal and state is usually 6-10 days … still no movementHas anyone ever gotten a state refund deposited on a Saturday?
-
@Spink
Yes praying 🙏. I looked back and all my refunds from state came on a Monday or a Wednesday. So hoping this coming Monday we have it. I always got them deposited day or two earlier from what was given for a date as well. 🤞🏼
-
@ JuliaN still nothing from Massachusetts 10days later. My Massachusetts return has never taken this long . Pra🙏 to the money Gods, momma needs some new brakes and rotors like yesterday
-
Still nothing.
Says received in green.
Amount of refund in green
The past 3/4 years I’ve always gotten the money in bank 6-7 days after being accepted
We are waiting for the amount to go back to a green zero
Hopefully SOON
Anyone else update yet. -
Has anybody received a ddd from massachusetts?
-
Still green here too but I filed On the 3rd. Not expecting to see any movement at least until next week.
-
Accepted the 28th and amount still in green. This is the longest it’s ever taken for me.
-
@ JuliaN My Massachusetts return was accepted on February 1st, no refund yet. It would be nice to get it sometime this week before my federal (fingers crossed)
-
Filed 2/3
Accepted 2/4
Mass connect said processing with green 0
Now says received with the amount of refund in green
I checked past 3 years bank statements and everyone was deposited within 6-7 days.
Hopefully that’s the same this year.
Has anyone got theirs refunded yet -
Figured it out… amount is in green. Now let’s see how long it takes to get!
-
My amount is in green on Masstax connect and everything looks fine but I put my info into where’s my refund and it says additional info needed, letter has been sent out but when I log in and look under letters it says nothing has been sent…idk if maybe because it’s the weekend but so much for getting my refund back quickly
-
I just checked and mine is fine. My amount is in green. Everything looks normal on mine.
-
Anyone see a red exclamation point next to refund on Mass Tax Connect, it’s not letting me fix it. It’s making me fill out a form1 personal income tax form but it wont let me fix the EIC adjustment review.
-
Same. Nothing on transcripts yet was accepted on the 24th no bars lost those a week ago. Really hoping to see something from mass soon.
-
My state got accepted this AM, 2-4, know hopefully they send it soon…My federal was accepted on 1-24 and my transcripts haven’t updated yet :(
-
I sent mine little after midnight on the 3rd. Was already processing by the am
-
I finally sent my state through turbo, hopefully they process it quick this year
-
@ Ida I am having the same exact issue ! Except I filled with Jackson Hewitt this year and they still can’t file my state because mass isn’t open yet . But didn’t Mass start accepting e files Jan 24th?!??
-
Anyone else not able to file state taxes yet? Turbo tax saying forms not available until February 3rd!!!????
-
I filed my Mass taxes on april 17. I received a DDD today for April 26….
-
Wow I flled on the 17th and it is already showing my refund amount in green.
-
@tae mine came a day later than my ddd so if it doesn’t come on the 4th I wouldn’t worry. Should be in by the 5th if anything
-
hello all my state has a Ddd for the 4th of march does it come on that date or the 5th I have chase bank TIA
-
Still no check said it was sent out Monday 😢
-
Says I am getting a check 2/26. Hopefully comes in a day or two. No idea why they couldn’t DD
-
No date on mass tax just amount in green but I messaged them and got the response
“This is to inform you that your refund will be sent shortly please allow up to 2 weeks”
-
My state was just deposited :) hope whoever else didn’t get theirs yesterday like stated gets it over night as well. Til next year!
-
@chelo no problem :)
Hoping it’s deposited after midnight tonight at the least.
-
@ Tiffanyann143
Thank you
-
So I just called and they said I have a ddd for today which I already knew but they said to just wait for the bank to receive it lol blah
-
@chelo not yet. they’ll probably just say wait a few days. The check refund thing says to give it 3-5 days from that date to be deposited =\
-
Has anyone called?
-
@Michelle I have a ddd of today too and I bank with Santander as well & I’ve been checking on and off since 12:30am and nothing yet. Usually I get direct deposits by 1am. I’m hoping it will magically appear today lol
-
Mass Tax Connect states a direct deposit was issued on 2/23/21. I have been checking my Santandar account since 12:45. (usual DD time). It’s now 10:21 a.m. and still no deposit. Anyone else with the same issue?
-
@tiffanyann143 Thank you for responding to my question I called this morning and yes it is ID verification but they said that it’s not gonna show up at mass Tax connect They said to to so much Fraud they mail them directly to the people now and when I get it it’ll have a pin number on it and just follow the directions on the letter🤦🏽♀️
-
@kat82 yay! & I hope it doesn’t take that long for you lol
-
@jade glad I’m not the only one for today 😦 hopefully sometime this morning it will pop up for us
-
I had a direct deposit date for today and so far nothing. Usually it’s in my account by morning.
-
Woke up to green 0 and check mailed so prob another week or two till I get it lol with the snail mail.
-
So I have a ddd of today and usually it’s deposited over night and nothing yet… this should be interesting lol
-
@tae it may just be a letter to verify your identity. I’m not sure but I think on MTC you can view any letters before you receive them
-
My amount is in green And it says a letter was sent out to me is that a bad thing.
-
So masstaxconnect shows a green amount of 0.00 but no transcript. I’m getting so frustrated!
-
My state hit today Chime card DDD 2/24🙌
Goodluck everyone -
It’s deff a very slow update on mass connect. The number or the where’s my refund updates before. Mine says that it was applied to a past balance. However my refund was for 2k and my past balance was for 900. The difference is still in green () so hopefully I get that DD
-
@kat82 then they have received it :) That number either needs to turn black or turn to a green 0 and that will mean you’ve been approved. Also a few post down April found out a way to check if you’ve been approved before anything updates
-
So is there suppose to be a negative in from of the amount? Mine is just (102) in green no negative.
-
When I check my ma state refund it says information not found but when I log into my masstaxxonnect I have a green amount in(). What does this mean
-
@lindsay scroll down a bit someone posted how to see it when you log in you bit more scroll down and click refunds
-
@ladyem
Ugh 5 days? Plus we have all heard the horror stories of the mail being slow I hope I get it this week I really need it. I didn’t pay my insurance last week cuz I thought I’d get a DD and I only get paid twice a month so I hope it doesn’t take forever. Last year it was the verification letter now they mailed the damn refund like obv it’s my banking info I did my taxes. It makes me so mad so what I changed banks it’s my name on the damn bank account like really smh
-
@Stephanie They did that to me last year. I was so mad! When I called the DOR they said it was for “security” reasons from me changing banking info . Took me about 5 days to get mine via Mail
-
@ Lyndsay try googling track my mass refund enter your info and it should tell you if you have a DDD or if your still processing for Mass state returns. Hope this helps
-
Where do you see the DDD?
-
Refundplease
@refundpleaseMy amount is still showing
-
Refundplease
@refundpleaseI wouldn’t worry about that. It’ll probably update on Monday
-
@radshackgirl77 Did your amt go to zero yet on mass tax connect? I have a DDD also for 2/24 but my amt is still showing in green when I login.
-
Thank goodness, I have a ddd of 2/24
-
My mass updated and now have a DDD of 2/23!!
-
Massachusetts hasn’t even ACCEPTED my return yet 😞
-
They said they issued mine by check smh I have my bank info on my return so idk why they did that I really needed that money and the mail is moving so slow so who knows when I’ll get it I’m so mad
-
Yay congrats :) fast turn around this year
-
DD February 23 just now
-
Everyone the mass wmr has updated !!!!!
I have a DDD for 2/24 !!! Check yours!! -
@Kat82 yes. seems that this year when that green number turns to a green zero it means your refund has been approved
-
Just checked massconnect And my refund amount is green in (). Is that a good sign?
-
@ AprilS234 omg you are awesome!! I just checked and have a ddd for the 23rd :) thank you for sharing lol
-
If you have a green 0 read here to see your date :
On MTC click on MORE scroll to bottom and click “manage tax payer refunds” it will show your DD date there! I just got mine for 2/22/21 !
I hope this helps! -
@ida mine still says processing as well. no date as of right now. hoping something changes later tonight or early morning tomorrow
-
Look to see if you have a date Tiffany. Mine still saying processing
-
@Tiffanyann143 no mine is still the same. Showing my refund amount. When I seen the convo about the zero in green I just decided to do a little research
-
@radshackgirl77 did yours change as well?
-
(617) 887-6367 Mass connect
-
Tiffanyann143
My thoughts exactly.
-
I was thinking the same thing about the 0’s. All of my past years are down to a green 0 and maybe because they updated the site that maybe what we’ve known isn’t a thing anymore lol
-
I think since they changed the layout of the masstaxconnect website maybe we’re not looking for black zeros to mean refund issued this year. Maybe it stays green and drops to zero. I was just looking at previous years and the zeros are green for each year now. Try calling the phone number instead. Maybe it has a detailed update.
-
@Melissa I’m not sure what a green 0 means. I think maybe it could mean that the refund has been issued and maybe the where’s my refund part hasn’t updated yet but I don’t really know. The tax is what they are taking from you.. the other is the amount before the taxes are taken out and the credit is what is then owed to you.
-
What does a green green zero mean? Can someone break down what tax, other and credit mean? On my tax forms the ‘other’ amount that is shown on MA tax connect is my refund amount due. Could someone explain?
-
ugh lol haven’t had this happen before at least since I started using MassTaxConnect lol so I guess we shall see what it means. at least I have my federal coming 😦
-
Mine still showing and in green.
-
Anyone else?
-
@Tamara F hmmm same! Checked it at like 730 this morning and I still had my amount and just checked now after reading that and there’s no amount just a green zero 🙄
-
Yesterday my entire amount was in green but today 0 in green UGGG
-
I guess Massachusetts is dragging their feet again this year.
-
@samfromMA I was getting worried to I filed 1/25 federal accepted early 2/10 rhode island accepted 2/13 but my mass finally got accepted today 2/18 at 11:47pm est
-
My MA return hasn’t even been accepted yet! I’m getting worried
-
@Dan hopefully some updates tonight 🤞
-
Mine is green too and I just got accepted last night at 7 PM. No idea when it will actually come though…
-
I filed on January 28 it was just accepted a few days ago and mines already in green. Nothing yet for my federal and I have child tax credit so hopefully I get it next week because I really need this money I wonder if they’re doing letter verifications this year, does anyone know or has anyone gotten any yet?
-
@dan If you actually login to the site and you check your tax return page it will be in parentheses and it will be green that means you’re going to get it soon once it turns to green you usually get the payment like a week after but you have to login to see it
-
What do people mean when they say their amount is green? Mine just says processing but the amount doesn’t show anywhere.
-
Thanks :) I remember last year we all were getting updates late Thursday night? On the tax connect and the following day it was on the refund page with a ddd the following week. Maybe it will be the same again this year lol. Fingers crossed
-
Congrats Tiff!!! Lots of 2/22 fed ddd. Not me tho still waiting on that. 🙃
-
my amount is in Green on Mass tax connect :)
Hoping it turns black before the weekend comes 🤞 -
@ida yes got a ddd for the 22nd :) hopefully state will be sometime next week as well
-
@Ida federal has nothing to do with Mass.
-
Green amount on mass tax too. People already seeing a deposit date for Monday on transcripts for federal. Check your trans.
-
@Dan I filed Jan. 29th was not accepted until early this morning tho
-
@tiffany when did you file?
-
@Dan when my amount is green usually within a couple of days it will turn black and that means that my refund is going to be issued.
-
@tiffany what does that mean? And when did you file?
-
My amount is already green in Masstaxconnect
-
If I remember correctly it’s always been within a week an half for me. but who knows this year
-
Once accepted, how long does it usually take Mass to send your refund?
-
finally accepted as well at 12:41am
-
MA was finally accepted this morning. I filed way before they opened the season.
-
MA was accepted at 12:58 am
-
I got nothing still with mass but my federal and RI state were accepted
-
Update: I was accepted at 900 pm tonight FINALLY
-
Yay @ida! Glad one of us got accepted. Maybe there’s some hope for all of us now lol
-
Received email 9:37 pm tax refund accepted. It is showing now on wmr ma
-
Nothing yet very slow state 🤦🏽♂️
-
This state has always been slow nothing new there
-
I’m starting to get nervous. Mass has still not been accepted :(
-
wow Mass is moving extremely slow this year not even accepting returns yet i don’t think . They need to get with The program !!!!!
-
So quiet in here this year 😦
-

-
Yeah I had seen a couple days ago that they aren’t accepting until the 12th as well. Filed on the 29th. So now just the normal waiting game lol
-
MA won’t start the season until the 12th like the IRS.
-
Filed 01/28 and still no acceptance yet. Pending on TurboTax
-
Has anyone filed and had their return accepted yet?
-
Heyyyyy. Anyone know when mass will start accepting tax returns this year?
-
Hi Welcome to 2021 for MA…

-
L
-
I still have not gotten the verification letter that was sent out on 2/10 so they said I could send documents to prove who i am and they just got it and said I will have my refund in 7 to 10 days. Has anyone gone through this and does it really take that long?
-
@familia primero. Thank u!
-
@dianap if she has access online tell her to take a picture and submit it through there. MAss asked for same info plus w-2. Letter mailed today I submitted the information via mass tax connect. Called and verified that they received it.
-
Anyone have dd date of 2/27
-
@jen. Same to my aunt. But i can see the letter online they are asking for her social security card just that. My question is. Could she send that before the letter arrive??? Any who can help please!
-
Filed/accepted 2/6, updated to they sent a letter and will receive it in 3-5 business days for additional information.
-
Does anyone know why my federal refund was processed and approved but it didn’t give me a DDD it says if you do t receive your return by March 2nd check back? I’m so confused
-
I already got mine , and my sister got her refund too filed same days But just my aunt still processing
-
@familia primero @mari
My aunt is processing too. Accepted 2/7 and nothing. No letter , just that processing!
-
Still processing accepted 2/2
Called and they tell me “still processing no Issues”
Anyone else???
Everyone around me already received Their state returns!!! -
@mari, I was accepted on 2/5 and mine is still processing. My federal is already done and deposited. I used TurboTax and received an email from them saying that I might need to amend my Massachusetts return because of the W2 import feature for my particular job did not import everything!! Now I am freaking out because if I didn’t double-check the information when I filed, I need to wait till March to amend it!! I hope you have better luck!
-
Anyone still processing??? accepted on 2/6
-
Never received my letter but she was able to id verify over the phones on Wednesday and woke up today with a ddd of 2/26. It was pretty quick after id verify
-
@rose (800) 392-6089
-
Filed my mass taxes on Wednesday 1/19. Was accepted Wednesday 1/19. Checked this morning and it shows refund sent for direct deposit on 2/26. So that’s good. 1 battle down. Now to wait on federal.
-
My letter was sent the 5th received it on the 14th which was a Friday updated Tuesday because of holiday back to processing later Tuesday night got my ddd which was the 21st and got it yesterday on the ddd. So letter takes a bit to come but it updates quick after you verify good luck
-
UPDATE ON FEDERAL;;
FILED ON TURBO TAX JAN 21 ACCEPTED JAN 21
UPDATED TODAY TO DDD OF 2/26
ALL CREDITS … WOHOOO -
@Cs1982 what number did you call cause I still do not have my letter
-
For those who had to ID verify how long did it take to get the letter from mass?
-
I got my DD today. Filed and accepted on 1/31. It was in processing limbo until Feb 18 when I finally got a date for DD.
Robbie
-
Just got a dd today when it was supposed to be Monday.
-
Filed the 15th on TT. Accepted the same. Processing since…..
-
My dd is for tomorrow haven’t got it yet
-
Also my dd was scheduled for the 24th and I received it today good luck y’all
-
In response to jkeithl12345, I just got my direct deposit today in Thursday around 2 pm so I’m not sure those days are correct…I pin verified last Friday if that helps
-
Does anyone know what days does massachusetts process returns? I know in the past when I have gotten a check it arrived in mail on saturday. If DD, I would get it on Wednesday. Does that mean they only process on Tuesday? I know it doesnt typically take a long time with Mass refunds, but was wondering. I filed amd was accepted yesterday. I know I wont see any updates till next week regardless, but was wondering if maybe I’ll have a DD for next week. What are your thoughts.
-
Hello, I had to verify and I got a DDD of 2/24. Anyone know if a DD is possible earlier than that?
-
Green means processing when it turns back to 00 in black that means everything is sent. The best way to check if there is anything going on is the where’s my refund page before you log into masstaxconnect
-
quick question , how do you know if there is something you need to do. i see a green amount which is my refund amount and that is it.
-
@Mari
Yep, same date, no letters or anything.
-
I did my pin Friday Monday was a holiday Tuesday afternoon it went back to processing and Tuesday at 11 I got my date for the 2-21 so exactly one week to get my dd
-
Does anybody have a bank that lets you get you dd a couple days early and has a ddd of 2/24 think it’s possible to see it Saturday?
-
accepted 2/6, still processing, no letters yet, anyone else in same boat? Are we ever going to get a DDD?!
-
For everyone who had to pin verify…I never got my letter but they were able to do it over the phone and she approved and was sending it to her supervisor. How long after you did your pin verification did you see an update online? Mine still says more info needed letter mailed 2/5. Thank you in advance for your help.
-
Finally a ddd for the 24th!
-
Files/accepted 2/6 and still processing. No letters have been sent, I sent.them a message to confirm and.they said it’s just still processing.
-
That my check was mailed out Friday 2/14/20
-
It says mine was mailed out Friday 2/14/20 and I’m still waiting, maybe tomorrow 🤷♀️
-
@mari
Yes. No letter or anything. Got the text notification thatca deposit was made, and I checked mtc and all was good.
-
Check sent out yesterday hoping it comes soon
-
Check sent out yesterday hoping it comes soon
-
@dmack so mass connect updated you with a direct deposit date for today without getting the letter?
-
@mari
Yes it did.
-
@dmack did mass connect update for you?
-
Update to all people waiting on a letter. Mine says mailed out on 2/11. I’ve been waiting for it to come so I can ID verify, and my DD just hit my netspend account now, without a letter ever showing up.
-
I’m still waiting from Friday for any info everything I call they say 4-6 weeks. I did the pin on Friday smh this is so annoying already
-
I am shock, it got changed with a DDD for 2/21
Robbie.
-
I did my pin verification Saturday, hoping I see a ddd soon.
-
Just checked i got a direct deposit date 2/21 that was a fast pin verification
-
Dd for 2/21
Now federal needs to finish -
Finally got a direct deposit date for Friday!!
-
This year is the worst I have ever seen
-
stuck in processing since 1/31. In years past I would received mail by now to response so they can get it done.
-
@HEATHER….mine was mailed Friday 2/14/20 and I’m still waiting, think they say 3-5 business days so maybe you’ll get it Friday? I’m hoping I get mine tomorrow but who knows
-
I’m pissed came home from work and still no letter. They mailed it 2/5
-
Mine just updated back to processing instead of needs additional info. And my message says 2 to 3 weeks but I’ve already updated so I assume it will be faster than that
-
This is the message I got when I asked about how long it takes after verifying the pin:
Thank you for your inquiry to the Massachusetts Department of Revenue. If you followed the instructions and confirmed the PIN correctly then please allow 2-4 business weeks for your return to be completed.
-
Hi everyone
Mine says mailed today, when do you think I should get it ? -
Filled 1/27/20 Accepted 1/28/20 still processing. This is ridiculous. I’ve never waited this long to get my refund. Sick of calling and getting the same the same response wait 4 to 6 weeks.
-
I just spoke to a rep and he told me he sees I verified Friday with my pin and if all you had to do was the pin with no documents etc then give it 3 to 5 business days to see a update and for them to release your funds he said it is the fastest method of verifying. Hope it’s correct info today is day 1 if u verified friday
-
I just did my Id verify on Friday, called today and some man told me I might not see it until mid March maybe sooner and it’s processing smh
-
@Sha060809 Sorry just saw this! Filed and accepted for Federal 1/30.
-
It says my check my was mailed Friday and I just checked informed delivery and it’s not there, thought for sure I would get it today
-
Joslyn
Ok Thanks for the info its first time I’ve ever got a letter from them it acually came pretty quick but my apartment is also not far from the main office I can walk there lol
-
@josh I’m in the same exact situation did mine Friday but giving a it’s a long weekend it’s probably going to take a few days longer than normal they said it’s the fastest form of verifying so fingers crossed it’s quick
-
I got a letter in Friday for pin verification i did it took 1min to tell them yes jts me who did my taxes lol does anyone have any idea on the time it takes for them too send me a refund I did my taxes on 1/30 got approved 1/31 I did dd bit I’m sire I will get a check
-
Meant 60 days***
No letter and no correspondence on Mass Connect -
Still waiting for Mass Refund Accepted 2/2/2020. Called to check the status but of course they would not give me information before the 69 days or 4-6 wks. Still (green amount) still waiting. Mass is taking their time this year!!! I don’t like it BS!!!!!
-
I filed/accepted 2/6 and still processing. No letters in the mail or on masstaxconnect..
-
Went on dor acct and have no letters on there. They accepted on 6th still has amount green. Any ideas?
-
This year the refund tracker for MA has been updating with DDD the night before around 1040pm. Then on MTC the next morning you’ll see the green go to a black 0.
-
I hope it’s fast did my pin Friday still no updates
-
@cs82 I really do hope it’s quick, the next few days would be nice but I’m not going to get my hopes up. I believe I still have to wait for my balance to go from green to black if I’m not mistaken from what I’ve read.
-
@jordan1267 the lady told me it’s quick. I had called to ask what kind of letter cause I couldn’t see it and if I should send ss cards and stuff like last year. She told me no it’s a pin i Enter and it pushes my through fast.
-
Mine said 2/5 at first the updated to 2/8 so I think it was issued the 5 th and sent the 8 th
-
@cs82 I just got mine today so they’re coming, I guess it just depends on where it’s being delivered to. Does anyone know if you still have to wait even longer to get your refund after putting in the verification code?
-
My refund came today!!!! So I opted to get mine via mail but filed online. When I checked my status on feb 11th it said your check was issued feb 12th. It came from springfeild ma and I live in southern NH. It took 3 days to receive as today is feb 15th. Also if it helps the dept of revenue mail is sent first class. How this info helps
-
@jordan1267 mine was mailed 2/5 and I have not received mine yet
-
Was anybody able to view their paper check in informed mail?
-
@ Joslyn What day did they issue your letter? Mine said the 7th and still haven’t received it.
-
Anyone have a letter mailed on the 5 th and receive it? Mine was mailed on the 5th and I still have not got it
-
Finally got my pin today I literally had to just put it in and say I filed the return.. now how long does it take for a update?
-
@Lynzee
What day did you file and get accepted for Fed this year? Last year I got my dd on 2/27 as well with a processing date of 2/18.
-
So are taxes being deposited tomorrow or just a update change ?
-
Filled 1/27/2020 accepted 1/28/20 refund still processing. Called the irs today and was told to wait 4 to 6 weeks for processing . I’ve never waited this long for a mass refund. I filled my daughter’s on the same day and she received her refund on 2/12/2020.
-
Filed & accepted 2/6 and still processing for both federal & Mass. I have both credits for federal and haven’t gotten path message yet. Amount of refund still green for Mass.
-
@Sha, could finally see my transcripts this morning. Processing date of 3/2. Last year my processing date was 2/25 and I got my refund 2/27 so kind of assuming I have to wait until 3/4 this year but I hope not
-
@K
No, not really. I went to path on 2/1 and I can’t see my transcripts. So I’m just praying for an update tomorrow or next Saturday, LOL.
-
I haven’t even checked my fed. When I filed they said I wouldn’t be able to until late feb so I haven’t even bothered lol but has anybody been able to see anything about their fed?
-
@jennrod40
Are you including the day it was sent off?
-
And happy Valentines day everyone! Lol
-
@Lynzee & @Ladyem24
I can’t see my transcripts either so I have no idea, LOL. I really hope that I update to a DDD tomorrow, but I seriously doubt it haha. I was weekly last year. So I’m pretty sure I’m weekly again this year and it doesn’t sound like weeklies are going to update until next weekend with a DDD anyway. I would love it too, though. I’m just praying that I get the money by the 26th.😁😁
-
@mari
I learned from previous experiences, including from friends and families, processing this long only means the DOR will later send an Information Request letter to “finished” processing returns. This is my third year in the last five that it has taken this long. The two year that it did not wait gave me a waiting game, my refund was disperse within a week of filing.Calling the DOR will give you absolutely little useful info beyond the generic canned response that is is still processing. What an aggravating process.
-
@ rob, I filed 1/27, accepted 2/6 still processing, Called DOR to see if any letters have been sent to me and no letters, this is ridiculous! Never had to wait this long for the state! At this rate ill be getting my federal first and I’m a PATHer
-
Those stuck in processing hell, when did you filed and getting accepted? Mine was 1/31.
-
Hi Heather, I just logged in also and noticed they sent a check instead of DD. Mine has a date of today but already got mail and have nothing so pretty sure that’s the date it gets issued, mailed
-
Just logged in to my MTC account and got issued a check for 2/18 (not sure why it didn’t DD) will it be sent out on that day or should I expect it by that?
-
Received my paper check within 4 days!!
-
Accepted on 6th still processing dor has no letters, why so long for state this year. Did sons and he already has his back.
-
@Emily
I was told it takes about 2 to 5 days to receive a check in the mail it says mine was issued today so could be Saturday or tuesday because of the holiday. -
Anyone who got checks, how long did yours take to get? Mine is being cut tomorrow. I am hoping to see it by Wednesday. 🤞🤞🤞
-
@ rosa
Seems like forever when your waiting but it took me 4 days to get mine maybe 5 -
so how ling did it take to receive checks in the mail
-
@Sha and @Ladyem… Pather here too!!! But I have no path message and can’t see my transcripts yet so PRAYING that Saturday I wake up with a DDD. Last year I got it 2/26
-
@Ladyem24
Yay! I’m so glad you’re a pather too LOL. Those Facebook groups are overwhelming. Haha. It’s so funny because every year I can never remember when path lifted what my status change to. I’m pretty sure last year I didn’t update with a DDD until 23rd and got it the 27th. Last year, I didn’t update till path till the second week though. And this year I updated the first week. So I’m hoping maybe I’ll get a DDD the first LOL. Wishful thinking! It’ll probably lift and I’ll have some sort of bad thing. Haha.
Positive thinking! Everything is going to go great! LOL.
-
Well. I sent a message to the dor on mtc and got a response this morning. Saying I will indeed have to I’d verify and my letter should be at my door within the next 2 weeks…….5 years in a row now. Wtf is going on.
-
@dianap: I think she may need to confirm her routing and account numbers. If she looks on the copy of her tax return the direct deposit info may be on there.
-
@ Sha060809
I’m here for the PATH party too 🎉🎉🎈
2 day count down. I have both credits as well -
is anyone able to see their letter online at the mass tax connect account?
-
@Ladyem24
Yaaaaaay! Looks like a lot of people are getting their checks today. So happy for you. And so happy for everyone!
Now we just have to wait for path to lift. LOL. Or at least I do anyway.
-
Still not letter. Still “processing ” I will just end up calling on Tuesday and they will tell me I have to ID verify just like every year for the past 5 years. Ridiculous considering nothing on my end has changed.
-
absolutely ridiculous I don’t get the hold up! especially when no letters have been sent out to me. Beyond annoyed right now. Im getting direct deposit and ive never had to wait this long.
-
@mari my aunt accepted 2/7 and still processing. And nothing in mail yet
-
Im concerning about my sister deposit it was 2/12 ddd. (Yesterday) and nothing yet. BANK OF AMERICA. any of you can tell what she can do???
-
how long have people waited for there state? accepted on 2/6, still processing, called DOR twice no letters sent out to me. Not showing DDD or anything, is this happening to anyone else.
-
@ Katie MARKS
@jenn
Todays the day ladies wake up and smell the bacon 🍳🥓😁 -
Good morning everybody I just wanted to let you now that I woke up this morning and my direct deposit had gone through
-
My check’s coming today!
-
@ Dianap
Thank you I appreciate it this struggle was a long one !!! ANYONE have a check mailed out and issued last Friday they are coming in the mail today like hot cakes ,and the checks issued the 10th . Woke up in a good mood 💰💰😁😁 -
@ladyem24 finally girl🙏🏻
-
@Sha060809
Informed shows my check coming today YES wohoooooo -
@ladyem24
Anything?
-
Good morning. I woke up with my dd in account. Easter bank!
-
Santander ddd of 2/13 came through today.
-
Filed 1/29 both Waiting on Fed because of EITC but state first was fine then rejected (was told it was a computer issue) resubmitted and accepted again was processing then says need additional info checked mass connect and it shows a letter mailer (.pdf) that says MASTER ADMINISTRATOR CONFIRMATION and nothing really to verfiy wtf is this? Even H&R had no clue what it was.
-
@dianap .. I used h and r block also. My ddd is 2/13 .. mtc shows I should be getting direct deposit so I’ll know by the time I wake up for work hopefully! Will update if I wake up with good news!!
-
So I looked on another page of mass tax connect and said I had a check issued (even though I did dd) for 2/14 which means I won’t get it until middle of next week because of the stupid holiday 😭😭😭😭😭😭
-
Was originally supposed to get 230 back checked today and it’s now 176 😣 still no ddd!!! Filed in 2/7, got accepted 2/8. Hope it’s in soon!!!! Did anyone else file 2/7 and get any news???
-
Has anyone received a paper check in the mail that was supposed to be a direct deposit? I chose direct deposit but I owed a little money to unemployment so Mass deducted what I owe unemployment and said I would would receive the remainder of my refund by check. I can see on Masstax connect a check dated for 2/10 and the check number.
-
My sister had ddd 2/7 for today 2/12 mass state And nothing on the account yet, so im just keeping updated you all.
-
Hey you guys who are waiting on paper checks i think there is a delay on refunds in alot of state refund not only mass , i ve seen lots of peoples with dd and nothing in account yet. I dunno whats going on this year. Maybe that is the reason you dont recieve the check or its taking that long….
-
@ Brett
Thank God u didn’t bet your last 100 buckaroos because woke up today and still nothing lmao 😂🙄 -
Was told today people who had letters sent out on the 5th to wait one more week. I believe it really went out on the 8th because mine said the 5th and then changed to the 8th and has stayed there. She said they don’t know the exact day it leaves the mailroom so that’s why it’s taking a bit. She said normally about 10 days. Path will be up before the damn letter comes
-
Maryjane, I dont think the letters show up under correspondence for everybody. Mine isn’t there. I called and was told that its regarding identification, and that the letter contained sensitive material, and would not be available online. But that it would have a code to be able to upload the proper documents.
-
Katie sorry. I meant 2/12. For today. Sorry for the wrong date. Is my sister date. Mine is for tomorrow 2/13. Im worrying with this software H&Rblock
-
My dad is also for the 13th but that’s tomorrow.. not today 😁
-
Is there someone with similag situation : my sister had her DD update for today 2/13. But nothing in account yet. H&R block Please help!!
-
@yvette @joslyn I am also waiting on my letter from 2/5 it doesn’t show online either
-
I had received my ddd on Thursday night. Then it hit my chime card Friday at 1pm.
-
Look on Mass Tax Commect to see your correspondence. It might say nothing is there but click anyways and it will show up. No need to wait for the mail.
Early Cards….Chime, Netspend Etc. You will probably get your refund the afternoon before your ddd. So if your ddd is 2/13, you could see your refund tmw late afternoon. That’s what I’ve noticed for Federal, anyways.
-
Anyone have a ddd for 2/14 that has netspend. My sons expecting his today due to having netspend. Was just wondering what time netspend usually posts
-
Still waiting on my letter from 2/5
-
Did anyone receive letter that was mailed 02/05?
-
That dam Corona virus made it to Mass faster then my check made it to my mailbox 🙄😂
-
That dang Corona virus made it to mass faster than my check 🙄😂
-
@mari
Massconnect updates at night usually between 7:30-1030pm and in the morning after 730am -
Does anyone else have a chime card and have ddd 2/14 or have a chime card and got their ddd yet what time dif it arrive because I believe I should be getting my refund today because I have an early pay card. Refund accepted 2/8 and on 2/11 at 9pm got update of ddd if 2/14
-
@Sha060809
What do you mean by testing? -
does Mass Connect update through out the day? Or just at night?
-
It seems like if you file before or during testing, it could take up to 14 or 15 days. If you file after testing is done, then it shouldn’t take more than a week. The one year I filed after testing on 2/8 I had my money in my account on 2/14. I pray everyone receives good news today!
I filed 1/30 was accepted 1/31. And 2/6 got a DDD for 2/11.
-
@ Dinap thank you.
-
@Ladyem24
Im so sorry. I hope everyday When I check it will be happy news from you, LOL. Keep us posted and keep your chin up. It’s coming. 😁
-
Last year my screen was processing. Never updates to ddd and had my money in 11 days🙏🏻
-
Not understanding why mine was accepted on 1/26 and is still in processing. Nothing changed since last yr.was wondering if it might have to do with fed holding out till late feb to release refunds if you file eic. Any thoughts people
-
@mari
And i was accepted 2/7 i got ddd 2/13 i think every case in different. Maybe they are taking more with her because is the first year filing taxes…
-
@mari. My aunt was recieved 2/7 and is processing yet, no letter and nothing.
-
No check today 😪 I’m going back to bed
-
@mari
Just from my experience. When they received and accepted my returns, it’s either gave me a refund date within 3 days or none and I have to send it after getting their letters. I have family members who also experiences the same. Hopefully yours is different. Responding to their letters takes an entire month to be heard back from. -
@rob
I called yesterday and they told me they had not sent any letters to me and that was a good thing. -
@mari
If it is processing more than 3-5 days, it will stay that way and you will get a letter with instruction on what to do next. The states sends around 150,000 letters out to filers annually. The Globe ran an article on it a few years ago: -
State return accepted on 2/6. Still processing, Deposit still showing in Green since last Thursday, no DDD, anyone else? Does it take this long?
-
@Ladyem24 Thanks!!!!! Now its showing up in black and now the date next to it says 2/13 not 2/8 so I’m thinking the same thing I do have different dd info from last year. So I’m guessing that second date is when they actually mail them out.
-
@Ladyem24
My paper check says issued 02/10 I’m still waiting for it to arrive. I have informed delivery and doesn’t look like it will be arriving today. Hopefully we see it soon🤞🏽 -
A Letter was mailed 2/5 and I still have not received it.
-
DDD 2/12 Green Dot DD — 5AM

-
@ Brett
I’m super stoned rn you literally have me crying laughing at 1am ty so much for that. I needed those lovely words of encouragement now I’ll sleep lovely 😴😁😂 -
@ladyem24
You got this tomorrow is YOUR day when you walk to that mailbox that beautiful check should looking you right in the eyes
-
@ Michael
Lmao thank you I appreciate it 🙏 trying to stay a good sport 😂😂😂 -
@ladyem good luck for tomorrow. I been following your struggle lol
-
So this is a first. I filled my sons taxes on Sunday and his state was approved 2 hours ago with 2/14 direct deposit.
Mind blown. I’ve never seen an approval in 2 days. -
@ K
Btw tmrw will be day #4 I been waiting … I will keep you updated on when I get it and where its sent from -
@ K
Same happened to me it was sent out Thursday or Friday of last week from North Shore Ma I havent got it yet …… & no it cant be fixed when I called and asked why all they said was because of security measures I’m guessing because I changed banks from last year to now.
All we can do is wait for it to come I know it sucks … -
@ Brett
Thank you I hope so lol -
LAdyem24
Dont you just love you live on the north shore and that’s one of the 3 places yet its coming from the furthest point I am sorry for that but I wanna say I’d bet my last 100 bucks you’ll get it tomorrow
-
Has anybody set up DD and dor is saying paper check will be mailed on the 13th? And can that be fixed?
-
@Brett
When I called Friday they said it was getting sent from North shore Mass. . I live in (Springfield) so I was hoping it would come from there but nope North shore lol I’m trying to stay optimistic on the bright side I get my good ole pay checky tmrw 😂😁 -
@pamela martins i updated lastnight ddd 2/13 around 10:45pm 10:50pm cause i was like crazy checking out at 10:30 and nothing 😂
-
The tracker starts to update around 1030pm it seems like and mtc itself over night.
-
What time of day does MTC update ?
-
Just got my.dd was for 2/12. And it just hit my.emerald card at 8:55pm with my.fees taken out of my.state
-
@ladyem24
What part do you live on theres 3 different places they could get sent from Boston Springfield and forget the city hut it’s in the north shore day 4 I’d say you would 100% have to have it day 1 print the check day 2 it makes.it.into usps 3 goes to your hub and 4.your MAILBOX!!!! fingers crossed for you

Was always told when they get the deposit the emeralds card doesnt hold it and just issues.it to you my dd is tomorrow was just seeing if I’d get it between 3-6am or 3-6pm cant remember fromnpast years on the time I got it lol and I’m happy you got it all instead of them making your state tiny 🙏
-
Hoping I see my check tmrw in the mail day #4 tmrw so it has to be there 😁🙏
-
@tae they definently didnt to me and I’ve had both my state and federal put on emerald card last 2 years and they didnt take a penny out of my state which I got first and I had more than enough to cover it if they wanted. Maybe that is different for you but I have no reason to just make that up lol
-
I’ve always gotten my state first even when I had to wait for a check last year smh this year isn’t my norm
-
@Brett it’s all good bro. I had a ddd of 2/10 which was yesterday and it went on my emerald card at 6am which was obviously awesome lol. I was worried because I had it going on the emerald card that it would take an extra day or 2 but it didnt
-
@take
That’s all I was saying
-
1 I’m not sure about Jackson Hewitt or the other advance Loans from other companies but H and R block definitely takes it out if you have your stuff deposited to the Emerald card which ever one they get 1st they will take it
-
Was your ddd for the 10th and did you get it in the morning or did it take a bit to get to you this year
-
I’m not lying but from experience over years always get my state first because of being a pather and my advance gets taken out of that no malicious intent here apolagize if anyone took it that way congrats on the dd and hope all the federals are smooth and quick.
-
Still didn’t receive it today spoke to dor they said if I don’t receive it by the end of the week calls back because there is another option but the letter is the easier way I guess
-
@Brett stop telling people they definelty take out fees from whatever is first. You think I’m lying but last year and this year they didnt take it out of my state which I got first. My fees and advance equal 1250 and my state refund was 1500 and I got the full 1500 yesterday.
-
No i have the earned income credit so I wont be getting my fed until later. Got my entire state though and my advance was more than that.
-
Did you get your fed yet it takes feed or advance.out of whatever you get first it doesnt just remove it from the state or the federal just whatever they can grab first
-
Shae060809
Was that the date they gave you for your dd? I guess I’m asking if it came the exact date ? -
Hmm was under the impression my refund advance was coming out of my state…but just got it deposited with no money taken out.
-
Got a ddd for tomorrow 2/12.had an advance but state was still double the advance let’s see if I get the remainder tomorrow
-
My refund is pending in my bank account. DDD 2/13
-
@Rob omg thats horrible ugh
-
in the past, 4-6 weeks. Who knows about this year.
-
@ Sha060809
Nope no check again today if it’s not here tmrw I’m going to start Getting real aggy ! Smh glad u got your stuff Sha060809 -
@rob how long after the letter do you typically get your refund?
-
Joslyn
Mails from DOR are usually 10 days in between being printed and you receiving it. It is always like that for me. Then the 30 days to respond from the date is even shorter. They are really awful. -
Does Mass connect update thru out the day? Or just at night?
-
Been waiting since the 5th for my letter
-
@ Amy only if you took the advance
-
I got a refund advance from jackson hewitt, directly deposited to my debit card, anyone know if they will take my state?
-
Thank you
-
Got my $ today. Ddd 2-11 Santander
Good luck all.
Ladyem24 – anything this morning?
-
If its green its processing then when it turns back to 0 and black its done and you will see a ddd on tracker or under refund tab on mtc.
-
Got my DD this morning, hopefully everyone sees theres soon!
-
For Mass what does it mean if the refund shows in green or black? Thank you
-
@Joslyn how long is it now that you are still waiting on letter. Mine is going out today so I am just wondering.
-
Just got a message back the letter they sent will not appear on mass tax connect and I have to wait for it in the mail because it contains sensitive information. Now I am just mad.
-
@tae I am in the same boat but there is no letter. I just sent them a message. My refund is finally there showing in green and parenthesis. I filed on 2/3/2020 and just got accepted 2/8/2020.
-
Balance turnt black this morning.
-
If they said they sent a letter you need to look under the correspondence tab. Even if it says no letters, click anyways.
-
I just update to a letter needing more info , is that because I changed to a paper check this year ? Waiting for it to show up in my inbox I’m supposed to receive everything electronically from them..
-
I checked the wheres my refund status.. no return found.. so I logged into MTC … checked the refund tab.. and I have a ddd for Feb 13th .. so they’re coming guys!
-
@emily you should be able to click addresses tab and update info there. Once you sign into you’re account I did that had my old info on record
-
The said it would be easier this which was a big lie. I filed on 1/31 the just accepted it on the 8th just seen processing on mtc hopefully by end of week it will dd to chime card
-
Well I got a msg that says they’re sending me a letter additional info is needed. It also says to log into the MA site and I did that and I don’t see a letter. I’m going to find the number and call today. So bummed was really looking forward to my state taxes this week now I’m super nervous smh always something
-
@Emily: You can email the request or call the number for ma tax dept (617) 887-6367. They have an option there for ma tax accounts. Hope that helps.
-
Morning! DDD of 2/13 given. I have Santander so I don’t expect it any sooner but at least it’s finally there.
-
Does anyone know how to change contact info on the mass website? It trying to text a code to an old number I no longer have to allow me on the site with the dates 😐
-
So mad I still haven’t recieved my Pin in the mail so I can verify smh it’s been almost a week
-
Filed 02/01 accepted the 3rd. Still processing nothing yet….getting impatient I need the money soooo bad lol
-

-
Just got an update showing dd sent to bank on 2/13.
-
People that are still in processing for state CHECK AGAIN my sis just got a surprise update at 1030pm DDD for 2/13 ..
-
I can’t pull my transcipts., I’d have to have them mailed. I filed 1/13 but TT didn’t send it until 1/27 and accepted same day. Been on path since 2/1.
-
I can see my transcripts. At first the transcript on the bottom right showed up with 2019 and no info on file. This past Friday morning I had the other 3 showing 2019 and they all had info. The one on the bottom right still shows nothing though. Filed 1/31. Accepted 1/31. WMR updated to PATH message this past Saturday.
-
@ Sha060809
Well be getting ours real soon , YOU most likely before me lol but I know its coming
I signed up for informed delivery so hopefully I see something beautiful tmrw morning 🙏 -
@Ladyem24
I was just wondering if you got it yet lol. My deposit doesn’t go in until hopefully tonight after midnight so don’t feel bad. Lol you’ll def have it by Wednesday for sure! 😁 It’s almost here.
-
Any one not able to see their federal transcripts?
-
Accepted 1/27 with amt still in green. No new update. No movement. Zero info from rep on phone. She said she cant see anything yet to call back in 2 days. Maybe she knows something we don’t know.
-
@Sha060809
Checked the mail no check today but I’m sure by Wednesday I’ll get it & I signed up for informed delivery , so hopefully soon 🙏🙏🙏
-
Che
That’s just the standard msg for federal refund.
And Melmilano
It depends on your bank as far as if it gets deposited early or not. I have a regular bank and my DDD. Is 2/11 so I won’t get it until processing tonight in my account but a lot of the prepaids get it early.
-
Does anybody know what this means?
We have received your tax return and it is being processed. If you filed a complete and accurate tax return, your refund should be issued within 21 days of the received date. However, processing may take longer under certain circumstances. Please check here or visit the Refunds page on IRS.gov, to check on your refund status.
-
Does the state refund only come on the DDD date or can it come in early?
-
Another year another fail by Mass DOR. Every single year without any rhyme or reason I have to I.D verify. 5 years in a row. Nothing has changed nothing is different.
-
Anyone else have jackson hewitt and get an alert that mass has accepted your return but the tax account page shows no refund found?
-
Any netspenders with no fees taken out 2/12 ddd get a deposit yet?
-
Filed 1/19
Accepted 1/22
Ddd 2/10I just got my tax money put on my hr block emerald card! Good luck everyone!
-
Another year stuck in limbo with “processing” (they received in on 1/31), meaning in a week I will get a letter for further clarification. IE, I need to submit a printed FED and STATE to send in. This happens every OTHER year. Get your crap together, as I have filed the same tax with the same employer and bank account in the last 5 year.
-
Well went to the refund tab and it says issued 2/12/20 with my amount in white on the right of that either way both say same date 👍👍
-
So I went on mtc for the hell of it I dont see any green black at all look up personal tax and I get a number then in parentheses a credit with my balance equaling 0 where do you see the green black stuff haha online it shows ddd for 2/12
-
When you do the where’s my refund it shows the ddd there when you get one and the next morning your mtc should go from green to black. There is also a refund tab on mtc that you can look at. Once you hit personal income tax the choices at the top, the last one is refunds. Once you get a ddd it will show there as well. This year where’s my refund has been updating first the night before then mtc the next morning.
-
It’s just driving me nuts. Seems like everyone else is moving along nicely.. and then there’s me .. still processing. Its aggravating I want my money!!!
-
@Ashley: Same. Only I was accepted 1/27. Still green when I sign in. Still says received and processing when do the ssn and amount. Called and they said everything looks fine on their end and that I dont need to do anything else. ???
-
@ Ashley
I dont have a mtc account I just use the social and amount and that pops out processed and a ddd of 2/12 have never signed into MTc so idk if my number is green black white or red haha
-
Good evening,
I see everyone saying their refund is still showing in green but mass tax connect showing Ddd date. I just want to be sure I am looking in the correct place. I have a MTC account and when I sign in its green. But if I sign out & click the wheres my refund link and type my social and refund amount it is still showing processing. Is this where your all finding your ddd date? I submitted on 1/30 accepted on 1/31 and nothing yet. But people filed after me and are already getting dates. -
They usually do not ever hold it l. I also got a advance and it gets taken out whatever money you get first state federal luckilyni got a smaller advance than what my state return is so I will at least see something on wednesday. Also had a return from rhode island cuz I worked there that’s processed just waiting for a ddd so either way I’ll get a couple grand before the damn irs even pays me my chunk GL to all!!!!! We are getting close to ending this tears S***storm!!!!
-
Thanks Brett for that info
I wasnt sure if they held it or not. -
Filed and accepted 2/4. Ddd of 2/12. Going on netspend card and already paid when I filed. Will update when I actually get the deposit netspend usually a couple days early.
-
MA Filed 2/3
MA Accepted 2/4
DDD 2/12 updated this morning 2/9 -
Gm, Just a heads up For the ones who filed with H and R blockIf you took any advance from them and you’re getting your state check deposit to their card they will take your advance out of your state.. Even though they tell you it will come from federal .but if you get your state direct the positive that card it will take it Hope this helps anybody dealing with hr block and the Emerald card. Happened to me 3 years ago and I was pissed . A plan
-
I have emerald card too they do not hold funds once there is a ach transfer itll be on the card I always get my dd on the emerald card between 7-9pm est the night before the ddd I wouldnt worry
-
Filed 1/19
Accepted 1/22
Ddd 2/10Hoping to see it In my account tomorrow morning but I have emeralds card with her block so I prob wont see it till later in the week.
-
I filed 1/30, accepted 1/31 and got ddd on 2/6 i think of 2/11. When I filed 2/8 one year I got it in 6 days on 2/14. I think when you file after testing is done it may come quicker.
-
I have Santander and last year it came right on the day. It was a Monday and Sunday night into Monday right at like 1205am I got it. So hopefully it’ll be the same this year cuz it won’t come sooner lol. My ddd us 2/11.
-
For all the ones posting ddd can you please share when you filed/ return was accepted please? I recall receiving my refund within a week last year, wonder if it’s going to be the same this year….
-
Hi! I got a DDD of 2-12-2020 I have Santandar for a bank. Will I receive the money that day or does it come earlier? Is 2-12 the latest or could it come after that?
TIA -

@ Dianap
Most likely Monday Mass Is moving quick this year ! Def check Monday -
When is the next update for Mass????
-
Got DDD of feb 12th. Finally!!
-
Updated last night this morning to a refund sent and dd for 2/12/20 YAY !!! Finally mass everyone gl
-
I updated as well on the where’s my refund page to a ddd of 2/12/2020. But on mass tax connect I’m still on green in parentheses. I was accepted on 2/4. Wonder if the mass tax connect page will update Monday. Was happy to see the ddd shown somewhere.
-
I was finally accepted by MA on Thursday 2/6 after filing 1/20. I am still in green but the where’s my refund for mataxconnect is showing DD of 2/12.
I still haven’t even processed for Fed yet
-
@kionna I wish it was that. When I check my refund it says more info required which is either audit or id verify😭 I can’t see it online and they couldn’t see it on there end when I called so now I have to wait to receive it by mail. Idk why the last 4 years it’s always something
-
@cs82: I also called to ask about a letter I couldn’t view. Turns out it was just a confirmation letter of my signing up for the acct to mass tax connect. That’s it. Hard copy was in the mail when I got home.
-
Last night we all started to update around 1030pm maybe? That was on the refund tracker. The green on MTC didn’t change to black until this morning.
Ladyem24 – I bet your check will be here by Tuesday the latest😁 It is really random though. I changed banks last year and it didn’t happen to me but lots of others.
Lynzee – I can’t check my transcripts online so im at their mercy lol. Last year I didn’t update to path until the 2nd Saturday and I got a ddd of 2/27 after path lifted. I updated the first Saturday this time so im hoping for a ddd of the 19th this year haha. Wishful thinking or at least by 2/26 I hope. 😁😁😁
-
When does mass update. Had i.d verify 2 days ago. Was wobderin if would update to ddd for 11th
-
I can’t see my letter on masstaxconnect. Tried calling them and they couldn’t see it also he said I have to wait for it to come in the mail. Does anyone know what kind of letter it could be if I can’t see it online? TIA
-
How often does mass update. Just wondering when the rest of us still I’m green might expect the next ddd
-
Oh Nd also no PATH msg for federal I’m on 1 bar still ……
-
@ Sha060809
Your right at least we kno moneys coming but a check though? why they do me like that 😂😂 said it’s coming from North Shore Mass😪😣😣 in my whole 6 years filing in MA this is the 1st time me ever getting a check from them so idk what to expect . ————-And this Is not the 1st time I changed my banking info—— -
@Sha …I don’t even have the path message yet and my transcripts say N/A and my wage transcript says “no record of return found” .. I am kinda freaking out!
-
Totally stinks but at least we have a date now. Grateful for that. 😁 Now I just have to wait for path to lift and get a date for fed. 😆
-
Same Sha! LOL
-
Mine won’t hit until the 11th lol. I have a regular bank. So jealous! Haha but happy for you all of course!😁😁😁
-
@ladyem I didn’t… Knowing my bank it will either be there right on the 11th or a day or two after!
-
Wow those deposits are coming quick !!!! Ugh why did they have to send me a paper check I probably won’t see my refund for another week .. kinda bummed I was planning on doing my 2 yr olds party this weekend and now it wont happen always something to hold me back …… people with checks keep me posted please I feel like I’m twindling in the wind now not getting any questions answered because everyone done got their direct deposit already
-
@radshackgirl77 (aka: Erika K) I have chime as well and did my refund for direct deposit, so when was your direct deposit suppose to hit? Did you get it early? When did you file and when did you get accepted? Sorry if you already said it
-
I wish I had one of them! LOL I have TD Bank and I probably will get it sometime next week
-
Chime just hit
-
Just got my deposit on my Netspend! :) good luck to everyone!
-
@radshackgirl77(aka:Erika K) thank you!!! i am hoping i will be accepted soon
-
@rosa: you can be accepted any time of day. Any real time updates as far as ddd or Id verify etcetera will update during the day but you will find out from a live person over the phone
-
Not true they update during the day just not in automated batches. For example, your turn might require a manual over ride because the system didn’t work. Happens all day every day
-
So I was never able to log on to mass tax connect but I have a 2-11 ddd. I have netspend so I wouldn’t be surprised if I got it tonight. I got mine last year on the 7th at 5:30 pm.
-
I filed on the 3rd and still havent been accepted does this seem right?
-
@radshackgirl77(aka:Ericka K) thanks! So i guess there is no point in checking every hour huh lol
-
@rosa: no they don’t update during the day
-
does mass connect update during the day?
-
@tiffanyann143: that’s what I’m hoping for. 🤑
-
I have Netspend. Should hit around 4-5pm
-
@lynzee:I have chime
-
Do you both have credit unions? Wondering when it will hit my bank!
-
Spoke to the dor people yesterday they said they are sending me a letter with a pin for extra security measures. Never heard of this for mass only federal.
-
The website says check will be issued 2/10 but I opted for dd. Called this morning and rep said they are sending paper check. I know checks are sent from Boston so guess I will just wait!
-
And my federal hit the bank 2/19 last year with all child credits.
State Money is coming today guys! I know it hahahaha
Good luck all -
🤞
-
@Damons6: I was just thinking the same thing. Every year the day I update with direct deposit date it hits my card that day. Last year it was about 5pm.
-
@milly
I think they mean small batch of deposits not meaning small amounts ..like the amount of your refund doesn’t matter. They are releasing a small number as they just finished the “testing process”
They seem to be working fast this year I’m sure yours is coming up -
Ok guys!!! Check your banks all day today!
Last year I had a 2/11 dd date I just checked my bank statement from that year and it was in the bank 2/7
I have a credit union and get early deposits. It may be like that for some of you as well. I remember last year the deposit came in randomly in the afternoon
So check those banks
I filed 1/30 accepted 1/31 went green in black now with zero balance and date dd 2/11 -
Filed 1/27 accepted 2/6 go on the site says accepted 1/27 n still processing no money amount or anything ridiculous
-
So much for the theory of them issuing small deposits first…my husband got approved this am for dd date of 2/11 he is getting twice as much as me and I am still processing…smh
-
@cs82: I believe that’s why
-
@ Tae
I am getting a check mailed said it was sent out yesterday . I filed with turbo tax Jan 30th and got accepted jan 31st@ Katie MARKS
Try switching to the desktop version of mass connect then you will see a refund tab once you click on personal taxes… hope I was helpful -
GM, I’ve been follow in this page for few years now I don’t speak much I just take in the information but I was wondering those who have a deposit day or check issue date for the 11th when were you accepted
-
What is the link to check for refund? I think I’m not looking at the right page
-
I’m in black and 0s … I finally can see my check number of my check they sent … let’s hope I get it quick 🤨 really wish it was a direct deposit instead but what can I do but wait smh
-
DDD for Feb 11th!
-
I’m in black too! Yay and under refund tab it’s there as DD. Phew!
Ladyem24-
Last yesr everyone who got checks, got them quickly. 😁 It probably is coming from Boston.
-
@radshackgirl77: That’s what I’d been doing all along. There’s a message saying I filed on the 25th (accepted 27th) and that it’s processing. Been like that since getting accepted.
-
@radshackgirl77 yes and no. I used turbo tax card last year for my deposit was made to us verify and sent a check. this year I got the advance from turbo tax and they sent me a new card and account for some reason instead of my one from last year.
-
@cs82: did you change banks
-
Pissed checked my masstaxconnect it’s green. I read to check the refund status instead of mass tax. And of course additional information required. Don’t know what same kids and same address. I didn’t get my state until late March last year cause of this 😡😡
-
Refund issue date feb 11
Mass tax connect is now zero balance in black
🙌🏻 -
@kionna: check the where’s my refund option on mass tax connect instead of your account page. That’s where the rest of us seen an update
-
I updated overnight to my direct deposit being sent 2/11, hoping everyone else that’s been patiently waiting sees an update too!
-
@radshackgirl77: That’s what I was hoping someone would say. Refund amount still in green parentheses. Thank you for your response.
-
@kionna: so far it seems that no id verify is required as of right now.
-
Good morning everyone. So after 4 days of trying, I was finally able to view the “correspondence letter” on MTC. It was just a letter saying thank you for signing up. So does that mean I don’t have a verification letter coming? Anyone else have a similar situation? Thanks for any feedback.
-
Mines still processing accepted 2/6 but when I go on mass connect it said being processed since 1/27 no amount or anything
-
@Sha060809
This is my 1st time getting issued a paper check , do u know what city they come from and how long they usually take … I live in Springfield -
Mines still in green but the where’s my refund says DDD 2-11. Different from last year. My green balance went to black 0.00s first. Bit as long as it’s true I’ll take it!
-
Mine is too still in green too wth. Probably over night it’ll update? Ddd 2-11 as well. Yay!
-
Last year I got it on the same day that I got a ddd but that’s only because I have Netspend. So hopefully tomorrow for me :)
-
Just wondering is everyone’s amount still in GREEN? Mine is . I think they know we’re catching on to the system lol 😉
-
I’m happy every one updated 😁😁😁😁
Mine also changed from processing to check mailed on the 10th . But the rep I spoke with today said it was sent out today so I hope its true… now the waiting game for me I hope the checks get mailed from Springfield because i live In Springfield .. CONGRATS to all of you!!!!!! &&& the ones who havent updated I hope you do soon 😎 -
Yay 2/11.. now for next question, does it go in that day or like a few days after?
-
Same, direct deposit for 2/11. Weird that it updated at this time but I’m excited
-
Me to just checked said they issued dd for 2/11 and it must have just updated cause I’ve been checking every hour hahahah
Yay!! -
Just got ddd for the 11th!!
-
Just got a ddd for the 11th
-
I was looking back and 2016 and last year I had to id verify. Idk why same kids same address everything. Hope it doesn’t happen again this year
-
I think changing your bank might increase your chances of either ID Verify or getting a check instead of DD. I changed banks last year though and neither happen to me so it doesn’t mean it will either. Everything is the same this year so it better not happen to me this time lol.
-
I had to id verify last year what are the odds I will have to do it again this year? Does changing your bank increase your chances of Id verify ? TIA
-
@sha060809: I’m with you on that one.
-
Please update tonight for us ALL! lol I just want to know its coming and when 😄.
-
My RI state tax was approved and it says refund approved today but I got nothing in my acct!. Smh
-
@ Brett
GLAD TO HEAR MY MAN. Wish the same for you! Blessings!
-
@marquise
Same thing happened to be to funny emailed hr block not even a free hours later I got the acceptance email for MA taxes. Its OBV they messed up somewhere congrats and good luck on a speedy dd
-
My MA state was finally accepted after filing on the 27th. I Facebook messages HR Block and the lady reported my incident. 5lmaybe 5 hours later was accepted Good LUCK luck everyone 1. Worse year I had for Mass
-
Filed 1/27 MA finally accepted mine a 2:22 pm 👍 now the wait for that and the IRS
-
@ radshackgirl77 (aka: Erika K)
I know!! I also have not updated from Green. I just really wish I was getting a direct deposit but nothing I can do but wait….
I hope everyone updates in the morning we all need our coins 💰💰 -
I really hope they don’t keep us hanging and just give us an update tomorrow. Otherwise it’s going to be a loooong weekend
-
@ radshackgirl77 (aka: Erika K)
I hope so they probably just mailed it before they closed and I’ll update tmrw -
Checks come from Massachusetts treasury. For some reason last year they sent a check. Came in like 3 for 4 days
-
@ladyem: I just checked online to see where their offices are located and they have an office in Springfield. It would be nice if it came from there.
-
@ladyem: im in south boston and the few times I’ve received a check it took only a couple days. However I’m not sure where it comes from.
-
@ricky: it took about 4 days after submitting my info that I received a direct deposit date. But the time varies
-
Just wondering has anyone got a check mailed before where do they come from? And how long does it usually take?
-
Am I the only one that can’t log on to mass tax connect? I know they have my correct email however I never receive the verification email. They had a message saying they were having problems sending them. Then this morning the message wasn’t there so I was hopeful it would work this time but nope. Nothing. I’m so annoyed.
-
Accepted around 4:00 today, finally!
-
@Ricky last year I submitted info on the 14th of March and got my deposit the 19th
-
@erika i uploaded ingo for i.d verify. How long for ddd now. Does it hold me up longer now. Ty
-
When i checked said letter sent out feb 6th. So i checjed mass conect and letter was in there. So it said could upload info. So i did
-
@ladyem: when I changed from card.com to chime I had to do the id verify but I still got direct deposit. And the checks usually don’t take that long to arrive
-
I meant my sister filed 2/1 accepted mins ago, waiting on mine filed 1/26 .
-
Hey H&R block filers. Massachusetts has started to accepted. My sister filed 1/1 and accepted couple minutes ago, im waitin on mine To accepted file 1/26
-
Same, I was starting to worry.
-
I do feel a little better knowing that I’m not the only one without the path message
-
@Damons I dont even have a path message just one damn bar
-
how long did it take for the state just to accept your return?
-
Idk why my msgs aren’t popping up here
-
Hi Miranda – I just heard back from the examiners. Your refund is being released today. It will not be direct deposit though. It will be issued via paper check. If you changed your bank account or anything since the last time you filed, that is why you are receiving a check instead. Its a security protocol.
-
I think I remember last year for some reason a lot of people were issued checks too. Everyone was so confused as to why. Maybe I should call lol.
-
@ radshackgirl77
The lady said because of “new protocalls” I guess because I changed from rushcard to chime im guessing …. I live in Springfield so I dont even know when to expect this check 1 -
@ladyem24
Issued by check!!! What the heck is that! Maybe they have issue with DD. Oh god well at least u got an answer
I’m on path for Fed I think we will see fed deposit come 2/16-2/20 and the path message will still be on that’s what it did to me last year had my money before path message even cleared -
@radshackgirl77: me either! So weird, and my transcripts aren’t available yet on irs.gov
-
@ladyem24: did they say why they were issuing you a check
-
So I called the DOR on my lunch break they told me they issued my refund in a check today on 2/6 . Idk why but I guess I’m getting a check.
I’m still in GREEN and processing on mass refund tracker…. so I’m guessing everyone will update tomorrow. & ALOT of us probably will be getting checks. HOPE this was HELPFUL I’m still here for questions -
@lynzee: as far as federal I haven’t even gotten the path message yet, which I think is weird
-
I filed last night, both federal and state were accepted in the middle of night.
-
How’s everyone doing with Federal taxes?
-
yup! I asked mid-Feb adn they said “as of right now there is nothing saying that you will need to verify any information” then the beginning of March “we sent you a letter asking for verification” I got my refund like March 20th or 21st
-
@lynzee: that’s insane making you wait till march
-
I am so tempted to just send them the same kind of verification documents they requested last year before they even ask. I have had to verify the last two years in a row but last year they literally didn’t ask me to verify until the beginning of March.
-
I was looking back at last year around this same date. Someone had mentioned talking to a DOR rep and was told that they were first issuing out the smaller refunds and double checking the bigger ones. I have a feeling that’s what they’re doing this year as well.
-
@radshackgirl77: crazy right?! I was all excited to get a step ahead and save that and NOPE
-
@lynzee: lol same here. I’ve been uttering the phrase “the universe is definitely against these past 2 weeks”. I’m kind of needing that money right now
-
Me too!! I never really rely on my taxes but I swear the universe is always like let’s make something happen so you NEED them lol… Of course that happened this year, where sooner is absolutely better
-
Definitely hope we update tomorrow.
-
Last year I updated on Friday February 8th for a ddd of either the 11th or the 12th I can’t remember so I’m almost certain tomorrow is when the ddd dates will hopefully drop
-
Ricky how did you know you needed to ID verify?
-
@susan it just ment i had to i.d verify. Go create mass connect acct. U can veiw letter and upload info.
-
Hello i had to i.d verify. So i just uploaded to mass connect. HOW LONG DOES IT TAKE TO PROCESS NOW THANK YOU ALL
-
@Ladyem I hope you are right, I like your prediction!
-
I predict that tmrw ALOT of people are going to get a date of 2/11 for the following Tuesday . * wishful thinking
-
@Joslyn last year I had to verify and got my refund like a week later but idk about this year because I feel like they are already slow. I am waiting because last year it took them over a month before they even asked me to verify
-
Can someone explain how much longer it takes when u have to verify?
-
@brett @RobynM I filed 1/27 with HR Block and still haven’t been accepted either.
-
I’m hoping we’re all just in a queue and our turn is coming next. Don’t think there’s anything we can do except wait now :/
-
Pending 11 days Ma State
-
No update here
-
@RobynM. Im in same boat. Filed through H&R block 1/26 and my state is pending still. I dont know what to do about this
-
No update here….
-
No update here, hopefully we’ll start to see them soon
-
No update for me kind of bummed . Was really certain I would see a DDD today . NOW I dont know what to expect, or even how long til i will see one
-
No update again still green😒
-
Thank you ladyem24!! You just made me go check and I got same message as your friend. Approved and said my refund was issued on feb 10. It’s weird the way its worded lol it says they issued it on feb 10 not that they will issue it but it’s all the same
-
@ladyem24 thanks again! Hope others get the good news tonight or when they wake up!
-
As far as the question about how to file before Jan 30, for me, I sent it through H&R and it held it (and still is) until Mass opened to accepting it.
-
As far as the question about how to file before Jan 30, for me, I sent it through H&R and it held it (and still is) until Mass opened to accepting it.
-
Filed Jan 22 and I’m still waiting to be accepted. Just putting this here for anyone else in the same situation so you know you’re not alone. Not sure what’s going on, but it’s very frustrating.
-
Last year mine didn’t update until after 9am on a Thursday for a ddd of that Monday which was the 11th last year. They seem to be updating earlier now though from what people are saying.
-
@ladyem24
I wonder how some people were able to file before 1/30? I kept trying and it said forms not available for e file used turbo tax maybe other site allowed it ? Werid
I had to wait till 1/30 to send it.
So we filed the same day and was accepted the same day. sitting in green still hopefully hours will update tomorrow? Maybe we see a ddd for 2/12? -
@ joslyn no I have no letter coming my refund says “processing”
@ Brett I filed Jan 30 was accepted Jan 31st -
When I check my refund status on the tool there is not letter in correspondence but says one is coming in mail
-
@ladyem24
Has your been accepted yet? Feel like I am the only one -
@ joslyn
Where are you seeing more information needed at?? -
Mine hasnt even been accepted on day 9 filed 1/27 getting a little frustrated
-
@ Damons6
I kno i was surprised when she sent me that. She said she filed Jan 19th … I’m guessing I wont update anytime soon I filed Jan 30th and I’m still “processing” .. -
Anyone else get hit with the needs more information status?
-
@ladyem24
Thanks for the info. So 2/10 must be the earliest they are giving ..mine still says the same ..
I would’ve thought Friday deposits would hit? But hey it’s movement right -
In sorry 12:25AM not 1:25AM
-
Hey everybody my co worker screen shotted a picture on the mass tracker hers says approved and issued for 2/10/2020 as of 1:25 AM …. mine is still processing though EVERYONE CHECK YOUR STUFF DDD ARE COMING
-
Hr block said mass wasnt accepting returns until the 4th that day came and went and still no info did mine 1/27 almost positive they fucked up
-
Praying we see ddd tomorrow for friday??
@jesenia try where’s my refund ma google that and enter your info without logging into ma tax connect
There’s two ways to check it. That one will tell u it’s received and being processed. When you log in to ma connect itself it should show u in green the amount of your refund -
Filed on the 27th..federal accepted Same day and state on the 31st..when I check mass tax connect it says no refund found? And when I check on Jackson Hewitt account it says in process? It’s been like this since the 31st..anyone going thru this too? Where else can I check my mass state refund?
-
Ladyem24: that’s what I’m hoping for too
-
Just seen that now awesome! Hopefully we all get a DDD tmrw 🙏
-
Mass department of revenue Facebook page posted an update a little while ago. It states that the first batch of refunds will be issued this week
-
Hey everyone I just wanted to say, after years of having to i.d verify , 5 years in a row to be exact, I have seen movement on my return and have a green amount on MTC. My return was accepted on 2/4.
A little bit of advice for anyone that gets the message that more info is needed and they say a letter can be seen on MTC. I have NEVER had a letter show up on MTC. I have always for the past 5 year, had to call them to get any info and faxing or messaging your info to them on MTC is going to be your best bet.Good luck.
-
Idk why my old msgs keep repeating its annoying me sorry u guys 😣
-
I couldn’t help myself seen the DOR active on Facebook I had to ask if my refund is processing will I see a update DDD soon ? And this was the DOR Facebook response . HOPE THIS IS TRUE LOL . & YES I WROTE TO THEM ON FACEBOOK MESSENGER LIKE A BOSS 😂😂😂
Hi Miranda – Yes, if you are seeing processing, it is very likely you were pulled in one of those small batches. You’ll start to see more movement on your return this week.
-
I emailed DOR on their Facebook page and they replied to me this morning . HOPE THIS IS TRUE !
Hi Miranda – Yes, if you are seeing processing, it is very likely you were pulled in one of those small batches. You’ll start to see more movement on your return this week.
-
I guess it was the letter that we owe a small tax bill from 2016. I just got the letter in the mail last week. I figured they would just deduct that fee from my refund that is due. Or is it better to send a check?
-
@Patricia where did it tell you that they need additional information. Did you look under the correspondence tab? They are prob going to ask for social security cards and W-2
-
@Patricia it’s probably going to be to verify your identity I had to do that 2 years ago and was not able to view the document online I had to wait for it in the mail
-
My Massachusetts tax status says they need additional information but fails to mention what info they need. They said I could see the letter on Mass Connect but no letter is there. I even called and they have no idea. My refund is still in green. Anyone have any ideas? Ty!
-
Ladyem24
Thank you for sharing! Hopefully we all get good news in the am. 😁
-
Jennifer
Was the balance less or more then before?
-
@ lynzee
Hello good afternoon. I was just wondering when the 1st batch of refunds are due to come out for taxes ?I read something about Feb 4th . Is that true?————— REPLY Hi – We have not set any definitive dates as of yet. Typically in the first week of the season, we will test and process small batches of returns in the system.
MY REPLY BACK ******——– So if my return says processing I’m in that small batch? Just wondering
HOPE THIS WAS HELPFUL ! -
@Ladyem what did you say when you emailed them?
-
Emailed them this is what I got back::::
Hi Miranda – Yes, if you are seeing processing, it is very likely you were pulled in one of those small batches. You’ll start to see more movement on your return this week.
-

Filed State on MA DOR site 1/31/2020
just received rejection 2/5/2020 11:53am due to my input typing error
fixed and refiled 12:29pmState is working on returns and I made the error. Back to the end of the line for me!
-
@Jennifer I think if the balance is in green in () then it is being processed. it might be a different amount because they adjusted it
-
So, I filed the 30th, Was accepted by the 1st. was green until this morning and then when I logged in to mass tax connect the green balance went to a different amount. When I hit summary the tax amount was black, the credit was in () and a balance in green. I have never seen this….someone please help :(
-
I went back to my emails from last years thread and i saw that everyone got the update thursday morning.
-
@Lynzee. Got it! Thanks so much for the help!
-
@Dana fingers crossed that is how it is going this year!
-
Last year, I was green on Monday. Black on Thursday. DDD on account Friday. Money in the bank Monday the 11th. I’m hoping for the same this year. So far, it’s aligned. I was accepted on Saturday. Went to green on Monday. See what happens tomorrow.
-
@Mike: Are you signing into Mass Tax Connect or just doing where’s my refund? When you log on there will be your refund amount in green once it is processing and then when it’s done it changes to black
-
Hi guys! What do you guys mean about moving from Green to Black? When I check Mass Connect, it just says processing but there’s no color. Thanks!
-
Last year it changed for me on Thursday from green to black with a date of Monday, but not until after 9 or 10am. Im crossing my fingers for tomorrow lol. If that doesn’t happen then who knows haha. The longest its ever taken is 14 days, but I know every year is different.
-
Still green
-
Still not accepted :(
-
No update for me as well still green
-
Green as well 😫 they’re taking their time this year
-
Still no update for me either, sitting pretty in green
-
@dewy oh no! I checked just now as well still green!!! I was hoping to see a change today. I have high hopes we will see a ddd for this week Friday or before.
Maybe not.. Who knows how fast or slow they want to work. Every year is different -
Just checked and still no update as mine turned green a week ago…
-
Finally just got accepted filed 1/30
-
Finally accepted just a few minutes ago! (Filed 1/30)
-
My state was deposited on the 11th last year. Hopefully I get it by tomorrow this year lol
-
@ Lynzee
Mine says the same . I got ballsy yesterday and emailed dor on mass connect got the generic 4-6 weeks msg blah blah blah . Last year I emailed them and got sent my DDD. Awh well all i can do is wait and check once a day. Fingers crossed !! -
@robynm I have the same situation
-
@Czarface fingers crossed! I am waiting to see when you go black, since you have been doing this for a while :-) Then I will feel better that there is movement
-
@lynzee: that was probably it. It happened to me when i had my son 3 years ago but since then ive had no problems
-
Last year it was the same though… actually sorry I added a child so maybe that was the change.
-
@lynzee: if your return is basically the same as last year, i wouldn’t worry too much.
-
@czarface that would be awesome
@ladyem I am just scared what happened last year will happen again and all of a sudden in March they will ask for more information. And then it will be the end of March before I get anything
-
@Lynzee
Yeah I sent them a email today and they replied with the generic 4-6 weeks for processing….. Last year when I emailed them they sent me my DDD in the responding email
It’s still pretty early only 4th . When they said the first round of refunds were going out Feb 4 I believe it is the Paper checks they are printing or sending out and People should UPDATE by the weekend! -
@czarface: that would be awesome
-
I am guessing tomorrow morning most of us will see our direct deposit date for the 11th. Depending on your bank you might see it on the 6th. Just an educated guess.
-
I called the phone number just to see and it said “you’re refund is being processed, please allow up to 60 days for your refund to be processed” WHAAAATTTTT?? It better not take 60 days!!
-
@Ladyem I think it only updates once every morning so now we have to wait until tomorrow to see.. ugh!
-
I guess no movement .. come on Mass dor said 1st batch of refunds would be Feb 4th … JULY to me 😂
-
@Damons6, last year took FOREVER! I got my refund end of March. Turned green beginning of Feb and then beginning of March they sent a letter saying they needed more info. I am hoping that is not the case this year.
-
I couldn’t file Ma until 1/30 efile didn’t open until the 30th was accepted 1/31 went to balance in green 2/3
I am hoping ddd soon most years it took 4-5 days since accepted to get deposit however last year or the year before they took forever I got my state after my federal in March! Looks like they are moving faster this year. I’d say those that are seeing green will get the ddd before Friday -
@Lynzee. Thanks. I figured as much. I had some lottery winnings to report this year so I expected a delay. I’ve never had any winnings to report before. Nothing crazy but enough for a delay I guess.
-
Submitted return to MA on Jan 22, they opened on January 27th, I’m still waiting to be accepted. Anyone else? :/
-
@ladyem same… Let’s go!
-
@kionna most likely, you can view the correspondence on mads tax connect instead of waiting for mail. I have never had federal do it. MA asked for more info last year
-
Mornin all. So if Ma tax connect email says they sent “new correspondence” does that mean they are requesting more info? And will the federal do the same?
-
I don’t even want to check until after 8
-
@ladyem: I’m with you on that one 😏
-
6 am and still nothing come on now press those lovely buttons and approve us
-
6 am & nothing …. just still processing smh
-
@ricky: I really wish I could give you a straight answer on that one. There is really no telling with Massachusetts. Sometimes it can be a quick 4-5 day turnaround. And sometimes it could take a lot longer. A lot of things factor in for timeframes like if they need more info. I’m honestly hoping for a date by Thursday but you never know.
-
Just checked says credit in green. How long for ddd. Ty all
-
@ Marquise I would definitely give h&r block a call tmrw morning! Jus to make sure they sent everything ok.
-
Filed the 27th with hr block still not accepted yet. Massachusetts is a joke. Slow at everything they do!
-
Filed the 27th with hr block still not accepted yet. Massachusetts is a joke. Slow at everything they do!
-
@brett im same boat🤦🏼♀️ Filed 1/26 no accepted. I dunno what going on. Im calling to H&R block tomorrow!!
-
Filed 1/27 still no acceptance for MA but worked in RI and that got accepted 1/30 there a problem with my mass saw a thing they wernt accepting til 2/4 but other people have had their returns accepted? Got 5 kids and need the money pretty bad just sucks
-
Mass Tax
Filed 1/29
Accepted 1/31
Went green today!
Hoping for DDD this week!! -
Anyone not been accepted yet?!? I filed 1/20
-
I’m finally able to log into my mass connect website thingy .. My amount Is green and in parenthesis ( Dont know how long it’s been green for) Hope we see movement by Wednesday.
-
Went green today! Filed and accepted 1/30
-
Last year they wanted a copy of my social and my kids socials and 1099, I am tempted to just send everything in now and hope that it moves it along
-
My state was rejected and I had to mail a paper copy with w2. This has never happened to me before. I mailed it Tuesday. I don’t even know what to expect.
-
@Ricky2122 when you sign onto Mass Tax Connect you will see your refund amount in green with parenthesis around it
-
What you all mean went green. Been accepted since jan 30th
-
Jade7777: give it until tomorrow morning you’ll probably have an acceptance by then. If not call DOR and see if they can at least see it
-
Filed 1/30 and still haven’t been accepted yet…
-
I just looked back at last year’s chat on here as well and it looks like a lot of people’s refunds were adjusted last year so it took a little extra time too.
One of my posts from last year said it turned green on Monday February 4th and I got a DDD on Thursday February 7th for the 11th. The year before I filed February 8th and the money was in my account on Valentine’s Day. Lol who knows
-
Filed 1/26 H&R block , not accepted yet. Im starting to worry
-
I submitted mine jan 15 it got accepted jan 21 and turned green jan 24… since then nothing but I have never got a ddd this early so not surprised. Would be great to get a ddd this week…
-
No changes this year so praying for sure! I didn’t get it until the End of March last year!
-
I remember that but a lot of us got it quickly unless you had a change of bank account or address or something like that.
I agree with you I don’t want to get my hopes up either but the past 3 years I’ve gotten it in 14 days at most and six days at the least. Pray lol
-
@Sha060809: Thank you…
Looking back to last year, people were green for WEEKS before they ended up getting a letter saying that they needed more information so now I don’t want to get my hopes up of it coming anytime soon.
-
@Lynzee: also when they issue your DDD you can see the date and the amount under the refund tab. When you’re on the homepage after you click personal income tax across the top at the very end there’s a menu that says refund and it shows all the dates and refund amounts from current year & past years.
-
I still can’t login to mass tax connect. So frustrating. It will not send my email confirmation.
-
Anyone else not accepted yet. I filed 1/30/20
-
Filed 1/27
Went green today. -
Thank you @influenz70! Hopefully that goes quickly!
-
Went green today! Filed 1/19 accepted 1/31
-
@Lynzee: it will stay green until its done processing, then it will turn black with a negative in front of it. That means its done and its only a day or two after that you will get your deposit.
-
Number is green today yay! When do you usually get a deposit after that? Where does it tell you your DDD date?
-
Hoping for a quick turnaround this year
-
My amount is in green on mass tax connect! Yay! Def possible to get ddd by the 5th Ladyem24. 😁
-
Hope to have a DDD by Feb 5th **** wishful thinking . Past 4 years it’s always been around Feb 8th I’ve got mine …. when I track it says recieved Jan 30th & processing hope this is a good sign
-
The past couple years the turnaround time has been pretty quick. Last year after I got accepted it only took a couple days to see my amount in green on mass tax connect and a couple days after that to get my DDD.
-
Accepted yesterday. How long for refund. First time filing in mass.
-
Was accepted yesterday. How long does mass take to get a refund. First time filing in mas…. ty ty
-
I just realized I can’t get on at all. The page won’t even load
-
@jess: is the verification code just not coming through to your email?
-
So I can’t login to my tax connect because of problems with the email verify. Anyone else having this issue?
-
I got accepted at 10:39 last night. Whoohoo
-
Just got the email and text. MA return accepted.
-
Filed 1/27
Just got accepted 5 minutes ago -
Finally, my return was accepted last night and updated to processing. Filed 1/19
-
Yaaay! State accepted at 1040pm. 😁😁😁
-
Me also :) moving along fast this year I see
-
Just got a text that my state was accepted :)
-
Everyone be on the look out for Tmrw. The past 2 Years in a row I’ve gotten “accepted” on the 1st of FEB & last year it was a Saturday !
-
Crossing my fingers for movement tomorrow
-
I filed 1/20 still haven’t been accepted. Nothing seen on taxconnect
-
Still not accepted… hoping maybe tomorrow
-
I haven’t been accepted yet but it did happen on a Saturday last year for me so I’m hoping it does again LOL. I remember it always updated after 9 or 10a.m. I feel like on mass tax connect anyway.
-
Has anyone who filed yesterday accepted yet? I can’t remember if last year it happened on a Saturday for me
-
Yeah that is kind of weird. At least the phone number says its processing.
-
I also called the irs number and it does say there processing and on the phone it asks you the same questions as on the app. That’s why I’m confused that has never happened to me before.
-
@samantha: I would just hold off till late tonight or tomorrow. Sometimes it can take a bit to update
-
So my federal got accepted today and I tried to view it on irs2go and it keeps saying the information I typed in is incorrect. I know I didnt type in anything wrong. I dont k ow if its saying that because you have to wait 24hours to check.
-
Last year I didn’t get state for 2 months! After asking them multiple times if they needed more verification and them saying no, at the beginning of March they sent a notice saying they needed more information. I got my money around March 28th!
-
According to the phone number refund information updates once a day at 6am….
-
@dewy: that’s about right
-
Last year I got accepted on a Saturday so it took 5 days for me, but after that I was in green by Monday and black by Wednesday I think. So it took 9 days total until I had my money after I got accepted, but I use a regular bank. Others with same DDD had it earlier. I am hoping for acceptance by Saturday:)
-
I’m gonna try calling the phone number thanks..
-
So the process as I understand it is: a) You submit your return b) they accept it. c) they post your refund amount in green with ( ) around it d) it turns black and your are given a DDD…
Looking back it seems like it usually takes like 7 days from when your refund shows up in green til you get a ddd. I remember last year it took a loooong time for me between acceptance and when they posted my refund amount in green. This year it has gone really fast so far and my refund amount showed up in green like yesterday or two days ago. I am hopeful that this means I will get a DDD in the next 5 days. Am i understanding the process correctly? Anyone? Thanks….
-
@lynzee: it takes a couple days to get an acceptance from Massachusetts
-
Anyone’s state get accepted yet that filed today?
-
Mine went up also! :) I filed the same time last year and got a ddd of the 11th but for the deposit on the 8th! So here’s to hoping it’s the same this year
-
Same here y’all mine went up also. Its not even my birthday yet!!
-
Last year I remember I filed on Monday the 27th and they got accepted on Saturday and I had my money on the 11th. I hope it goes as quick if not quicker LOL. Maybe it’ll get accepted Saturday again and not take 5 days. Keep me posted ladies!
-
@ Sha060809
I was surprised to ! Mine as well went up 400. good thing I waited for those forms lol. Now let’s hope they accept quick after all that waiting for Mass forms -
Just did mine as well. Mine went up a bit too which definitely was a pleasant surprise. Now the waiting game.
-
YAY! I checked after midnight as well and they weren’t there, but I just did them now (filed them) and it went up by $400. That was a nice surprise LOL. Good Luck Everyone:)
-
UPDATE********** Turbo forms are ready just submitted mine at 1:51AM . Goodluck to all !
-
Its past 12am and the forms on Turbo tax are still not available to file state . Now I am getting irritated. ANYONE else???????? Keep me updated Ty
-
I was way too worn out after work today to do my son’s taxes. I guess we’ll just hope and pray that everything goes through tomorrow with state. Fingers crossed
-
I agree. i used to have it in like 3 days lol.
-
State used to be the easier of the 2 for me. The past few years now state is just becoming a nightmare. I miss back in the day when we could tele file our state right over the phone. The good old days
-
Perfect! Definitely post it here. I’m not going to call them unless they are not available at like 12:01 tonight LOL. But I’d still like to know for sure. Such BS.
-
I’m going to be filing my son’s taxes today. He uses taxact. So we will fund out if it is just turbotax.
-
TurboTax is saying that the forms won’t be available until January 30th which is tomorrow. Maybe the people that are getting movement filed with someone else and TurboTax is screwing up LOL. This has never happened to me before but I’m praying tomorrow the forms are available and I can send my refund and it transmits right away and moves quickly.
-
Mine has not been accepted at all. According to TT it hasnt even been sent. I have no clue what is going on with it. Still saying no forms. And no im not trolling. If i could screen shot i would. Anyone have any ideas on how to fix this?
-
My state was transmitted on the 19th and still says that it can’t be found. Any ideas why?
-
So I was accepted on Jan 21 and the MASS.GOV website updated today to show my refund
amount in negative green…. Things are moving fast… -
@Brandon Yes it only came early because you paid out of refund….. IF you are paid in advance or no fee’s with turbo you will not get deposits till DDD
SO THAT APPLYS TO STATE TO Turbo card holders. BTW forms not available people are trolling.. -
That’s what I was saying yesterday. I saw they were available on DOR over this past weekend. They better be ready on Thursday!
-
This whole turbo tax not having the forms is weird. DOR says all forms were available the 27th. Im so confused.
-
radshackgirl77
I saw that too, but I googled it and I think we will be able to. i can’t find the original post I saw that explained it better then this one.
Hopefully Thursday they will be ready. I got mine back 2/11 last year.
-
i filed through tax-act on jan 15. It said accepted today but zero movement through the state website. I expect it to be a while as i always is for me….
-
I’m getting the same 1/30 message on turbotax but also next to w2 it just says cannot efile. Makes no sense at all
-
1040now.com says mine is Submitted, but has not been accepted by the state yet. Looking online for answers.
-
Telling me still not available as well. It says 1/30 on Turbo Tax, but they are available on DOR now?
-
@dewy: it’s still telling me the forms are not ready
-
I was accepted for MA…today.
-
Still no forms fir Massachusetts. What is the deal
-
Tax one Tax all
Welcome to Taxachusetts boysStill waiting for forms to be ready must be implementing another fee or tax to slap in there
-
When will the forms be available for Massachusetts? Anybody know?
-
Dwey, how did you file when the forms are not ready yet for Ma returns?
-
i filed on the 15th but havent been accepted yet…
-
Btw it’s Mass state return
-
So,my direct deposit date is the 29th, this Friday and I have the turbo prepaid card. My federal came a day early I was wondering if the state will be the same?! Does anybody know this. I’m wondering if it just came a day early because my,federal went through sbtpg. If anyone has insight,please help a brotha out!!! Lol thanks guys
-
0so I submitted my son,and myself ss cards on the 15th and still haven’t heard anything back amount is still,green with no,new update besides the received email through mtc ! Sheesh anybody else submit their social and have input on how long it took them,to,recieve word on update? Thanks. I hope it doesn’t take the 4 weeks they’re saying,it will took thwm,a,month to,just tell me they needed the card for christ sake lol
-
I submitted docs March 9 they were accepted the same day I haven’t received a direct deposit date yet does anyone know how long it will take. The status says processed.
-
Finally black with a $0.00 balance!!! Sheesh!
-
Sent them a message yesterday asking what is taking so long and they finally responded with a direct deposit date… 3/19
-
@Leem still waiting??
-
@Lyndsay same here!!! It’s so annoying! I submitted everything on 3/5 and still nothing updated. Online it says processed but when I called to follow up they said it’s still being processed. Like wth is the delay????
-
@Leem still nothing here either. Refund amount still green. I submitted the verification they wanted. Altho I had asked them like 4 times if they needed verification and they said no then bam I get an email saying they do. I submitted it on 3/6 it was processed 3/7 still nothing. Where’s my refund still says that they sent a letter saying more information was needed.
-
Return received 1/29. Still no update. Refund amount is still green. I’m just over Mass completely at this point.
-
Submitted my verification a week ago tomorrow. Filed 2/6 and accepted same day. Received correspondence 2/28 for social security cards for me and my son. The same son I’ve claimed for over 11 years. I sent all info 3/2. Amount is still green with no update. Mass sucks so hard.
-
FINALLY! Black zero! This was absolutely ridiculous! DDD of the 12. Good luck guys. Thank God they didn’t take the full 4 to 6 weeks after I submitted verification!
-
I sent all requested documents via the online submissions tab, and still nothing has updated after 3 days. It’s just annoying at this point. 😑
-
Same here DDD 3/12
-
Good news everybody checked this morning and finally green status changed to black sent verification on 3/1 processed 3/5 ddd Tuesday 3/12 bout time so if u sent everything u should have the same ddd good lick every it took over a month
-
@Jessie
They update overnight. -
Stillllllll waiting, I submitted all requested documentation. Confirmed via message they do not need any additional documents at this time 3 days ago… still green, no alerts, no letters, WMR status still says letter mailed 2/28/2019
Does anyone know when Mass Tax Connect updates
-
no one in MA is getting refunds apparently… Submitted requested documents, it says they received them but the refund status is still saying they are requesting additional documents… ugh!
-
Submitted documents 3/1, accepted on 3/5, says its processed. Still green no new letters or info. Does it really take 4-6 weeks to get money?
-
Submitted documents 3/1, accepted 3/5, says processed under submitted documents. Still green no new letters or info. Does is really take another 4-6 weeks?
-
Chat room is pretty quiet. Hope everyone is getting there returns.
-
Got a document request. Submitted said documents, they have been received and are processing, but the refund status on MA Tax Connect still says they are requesting documents and I will receive a letter. That means that they haven’t updated the status, which I thought updated daily. Hmmm… the waiting begins again!
-
Under submissions
-
Jessie
Where do you see if the documents are processed? -
1/28 filed
2/27 Selected to Access Letter Mailed
3/1 I submitted all requested documents
3/6 All documents say “processed”REFUND AMOUNT STILL GREEN, NOT RELEASED
NO NEW NOTIFICATION -
Got a letter saying they need copies of ss cards and a copy of the 1099 … took them 6 weeks to decide that?!
-
I think there was another security breach and Mass isn’t telling us!
-
Filed January 28 Federal Approved and refunded February 27. Mass “Selected to Assess” letter Feb 1 submitted all documents electronically on MassTaxConnect March 1 now start the wait again.
-
Got the correspondence email this morning. Grrrrr
-
STILL NOTHING HERE AND NO EMAIL OR LETTER….UGGH
-
So, per my previous post, I have now submitted ALL the docs they asked for…in response they sent a message saying “Once the status of the submission changes to Received, please allow 4-6 weeks for review. Your documents will be reviewed in the order in which they were received.” Like I said, this is a huge attempt to stall refunds! This is BS!
-
Did everyones letter of verification make u send in w2 and ss cards?
-
Just got an email this morning need to send ss cards in wtf
-
I am BULLSHIT! I got a letter this morning asking for verification for the same husband and three kids I’ve been claiming for, at least, the last 8 years! We’ve lived at this same address for three tax cycles! AND we all have some form of mass health for health insurance! Do they REALLY need ANOTHER copy of everyone’s social security card!?! Am I really supposed to believe that it took EXACTLY 30 days to determine they “needed” this info that is already on file with the state of Massachusetts?!?! I am going to submit the docs on MassTax Connect TODAY but I know this is a huge effort to stall paying residents their tax refunds! Incredulous!
-
Got an email this morning saying I have a correspondence that’s being mailed. I read it online and I’m being fukn audited. Wtf man!!!
-
This is an update for ppl who have not received their state I waited 6 weeks for mtc to tell me Im going through a verification process for me and my kids social and my address Massacgusetts is on some bullshit had tge same kids for years and tge only thing that changed was my address which corresponded with my W2s y it take 6 weeks to get a notice for that already got federsl 2/22 thus is crazy this year with MA so ppl start expecting a correspondence notice n I could view it on website
-
@RICK SAME WITH ME!! ANNOYING. I CALLED YESTERDAY AND THEY SAID IT WAS STILL PROCESSING AND WITHIN THE 6 WEEK TIME FRAME. TO GIVE IT MORE TIME. IM NOT IN DESPERATE NEED, JUST GOING ON VACATION AND WOULD LIKE THE EXTRA CASH
-
I got my federal refund and still no state from massachusetts and mine was excepted on the 29 of January and i have talked to alot of people and they have recieved there taxes from mass where is mine this is ridiculous
-
MA return STILL processing!! Why is it taking so long? I ha e never know MA to take this long. I called them the other day and they told me it was still processing. What’s the delay?
-
@Tee WTF BRO lol this money isn’t going to help you go somewhere else with all that bs nobody’s going to send you money either sorry don’t believe it manipulating addict is what I see. Good try though
-
Still no update!! Return received 1/29 wth
-
WHERE CAN YOU FIND YOUR CYCLE CODE
-
MASS WMR SAYS PROCESSING SINCE 01/29/19-STILL….CALLED AND THEY SAID STILL PROCESSING :(
-
Still nothing from Ma 😡
-
MA refunds are taking FOREVER this year!!!
-
Still nothing this morning! 😞 Status is STILL “processing” for MA refund.
-
You’re the best thank you!!
-
Thank you tigerlili!!!! I have Turbotax prepaid,card w ddd 27th I do I saw people giving routing,numbers? Mine,is 124 303 120 if you,coukd tell,me,anything i,would greatly appreciate it,thank you,so,much
!!!!— -
Something strange at DOR. I finally broke down and called them today. They claimed my tax return wasn’t accepted until Feb. 2nd. However, on their refund status website, the DOR says my return was accepted on January 17th. Someone messed up somewhere. The guy I spoke with said it could take up to another two weeks before I see my refund! If my return was accepted on 1/17, then I am on week 6 and it’s still “processing.” Massachusetts is taking a very long time this year. I just wanted to let you all know that they may be taking a couple of additional weeks! I have no idea why I am receiving two different dates for my return acceptance. I think it’s a way of them making an excuse for an extra few weeks before they release a refund.
-
Mass Tax Connect still Green, no letters, no correspondence. I have EIC & Child Tax the last 3 years I have been audited by state and each time they find no error. It’s comical and annoying !
-
No update been green for 4 weeks
-
Nope no update yet, it’s ridiculous
-
Has anyone received their MA refund yet? Mine has been “processing” since late January. No updates since it changed to the processing status. It’s now going on 6 weeks and still no new update. Anyone else experiencing this?
-
Does anyone know if when you have a federal debt and they take your federal refund, does the same happen with a state refund? When I checked my federal this morning, I got a DDD if 2/27, but also tax topic 203 that means there is an offset. Called the offset number and it was confirmed. Sadly. But will they also seize my state refund as well?
-
So checked irs2go this morning and i have a date for the 27th so hopfully in the nxt couple days i will have my federal. Hope yall get yours soon. I went in the 10th or this month an was accepted the 11th.
-
No update for state..got 2/27 ddd for federal today, prolly going to get federal before state again
-
By the way, I’ve been green for WEEKS!
-
This is ridiculous! I’m a PATHer AND I filed after the IRS opened up and I STILL received my Federal a week ago but I’m waiting on State! I have not moved, I have not changed bank info…nothing is new or different! It’s funny cause yesterday we got our auto excise bills, though!
-
Well got my federal this morning still green for state rep tells me 4-6 weeks acceted 2/1 he said they are taking alot if securiry measures this year for ppl who switch account ir moved I moved but my tax firms is my current addressed but he said I may get a papee check now jus wondering how long tgat would b no letters or notifications on mtc but at least I got my federal back
-
@Leem last year my ddd date was 2/26 and I got it 2/22 so here’s to hoping! I wonder if state is waiting for federal to go out before they do…
-
@Lyndsay and I’m almost certain I’ll have my federal tomorrow or Monday. My DDD for federal is 2-27 but I always get it in my credit union account 3-4 days earlier than the DDD. This will be the first time ever that I get federal before state. Go figure!! Smh.
-
Nothing for me yet either, wrote them and they were just like it can take up to 6 weeks…ridiculous
-
state taxes are taking forever this year!!
-
Still no update. People who filed early and did not receive refunds yet are probably going to wsit the full 6 weeks. This hsppened to me last year.
-
No update on Mass again 😡
-
Anyone with a fed ddd of 2/22 got anything yet
-
@Leem exactly!! They told me the same thing, nothing is wrong… they why is it still processing, meanwhile people had to verify so something WAS wrong and they got it!! I am still hoping for maybe tomorrow but idk at this point
-
@Lyndsay I was really hoping to have my money this morning as well. I called and they said nothing is wrong, it’s just processing. Meanwhile I’m like if nothing is wrong give me my damn money!! Lol. Mind you it was received on 1/29 and it was adjusted on 2/8. What else do they need??!!
-
Why did people who have to verify get theirs before people who didn’t but they were accepted after? This is making no sense!
-
Any updates? My transcript says 2-25 but the last two years it’s come early.
-
Anybody,want to,venmo me a loan,for 150$ lol I’ll pay 200$ when,my fed comes,lmao
-
This so anoying. H&r block want there money so bad they lie out there teeth and saying people are getting federal in a week. Like tf. Nvr going back there again.
-
No change here either. Received 1/30 accepted 2/2. I sent them a message yesterday and they just said it’s processing.
@lm1278 the cycle number and transcripts are for federal taxes.
@leem I was hoping to wake up to it today but no such luck. Checked my transcripts for 846 code but not there as of about an hour ago but maybe mid-day??
-
No change here either
Received 1/29
Accepted 2/2So frustrating
-
Ya I can’t belive I haven’t updated. Might send them another message today, it’s gonna be 4 weeks in 6 days! This is just ridiculous
-
No change here
Received 1/17
Accepted 2/1 -
I have the same message but 2/1 as received date. Mass has never taken this long
-
Mine says same thing but received jan 30th
-
I have had this same message for weeks when I try to check the status of my state refund:
“Your return was received on 17-Jan-2019 and is being processed. Please allow four to six weeks for processing, if you filed your return electronically. If you mailed your return please allow eight to ten weeks for processing.”
There is no DDD, nothing for weeks. I have read on this forum that some people have a cycle number? What is that? Also mentioning a tax transcript?
Has anyone else had this same status for this long?
-
So for anyone who has a NetSpend card. I woke up yesterday Tuesday with my amount black and a DDD for 2/21 well this morning my Mass & Federal were both on my account and I had a 2/22 DDD for federal. I went thru Liberty Tax and had fees. Just so you know if you have NetSpend with a DDD of 2/21 for MAss u will have it today.
-
@Deacon go to irs.gov and click on get my tax record. Create an account and you can get them online. If you can’t create an account you can have your transcripts mailed.
-
Still no update for me. Filed 1/24
-
@Lyndsay mine do have a date of 2-25 also. I’m hopeful that it comes this week!! I checked my transcripts from last year and had a date of 2-26 and got the deposit on 2-22. So you may be right!!! Fingers crossed! I’m still sick of waiting tho. This is ridiculous now. I was audited the year before last and even tho the cycle date was 3-16 I didn’t get that refund until the end of June. 🙄🤦🏾♀️
-
@lyndsay
How do you get your transcripts? -
@Leem do your transcripts have a date on them? Mine say 2-25-19 last year it said 2-26-19 and got them the thursday before so I am hoping tomorrow maybe. Same boat as you with state. No need to verify and they say it’s processing I need to give it time. UGH! On WMR for Federal I still have the stupid generic processing message so got my transcripts today
-
Now I am annoyed!! I feel like I have been so damn patient, and STILL no movement on my state refund. My return was received on 1/29. I called this morning, they said i do not need to ID Verify, and I do not owe any money to the state, so WTF is taking so long for me to get a DDD?! Ugh. It’s bad enough that I am a PATHER according to my federal return, and lost the path message and have the stupid generic processing message now. My transcripts have been the exact same for three weeks now. ANNOYED!!!
-
Finally got mine…till next year everyone.
Filed 1/22
Accepted 1/30
Verified on 6th but didn’t receive letter till 12th.
Deposit today -
@Samanthafromma I have no update either. I wrote to them asking if I had to verify because I did last year and they said no so idk what is taking so long!
-
@Brandon April 15 is the last day to file your return.. there should be another date on your transcript. It’s towards the top right after your address
-
O was sent an email this morning stating I had a correspondence letter sent in the mail and it will arrive shortly does anybody have an idea of what that could be
-
No change
-
I’m starting to get pist now…still no update for either refund…my state sent me this message on the 12th:
Received: Tuesday, Feb 12, 2019 10:52:41 AM
Subject: Re: RefundDear Taxpayer,
Your return is still in the final stage of processing. You will either receive your refund or a letter if more information is needed in the next week to ten days.
So if I don’t have an update by Friday I’m messaging/calling them back
-
10th & 15th*
-
I had my transcripts mailed,on the 105th the only other date is April 155th that has to be old right lol
-
@Mary Jane thank you!
-
@ Brandon
My cycle is 20190605 and my direct deposit date is 2-25. Right after my cycle code it says that date. Your number is lower than mine so maybe you get yours before me. Hope that helps -
Finally found out my cycle code it’s 20190505 what does that tell me???
-
I have a ddd of 2/21 for state refund and it just hit my chime-bancorp card. They are coming!!!!!

Cs82
I didn’t show that a letter was mailed to me either on my account. I received it 2/14 to ID verify. So I did and I just woke up to a 2/21 Direct deposit date.
-
Still no update for me, State is still green and federal just says being processed.
-
I filed 2/1 got accepted 2/4 had to jump through hoops to do the verification and finally it says my check was mailed today. Anyone know how long it might take with the mail? Also my federal changed to refund approved and be sent 2/22, I have child tax credits. Anyone already get there federal on an american express serve card?
-
Still the same
-
I haven’t updated on either also 😔
-
Dam I still didn’t update for state or federal, this is just bs
-
Finally after I’d verifying on Thursday today I got a ddd for 2/21.
-
I got an update and letter saying I owe RCC. I can’t tell if they took my whole refund. My amount is black 0.00 no ddd. It says still being processed. I’m so confused.

-
My bank just informed me that my money is there Tuesday morning… and that they can see the deposit a week in advance bc they have to authorize payment to be sent
-
@Deacon you have to log into massconnect and it will show your refund amount. When it turns black it’s been done
-
@dee
Where do u see the colers? -
Still green here. Maybe Tuesday.
-
So under mine it says the same thing that its being processed but thats all the info. Theres no date no bars. Where do u get that info?
-
@sam
On your Federal wmr it says your refund is being processed? After the bars left and said a refund date will be provided when available?
My state is being issued they sent it DD after i did my id verify..
Im just confused with my Federal now this is the first it s changed since i filed… does it show u a refund date on wmr?
-
@Ash
My fed was like that wed but I updated today to refund is being processed. I don’t think it means anything, think we’ll see out fed refund beginning of week..the state I don’t know what’s going on with that
-
Does anybody know what it means when you lose your bars on the WMR and it States your return is still being processed a refund date will be provided when available means?
I was on one bar with tt152 since 1/28 and today i seen the message above
-

Filed 2/6
Updated 2/11 to “check being sent out 2/12”
Received check today 2/16 -
This is anoying. Does anyone know how long it took for them after the statues said its being processed. Thats all it says when i log in lol
-
Sam you are right about state. I was talking about fed my bad. I hope i see some movements on my fed.
-
My refund is being sent by check on the 19th but i requested direct deposit. Does any one know why?
-
@Deacon
The state doesn’t hold for that though. A lot have already got there’s, we should at least have an update
-
Ya I don’t know how to do the transcript thing so not sure if I have a ddd for federal but have a good feeling, I have fees getting taken out of my federal so won’t see it until Tuesday at least anyways. That’s why I was hoping to get state to hold me over but guess not
-
Nicole its most likely because u claimed children or the low income? They wont realese it till the middle of feb so u should be getting it soon. Lol i did mine last sunday an i cnt even get into there website lol
-
My transcripts says 2/25 for federal. Still no date for state. They’re so quick to take your money and then take forever to give it back!
-
This is driving me crazy!!! I filed on 1/25 It was approved the day they started accepting returns. I haven’t received anything in the No idea what is going on. its pissing me off though I can tell you that!!
-
@lydia where was it sent to and from? If you don’t mind me asking I have the same date of it being sent. And I’m only 10 mins away from when they are being sent and still have not received it
-
Good morning, just updating… Check updated to sent 2/12 … Was actually sent 2/14 just got it today
-
@sam
I looked at my federal transcripts and it shows my refund day 2/22. But still shows processing on wmr -
Verified on Tuesday. On Thursday it said ddd 2/19. No deposit as of this morning so I guess it will be on the exact day. Doubtful that there will be an dd on Sunday or Monday.
Just wanted to update everyone.
-
Ya no update for me either..my federal lost its bars Thur morning and said still processing and refund amount was gone, this morning at least my refund amount is there and says your refund is processing, at this rate prolly get the federal first again like last year
-
@sam
No. Same amount -
Still green no refund yet don’t know why this year is taking so long .

Filed 2/1
Accepted 2/2
Message 2/12
Submitted 2/14
Awaiting approval -
-
I sent my ID info in because I didn’t have patience to wait for my letter. I sent it in on Wednesday and they sent me a message saying my refund has been approved please wait 7-10 business day for refund. I hope it updates tonight just so I have an exact DDD.
-
I messaged them, “ Does Mass Tax connect update over the weekends? Like with returns and direct deposit dates?“
And their reply was:
Dear Taxpayer,
Thank you for your inquiry to the Massachusetts Department of Revenue, please see our response below:
It does update, but your best bet is to reference the “Where’s My Refund” link on the MassTaxConnect home page to track your refund. Typically it can take 4-6 weeks for a refund to be issued on an E-filed return.
Please let us know if we can be of any further assistance. If you have additional questions, please provide a telephone number where we may contact you.
Thank you for using MassTaxConnect
Idk if they actually do update but they said they do…for our sake I hope they do and don’t have to wait until Tuesday to get a ddd and then couple more days to get the deposit
-
I just dont understand how i still dont have an update and im still processing!!! I am like actually really in need of this money seeing i dont start my new job til march 3rd….this really sucks!!
-
Does anyone know if the site updates on weekends also or is it just week days?
-
Finally recieved my check in the mail that was mailed the 8th until next year
-
Still Green.
-
@sam
Still no movement for me. Filed 1/24. Been green since 2/1
-
Anyone waiting for a ddd update today? Sucks cause now won’t update until Tuesday…this is really ridiculous
-
I live in Pittsfield MA and my letter came yesterday however I got a DDD the next day after I verified my identity
-
@Dee
@KateI’m in Lowell so pretty far away from springfield too
-
My check arrived today! Issued on Feb 11th I live on South Shore.
-
Where is everyone seeing that it says when it will be dd or a check mailed?
-
I hope it’s from Springfield cuz I’m only a half hr away my mail dont come until 430 though
-
@laura sorry for asking but where in mass are you located so we no roughly how much longer we would have to wait in turns of distance.
-
So there is hope!! Im in Taunton which is pretty far away from springfield 😳 but this may be the best news ever !
-
My check came today issued on the 8th from Springfield
-
How long after you verified with the pin number did you get a DDD? I seen some say two days after but some are saying still no update after 3 days so just curious!
-
So my status says mailed check out on the 8th and I still have not gotten a thing and the mail just came and nothing !
-
Yes Springfield
-
Yes from Springfield
-
Everyone that received their checks, where were they mailed from? I’m hoping Springfield is true cause that’s just a town over from me
-
They got my ID info because I sent it to them.I also sent the pin the next day. The girl I spoke to on Wednesday said she got everything and was giving it to her supervisor for release. No change. So I called just now. Was told it had to go through the audit dept because that’s who sent out the letter. Now its 7-10 more days 🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬
-
Informed delivery shows my state check today that was issued 2/8 if anyone else has this date.
-
Didn’t get i.d. verify letter yesterday so I uploaded documents to yesterday afternoon. Got a message saying they reviewed my documents and it’s processing. Checked this morning no update Massachusetts where’s my refund still same message saying additional information is requires. I’m beyond pissed. If they can’t pay me back for last years taxes they should cease taking taxes out of my check until I’m paid back 🤬
-
@Ash does your account say the check was mailed today? Mine says it is being mailed on the 19th which I know wont happen because its a holiday
-
Did anyone get there deposit early on one of the cards where your payroll comes early?
-
@Christie yours should be in the mail today
-
Was mailed from Springfield ma and it dosent say when it was sent
-
No update for me once again..this is ridiculous
-
Informed delivery shows a BEAUTIFUL image…..MY CHECK! Checks mailed 2/8 and 2/11 have finally arrived!!!
-
What day Is the envelope post dated for? Im curious if they actually went out on the 8th. Also, where does it show it was mailed from? Im still waitimg on mine 😣
-
Check that we’re mailed on 2/8 are coming the mail today!
-
My amount went from green to black 0.00 balance they issued my check seen it under my refunds.. should be here any day
-
@tamara
Right this was bs tho…. anyways glad that’s over not changing banks again next year
-
Masstaxconnect says my dd was deposited 2/20/19 give it 3-5 days
-
Still green. No change. Maybe tomorrow.
-
Got a DD for the 20th. Was shocked after all that I had to go through with the letter, that it updated next day!
-
@Ed
I got my dd 2/11 & it was over $400.
Filed 1/28
Accepted 2/2
2/8 i think I got my DDD of 2/11 -
Has ANYONE received their check?? How long did it take to receive?? Where are they mailing from, China?!?!?! This is ridoculous!
-
I’m thinking now that the pin numbers are no longer valid for anyone that sent them documents for the i.d. verify. It could actually be a good sign. More like no longer needed
-
I called and they also told me 4-6 weeks from the 1st not when it was received which mine was received on yhe 24th
-
Has anyone recieved a check yet
-
So on my masstax account it doesn’t say anything about a letter was mailed out but to my surprise I received a letter in the mail today saying to verify my ID with the verification code etc so I just did all that so now my return will be finished and hopefully I get a DDD soon. How long after you did the verification did it take to get a DDD
-
@cs82: I discovered that they update now at 6am daily
-
Ok thank you it worked.for me
-
Does massconnect update only overnight or anytime during the day?
-
@jamie: go to the mass tax connect home page. It’s right underneath where you would sign in
-
Right … I’m good with this… they can keep it I make more then that 615 in a week anyways it’s just the point of this verification stuff is ridiculous
-
Were do you go to submit the pin. I cant find the link
-
@Ash: I feel you
-
After 30 minutes on the phone, they manually verified me. It better be right now. This has been a ridiculous process. Oh and the letter they mailed on the “6th” wasn’t even postmarked till the 12th
-
So my balance on mass tax connect is green which is my refund amount. It was received on Jan 17 accepted 2/1 still processing it says 4-6 weeks.. anyone know if it’s 4-6 weeks from received or accepted???
-
@happytaxseason7
Ughggg I don’t even care anymore I did everything so it’s whatever I’m done
-
@ash: same exact bs line they gave me. My mail hasn’t even come yet. If my letter even shows up today I’m not even gonna bother with it lol
-
I called and I bugged on them like what’s up are you sending my refund or not bc now the pin is not valid and I sent attachments proof I’m me…
You stated it was just now being processed this morning and will take 7-10 days so is it coming or nah..
He said it’s on the way my identity was verified 7-10 days is the latest I’ll receive it
God uggghh
-
My pin says no longer valid smh
-
I got my letter lmao
-
@Tamara forest: call them, that’s just some nonsense right there smh
-
I got my letter today and now it’s saying the pin is no longer valid…OMG
-
I did the same thing with the attachments. I honestly don’t think it will take that long. It’s supposedly the exact same process as getting the letter in the mail and i.d. verifying with pin. The only thing that sucks is it’s already Thursday and we have the weekend and the holiday Monday. That is the inmy thing that will hold it up. I have a feeling this will be the first time in 20 years that I’ll receive my federal before state. 🤔
-
Same for me I did my attachments in the message I sent today they said it will take 7-10 days for my refund
-
I always get my check from work a day or atleast 20 hours before all my coworkers, with my turbo prepaid card. My state taxs wasnt deposited until the day of the direct deposit date. I turned black on 2/12, with a ddd of 2/14. I got my deposit around 5am today which is 2/14 so it seems like it isnt deposited until the ddd even if they released it early. So if you get a ddd today for the 19th i doubt you will get it before then maybe you will because they might release there hold on friday you might get it saturday or sunday if your bank processes electronic deposits automatically. I hope i can help people, as i said before it seems the more your refund the longer they take to process it. My uncle got 40 buck refund and filed on the 8th, and had a deposit on the 13th. So yeah i dont know anyone with a big deposit got there refund like i said i got mine today and it was just below 300.
-
Still no check for me today
-
Still Green no DDD.
Maybe tomorrow.
@Maegan
“Where are you guys seeing red and green and black for MA state taxes. When I put in my info into check my refund it just says still processing. Was accepted 2/4 anyone know if path is delaying state?”If you make and account on Mass Tax Connect you can see that info. It’s like using WMR only you can see previous years and letters DOR has sent you. Path Act has no effect on state taxes.
Hope I helped.
-
Sooooo, after I faxed all my info yesterday I got the pin letter in the mail today. I didnt see any change this morning from me verifying my identity yesterday.I put the pin in anyways. So it says now that they can “start processing “. 🤔 I wonder if I have to wait weeks now for my dd
-
Hey All,
For anyone who had to verify how so after it was verified did you receive a ddd? -
I verified on Tuesday around noon. This morning it says ddd 2/19.
-
I just recieved a message from masstaxconnect and they stated they reviewed my attachments and I’m now being processed please allow 7-10 days for deposit
-
So I just got through to IRS and the lady told me that pathers will start processing on the 15th and deposits will start as early as the 275th… Hopefully this isn’t the case but dammit think it might be hurry up!!!!!!!
-
Where do i find informed delivery
-
Where are you guys seeing red and green and black for MA state taxes. When I put in my info into check my refund it just says still processing. Was accepted 2/4 anyone know if path is delaying state?
-
@Jamie I don’t see it in my informed delivery
-
Yeah I figured I was hoping lol. Dose anyone that has a check that was mailed on the 8th see it in thier informed delivery?
-
@jamie
Usually the ones that don’t have images are advertisements/junk mail -
Mine says it was deposited today but I received nothing..
-
Doss anyone that’s is getting a check that was mailed on the 8th have a mail piece that’s not showing up in their informed delivery. I’m hoping it’s the check.
-
For anyone waiting on a ID verify letter today in my informed delivery there is a letter from the DOR. They said it was mailed on the 6th but it was postmarked on the 12th. Here’s to hoping it’s the ID letter.
-
Anyone see a check in thier informed delivery
-
Still says processing no update….
-
It looks like the letter was sent on the 12th not the 6th
-
So my brother just got his letter that was sent on the 6th of February it came from Boston mass
-
So my brother just got his letter that was sent on the 6th of February
-
I was issued a check on Feb 11th and my refund was x,xxx$ Still have not received it but it was just issued on the 11th. Hope everyone gets deposits and checks soon!
-
Well my informed delivery says I have one piece of mail coming today and they dont have an image for it…..
-
A lot of us that filed 1/28 are still waiting, wierd…I haven’t updated yet, it is larger and they did adjust it and increased it but come on, obviously if they adjusted it they looked at it, don’t know why they are still holding onto it
-
@ed
I know mine has been caught in their I’d verify game for a week now and their only response is wait longer…. “it could take up to 10 days to reach you” they may have literally hired a snail to deliver this letter to me. But, mine is above 400
-
Filed 1/28
Accepted 1/28
Updated to green 2/2
Turned 0 aka black 2/12 for a DDD of 2/14
Deposited at 4AM this morning into a greendot prepaid. Hope i help someone, i found out from a birdy that they are doing refunds based on amount, so if anyone that mafe more then 400 state that got theres before today, please say something to crush my thought process. -
I will. Check my informed delivery at 7:30
-
Got me deposit at 4:00 am
-
@christie I’m supposed to be receiving a check that says was issued on the 8th and from a previous post someone said they called and was told the checks were coming from Springfield
-
Same for me too!! We don’t have any offsets either. I just don’t get it. We filed on 1/28 it was accepted 2/1 and it’s still processing. Meanwhile, my good friend filed last week and already has her state back
-
@mike
Sameeee … so aggravating! -
State been accepted since 1/28 but still says processing smh everyone else in my household filed after me and has received their state
E -
I know I sound like a broken record, buuuuut. Has anyone received their check yet??? If so, where was it mailed from?? This is ridiculous!!!
-
To answer a few questions….1) being a Pather for Federal Returns does NOT affect state. I am a Pather and recieved my state refund last week.
2) if they issued you a check but you were expecting a DD, it is a preventative measure to stop ID theft. Happens when you change some information ( bank or account number for deposit versus previous years requested account information, etc). My personal experience with checks is even though WMR shows issued Friday, it doesnt mean they mailed on Friday. They likely printed on Friday and were placed in mail on Monday. You should definitely expect them by tomorrow or Friday the latest. If not by Friday, call them.
-
@teana my check was mailed 2/8 still waiting
-
I’m really wondering if this is a way to delay some of the bigger refunds a few weeks. When I call or message I am told to
Wait longer while others are getting a more favorable response. -
@Missy so you’re a pather and got your refund?
-
At this point I’m done with the state and federal I’m gonna continue to work… and when it comes it comes I’m giving myself a headache trying to prove I’m me..
-
They sent that message as a reply in my inbox on masstaxconnect
-
@Ash where are you seeing this message I just sent all my documents and they said 10-14 days for me
-
Anyone get any dd dates yet? Or anyone with a 2/14, get a deposit?
-
How is it that they sent all these letters out on the 6th and nobody has recieved them…
-
No letter for me either today… they didn’t send one lol a joke
This is why I called and asked them to view my attachments bc this is bs
-
no letter today….Today was the 5th business day, sent out the 6th. Now they say to wait till friday. They didn’t send any damn letter
-
This is terrible. I messaged them in tax connect and just got a generic response to allow an addtional 3-5 business days for the letter to reach me. No where does it say about what the letter but where it’s not on tax connect as a letter I’ve been sent and I did use a different bank account that it is id verify. But, I don’t know.
-
When you verify it I got the response,
Dear Taxpayer,
Thank you for your inquiry to the Massachusetts department of revenue. As the examiner had indicated please allow 1 to 2 business days for a proper review and response. Please keep in mind that once the return is verified there will be an additional processing time frame for any refunds, it may take 3 to 5 business days.
please let us know if we can be of any further assistance
thank you for using mass tax connect
Thats after i spoke with the lady on the phone and she seen my attachments i sent proving it was me. I told her i still didnt recieve my letter.
-
@Jen
We’re you asked to verify?
And, They said it takes the 1-2 days to update after you are verified . Then 3-5 days after to deposit refund., that’s what someone posted earlier -
I submitted my verification an mass tax connect today
It says my confirmation # submission date and processed date and time, does that mean that it’s already processed and how long will it be before I’m updated and refund issued
-
@Jen
Every night they update or can update
@Cs82
It can say something on masstaxconnect or when you do WMR I think it would say it -
Has anyone gotten a check that was mailed 2/8/19
-
What days does Massachusetts state update on mass tax connect?
-
How do you know your getting a letter ? Does it say something on massconnect ?
-
So angry right now the pin they gave me yesterday is not working I do not understand and again no letter in the mail
-
As for my federal I am still processing… my transcripts are blank.. and after 15th is when I will start checking this because they can’t do anything until after that for me.. EiC and CTC
-
I also just got a message from masstaxconnect..
They said it takes the 1-2 days to update after you are verified . Then 3-5 days after to deposit refund.
Ughhhh 🤦🏾♀️
-
I called IRS and asked for my transcripts to be faxed and I gave them the fax number from the app.
-
I filed 1/19 massachusetts received it 1/28 got accepted 2/1 Got my money deposited 2/11
-
@jamie hopefully we’ll start to see them tomorrow then it shouldn’t take that long
-
So I just called and they said the people that were in thier test batch are getting checks she also said it was mailed on the 8th from Springfield
-
So I’m confused are we seeing our federal tomorrow?
-
Good morning I am still green no dad yet. How do you know if they are sending letters to you? I have multiple people file the day before me and they have all been mailed checks or got dad. Should I be worried ? Thank for help
-
I am so frustrated I want on federal transcripts online but I dont have a credit card and my student loan account number is not working ughhhh
-
@Ash
Your federal transcripts? How? -
Thanks guys! I faxed it through faxburner, and apparently each operator has their own fax number, so I called back and she said she got everything and she would send it on to the supervisor for release. I dont think I would have ever gotten that letter. At this point it was a good idea to call.
-
@Michelle
i faxed mine in last year using a fax app. I used fox fax or something like that. No matter what app I believe the app itself gives you a notification if the fax made it to it’s destination.I was “Mailed” a letter 3 years in a row. Never received one.
-
Mine is coming to pittsfield
@ Michelle
Fax burner is great i recieved my transcripts this year and last year
-
I was mailed a letter,supposedly on the 6th. Still haven’t gotten it.I called and the lady gave me a number to fax my info to. I dont have a fax machine,so I downloaded faxburner on my phone and sent it through there. Has anyone else used this app and how did it work for you?
-
Maybe, someone told me they were told that because their amount was adjusted it’s going to take a little longer to process…my amount was also adjusted but they increased it…If I had a date I’d feel a lot better, sooner the better lol…I think I’ll have federal in like a week so would be nice to have this to hold me over
-
@Laura same here but its coming to north Adam’s for me. I think once we start seeing people get thier checks everyone will. Has anyone called and asked about the checks that were mailed on the 8th?
-
@maryjane
If you log on to masstaxconnect it says send message, and below where you type it says add attachments
-
My ID* not is sorry
-
Good morning! I was on the masstax website but I didn’t see anything that allows me to send them my is and all that. I don’t where I can attached a photo. Can anyone help me please and ty
-
@Jamie The 8th and its coming to Lowell
-
Yes they verified my account with the attachments I sent and stated it takes 48 hrs to update and look out for a message from masstaxconnect
-
@ash
Are you saying that you see somewhere it’s verified or it should be?
-
@Laura when did they say they sent it
-
I spoke to a lady young named Noel and she said the fact that I went above and beyond sending the attachments of proof of ID she was going to speak to her supervisor and they said I should be good in 48 hours to watch masstaxconnect for update my identity is now verified…
-
Well again mail came and no check
-
Hi All
Good news, I have been waiting for my letter. No letter 7 days… so I sent masstaxconnect a message with attachments OF… ID, birth certificate, ssi card, my insurance card… and I said this is me here is all my information… so I called and said I have no letter … I sent you all a message with all forms of ID proving it’s me… and the supervisor approved my verification.. they said I just be could within 48 hours watch for a message on masstaxconnect…
So if y’all still waiting for that letter … if your comfortable send attachments and call..
-
@Sam
Im almost the same in for as you except accepted 1/26. I just wrote to them today to get some answers… I’ll let you know if they respond. My refund amount on MTC is also $1 lower than expected so not sure if that’s the hold up????? -
I am not sure how you guys are getting your pins from calling. This is my 3rd time calling and they won’t give me my pin to verify
-
I want to try to call to see if I can get my pin but I know they’ll tell me they can’t do that like they did last time
-
Filed 2/7 accepted 2/8 sent a check today… I guess with the IRS the early bird doesn’t get the worm
-
So is there anybody that have got any mail from dor (check/letter)
-
@Lori the man I spoked to yesterday gave me my pin too but said to go to my tax connect account and send it through there along with my license social security card and a bill to prove it was me so I am super confused but thank you for your help
-
I called the phone number and the woman gave me the information for the verification (the pin). The. I went online and entered the information that I just posted below. Good luck.
-
@Lori thank you!!!!
-
Yes they do, I get a check once a month in mail and they scan it
-
@Rosa, go to the MassTacConnect (https://mtc.dor.state.ma.us/mtc/). Under quick links, in bold, it’s says refund verification. Click on that and then fill in the information it’s asks for.
It asks for your last name (I believe in all caps), the pin they gave you, the pin they gave you again, then it asks if you or someone else filed your taxes for you. Once you say yes to this, it asks for you refund amount. Then you hit suibnit at the bottom.
-
Would informed delivery scan checks
-
Anyone update today?? I’m still in green, still processing…filed 1/28, accepted 2/1…no letters or anything
-
@Lori so you just call that number and enter your info?
-
Sorry, I didn’t see the message for the phone number I called. It’s (617) 887-6367.
-
@Lori I have my pin but I am confused on exactly what I need to do
-
@ Lori I am sorry I dont understand what did you have to do did you call a number or did you do it online?
-
Hoping to get the letter they sent on the 6th today. We didn’t get mail yesterday due to the storm. We live on a huge hill!
-
Rosa,
I did the verification. It asked for my lady name (all caps), my verification pin (twice) and the amount of my refund. My social security too I think.
The process worked and the message it gives is that they will notify Mass that my refund has been verified.
Hope this helps.
-
still no letter and they said it was mailed on the 4th. I called yesterday and the man I spoke to gave me the info I needed to do my verification but I have not done it yet I am worried it wont be right and hold up things even more but I really find it hard that i still dont have this letter
@Lori did you do your verification, was it a pin and a picture of your licencse social security card and bill cause that is what he told me
-
I changed my bank ingo so they sent me a check on the 8th and still haven’t gotten it. They also sent my brother a letter on the 6th and he still hasn’t gotten it.
-
I just looked at my informed delivery and I have mail coming, you might not have mail today but doesn’t mean they only send flyers on Wednesday’s
-
Hmmm I usually just get files and I am looking on informed delivery and thier is no mail…..
-
I get regular mail on Wednesday’s
-
@Gary
I messaged them yesterday and asked what was going on and they told me, “Your return is still in the final stage of processing. You will either receive your refund or a letter if more information is needed in the next week to ten days.” My amount is still in green and no update, going to check at 8 but don’t think it’s going to change, I just want an update. It used to be so fast. I filed 1/28 and accepted 2/1 and hasn’t changed since 2/1
-
Does anyone get mail on wed or is it usually just fliers?
-
Filed 1/17 accepted 2/1 still no DDD. I have no child credits or nothing it is a standard return. This happened last year and I had to wait until March. I am thinking for those of us that has been waiting its because they are holding them until march.
-
Still Green here since (2/11) No DDD on WMR.
-
When was yours mailed. Mine was mailed yesterday. Hopefully get it by end of week
-
Has anyone received their refund check yet?? How long did it take to receive? Also, where was the check mailed from?? Tax season has always gone so smooth for me, this year state mailed instead of depositing because i used my savings rather than checking , and federal is being offset due to a student loan from 11 years ago (I know that’s my own fault). 😣😣
-
These texts you guys are getting, are they for federal? Are you pathers?
-
Refundsoon
No shit that’s awesome when did you get that update -
I had to I.D verify 3 years in a row. Every year Mass Dor tols me a letter was sent. IN 3 YEARS I NEVER RECEIVED A LETTER. I always had to call after not getting a refund after 8 weeks to get an answer.
-
Okay great to know ! I’m hopping soon , I know last year I got it before they sent the DDD
-
Had to I.D verify 3 years in a row. I think this might be the first year i get my refund before April.
Filed and accepted 2/8.
MTC updated to a green refund amount. Hopefully that means I will not have to I.D verify again.
Also did my Aunts Taxes 2/6 She got a DDD of 2/12. -
If you have fees taken out you’ll only get it like a day or so before your ddd if you have Netspend…last year I had fees taken out and my ddd was the 22nd I believe and I got it on the 20th
-
@Ash
People with Netspend and similar cards will start seeing deposits the 16th and then they’ll just start spitting them out..a lot of people got it on the 16th last year
-
@Ash that’s a good question. I’m thinking it’ll be the week after the 15th that DDD will pop up. So possibly the 27th is the earliest we’ll get DD.
-
So fedural with the credit , isn’t going to update till the 15th & we won’t see it till the 27th ? Or is it possible to come earlier , ?
-
No mail today…. I tried to call to speak to a rep all day no luck… why a storm had to come today 🤦🏾♀️
-
@Tamara foret: I was wondering the same thing
-
@Lori I would like to know what number as well because when I called, they said they couldn’t give me the pin
-
Someone talked to someone and said if you got an adjustment it might take a little longer to process…in my case they increased it $300 but starting to rather have my original refund instead of the extra $300…hopefully update by morning….I filed 1/28 and was accepted 2/1
-
LORi
What number did you call -
Anyone mind helping me out i got my ddd this morning for the 14th may i get it tomorrow using turbo prepaid card.
-
Anyone know if i can chevk online why my state tax was less than it was supposed to be.. was supposed to get 1,692.00 but i got 1,452.00 idk why last year it was less too
-
I had the message today that they mailed a letter to me on the 6th. I haven’t received the letter yet but I did call and the woman that I spoke with gave me the information that I needed to to fill in the online refund verification (the pin).
-
No check here yet
-
No check for me yet
-
*For 2/15 not by 2/15
-
So I was accepted on 1/29 went green on 2/5 had refund adjusted (they took $538 out) and I’m still green. No movement whatsoever since that adjustment. I thought I would get my DD by 2/15 🤦🏾♀️
-
@Ash Our mail hasn’t come yet. Probably due to the snow
-
My mailman is right Down the street y’all …. please pray there is a letter
-
Did anyone get a letter in the mail today so far?
-
I spoke with a representative today since I filed on 1/28 and got a letter sent out on the 6th nothing in the mailbox yet but it is a pin to enter and it takes 3 days to process after that hopefully it is not going to take more than a week to get processed by the way things are going I will get my Federal first. My fiance changed banks and had his mailed on 12th it says to wait 10-14 business days after mailing ridiculous
-
@rosa Yeah I will not send that through the mail…nope.
It can’t be that none of us are getting letters yet =( -
If I don’t have my letter today I’m going to call again and not be so pleasant to these ppl. I mean mine is a measly 600 … last year it was 1200 the year before it was 1500. It gets less and less it’s just the point that only thing that has changed was my bank information. The woman said I wish I could give you the pin to enter on masstaxconnect but I can’t 🤦🏾♀️ I get it I do but 6 days for a letter?
-
so i sent a message through tax connect this morning and this is what I got

@radshackgirl77 (aka: Erika K) I am starting to think that too. Been waiting since the 6th for my letter….I could of gone there and back 30 times by now
-
No check here yet, mine said mailed 2/8
-
I really think they mailed these letters and checks by strapping them to the back of a dyslexic snail and sending him on his way
-
@angie I filed mine 2/2 was accepted the same day an no direct deposit so I know how you feel
-
Has anyone received their check yet? How long did it take?
-
@angie: I feel you. I filled my son’s this past Thursday. He’s getting his state tomorrow. his update yesterday. Crazy
-
This is crazy. Never again will I file before February 1st ever again. Every single year I file Feb 1st I have my taxes within 7 days and I know about 25 people who have their money and they filed after Feb 1st. So first year I filed Jan 25 and still nothing. It’s so backwards. Hell someone on here filed Feb 4th and had their money in 5 days. Wtf
-
@Ash: I swear they’re such evil little sh**s over there. They were probably just mailed yesterday knowing them. I’m gonna start calling them every single time I get paid and ask them to verify themselves for the taxes taken out of my check. 😂
-
Letter sorry typo
-
I called about my left that was. “ sent” on the 6th and she said wait the remainder of the week I’m like it says 3-5 days we live in mass how long does it take?
-
Anybody get a letter today in the mail? This snow falling hard in the Berkshires
-
@heather: I’ve never heard of that. They didn’t tell you exactly what that is when you called. That’s so strange
-
I sent them a message on masstaxconnect asking what was going on with processing, that people that filed after me have got their refund and they sent me this
Dear Taxpayer,
Your return is still in the final stage of processing. You will either receive your refund or a letter if more information is needed in the next week to ten days.
Hopefully they just hurry up!
-
@rosa: I plan on calling if I don’t get my letter today as well
-
Anyone know what field 6 is on mass revenue just missing that field they have to fix I called that’s what my hold up is
-
@radshackgirl77 I think your right
-
@rosa: you should call them. Sending then messages on mass tax connect is pointless. Their replies make no sense. You’ll get no where that way
-
So I sent a message through tax connect about still not having my letter and all I was told was to send information to another department of them through the mail which obviously means it is going to hold up my refund even more so looks like I am just gonna have to wait out the whole letter situation. This sucks
-
I’m with you, I don’t get it
-
Has anyone who has child credit recieved a DDD?im just curious. I recieved my state yesterday on my DDD even tho it was $250 less than what is was supposed to be.. .. still waiting on my federal.. damn PATH b.s.
-
I’m still waiting and accepted feb 1 no letters nothing everyone else’s I did got there’s already I’m confused
-
@maegan
No only federal
-
I’m getting it deposited to a Netspend prepaid card
-
Filings were accepted 2/4 I have Earned income credit and additional child tax credit, will they hold my state too? Or just federal?
-
I’m gonna check my mail today hopefully I got it cuz it was sent out on the 8th I’ll let everyone know
-
@Ed
Well update us and let us know when you get the deposit
-
I got a turbo prepaid card last year,(issued by green dot) im only using it so i didnt get a letter stating that i am getting mailed check because thats the account it was deposited in last year. So in short answer yes i am using a prepaid card. Also for anyone wondering i had a address change, no issues. (crossing my fingers) no deposit yet hoping for thursday the ddd
-
Idk, I’m in Worcester area and still waiting. Filed 1/28, accepted 2/1
@ ed
Are you getting it deposited to a prepaid card?
-
Ugh nope still nothing, amount still in green…
You can make an account and log in on the masstaxconnect and it shows your refund in green and when it updates to a black $0 that means it’s getting refunded and there’s a tab that says refund and it’ll show when it’s issued
-
You just dont get too see the balance change. Jamie you arnt missing out, the way you do it is the simple way. There is a more advanced info way but you have to make a account which takes time just to get the same info you see on the one your using. (If your only looking for the status that is) BTW I seen someome else say New Bedford Area got state today are they doing it by region?
-
Honestly jamie making a account is all we did it takes a day for the site to make it cuz a administration has to approve it with the way your using it will turn from processing to the date it was filed and issued. As soon as u get a ddd it will say the issue/ddd
-
I seen someone on the other page say that they called and said their kid lost the letter and they asked her a bunch of questions and released it…but I would just be worried about lying and having something go wrong and it take longer
-
What does everyone mean when they say updated to 0?? I can only check my status on the mass tax connect page nd i only see it says processing…. i got mine last yeat in the 9th….idk whats taking so long either but i need it!!
-
Update ddd of 2/14, everyone should check again i checked at 8:00
-
Sorry everyone, updated to 0 this morning. Filed 1/28 accepted same day, and issued today idk the ddd ill state it in a min looks like we are moving along. I apology. To others waiting.
-
@Jamie will do
-
Yeah the letters and checks seem to be taking forever let us know what they say
-
I was sent a verification letter on the 4th and just checked the informed app for my mail and still no letter. I am calling them this morning because I am pissed.
-
Ya my refund is larger and they increased it a little over $300 too so that might be the hold up, last year didn’t get it until March 1st, was hoping would get it earlier but doesn’t look like it…hopefully my federal will update tomorrow so I have something to look forward to
-
Yeah I was issued a check on the 8th as well and still haven’t recieved it
-
I have a ” large state refund ” and my check was sent on Feb 11th. I opted for DD but was issued a check.
Accepted on Jan 31st updated to check issued Feb 8th. -
Filed 1/17 and accepted 2/1 and still no DDD. This happened last year and i had to wait until 3/9 to get my refund. They hold refunds thT they consider big for last and give all the smaller ones first.
-
I filed on the 24th. Been green since the 1st. No update.
-
So.i just checked the mail mail on informed delivery and thier is no check. Also my brother had a letter mailed on the 6 and still hasn’t got it
-
@ Sam… Me either & I filed/accepted 1/26
-
No frigin update for me, I don’t get it
-
I filed 1/31 accepted 2/2 I’ve been green for a week no deposit info as of 645Am today. Wondering if I should start to worry.
-
I have informed delivery and it shows my mail that’s coming around 7:23am I will post if the check is in the mail. They sent my check out on the 8th
-
You guy with check should get it between today and tomorrow Because they probably sent them out in the afternoon the 8th was friday
-
How long will it take to receive my state tax check? Opted for DD but sent check instead 🤦🏻♀️
-
I told her not to take that damn card it’s all good I I loaned her a couple but it was real f*****-up that they didn’t tell her about that and the only reason why I got so many details cuz I had to pretend iwas her on the phone and call them and see what was going on cuz she was beside herself
-
@tae
Dam I would be tight!!! -
I recieved my state taxes today in my DDD.. . It was in my bank (New Bedford credit union) at 5:30 a.m ..
-
Just to let anyone who filed with H&R Block and got an Emerald card if you elected to get a refund transfer from the state on your card and you got a loan then they are taking that long with any tax preparation fees out of your state so if you don’t have your money on your card and you was told that you had a direct deposit of 2/11 that’s because they took all your money just letting you know cuz it happened to my sister
-
No my check was mailed on the 8th to and have not recieved it
-
Did anyone receive their mailed checks yet I didnt get mine yet and said it was sent the 8th
-
Does anyone know what time mass releases there direct deposits my refund is really helping me with some bills and am trying to plan it … my dd date is 1/12 so I was wondering if it hits at midnight or like sometime during the day tomorrow
-
Hi I was suppose to get DD also for my state and instead it says mailed check on 8th
-
Anyone with emerald card get there refund I had DDD 2/11 and still no money
-
Hi Shawna..I too was suppose to have direct deposit for both state & federal,but after the update on my state friday saying my check is being issued on feb 11th? i call jackson hewitt & she said the reason I’m getting a check for state is becuz i filed early in jan 24th & state wasn’t processing yet & didn’t have my serve card info so anyone who filed early will most likely get a check mailed out instead of direct deposit for state..my federal will be on or after the 15th becuz of earned income credit.
-
Good luck to everyone . Hope you all will get updated soon .
-
Filed with TT 2/4
Accepted 2/4
Turned Green 2/5
Updated Today for DDD 2/13 TDBANK

I kno ive been checking my status all day like ughh so aggravating!
-

-
DDD for 2/11 since 2/5 and still nothing in my account
Filed 1/25 Accepted 1/27
-
@ ed
Lol I know I been so jealous of everyone getting ddds and deposits! I can wait to get an update!
-
As of 3:+0 no update ill let everyone know if i do.
-
@ Jamie
Lol oh ok that makes sense 😂 and I’m being impatient too lol
-
If anyone gets updated today please post alot of us are still waiting so please, if anyone gets a issue date or ddd today please let everyone in here know so we can be jelious and look at ours.
-
They are 2 different jamie’s commenting on here!! I apologize for the confusion! Im just being inpatient I filed the 26th got accepted 2/1 and still processing!! My fiance filed after me got accepted before me nd receieved his DD today!! I just really need the money so thats why im on here being nosey and beint inpatient!!
-
and no letter today!!!! I don’t see how it takes 6 days for a letter to come.
-
So I just called ma DOR , my refund amount had went up 132$ and the woman I spoke with told me that since it had to be adjusted it will take a little extra time to process
-
E-filed-1/24, Accepted-2/1 (change to green), DDD-2/11, Deposited into CapitalOne acct. 2/11 at 7am .
-
I just got a message from masstaxconnect and they said the date of my letter sent was 2/6/19 and to allow the remainder of the week for it to come in the mail. 🤦🏾♀️ That’s more than 3-5 days
-
@sam seems like we are stuck in the waiting game.
-
@ed
I filed 1/28 and was accepted 2/1 and still in green and no updates either
-
Did anyone receive a letter yet? Mines was mailed on the 6th still didn’t receive it. Also still one bar for my fed with tt 152. It says being processed instead of still being processed. 🤷🏽♀️🤦🏾♀️
-
This is annoying my uncle who filed 2/6 just got his DDD date at 11:00 this morning for 2/13. I still got no update filed accepted 1/28 still green no updates anyone else like me call?
-
last year I called because I was accepted on opening day and it was March and still was processing the rep was pretty cool and told me that the bigger refunds they are looking over a little closer and the smaller ones get pushed out quick…there’s obviously exceptions depending on the circumstances…last 2 years I’ve got my refund in March 2016 I got 2k 2017 I got 1700….this year I’m only getting 800 and got my dd in a week
There could be a little truth to what he told…but who knows
-
I jus spoke to a representative because i giled and was accepted on 1/24 I asked what was taking so long he lpoked up my account and told me by this week or next I should have my state and he said most likely this week if that helps anyone
-
@ Jamie
It’s comfisimg cause one post you put that we misunderstood and that they said they mailed a check out on the 8th and now your saying you aren’t getting a check…if it tells you you are still processing and nothing else then you are still processing
-
@ Jamie
So you aren’t getting a check then? If your getting a check it would say it on wmr or on masstaxconnect…if it says still processing then that’s what it means, it’s still processing
-
I never receieved anything requesting more info or saying they are mailing me a check mine just says what day it was receieved and that it is still processing!
-
How do you know if your getting a check or not?
-
I live within walking distance of the Boston office and still waiting on my i.d verify letter. I don’t think the date they say it was sent is accurate. I think that date is just when they decided you’re getting a letter and it’s sent a day or 2 later. It’s the only thing that makes sense to me. They’re a bunch of sadists 😫
-
@Steven I am in worcester and still waiting on the letter
-
my boyfriends direct deposit came in today and I haven’t even received my letter yet UGGGGG
-
@ Jamie
Oh ya you said yours said still processing so didn’t think you had an update. I know a lot of people are getting checks instead, I haven’t ever got a check but from the looks of things it take 5-7 days
-
You guys misunderstood. I asked for my state to be direct deposited but thier sending a check instead. It says the check was sent out on the 8th of this month. I was curious if anyone who has a check
Mailed on the 8th has received it yet -
Mail came and still no check :/
-
Of the people who got the “additional info needed message” where are you guys located? I got it on the 6th and I am in Lowell. I find it hard to believe that it takes 5 days for a letter to travel from Boston to Lowell. But, then again my rent check has before taken 3 days to go one town over. I’m assuming they either don’t mail it out until end of day that day or, end of next day.
-
@ Jamie
I believe they only update overnight and don’t think they have a certain day for deposits
-
I still havnt recieved my mass state refund but my fiance receieved his this morning….mind still only says processing….does anyone know how often the site updates?? Nd what days of the week they do DD??
-
Wtf I still haven’t updated, I don’t get it
-
@gaingreene I hope ur right I’m super annoyed. Look at all the ppl who have netspend with ddd for 2/12, the got their deposits Wednesday and Thursday last week.
-
Filed 1/28
Accepted 1/29
Still processingFiled my sons 2/4 he updated this morning to check mailed 2/12
Happy for my son but I’m annoyed
-
@kie
I always got my state dd in my account in the afternoon…1 year it came through at like 2pm another year it was like 4pm
-
@sam
Could have been middle of the night or this morning I didn’t check it until like 9am because I honestly didn’t think it would update Sunday night going into Monday…because obviously the DOR isn’t working Sunday…but the maybe system updates 7 days a week
-
@Laura thank you so much now I feel much better knowing this I was really confused at first and now I understand!
-
When did you update?
-
I updated to black 0’s…said check mailed 2/12….I kinda expected that since everyone said that if you changed did accounts that they were mailing checks instead….I filed and accepted on 2/4 I didn’t expect it this quick…
-
@Shawna I always did too they just seem to have heightened their security these past few years and are being more cautious. No, federal shouldn’t issue a check they seem to really follow through with DD
-
@laura oh ok that makes more sense but i don’t understand because I’ve always done direct deposit every year and never needed to verify my identity. So you think federal will issue me a check as well?
-
@Shawna its usually a security thing that they mail a check instead of DD like requested, I had to ID verify last year and then used a different bank account this year for my deposit and that’s why I was issued a check instead of DD
-
Filed mine and my daughters taxes on 1/28 we both got our direct deposit today!
-
Rosa- I checked my federal and since I have a daughter mine is saying with child credit they aren’t updating nothing until mid to late February. So annoying
-
I filed my taxes on TurboTax and I submitted my bank information and on Friday the state updated and said they issued me a check on February 11th and i don’t understand I called my bank and they said there nothing wrong with my bank and they don’t understand why the status of my refund said they issued a check and can be just saying that but still doing the direct deposit. I checked my bank account this morning and still nothing.. anyone else have this problem?
-
Has anyone received any update on the federal return yet
-
Still waiting on my letter as well
-
@Tamara exactly!!! I already got my mail today and nothing I am so mad
-
@rosa I completely agree. When I mail a letter it’s 2 days TOP. I think they just put them in a pile and mail them at the end of the week. Hoping today to get something.
-
@Tamara its ridiculous no way should it have taken this long something is fishy
-
@rosa Nothing here yet…not sure how it takes so long to mail
-
has anyone gotten their verification letter yet
-
Anyone who elected ddd but got mailed a check on Feb 8 get the check yet
-
So frustrated I was told on 2/4/19 a letter went out for verification just check amount still in green and still no letter in the mail.
-
I hope it’ll change, believe me I been checking non stop all day everyday lol 😂
-
I filed my son’s taxes this past Thursday. I just checked his mass refund status and it was issued with a date of 2/13. I love him but I’m so jealous lol
-
Did you look under the refund tab on MTC? That will give you the refund amount & issue date which is your ddd.
@Sam
I found this year & last year as well, whenever I checked MTC in the morning early there wouldn’t be a change and then between 9 and 10am it would update.
Hope this helps! 😃 Good luck!
-
I have no update at all, for state or federal…would be nice to see something, anything
-
DDD for 2/11 since Tuesday 2/5, woke up to nothing in my account smh
-
Oh and as far as feds I filed and was accepted 1/28, and still haven’t even gotten a path message which is strange AF… I need some type of movement especially on my states geesh
-
I am so annoyed… I was accepted 2/2… on 2/6 a letter went out saying I owed a little and my refund was adjusted and the rest refunded…. my amount went black and zero in MTC on 2/7…. thought I would have a deposit today… but nope, nada. Frustrating Bc I know it’s coming they just weren’t clear with a DDD which is annoying. 😩😩😩
-
Dam, I hope they update throughout the day because I have no change
-

-
@Me the OG*
-
@ Me 4th Oh do you have credits?
-
@ed
I know I won’t see federal till after 15th I just wasn’t sure if I wasn’t updating because i haven’t updated to the path message for my federal, I know you don’t get path message for state and they don’t hold the state…but you said you have the path message and haven’t updated so idk, hopefully I’ll update tomorrow
-
Did mine jan 18th fed and state MA…. Both accepted 28th. State recently updated and says deposit WAS deposited feb 11th even tho its the 10th lol but lets see tomorrow if it comes. Atleast its a hefty child credit in it. Federal can come in a week or 2 ill make it after state hits.
-
Yes i am a PATHer I got a PATH message already on my federal. All of us PATHers, will have no update until atleast the 18th of Feb Techniqualy maybe the 15 cuz it is a friday. But yes i got PATH message anyone waiting for Federal that filed EIC will have to wait. As i asked other PATHers they have recieved state. And no i dont have a PATH message for state only on my federal.
-
Filed 1/24, accepted 2/1, DDD of 2/11, no money yet for me in my account.
-
@ash
The eic doesn’t effect state refunds, some people have already got their ddd’s or refunds…I’m still waiting for mine to update, I filed 1/28 and was accepted 2/1
-
@JB
I Hope it’s still andover! If that’s the case and they actually mail it Monday I should have it within a day or 2. Fingers crossed.
-
Yeah I have the turbo tax prepaid card so I’m hoping it will come fairly quickly but as of now I havnt seen any movement or updates in about 10 days
-
With the eic credit , when do we actually get a deposit date of that ?
-
@brandon thats the 8-10 that they can pro ess but thats usually for checks not dd
-
@christie
Sorry meant until you get a reply from @joslyn -
-
@Ash: same here. I’m on pins and needles waiting for this letter. 🤨😭😫
-
Still waiting on my letter and tt152 with fed

Filed 1/20 with TT, Accepted 1/22, PATHer
DDD for MA refund 2/11, but refund was deposited into my BofA account 2/09 -
Yesh it seems like all 1/27 filers didnt get a ddd yet, i am a path also so maybe any pather get their ddd yet from state
-
@joslyn
Where do they mail out the refund checks from? I live near newburyport and am wondering how long it’ll take to receive it…
-
Ya I filed 1/28, hoping for update on Monday…that’ll be what 11/12 business days…they adjusted my refund and increased it so obviously they already checked it…I am waiting for the path message still for my federal so idk if they are waiting for federal to approve me before giving me a ddd…just praying Monday I’ll see something
-
Who else is waiting on their refund check? Mine was switched to check form for security reasons said it was sent out yesterday curious to no the average time it takes to come in the mail. I live in western mass so mine might take a extra day because I’m farther away..anyone have any idea how long it takes?
-
Seriously I can’t believe I still don’t have a DDD I know at least 10 people who filed Feb 1st and already have either their Money or at least a DDD. But people who filed 1/28 are still waiting for a DDD that’s freaking backwards. Last year I filed Feb 1st and had my money on Feb 7th lol so me yr I know what day im filing. Come on Mass. U should be doing the ones who filed first. Here is hoping for Monday update
-
@Sha060809 thanks..still waiting on the letter they sent the 6th
-
I would say yes…
-
How do you find out what address DOR has on file? Is it the one on Massconnect
-
No deposit for me either. Santander ddd 2/11. Hoping for Monday, but better be by Tuesday!
-
@courtney: when was yours mailed
-
Anyone received their check yet? Still not here for me
-
@Mali7
No they don’t. If they did, my excise tax would of been paid off 7 yrs ago lol -
I got my letter in the mail today. To bad its Saturday. Hopefully I will get my DD next week.
-
@Kim
Makes me want to change to BOA for next year but then we would have to wait for that ID verify letter lol.
No win.Any updates for PATHers for Fed?
-
@J B you do the same thank you
-
@Kim
And obviously lol I have Santander as well.
Please keep me posted on your available date. -
@Kim
Not yet for me.
In the past, when my DDD was Monday, it wouldn’t be available until Tuesday. -
Any Santander bank get there deposit? Ddd 2-11?
-
Still waiting on this dang letter
-
Still no update for me. Accepted 2/2, went green 2/4
-
BoA here got my direct deposit this am. Ddd date of 2/11
-
So annoyed, my federal hasn’t even updated, waiting to update to path message, still sitting at one bar…of course no change for state, amount still in green, wmr still says processing
-
No updates for me, see ya tuesday.
-
Bank of America just released mine, DDD for 2/11 ;)
-
I filed at HR block on the 24th, had a ddd for 2-11 and it got deposited Sat 2/9 after 3am in my checking account . Have BOA and got it same day last year . Good luck everyone!! It’s coming ;)
-
Mali7
No! They do not take your return for over due excise ! They don’t have too because they know u can’t renew licenses or registration until it’s paid so no worries about it being taken out of return. -
So strange, I changed banks as well from Green Dot to Santander and I’ve seen lots of people getting checks that have changed banks, but I got a DDD if 2/11?
-
I am SO ANGRY!! I opted for direct deposit, and changed from my checking account to my savings. (Last year used checking). Same bank. They issued my refund via check. They said for security measures if you change direct deposit info they mail the check. This is BS! It is literally the same #, with a different suffix. Why don’t they mail people’s deposits who are selecting DD for the 1st time as a security measure? And why don’t they write that somewhere as a heads up!!! I would’ve kept the same account. I am so furious😠😠😠😠leave it to massachusetts!!!!!!
-
I’m with you @Ash my ddd is 2/11 that would be so awesome if it posts tomorrow
-
I have boa with a deposit date or 2/11 , is it possible it can come tomorrow ?
-
I filed 1/25 and was accepted 1/28 my amount is in green but still no DDD. I just don’t get it. Last year I filed February 1st and had a DDD of 2/9 but had my money 2/7 I was really hoping it happened that way again this year but nope. I’ll never file again before February 1st . I don’t know if they update on the weekend but I Def am not holding my breath that I’ll get a DDD until after Tuesday if im lucky (which im not)
-
Hi Everyone!
Checking in with anyone who has a turbo tax debit and a DD for the 11th, did anyone get their money yet?Thank you😀
-
Filed 2/1 woke up this morning with a DDD for Tuesday 2/12
-
It does say, “Your account is updated each night to include mailing address changes, and the processing of returns and payments.” so hopefully they will update tonight/over the weekend. I also sent a message through masstaxconnect asking if they do, I’ll let you know their response
-
Does anyone have any experience with and debtor spouse? Our Mass. taxes have been taken a md sent to child support. I mailed off the nondebtor spouse form today. Was wondering how long the wait is….?
-
Who filed***
-
Anyone deposit feb 1 or 2nd have a ddd ?
-
Just got my dd on netspend! Good luck everybody :)
-
Does Mass offset taxes for past due excise tax?
-
@Ed
I dont think Mass updates on weekends. At least, it has not updated on weekends (for me) in the past.
Keep us updated if you get one over the weekend though.
If nothing the weekend than I would say Tuesday at the latest.
Good luck! -
I’ve probably refreshed my account page at least 1000 times this week lol I’m praying for a notification in the next hour
-
yup that is how Green Dot works. My pay check usually goes in two days early between 4:45 & 5:00pm
-
Yes Chime is very similar to Green Dot and Netspend, my paycheck is always on a Wednesday from 430-530. I’m expecting my refund at around that time. A lot of ppl received late afternoon and evening deposits
-
@ed that I don’t know
-
What about updates on saturday does it update in the morning for the work they did on friday?
-
@becky Can’t view the letter there because it’s a pin verification for address, so it won’t let you see it online
-
Filed 1/30 accepted 2/1 dd date 2/12
-
@ Ed
I filed the 28th and still waiting..my amounts in green and no letter
-
@ Ed I filed the first of feb did everyone else’s taxes they all got a date and I didn’t still green no letter
-
Anyone with a file date of 1/28 still green, i think im the only one. Everyone else got a letter being sent or a DDD. Can anyone tell me if it updates on saturday?
-
@Kie you are not the only one I have greendot and I’m still waiting for my dd to drop it’s suppose to be the 11th also. Greendot made me wait last year to.
-
@kie gotcha. I have a dd date for the 12th. Hoping it hits netspend today like it did for others yesterday who got the 11th. Hope it hits soon for you!
-
@tiffanyann143 I’m waiting for my state refund to hit my chime prepaid card. They make all deposits early. I was hoping this year would be like the last when I received my refund four days early
-
@Kie Nope 2/11 DDD with emerald card nothing yet
-
@kie what are you depositing it into?
-
Somebody please give me some good news lol I’m still waiting for my DD for 2/11 I’m probably the only one who hasn’t got it yet smh
-
Can anyone let me know if their are updates over the weekend.
-
@J B
Well it’s been 10 business days so better update asap lol…does it update over weekend? I don’t remember
-
I also sent a message and was sent a message back in 10 mins they told me exactly what the woman did. I changed my bank information and they need me to enter the pin on masstaxconnect to verify my identity and the system will automatically push my refund through.
-
@Rosa
Did you call and speak with someone?
(I forget if you posted that answer already) -
@ jb
I hope so.
I have checked correspondence and nothing there.
I just called and talked to a very nice woman. I told her I was updated and still no letter.
She stated mine was a simple verification bc I changed my bank information. After 10 years. Also in the letter it wants you to enter a PIN number when u receive the letter so you wouldn’t see this in correspondence bc of the hacking and shadowing.
She says as soon as I enter my pin my refund will post immediately.
I hope this helps I hope I get my letter today.
-
@Sam
I’m telling you…10-12 business days from the date you filed. Lol -
I updated this morning to a ddd 2/12 filed 1/30
-
@JB yes it is fast once you get the letter from what I remember last year anyway still waiting on my letter for this year that was supposidly sent out monday. Also I cant see it in the correspondce tab like I could last year. this is very frustrating.
-
@Becky i am unable to see my letter
-
Ya mine is still green, no letter…just waiting
-
Those who have letters if you log onto your MTC and check your correspondence tab, it let’s you view the letter so you don’t have to wait for it in the mail.
-
@Ash
It seems that people that switched banks accounts since last year are getting letters for ID verify.
I’m sure you will get the letter today or tomorrow.
I read in one of these forums that its fast after that.I think it was @Rosa that had to verify before…
-
How long does it take to receive a letter? It’s been 4 days.
-
@ Sam is yours still in green and are you getting a letter sent
-
I go to
Masstaxconnect scroll down to where’s my refund put in my ssn, status and amountThen at the bottom it shows when it was accepted and states a letter was sent. In black under the box it shows ya refund in green.
-
I still haven’t updated either…and ya think it shows under letters and when you search where’s my refund it tells you a letter is being sent..from what I seen at least
-
@ash
-
Ash were does it tell u a letter is sent on the mass connect under letters because mines does say any of that I have all the same information for years and still no update
-
I don’t know but I have been doing my own
Taxes for 10 years. I do have a new bank I’m using. However I don’t know what other information they could possibly need from me.I was accepted in in green no letter yet I assume today it will arrive it says 3-5 business days.
-
I just looked at 1130 today. It states a letter was sent 2/6 additional information is needed.
-
Has anyone who said they were getting a letter receive it yet? It seems as if there are a lot of us getting them this year. I am also.
-
Do they update on Saturday mornings or no
-
Mines is still in green and I did everyone’s taxes and everyone got updated but mines how come
-
Ash did it just update that or how u know
-
Any one with boa have a deposit in their account yet ?
-
I am getting a letter, filed 1/28 and was accepted my amount is green it says more information needed additional. Does any know what that means I been filing 10 years?
-
Updated to, letter was sent additional information required for processing
I wonder what they need
-
Well this is upsetting i filed 1/28 and im still green been about 8 days like that. I prob wont see any updates till monday now.
-
@ sam-
It must of happened early this morning because i checked last night around 11 and there was no change, but when i checked today at 8 i saw it.
i filed and got accepted 1/31 and today had back zeros and ddd of 2/11.
i hope you get yours fast!!!
See you all next year!!!! :-) -
Jonny
When did you update?
-
Finally seeing a black 0
-
Accepted 1/30. Ddd of 2-12 for direct deposit !
-
@sam
Yes. I used TT
-
I was accepted Jan 31st and updated this morning after 7am to a checked mailed Feb 11th.
-
I feel like messaging them again but they are just going to say processing takes 4-6 weeks
-
I do not think they are processing in order. I filed 1/17 got accepted 2/1 and have no DDD. But others who filed after do.
-
I wish mine would turn black
-
You click on personal income tax and then to the far right there is a refund tab and it’ll say when refund is issued
-
How do we get a DDD on mass tax connect rather than the refund site my amount is black…
-
I’m surprised you didn’t update seeing how you filed on the 24th…you use TT or? Maybe we’ll get lucky and update at some point today
-
@becky i have the same issue i dont know if i shoudl wait
-
Filed 1/28
Accepted 1/29Been green for daysssss
-
@Sam filed 1/19/19, got accpeted 2/1/19 and went green 2/4/19, but it now says I have a letter coming
-
I filed 28th and got accepted 2/1 and still nothing..they changed my refund and increased it two days ago so figured they looked at it and checked it and I’d be getting a ddd but nothing
-
@ emily
You update overnight? Did you check yesterday? And when did you file/get accepted
-
@sam no change for me still green amount…but I didn’t didn’t file/get accepted until the 4th
-
I wasnt able to lig in to the main site but i was able to login to the site where you put your ssn. I saw my ddd there. I tried to log in just a few mins ago and it was up and i saw black zeros.
-
Seems like everyone is gone…did anyone update overnight? Like you checked yesterday and then now and it’s different?
-
Well hopefully they update throughout day then
-
Filed on 24th. Green since 2/1. No update for me.
-
@rosa
When did you file/get accepted? -
@ Sam no nothing
-
@ Emily
Did you check yesterday? Or did you update overnight? Like I said I tried checking at 3 AM and site was down, I’m really hoping they’ll update through the day
-
Any update Rosa?
-
Still in green 😕 no letters or anything…guess only thing I can hope for is that everything went down so they couldn’t continue to process returns and they’ll process some during day and I’ll update later on 🤷♀️ I really want to cry 😭
-
able to get in now
-
Ya I checked there 😞 hasn’t updated…at first it didn’t work but then I refreshed and it worked but same thing as yesterday
-
Check MTC now.
Just tried it again after I posted and I got in. -
@Sam @Rosa
I haven’t been able to login to MTC either.Mass Wheres My Refund does seem to be working for me. HAve you checked there?
-
I tried checking at 3AM and the site was down…so I’m hoping it’s just down and when it goes back up they’ll push more ddds out
-
@Emily are you able to login?
-
@ Emily
When did you file/get accepted?
-
Got a ddd for 2/12!!! Woohoo
-
Lmao
-
@sam: *I meant wmr not war lmao
-
@sam: yes I tried the war link. That’s fine. It’s just strange that the rest of the site is down
-
It has to be all systems are down because the for child support website is down as well
-
Maybe Mass tax connect is still updating and that’s why it’s down or there’s an issue with the update. Maybe all the people that haven’t updated yet will update when it comes back up.😃😃😃
-
I wish I was issued a check instead of wanting for this i.d. verify letter. Checks come pretty quick but letters take forever to come. Makes no sense
-
Did you try wmr link? I refreshed and the wmr link worked, mine didn’t update but someone else said there’s did…and they filed and were accepted after me, I thought for sure I would update today 😕
-
If yours was changed to a check it’s a security measure if you changed your bank info from last year or any other info. They do this so you can still get your refund quickly and not have to I’d verify. Be lucky it wasnt a letter instead of a check. Same thing happened to me yesterday and that’s what they told me
-
Ya, MA Tax connect has been down for at least the last hour. I already got a DDD but that still worries me! Mine is not in my account yet LOL
-
Lots of people have been saying they requested direct deposit and got checks instead. I think if you look down the thread someone said they called and it’s like a security measure. So instead of having to verify they’re sending a check maybe a changed bank account or something I’m not really sure.
-
What is up with mass tax connect. Can’t get on the site at all
-
Why!!?? 😭 I need to pay my lights by tonight…I can’t believe I didn’t update
-
I chose DD when filing, and just double checked all my filing info. However mass connect is showing a check being issued for 2/11. Does anyone know why they’d change it to mail a check?? 😢
-
DDD for 2/11 and nothing in my account yet, I have Chime btw
Last year my GreenDot had the deposit four days early, patiently waiting….
-
Well looks like I didn’t update then cause wmr still has the same message, “Your return was received on 30-Jan-2019 and is being processed. Please allow four to six weeks for processing” ugh I don’t get it, they obviously worked on my return because they changed my amount, don’t know why it’s taken so long 😭
-
@sam
I’m not able to log into masstaxconnect but I was able to for WMR
-
@tiffanyann143
You were able to log in?
-
I did see on the other page some pathers got a ddd today and never got the path message
-
Can’t login to masstaxconnect and can’t access the Where’s my Refund link either
-
I filed 2/2
Accepted 2/2
Amount turned green on 2/4
Woke up this morning for a dd date of 2/12 :) -
Ok so I filed 1/28, was accepted 2/2….turned green 2/4…… on 2/6, my green amount went up an extra $100. I was so confused. Then on 2/7…. my green amount turned blacked $0. But I also had a letter in my account that said I owed money so they took out $150 and refunded the rest. Now I no longer see my refund tab as of yesterday on MTC to check a DDD. And on WMR it just says my refunded amount changed and a letter is coming in 3-5 business days. But no DDD, and the actual letter does say they “refunded” my new amount but has no DDD on the letter either. Was hoping to log in today and see a date but now I can’t even log onto MTC for some reason and WRF has the same message. So for people like me whose amount went black and the state took some money out of my refund do we have a 2/11 DDD as well or we just play the wait game some more lol? I am also a Pather and my Fed have been accepted 1/28, but no movement since. Not even the Path message just says if everything’s good I will be refunded in 21 days…. weird.
-
Cant log into MTC, anyone else having issues?
-
Idk they adjusted my amount and I’m still waiting..I can’t log in either, I did just do where’s my refund and that hasn’t changed so idk 😞
-
DDD for 2/11, showed up in my account a few minutes ago!
-
Ok I thought I was bugging hopefully they are updating because I can not log in rither praying I see my balance in black with a 0 I filed and accepted 1/24
-
Is anyone familiar with how long after they adjust your amount they cut your check? My refund was adjusted by 96 dollars but the website wont let me log in to view the notice.
-
You’re right, when people ask about ddd I forget about the refund tab cause I think issue date…but yes you can see on masstaxconnect when it gets issued
-
@JB
My ddd is 2/11. Ill keep you posted!
Mass Tax Connect does give you a ddd/issue date, in this case they are one in the same. Reposting below directions on how to get there through MTC.
Sha060809
When your on MTC if you click personal income tax you should see all the tabs like periods, submissions etc. The last one says Refunds and it lists your refund amount and date of issue etc. for this year and previous years. If your viewing on your phone you have to scroll all the way over to the right. Also the refund will only show there once your green has gone back to a black $0 which means your refund is complete. -
Just wondering, what does it mean when the amount does turn green?
-
Masstaxconnect doesn’t provide ddd you need to use the where’s my refund to find out ddd. Masstaxconnect will just show balance in black $0 when it’s going to get refunded
-
I have been accepted as of 2/1 still no green, still no movement. ANXIOUS AS HECK.
-
Anyone with a 2/11 DDD of boa receive anything ?
-
Hey guys, on mass connect my refund amount has been in green for 3 days. How long does it usually take to process? Also, will mass connect provide a ddd? Where would I look for this date?
-
I just wanna wake up to an update
-
Smh I better wake up to money in my account
-
Anyone use USAA? I usually get my paycheck pending direct deposit a day before payday, so I’m hoping to see the same thing happen with my MA refund, it said yesterday “your refund was issued February 11, 2019.” Crossing fingers and toes!
-
@tae: the system did used to update at 7pm for refund updates, that’s when I always got mine. This year is completely different, they’re updating overnight now.
-
@Ed
This is what it says on Masstaxconnect “When will changes to my account take effect?
MassTaxConnect is available 365 days a year, 24 hours a day. Your account is updated each night to include mailing address changes, and the processing of returns and payments. A payment may take several days to process.” I know someone checked at 1AM and they didn’t update but then around 6, like a lot of other people, they updated.I filed 1/28 with TT and accepted 2/1 and still waiting for ddd…I’m hoping tomorrow
-
I personally I think the best time to check is between 5 a.m. and 7 a.m. in the morning that’s when I seen my changes this year I know a few people have been saying that 7 p.m. they’ve seen changes but I’ve seen more people including myself say between 5 a.m. and 7 a.m. is when their DD date came out
-
@ Ed I used TT.. I have heard ppl accepted still in the green should check wheres my refund on the MTC page they are being told a letter is on the way
-
I do believe that states issuing bank is Santander there’s a chance that you might get it after 12 p.m. in the afternoon tomorrow that’s if they issued it Wednesday or Thursday but if they send it out on a Friday then you probably won’t see it until Monday
-
Accepted 2/01 DDD 2/11 hoping will be early deposit..
-
Hey Ed back again, i was wondering does anyone know what time the mass website updates also, anyone from 1/28 file date with turbo got a ddd yet?
-
do they really update again after 10pm?
-
Filed on 1/31 accepted 2/1 still green.
-
I actually received mine earliee last year with boa! So You might actually wake up to something tomorrow
-
@ Sam found it. DDD 2/11 but I have santander. And they dont deposit until the money’s cleared. Greedy banks lol so trusting of even the govt.
-
Filed feb 1
Accept feb 2
Green as of today
No ddd -
BOA never deposits early you will get it the day of unless they release the funds earlier because BOA does not hold funds
-
I got accepted 1/30. Still green no ddd and my refund was lowered by 14 bucks.😭😭😭😭
-
Filed 1/25 accepted 1/28 Ddd 2/11
Last year I had a ddd for 3/12 and I received it 3/8 @530pm I’m anxious like let’s go lol
-
Bank of america for me with a ddd of 2/11. Think it might come earlier?
-
Does anyone know how long its takes for the checks to comes? They say 10 to 14 business days I really hope that’s not the case
-
Filed 1/26 with tax act. accepted 2/2. I have Santander. Got DDD of 2/11 today. Fingers crossed it’ll come tomorrow??? Lol, time will tell. FYI–Santander’s close of business for the day is 10pm. Hopefully this is helpful…
-
By the way she also has a DD date for the 11th
-
I got a DD date for the 11th as well but I have Bank of America so I know I won’t even see my refund until Monday Tuesday probably…… my cousins here with me and I was telling her about this thread and she wants to know if anybody that filed through H&R Block and got an Emerald Card has a deposit on that card yet and do anybody know if deposits come in early on that card, so if anybody get a deposit tomorrow is Saturday with the Emerald card if you have a chance please post it so I can give her the information..lol
-
@Czarface
When did you get your ddd? Today or?
-
O wow that’s awesome!! Didn’t think it’d get deposited that early, so hopefully I’ll update tomorrow and get a deposit ASAP too…yall give me hope lol
-
I just got mine. Netspend. Ddd of the 11th!
-
Mine just hit guys 2/11 ddd netspend
-
My money is in the bank whomp whomp!! So excited. Ddd was for 2/11 and it’s in my bank at 3:00. I have credit union
-
Woke up this am with DDD of 2/11…
Filed: Jan 24
Accepted: Feb 2
Green: Feb 4
DDD: date shown as of today(2/7) DDD of 2/11 -
@ Czarface
I’m thinking sat the 9th
-
Any chance we might see a deposit today with the 2/11 date? I have netspend and i get paid on wednesday instead of friday with it.
-
@Chrispat19893
Did you put in your ss# and refund amount on where’s my refund?
-
My balance went to black and zero today with it saying my refund was processed but the amount was adjusted due to owing the it’s like 100 bucks. It doesn’t give me a DDD. Anyone know when that should be? Or what I need to do?
-
@Lisaj
I never used HR because they charge so much so sorry can’t help 😞
-
@ arthur T
They say they aren’t holding state refunds like they are with Federal. So far it seems like they are moving along pretty quick. I filed 1/28 and accepted 2/1 and still waiting but a lot of people who filed before 1/28 got deposits or ddd already…Hopefully there will be updates tomorrow too
-
@Ileana Ortiz
Tax is what you owe, Credit is what your refund is, Blance is what you will be getting back…when the balance turns to a black $0 that means your refund is getting refunded
-
Does anyone know how the HR block emerald card works for direct deposits
-
Summary
Tax. $346.00
Credit. ($1684.00)
Balance ( $1338.00) in green
I don’t understand what all this means on mass tax connect, can someone explaiyghis to me?
-
So im a path returned state 2/1 tt said accepted 2/2
This is my second year claiming a child and i cant recall how i made out ladt year but is there a hold on state? I was led to beleive that they only hold fed cause my fed says check back in mid to late feb. I dont beleove i cak rely on my last year return for refrekce because 1. I did the wrong dd info and it was mailed after. 2.DFAS took money out of my taxes. What should i expect ? -
@Sha060809
You KNOW I will be posting as soon as it hits that day lol.As for that other thread and the person claiming the 7th…I have no clue. What I am thinking is maybe s/he had to wait until Fed was accepted like I did before transmitting State???? I’m still not sure why that even happened but it’s done now.
Don’t think they replied back with anything yet.@LisaJ
If you’re on MTC and looking st the amounts under this years period your refund amount should be the amount listed on the “Other” line.
Or…like Sha said…Check the refund tab to see your amount. Scroll down a bit to one of Sha060809 s posts for directions on how to get there.@JonLaco12345
My last message to you was sent to moderation. I (attempted) to post that hoursssss ago lol -
@Jonlaco12345
Is it for the same exact amount? That is super weird!They should let you just keep it due to your honesty.
Hopefully that doesnt mess up other people’s refunds if they discover it happened more than once. So ummmm…can you wait until 2/11 before calling?
😜😉🤪 jk.Everyone….check the mail too! LOL
-
I filed 1/28
Updated today for DDD 2/11But the amount has changed
Is the balance what your getting back or the credit
-
@JB
Well that’s good to hear. Definitely post when it hits! I know you will anyway but just sayin lol
I saw that person in the other Mass Forum say they couldn’t file till February 7th? What’s that all about?
-
@Sha060809
Actually…last year I had a Friday DDD and it was cleared for Monday. -
@Sha060809
Keep me posted. We have the same bank!!!!! I have had it for a few years and it usually takes 1-3 business days for mine to clear. Going off past records, when my DDD is Monday, I receive it on Tuesday.
But…another year my DDD was on a Friday but it didnt clear until Tuesday.What is your DDD?
-
JB
I am glad as well! Last year I had a GreenDot card and the year before that so it always went in the day the state issued it, but I changed to Santander this year so I have a feeling I won’t get it till beginning of next week.
-
I messaged asking how long it takes to process and this is the response I got
Dear Taxpayer,
Thank you for your inquiry to the Massachusetts Department of Revenue, please see our response below:Even after your return is accepted and posted, the turnaround time for an e-file return to be processed is 4-6 weeks. Please see the attached flyer for tax return processing turnaround times. To check the status of your refund during this turnaround time use the “Where’s my refund?” link located under Quick links on the MassTaxConnect home page.
Please let us know if we can be of any further assistance. If you have additional questions, please provide a telephone number where we may contact you.
Thank you for using MassTaxConnect
Just the basic generic message…hopefully they looked at mine and hit the ok button and I’ll see update tomorrow
-
@Ed
Forgot to add…
Usually receive State DDD within 12 business days max.I have EIC and ACTC.
-
@Sha060809
Thanks for that update!!! I completely forgot about that tab. Usually checking on my phone so I forgot to scroll over.I’m just glad that the updates are all in sync this year when you check MTC, WMR, and Call line…for me it is anyway.
@Ed
Exactly what Sam said.I am finding my account has been updating between 12AM-6:30AM for Acceptance and DDD.
I filed on 01/22. Received acceptance email via fax prep on 02/01 @1:45AM, also “Green” on MTC as of 02/01 early morning. Noticed DDD this morning around 6:20AM.Fed is still on PATH message for me. No update expected until the end of next week at the earliest. I typically file before IRS and State opens and always receive Fed no later than the February 23rd.
Hope this helps…
-
@ Ed
The green amount is the amount your getting back, just means processing…when it turns black $0, that means it’s getting refunded. They said the path doesn’t affect the state.
I’m still processing, I filed on 1/28 and accepted 2/1. A lot of people who filed before 1/28 got ddd’s. Hoping 1/28 filers get updated tomorrow.
They said they update overnight but people have said it updated later in the day so idk
-
I been watching posts on here for awhile before choosing to post, but i am a PATH so i gave up on checking federal. I made a account on mass tax connect and it shows my amount in green. But when i check the other simple one without having to sign in(the one which u put amount year and social it just says processing. From what i read on here path doesnt affect state? If im not doing it right can someone give me a link to the proper site or clear up a few things for me. Sorry if some of my questions been answered this site is great but control find doesnt work to well.
-
When your on MTC if you click personal income tax you should see all the tabs like periods, submissions etc. The last one says Refunds and it lists your refund amount and date of issue etc.
-
Update,
I am receiving a letter. I called. I also asked why people that signed up for direct deposit are getting checks and he said that another security measure the dor uses. I forgot to ask but I’m wondering now if,after I ID verify will they still send a paper check. 🤔🤔🤔 -
@Michelle
Most of us that received a DDD for 02/11 filed before 01/28 and just received our update today. Heres to hoping you have a DDD for tomorrow. And you are right about the difference between MassTaxConnect (MTC) and the Mass Wheres My Refund (WMR) tool.If anyone is using MTC, it will not show your DDD; only the date return was received and if a credit or payment is owed.
To check if it was Received or DDD listed, Go to Mass WMR, enter your info, and dates will be shown there.The phone and online systems seem to be aligned this year and should provide the same info. You can also call the DOR line and enter your info that way. It will provide the same information listed using the MA Where’s My Refund site. 1-800-392-6089 or 617-887-6367
-
Filed my sons 1/27 first time filer check being mailed 2/8
-
@Michelle thanks heres to hoping the letter hurries up and comes
-
@rosa, I’m pretty sure I’ll actually be getting a letter because that’s what the Dor sight says. It sucks but I have to wait now. I think I would have had a deposit by now. I filed 2/1 and was accepted 2/2. Somebody’s wrong but I won’t know who until I actually get a letter or a deposit.
-
thank you @joslyn
-
If you opted for dd and our getting a check it’s a extra security measure if you changed your bank account info from last year
-
@Michele so I could be waiting for nothing? Should I call as well?
-
hi everyone im sure the answer is in this post someplace but i cant seem to fine it. what does it mean when you check the mass tax connect and it shows your refund in green? ive been seeing a lot about this and also how would you know if your gettng a verification letter
thanks -
Ok. So I posted yesterday that I checked my state for the first time and saw some type of verification they needed so I called in to their office. They said everything is all set and they don’t need anything from me and nothing was sent out and nothing was needed.I checked through mass tax connect by the way. I checked the actual ma for today where you put your numbers in and it says there is a notice of a verification letter sent out and they cant proceed with my return until the get it. My point is check the actual door sight,its more accurate than mass tax connect and the guy on the phone that told me everything was fine I was just waiting for a deposit
-
I did my taxes on 17th got accepted by mass on the 28th check mass connect was green for three days now I just checked and I got a deposit date for the 11th and it’ says zero balance in black they did send me a letter about a change they made on my taxes but they only took out 2$ made an adjustment
-
Well I sent a message on masstaxconnect asking how long it takes, maybe that was the trick @ J B lol
-
@Rosa
Fed
Go to IRS site and select Get your Tax Record Online -
@jb when you say checked on your scranscripts is that federal or state? and how is that done?
-
@Rosa…gotchya.
Sorry everyone for the 599 replies today. Lol
-
@Sam
I have PATH for FED.
01/17 eFiled
01/22 Accepted
01/25 PATH message and its still sitting on that.When I check my tax transcripts I can see my refund amount as a credit and it has a processing date for 2/11. I’ll let you know if theres any movement on that next week. Obviously I’m EIC and ACTC.
Forgot to mention with State, I could not submit it through H&R until Fed was accepted.
-
@JB nothing changed for me from last year except my tax person (who I used last year) had them send me a paper check instead of doing direct deposit. But when I messaged the state through taxconnect they told me it was because I opted in to secure my identity a couple of years ago and that is why I am getting this letter.
-
For those that received ID verify letter…
1. Do you know if it was due to a change in bank accounts?
2. When you verified identity during tax prep (if prepared by yourself via online tax prep) did you take a picture of your ID and use that or did you enter it manually?I may be switching bank accounts this year and am curious for future reference.
Thanks.

E-Filed 1/24, accepted- 2/1, DDD 2/11
-
@ dewy or anyone who got a ddd
Do you all have the path message for your federal already?
I’m still waiting to get the path message, I’m wondering if that’s why my state didn’t update yet
-
Thanks everyone they said they sent the letter on monday still dont have it as of today
-
The reason i.d. verify letters can’t be viewed on mass tax connect is because there is a code on that letter. Part of that verification process is to assure that you receive the letter at your mailing address. Once you get that letter and enter the code on the site that you go on that’s when your i.d. is verified.
-
Called and spoke to DOR. The letter requesting more information is simply a pin number you have to come online to verify your address.
-
@chipmunk1212 I had ID verification last year and I want to say a week 2 weeks tops after I verified I received my direct deposit
Anyone who had a paper check mailed, about how long did it take to receive?
-
Filed 1/24
Accepted 2/1
DDD date today of 2/11 -
Yeah when I checked refund on mass connect it still say it was issued and has the check number but it’s for the exact amount I’m getting in the first place
-
Filed 1/28 thru Turbo Tax
Accepted 2/2
Amount went green 2/4
Amount went to black $0 today 2/7 for DD 2/11
I also changed banks this year so thought I might have to verify, but did not.
I have Santander as well JB
PATH for federal
Filed & Accepted 1/28
Went to Path 2/2 and still there -
@jamie last Friday my balance in green on mass tax connect was the same number as what I was expecting back.. I noticed Monday it went up by like 500, the amount in green. I had. A letter in my mass tax connect this morning saying my refund was off by 500 and they adjusted. When I check where’s my refund, it says they issued a check yesterday.
-
So I just got ddd of the 11th. Balance is 0 now on masstax connect. I was accepted on the 2nd. Used turbo tax.
-
@chipmunk1212 once you verify your id from the letter its quick its waiting for the letter to get to you that takes forever. I have been waiting for my letter since monday and still nothing in the past you could see the letter in your taxconnect account but this year I cannot see it.
-
How do you know your amount changed @amy
-
@Amy how.do you know your amount changed?
-
I filed on 2/19 and my amount is green. I checked this morning and it says they sent me a letter stating that I need to complete an identity verification. Does anyone know how long it takes to get your refund after you complete the identity check online?
-
Well, my suspicions were correct. Found out this morning that I’m getting a letter. I’m 110 percent sure it’s i.d. verify because I changed bank accounts. I’m bummed
-
Anyone who is waiting on a letter for more verification able to see the letter in their taxconnect account or is it just me?
-
My amount changed too..but I haven’t updated to the path for federal yet, I’m wondering if state is waiting until my fed updates….I filed 1/28 also with TT, I hope they don’t send a check…but actually at this point I think I’d be happy if I seen they sent a check lol 😂
-
@jamie I used Jackson Hewitt. So I don’t know. My amount did change, so maybe that has something to do with it.
@sam I have had path message since like a day after my federal was accepted ..it’s still the same.
-
I field on 1/28 as well
-
I wonder if it has something to do with people who filed with turbo tax. Hopefully federal dosent send a check.
-
JB I filed 1/28
-
@Amy did you use turbo tax?
-
People who got a ddd, if you’re path, did your federal wmr update to path message?
And people who didn’t get an update that are on the path, has your fed update to path message?
-
Filed 1/29
Accepted 2/2
Amount went green 2/5
No update today
PATH for federal -
Sent a paper check though I opted for direct deposit. Hmmm. At least it’s done I suppose.
-
@jax2128
I have Bank of America and they are famous for deposit delays and mine was deposited same day as tax connect said ddd would be -
@Joslyn @Jamie @Jonlaco12345
You all have same issue. Elected DD, Paper check issued.
Did you all file the same day? That’s so weird! -
I filed with turbo tax and chose to have my direct deposited but I just checked and mass tax connect says they issued a check?
-
Wtf I didn’t update either. God
-
I filed the 24th accepted the 1st then today the 7th my amount went to black. Had to sign into the regular check Stu’s if your refund because where my number go from green to black said nothing about ddd. But on the page that you have to put your SS# and amount , that’s what gave me a DDD of Feb 11.i filed at hr block and I’m Path.
-
I’m still waiting to be updated to the path too…idk if that has to do with why I haven’t updated for state
-
To those that already received your deposit…
Do any of you have Sovereign/Santander? Just curious if your deposit was available the same date listed as DDD.Years past, I always receive a few days afterwards.
Thanks
-
I filed 1/17 TT and accepted 2/1 no DDD yet!
-
Woke Up To A Deposit 🙏
Filed 1/18
Accepted 1/19
Went Green 2/1
Received DDD 2/4 for 2/7
Received 2/7
I filed using TT and had child tax credit.
Now for the wait on federal 😕
Filed same day
Received PATH on 1/31 so who knows when that will go through.
Good Luck Everyone! -
Yes it is! And yep that dam federal, it’s a lot easier to track on this page than the regular page..I try to write updates on this page so when next year comes I can see what happened cause I always forget lol
-
@Sam
I’m not going anywhere….yet.
Still stalking that actual deposit and then…
Federal….dun dun dunnnnnnnI must say….this is an awesome group this year!
-
Thanks sam and j b. Fingers crossed.
-
Gonna miss you J B!! Lol …update us when you receive your deposit
-
@ Courtney
I’m a pather. I filed 1/28, accepted 2/1. And went green I wanna say like 1/30 but maybe 2/1…no ddd yet for me either. They do update during day so maybe we’ll get lucky 🍀 🙏🏻 🤞
-
DDD 2/11!! Yayyyy
-
@Courtney
I am a PATH filer and updated today. So (now) I dont think that has any bearing on refunds. You should see an update by tomorrow. It appears they are updating daily.
Keep track with @Sam and see if you update the same day. -
Anyone who didnt update are you a pather? I filled the 26th accepted the 29th. Went green on 2/1. No ddd yet for me.
-
Anyone have it put on a turbo card before. It’s my first year having it on a turbo card
-
@tae
I know TT said they take the fees out of the federal, even if you get state first
-
Hmmm I requested direct deposit and they are sensing me a paper check. I wonder if something will happen to mejon
-
It seems like the early filers got an update, if I’m not mistaken…I filed 1/28 and still waiting, I’m hoping later on it’ll update or maybe tomorrow
Congrats J B, Teresa, and anyone else who got an update tho!! 🎉🍾
-
Well, here’s something strange. Like in have posted before, I had requested direct deposit of my refund. On last Friday, I checked wheres my refund. A paper check was mailed instead. I received it in mail on Monday the 4th (first day state claimed they would do refunds…guess they got that wrong). But here is the kicker…yesterday my WMR updated again and said my refund would be direct deposited to my account on 2/7. Low and behold, it was deposited today into my bank. So now I get to call DOR and figure out how to give them back what they issued me in error. Never before have I had this happen. Received my refund twice. Once via direct deposit…once during paper check. Crazy. Good Ole Massachusetts for ya!
-
DDD for 2/11!
-
@Teresa
I’m psyched…obviously lol
For me it always takes an extra day or 2 to show in my account…so now I’m even more curious when yours shows lol.@Sam
Noooooooooooooooo! Really???????? Tomorrow at the latest. That’s what we said last night in our “positivity plea” it just may be working. -
updated this morning to a letter being sent for additional information
-
This AM , I updated , but it said a letter was being sent to explain what additional information was needed 🤦🏻♀️🤦🏻♀️🤦🏻♀️ come on!!
-
@Teresa
When I check Mass WMR It says DDD of 2/11/19So heres a recap, so far, for my State
01/22/19 State efiled02/01/19 MassTaxConnect “Accepted”/Amount Shown in Green/Recrived email from H&R return was accepted.
02/07/19 MassTaxConnect Amount now in black. Mass WMR shows DDD for 2/11/19. Changed occurred between 12AM and 6:20AM
-
@ JB yessssss happy for you. Thank the lord. I bet the money will be in bank account today or tomorrow I never hear of a Monday deposit
-
Dam am I the only one who didn’t update? Hopefully I will later 😭 I’m so sad now
-
@ Teresa
MEEEEEEEEE TOOOOOOOOOOOOOO -
Quick question does anyone know if H&R Block will take their fees out of your state if it comes first cuz I elected to take it out on my federal not my state but if the state comes first do they take their fees?
-
My thing is black and zero!!!!!!!!! Since 6am this morning. Yay ahaha anyone else
-
@ Jamie
I know someone else mentioned they choose direct deposit but got sent a check also
-
Filled 1/28, accepted 2/1, no updates for me yet 😞…balance still in green and wmr still has same message 😭
-
Seems like people are getting sent a check and bot a direct deposit
-
This is crazy i filed 1/24 amount is still in green hopefully it will update later tody or tomorrow for a ddd I’m always waiting mad long to get a refund back
-
Anyone else say paper check but was supposed to be sent direct deposits
-
Yeah I got a paper check to even though I said direct deposit. I wonder why paper check
-
Filed 1/24
Accepted 2/1
Updated this morning to paper check issued 2/8 despite opting for direct deposit -
Also- filed 1/28. State accepted 2/1. Balance appeared green on 2/3… Balance to $0/WMR update on 2/7
-
Yay!!! DDD for 2/11!!
-
I just went from Green to $0 balance at 5:13 AM. Checked WMR and DOR says DD issue for Feb 11… Last year they said Feb 9 (which was a Friday) and it hit my account on Monday Feb 12 , three days after like every year… So I’m thinking I’ll have it hit on the 14th…. Though looking at my past bank statements it’s hit my account on a Monday the past 4 years- so maybe I’ll actually get it on the day they say this year? I’m not going to assume that thought-out if I had to bet my entire refund on it if say it’s coming to me on the 14th since it ALWAYS hits my account 3 days after the DOR claims it was deposited
-
@fpu I filed around 18th or 19th
-
Yay, did went into my account this morning!
-
@angela when did you file
-
Yeah did went into my account this morning!
-
Welp hopefully some updates later or something Friday !
-
@ Arthur. Google ma where’s my refund. Or mass connect and input your info you will see your updates
-
@ ash. Nope no money no updates here
@ Arthur path is for people that claimed child tax credits that refund is held longer green on massconnect means the amount they will refund. When it’s in black with a zero means they have sent out the refund
-
Im new to this whats a pather, where do i find ddd and whats green and black mean filled tue first accepted the second
-
Has anyone got a deposit yet ?
-
So my refund has been green for like 5 days on MA connect at 1425$ and now checking it updated to green at 1555$ ? I’m kind of confused
-
I Filed on 1/24, got accepted 2/1 and have a green balance on mass taxconnect. Waiting for a deposit. I will let you all know when something happens. Thanks for all your updates.
-
Last year my husband and I got our state refund before it ever updated on mass tax connect. We checked everyday and nothing . Then my husband said the state deposited the check today I said no the status still said processing!.2 days later the status finally changed on mass tax connect and on that same day two days after we got a notification from H&R Block that Massachusetts had deposited our refund so it is possible to get it before it changes on the website . Last year also took longer to get it but I remember having to go back to H&R Block to sign the paper because they couldn’t even file it because Massachusetts was not excepting until late last year and we used to have our mass taxes back within a week until last year we got in around the same time we got the federal in the middle of February
-
@Kenyatta
This is definitely frustrating. I have also had same filing status for the last 7 years and have never received state an later than 12 business days after return was transmitted.
A few of us here also had a DDD of 2/9 for last year.
I’m hoping for an update by Friday.Keep us posted.
-
Yrs you can view the periods of your tax returns and mines for this year is just highlighted in green no date yet when you click on it but for last year it was issues on the 9th so I dont kno why its taking so long to update now same children for 10 years nothing has changed back in the day you use to get your money a week after you filed now all these damn tax laws and path acts is killing us people
-
@TCS
Typically you will see a direct deposit date before it hits your account When using the Massachusetts where’s my refund tool. -
I know last year I filed early and didn’t get my refund until March
And I don’t think I had a 1095 for health insurance, I have mass health
And sometimes on masstaxconnect your balance will go to $0 meaning your getting a deposit, but I wanna say I got my refund before I got an update/ddd last year
-
Are you you’all saying we’re going to be able to see DDD on masstaxconnect before they deposit the money?
-
Heres another question…
To those that got acceptance on 2/1 (or filed before 1/28) did anyone have a 1095-A for your Health Insurance?
I did…wondering if that may have anything to do with the delay?My quest to figure this out will not end unless we all get the same DDD lol.
🤯🤔 -
To those that filed before opening day of 1/28 do you think it’s possible us early filers got resquensed to the back of the line???
-
I’m hoping we see something by Friday ! I filed 1/28 & got accepted on turbo tax for 2/1 , so I’m hoping Friday
-
Yes! Yes we better see something by Friday’ I’m going crazy and I need my money!
I swear I check my bank account ma connect and wmr like 5 times a day hahahah I know federal will come mid to late February which is fine but I really wanted my state before -
@Sam @Teresa
Positive thinking. I like it! Let’s be specific and out it out into the universe.Yes, like Sam and Teresa said, everyone who filed prior to 2/1 will receive a DDD no later than this Friday, February 8, 2019.
(This is an unofficial statement.)
😉😂
-
@JB
Yeah it’s pointless last year I messaged them several times and they never directly answered the questions. It’s like all generic reply’s. They are no help whatsoever. Let’s pray we all get updated with info by Friday! If nothing by Friday then I think it will be the end of the month BS -
It seems like they look and worked on some of the people who filed on 1/28 so I think we’ll get an update tomorrow, definitely this week
-
Well…I wouldn’t bother asking anything via Mass Tax Connect. Heres the response I received when asking about refund timing…
SPOILER ALERT: NOT HELPFULReceived: Wednesday, Feb 6, 2019 2:16:18 PM
Subject: RE: Refund TimingDear Taxpayer,
Thank you for your inquiry to the Massachusetts Department of Revenue.
The filing season opened January 28th so this is the schedule we have listed below for refunds.
Refunds on E-filed returns can take 4-6 weeks and on paper filed returns 8-10 weeks.
Please let us know if we can be of any further assistance. If you have additional questions, please provide a telephone number where we may contact you.
Thank you for using MassTaxConnect
-
I usually get a Friday date for DDD. This is the first time I received a Thursday date
-
Oooh…I knew I had a legit question butnkep forgetting and posted nonsense instead lol.
Do we know if the “time” starts based on the date return was received or when received the Return Accepted/went green on MTC? This is the first year I did not receive MA Acceptance the day I filed.
Thanks all
-
Filed 1/28… accepted 2/2…. checked MTC this morning and my amount in green went up $154… strange but ok, at least someone touched my account. Hoping for a DDD before the week is out, fingers crossed
-
@ j b
Yeah up until a few years ago I used to get my state back in like a week…mass used to be super fast…also in prior years I would always update in the evening 6-7pm hopefully we all see movement this week -
Idk how many times MTC updates but I know it’s more than once a day because last year I remember i checked early in the morning around 8:30 and didn’t had a ddd and like 3 hours later I checked and had a date for 2-9. I thought we al were gonna had a ddd today especially the ones that we filed 1-28 and before 😕
-
I’m trying to reconsider everything so if the amount is in green does that mean that it is still in processing or has already been processed?
P.S. Can someone who works for DOR/MTC please jump on this thread and answer our questions lmao.
I’m about to drive to DOR and show up like…what is going on? Do you need some help? I mean I can process my own and a few others for free. I’m a fast learner and LOVE data entry!
Thanks,
The Impatient Filers from IGMR -
@J B
Ya I been checking like crazy lol…I tried finding out if they update throughout the day or what time but couldn’t find out anything…and lmao that would be a great message to send
@michelle
If they told you you would see it this week or next week, which is possible, hopefully us that filed before and were accept 2/1 will see it this week. -
@Sam
Im starting to become delusional at this point. I should probably be working instead of stalking this forum lmao. But this is way more fun!
But hey… feel free to send a message today. We all want to know what they say. I didnt realize we can message them through that. I’ll go copy and paste my “Yeezy” thing and see what they say lolol j/k.On another note…
How many times per day has everyone been checking MTC and calling?
I’m averaging about once per hour for each lol. -
I filed on 2/1 and was accepted 2/2 and checked for the first time today. All green. I called and they said that was what they owed me and I would see it this week or next. Sound right to anyone?
-
@JB
Lol 😂…I was just going to send a message through the masstaxconnect page, I’ll wait until tomorrow
Ya mine went up to, I’m not complaining lol…but your right someone looked at it and probably did the double check, hopefully that means we’ll get an update now
-
That’s weird, mine went up but still in green…at least that means they looked and worked on them, hopefully we’ll wake up to an update/ddd
-
@emily i just looked at mine and it went up and still in green….Maybe that means it was double checked? At least there is someone looking at it
-
@Sam
Do itttttttttt…maybe if we all call at the same time and cry they will hit “ok”
But sir, like I realllllllyyyyy need to get my nails done. And my daughter really wants some Yeezys. Please kind sir. Help a sister out. Lol. -
looked at mine today and the amount went down and still green :-/
-
@GainGreene
Gotchya…lol. just trying to lighten things up a bit before we all go nuts.
I just went through my statements for the last 4 years to see if there was ANY pattern.
10-12 business from return received to DDD. My bank takes 3 days to post for some reason. Sovereign stinks…sorry. Sahntahndeeeeeer lol. -
@Joe
I used TT to file, I just use masstaxconnect to see if anything has changed
-
@Alfrado…if it’s in green it’s still processing, once it’s in black and $0 that means it’s getting refunded…the website is https://mtc.dor.state.ma.us/mtc/_/ …you can log on and see balance, send messages, see if letters are being sent, etc…
I’m tempted to send message and be like so what’s going on, you think you can choose me and hit the ok/refund button lol 😂
-
So last year my Dad was Feb 9th but got my money on Feb 7th I filed Feb 1st last year. So hopefully I update tonight
-
@ J B
No he didn’t say what was considered “larger” mine was 1700 so anything above that we know for sure is considered larger lol…mine is only $700 this year non pather…last year I was a pather… I was accepted by state on the 4th…I’ll keep you updated we’ll see if I get it quicker then others that are pathers
-
I cannot seem to file my refund on the masstaxconnect website. Anyone else having that problem?
-
@czarface: fingers crossed
-
@sam if thats the case then they can randomly pick me next lol!
-
I bet most of us will see somthing tomorrow morning. Thats my hunch
-
I don’t think there’s any pattern..they are just randomly picking it seems like
-
No real rhyme or reason to this. So frustrating
-
I mean that’s what the rep told me obviously there can always be other reasons someone’s refund gets delayed…but last year there were people getting their refunds pretty fast and mine was taking forever when I called that was the reason I got
-
@GainGreene
Hmmm…interesting. thabks for sharing that…it does make more sense.
Did the rep happen to mention what amount is considered to be a “larger” refund? Just curious where myself and the others may fall llwith this one lol.
I’ve never had an issue with state and always had a DDD by now. Super frustrated just like everyone else.We make sure to file early but then it gets held back. They claim EIC and ACTC have nothing to do with it yet it seems like most filers with those credits haven’t received a DDD yet.
Annoying!
-
My son’s is only 224.00 he still hasn’t gotten a ddd yet. That’s a tiny itty bitty refund
-
@Teresa I agree last year I got mine made late as well…last year I spoke with a cool rep @ DOR and he told me that the smaller refunds are getting pushed out quickly…the bigger state refunds (mine was 1700 last year) are getting basically double checked. I would say the majority of people getting bigger refunds are pathers
-
@jade: ok, that’s what I was thinking. Mine always updated after 7. We just might update tonight. Last year the 7th. Was a Wednesday
-
I think it wasn’t until later in the day.
-
@jade: do you remember if yours updated last year by morning or at night on the 7th. I feel like mine didn’t update till night time
-
What does it mean if your refund balance is green or black and on which website do you check that information?
-
I’m in southie
-
Ya no DDD here yet snd i filed on 1/17 with TT and was accepted on 2/1. Still green got thr amount. My fed had a 2/6 DDD and it has not gone in neither.
-
No change for me, no ddd…only change was that when I logged into Masstaxconnect the balance in green is more than it was originally…so gonnna take that as a good sign that they looked at my return and obviously worked on it and it’s more money…hopefully they release or give me a ddd soon
-
Where is everyone from? West Wareham here.
-
I called as well. Says it was received Jan 17th please allow up to 60 days to process Hope we all see updates soon congrats to those that have been lucky to get their ddd
-
@Teresa mine updated with a DDD 2/4. I called the number, I haven’t checked online.
-
I filed 1/19, Green balance since Friday. Last year I had a DDD on 2/7 for 2/9
-
@jen I’m the same as you! Same job 14years. Same kids filed early last year too and didn’t get till march 12th!! I filed 1/17 like u this year and I have a bad feeling we will wait till March 12th again. I swear they hold like path does! Something is off! The years before path I always got state back first within a week.
-
@ JB hahah! I believe it!
-
@Jen
I posted a reply to you yesterday saying basically “We have same info/dates forbthe last few years but I got my DDD (last year) on 2/9.”
I’m beginning to the March 12th is the reality for this year lol. But I refuse to accept it lmao.
Trying to figure out patterns is now pointless.Conspiracy theory: They send reps to sites such as this and find out who is constantly posting and checking their status. Those people then have to wait another 6 weeks…just for fun. Lol
-
I filed 1/17 accepted the 29th. Green since Monday still no DDD. Last year I didn’t get State until 3/12 which is ridiculous seeing I’ve had all the same information for 5+ years. Job, kids, address, etc.
-
No ddd for me! 😢 I’m thinking they don’t go by order in which received. Maybe they just random select.
-
@jade when did you file/accepted? I’m 1/26-accepted 2/1, turned green 2/4. No change since
-
Still no DDD 😭
-
No DDD for me yet.
-
I just logged into my masstax connect and it shows my refund $342 more! They must have worked on it but it’s still in green. I tried where’s my refund with the old amount and it’s still saying the generic message, going to check after 7 and see if it changes
-
@Teresa yes i have child tax credits. It was updated Monday 2/4.
-
Just an update. My sister received an update on DOR this morning saying her refund will be deposited by 2/7. She has green dot card. She received her deposit alert at 9:05pm tonight that her state refund is in her account.
-
Did my after 7PM check to see if I have moved from green to black…nada.
Heres to hoping it hits tomorrow sometime.I swear…next year, I’m not going to bother filing before fed and state opens for processing. No point whatsoever.
-
This blows. I really hope I have an update tomorrow. Any update will do at this point
-
Filed Jan , 28th accepted the 1st still waiting now , has anyone got a ddd & file same time as me ?
-
@zfoxy1 did u have child credits? When did u update with the ddd. Today??
-
Mass taxes accepted 2/1 got a DDD for thurs 2/7.
-
@sam okay thanks
-
@Amy e place
Yeah I’m pretty much done with H&R R Block the only reason why I went to them in the past two years is because I had lottery winnings and I like to be exact with no issues but at the end of the day I could have did it myself on TurboTax and paid 150 instead of paying 338 I remember when I used to get my state taxes 3 to 5 business days after I filed it’s funny though cuz they don’t wait to take out taxes from your check but you got to wait to get them back all is well it eventually get here when it get here there’s nothing we can do but play the waiting game I just hate if any of us would get caught up in any foolishness if the government shuts down again on the 15th try not to speak in existence but I like to be realistic -
@Teresa
I’m thinking that if everyone who was accepted and green as of 2/1 does not have DDD listed tomorrow, their call center is going to be on firrrreeeee! -
@Teresa
Not sure about you but I used HR. I couldn’t transmit state until Fed was accepted. I’m EITC and ACTC.
Fed accepted on 1/22 and the I transmitted State.
State Received on 1/22
Accepted also on 2/1 and been green on MassTC since 2/1.
For Last year, same situation but I received State DDD 2/9 (in acct on 2/12), Fed DDD and in act on 2/22. -
@ soda Pop congratulations that gives me hope. When did u update to ddd?
-
I filed 1/28. I have EIC and child credits. DDD 2/7
-
I filed 1/17 fed accepted 1/22 path 1/26. State accepted 2/1. Amount in green says accepted 1/17. Even though they claim they don’t hold state for child credits I think they do!!! Years before I always got my state in a weeks time-since path started I get state late after federal so I do believe they hold it until fed releases last year go my federal 2/16 and state came 3/12!! I think federal will come first again this year. So mich for their post saying they are issuing refund 2/4 I would have been first to get it since I filed early. Lies I tell ya lies ..
-
@tae , that’s weird…I was just saying I didn’t get mine till the 12th last year and now that I think about it last year I used h nr
-
@sam I filed 1/28 got path message 1/30.
-
@gaingreene… I don’t think there’s really a pattern yet…some people who were accepted the 28th got a ddd while others who filed before then are still waiting…and some people said there thing was green for 3 days and they got a ddd..mine has been green for 5 days and I’m still waiting so I don’t know 🤷♀️
-
People who got there refund or a ddd, did your federal update to path message or update at all? Just trying to see if there’s a pattern lol…I got accepted 2/1, don’t think anyone who got accepted 2/1 got a ddd yet, and I’m still waiting for federal to update to path message….I’m hoping my state updates tomorrow 🤞
-
My MA refund was accepted on Jan 16th and I still do not have a ddd. The DOR site says they started sending out refunds yesterday.
-
Hey how soon have people been getting dd I filled state yesterday @ like 3….just checked masstaxconnect and I already have my green amount
-
@tae thanks for the info but still no letters showing up but thanks
-
When you go on mass tax correspondence hit view all unread mail it should show your letter there unless it was issue today it wouldn’t show up until after 7 p.m. today or tomorrow morning after 7 a.m.
-
I was just looking and I didn’t get my refund from State until March 12 last year. I wonder why that would be? I slightly remember it taking forever.
-
@czarface: I feel you on that one lol
-
Rosa maybe isn’t posted yet? I don’t know honestly I’ve never gotten a letter from them so I’m not sure how that works.
-
@ Ida just did and there is nothing showing all it says is no unread letters and no unread messages
-
I’ve never wanted to see zeros so bad in my life lol!
-
Rosa did you looked under correspondences?
-
@Emily
Go to Mass Wheres my refund and enter your info.
If your your stuff is already processed and ready to go, you will have the date of issue.
If no DDD, the you may just be accepted or in processing.
Hope that helps. -
Emily if you google masstax connect you see everyone talking bout it you’ll find it. You can also google where’s my refund Ma and you’ll also find it. Google is a powerful tool girlfriend lol
-
the only place it says I have a letter coming is on the wheres my refund page for the state
-
@Kenyatta I have an account on tax connect but I am not seeing the letter, am I looking in the wrong place?
-
can someone tell me where to find the dd
-
If u make an account on the tax connect can can see tge letter before it is mailed to you and then call if that helps
-
@radshackhirl77 that makes sense cause I changed from bank to papercheck. Thanks!!!
-
@rosa: it happened to me 2 years ago also because I changed banks. And this year I changed from card.com to chime and I have a feeling they’re going to hit me with the i.d. verify again also.
-
@happytaxseason77 thanks so much for the info feeling a little better. but its so weird I got that same letter 2 years ago they are gonna do it to me again that stink
-
@rosa: sounds like it could possibly be an i.d. verify letter. You refund amount will remain green until the refund is issued. If it is i.d. verify its very quick one you get the letter. The phone system saying your info is incorrect is very odd though. You should get a rep on the phone and find out why
-
HI guys, has anyone done the wheres mt refund for massachusetts, cause mine says a letter was sent out but on tax connect my refund is just green and there is no other info. but when I call the refund hotline they say my information is incorrect to try again. I filed and was accepted on 2/1 and my amount is showing green in massconnect I have chilld tax
thanks
-
I have a green balance but where is the ddd located?
-
Yea i don’t think it matter who filed first and what not. I was accept it 2-1 filed 1-28 and still waiting for ddd. Just like with the federal returns I see people that filed way before I did,still waiting for the path message and I got the path message 3 days after I filed. Go figure!
-
Congrats to those who got a ddd today!!! I remember last year I checked early morning and didn’t had a date then checked again around 10am and have a 2-9 ddd. Here’s hoping we get more ddd tomorrow!!!
-
Just to give some people not update my sister just text me with a screenshot of her direct deposit date for the 8th she filed on the 29th was accepted on the 30th she does have child tax credit I find that hilarious I’m starting to think that it doesn’t matter when you filed or when you are as accepted it just depends on who’s working on your case to approve and send out your refund cuz there’s still a person behind the computer of pressing the button to approve your refund could be sent out I’ll check back in tomorrow and give an update if I’m still green or in black 0s
-
@tae
Sounds like we have a similar situation.I’m curious of those who received Acceptance Update on 2/1…has anyone received DDD yet?
-
Same thing here even though I was accepted on the 1st when I go on the State website or call where’s my refund still says that they received it on a 23rd and they’re processing it I’m usually not so antsy but due to everything that’s going on if the government shuts down again on the 15th that will slow everything down..
-
I been in green since the 1st. Where’s my refund said they received it Jan 30th and I got the email from TT saying it was accepted on 2/1…hoping I’ll be in the next update, hopefully in the morning for a ddd of fri 2/8
-
Last year i got the email from hr block on the 2nd and got my refund the 9th
-
I filed on the 23rd but for some reason I didn’t get accept it until the first I filed with H&R Block I was going to apply for the early refund but I was like no I can wait but now that I think about it last year I filed on the 28th got accepted on the 28th but I’ll even get my state refund into the 12th of March three weeks after I got my federal and the year before that I got it March 2nd two and a half weeks after my federal I’m starting to think it has something to do with H&R Block cuz everybody else that files with TurboTax or other tax companies they always seem to get their state within a week or two or filing I don’t know State sometimes do there own thing I guess they issue refunds to who they want to when they want-to however they want to. I do have earned income and child tax credit but they always say State doesn’t hold your refund but sometimes I think they do because for some reason in the past two years I always get it late
-
Angela and Czarface: went green for like 3 days in the amount of your refund. Then turned black to reflect a zero balance. That is when it was done. Angela, the green we are referring to is on masstaxconnect. At the upper left corner below your name. Showing a balance. Green means a credit is due, black is credit issued or a zero balance and red indicates a debt owed.
-
I’m not sure what the green is everyone talks about I never saw that, but as of today it says I will get direct deposit on the 7th
-
Anyone with a DDD, how long were you green before it changed?
-
I’m glad I’m not the only one that filed the 17th and still no ddd
-
Teresa, my understanding is that the system updates after 7pm. So i would assume you wont see an update till morning. But if expecting a deposit, you could have it anytime after 7pm even if your institution were to deposit early.
-
@teresa yes I had child tax credits, I was super surprised that my state went this quick. I check last year I didn’t get mine deposited till March!! I didn’t have much hope this year but was shocked(and happy) when I woke up this morning.
My daughter filed hers on the 30th was accepted on 1/31 (used TT also) but she has no DDD yet -
@Anne did you have child credits? I agree I sometimes think it does affect state? Who knows..
@ JB thank you hope so! Does anyone know does it update all day! Or just mornings? -
I filed with TT on 1/28, was accepted on 2/1…has been in green ever since I filed…still in green, thinking maybe update tomorrow with a ddd of 2/8…in past years that is how it’s gone
-
@Anne
Just wondering if you had EITC or ACTC?
I know it’s not supposed to have any bearing on State refunds, but I’m curious.@Jen & @Teresa…I vote that you update tomorrow.
Wow, it’s like a baby pool. Who wants in? Lol.
-
@teresa I filed with TT on 1/18 on TaxConnect it shows accept on 1/19, my balance has been in green since the 29th and this morning it is back to a black zero and said DDD for 2/7.
-
@jonlaco12345…they will deposit early
-
I also filed 1/17 still green! I was hoping for a ddd this week! Last year I had to wait tilll March 12th and I filed Jan /23! Praying it’s not the same this year
-
Filed 1/17, amount still in green.
-
Anne what day did u file or get accepted. Anyone who already recieved a ddd what day did u get accepted thanks
-
Does the state actually deposit on the 7th as my sisters shows, or do they send them early like the federal? She has green dot card and always gets payroll and such 2 days early. Just asking for her. 2 days early would be today at some point, so she was wondering.
-
No DDD for me yet.
-
Wow, super surprised how quickly things moved this year.
Got my DDD of 2/7 -
My refund showed in mail today.
-
@jb: I’m fairly certain that it’s daily. Paper checks however I think only go out 2 days a week.
-
Does anyone know how often MA will issue refunds? Daily, weekly etc.
2/4 Update: I’m still green too lol -
@B call the IRS OFFSET hotline 800-304-3107 there are 2 options 1-2 I usually check both for any offsets. My son also has offset. Bunker hill college. last year state took all his refund but didn’t touch the federal.
-
How can we find out if our refund will be intercepted? I think I owe a community college
-
Where do you see the ddd?
-
Ya I was think dd Friday too, and hopefully get it sooner with the prepaid cards
-
Filed 1/28 got accepted on 2/2 and today got the update on mass tax connect. Last year I got my ddd for 2/9 but for the first time it wasn’t in my account the day of ddd but it was on my account by 2/12. I’m thinking a lot of us are gettinng ddd for this Friday. Hopefully.
-
In my experience it has always updated on Monday to show its processing on MA tax connect then Wednesday’s I’ll get a DDD and it ends up being on Thursdays I see the money in my account.
-
I’m finally in the green also.
-
So today Mass tax connect finally has my amount in green. How long before u think till I update to black 0 that will mean it’s been sent correct?
-
Looking back at last year all of my dates were about the same as far as accepted and when i filed so if all goes well i should have mine by friday. Come out to about 11-12 business days from my filing date.
-
@amy: you’re welcome
-
Accepted 1/27 and still green 🙄 let’s go DOR
-
Sweet, thank you @radshackgirl77
-
@amy: seeing it in green just confirms that they’re working on it. Once it turns to 0 in black that is when it’s completed and being issued to you
-
It wasn’t giving me the option. I just created another account and made it email authentication. I am surprised it let me. Anywho, logged in and have a balance in green, whats that mean? Did they finish my return and just not release it yet?
-
@amy: have you tried having it sent to your email instead
-
Getting super annoyed here. I can’t even sign into my masstax connect because I need an authentication code, which it says it will send to my phone. However, I haven’t received it yet. Anyone else with this issue?
-
received 1/22. Nothing yet
-
@jonlaco12345: that’s good news. I’m hoping for an update tonight
-
Sam, yes my mass tax connect updated to a zero balance today removing my refundable credit amount. The regular DOR wheres my refund says still processing and to allow 4 to 6 weeks to process. I looked at it and it shows a paper check issued on 2/1 and provided me a check number. Called them to double check and they confirmed a check was mailed on Friday for my refund.
-
Jonlaco 12345…you didn’t know they issued it Friday until today? Did something update?
Also I just got a text from [email protected] saying authentication code requested for “John Smith” . And gave me a code but I never requested one and haven’t gotten anything asking for a code, very strange. I messaged them on masstaxconnect and sent screenshot of the text asking them if they really sent it and what it’s about. 🤔
-
My r ed fund was as issued Friday. Strange tho, because they say they would begin issuing refunds today. However, instead of direct depositing it, they issued me a paper check so now gonna watch for mail over the next few days. At least that’s good. Now to wait until Path falls off so I can get my federal in a few weeks.
-
My return was accepted 1/19 via TT
Shows green on tax connect so hoping for some movement. 🤞 -
Filed 1/30. Accepted two days later and finally showing processing on masstaxconnect. Hoping for this week 🙌🏼
-
No changes for me :( I was accepted 2/1 but I have been able to see it of Massconnect and on where’s my refund ever since I was accepted. Was hoping it’d have a ddd or something lol
Everyone keep each other updated, they said they were going to start issuing refunds today so I’m curious if they really do
-
Dewy- I just got that too. Hopefully some movement this week!!
-
I had movement today. I was accepted on Thursday although I filed Jan 24th. I finally can see activity logging nito Massconnect. I shows my refund amount in green now. When I enter my info into the refund tool thing it says ” You return was received on Jan 24th and is being processed… etc…
-
@czarface: after 7pm
-
@radshackgirl77 (aka: Erika K) is that 7 am or pm?
-
@Sam
I’m with ya! Champs…again! Such a good year so far with Sports! Bruins and Celts need to get on the train. -
Woo Hoo!! Super Bowl champs again!!
And ya the system updates at 7 and then depending on the card can deposit anytime
-
@jonlaco12345: the system updates typically after 7
-
Does anyone know what time during the day mass makes their deposits? Just wondering if I should check in am to see if I am part of the first batch or later in the day. Not expecting it, but you never know.
-
Come on Pats!!! Ugh
-
@Czarface
Oh gotcha.
Honestly, I have no idea. I have not come across one yet for MA yet. -
@jb. It was accepted already. Must just be it just hasnt updated yet? Any idea on what there udate schedule is?
-
@Czarface
Just a thought but did you file (yourself) with H&R?
If so,I know I had to go back in after Fed was accepted to transmit state. -
@Czarface
I also filed on the 22nd. Just got acceptance 2/1.
Check again tomorrow. I’m sure everything is fine.I’m beginning to wonder if there is a limit on the number of returns that can be accepted/approved/givenDDD in a single batch…for both fed and state.
Please keep us updated. -
@JB i filed the 22nd
-
@Czarface
It can take a few business days to update.
It did for me and a bunch of others. When did you file state? -
Anyone else accepted but not seeing anything on the ma tax connect? Its also saying on the refund status that theres no record of mine.
-
@JB:
Ya that’ll be nice to get a DDD tomorrow, just having a date will lessen the anxiety a little bit…I use a prepaid card so I normally get it 2 days before.
And ya it’s a relief they said they aren’t holding until mid Feb like the irs is. And yes it is a nice hold over
-
@Sam
Hopefully their statement “issuing refunds” that means they will be setting up and sending DDDs tomorrow?
I dont think I have read that anyone has a DDD for State yet.
I use Santander and never receive my state deposit the same date that DOR lists as DDD. Usually takes 2 or 3additional business days.
Whereas Fes, I get it by 2am on the date they list as DDD.But hey at least state doesn’t have a hold like the IRS does for us EITC and ACTC filers.
State is a nice holdover until Fed come for us lower income peeps.
-
@radshackgirl77: I just seen that too!! I would think you would have a DDD if you’d be getting it Monday but idk…I just hope to have it asap..I really need this money right now
-
There’s an update on mass. Dept. Of revenue Facebook page stating that they’ll begin issuing the first refunds on Monday
-
There is an update on dept. Of revenues Facebook page. It says they plan on issuing the first refunds this Monday
2/4 (tomorrow) fingers crossed. -
Strange. My state return was accepted and began processing on 1/28. Have the screenshot of it just to time it out for future reference. Today I checked it (not expecting any movement as over the weekend). My accepted date changed to 1/29. Retarded.
-
@Joslyn That’s some great info.
The funny thing is that when I call it check MassTaxConnect it says my return was received in January 22nd. I know MA didnt start actually doing anything until the 28th, but hopefully it will move faster?Heres to hoping we all have Deposits or DDDs this week!
-
@radshackgirl77: thank you! 😊
@jonlaco12345: ya I was already accepted, actually showed up online right away. I just wanted the number for future reference and knew someone here knew it, didn’t know what to google and didn’t want to keep trying different numbers when I can just ask here
-
Sam, it is just the mass for number. You can Google search it. However, mine update edd as accepted on website before the phone line. Was accepted 1/28 but didnt have any info available until 2/1. No movement since then, but I know whe they do updates on Fridays, it doesnt show up until SundayPM so I’ll check tomorrow morning and see if any change. Should either have refund this week coming or at least an update either way. Due to being and ID theft victim twice, I expect to not actually receive my refund until fully verified, but since I had a pin to file federal maybe it’ll move along smoother.
-
@sam: 6178876367
-
Does anyone know the number you can call and it’ll say your refund is accepted, etc? Sometimes that updates before the website
-
It was accepted yesterday, I received a text from H&R Block. Mass connect still has no info, I will just wait it out, sometimes I don’t even update till I already received my refund. I have just had it pending before this year.
-
@jess and @stacey
I used HRBlock too…took over a week for acceptance. Maybe they are accepting in batches? It seems like a lot of people that filed week of 1/20 were accepted on 2/1.I had to wait for my federal to be accepted before I could efile state…did you double check to make sure it transmitted?
-
For Mass refund…
efiled 1/22
Accepted 2/1
I can see it on MassTaxConnect with the 1/22 submitted/received dateSo between 1/22 and 1/31, when I checked online or called the phone #, it was saying no records matching info found (or something like that). So for those that are experiencing the same, try not to worry too much it may take over a week to show. It happened to me too. They got it, just takes a while to update.
Hopefully I will be getting a DDD for next week sometime.
Last year for me it took 12 business days after I efiled.
Had a DDD of 2/9 and it cleared through bank (Santander) and was available on 2/13.Hoping for a similar timeline this year, but we all know things change…
Hopefully this helps others too.
-
Thank you. Here’s hoping for a quick deposit ☺☺
-
Accepted 1/28. Still processing. Will check Monday morning and see if any updates. Likely wont see anything change until 2/5. Possibly see DDD this week at some point.
-
@ Jennifer….idk if anyone has got deposits yet…I think people will prolly get a DDD on 2/5 and start seeing deposits between 2/6 and 2/8, depending on the card
-
Has anyone gotten direct deposit yet? Or a date for direct deposit?
-
I used TT and my state was accepted 2/1…it’s showing up on massconnect already…hopefully will see that black 0 in balance soon!! :)
-
@josh….does it show your refund amount anywhere? It will usually say credit, which will have your refund amount in black and then say balance with the refund amount in green….when the balance turns black and says 0 that means they are refunding the money
-
Same here accepted but not posted. Im guessing monday it’ll show up
-
My mass state was accepted this morning and is not showing on massconnect yet either.
-
My state was accepted yesterday evening but still not showing on masstaxconnect yet
-
I was accepted finally. I submitted on Jan 24th… It usually takes longer for my MA than Federal. I did have an offset last year so maybe that was why…
-
I filed using TurboTax on 1/18 and my MA state return was accepted 2/1
-
MA was accepted finally.
-
Hi how long after the state gets accepted will the direct deposit show up
Thanks k u -
I just got accepted right now and I filled on January 18th I checked the website and it showed 0 balance in black ?
-
I also filed with H&R Block on 1/5. As of right now my state still isn’t accepted. My Fiancé filed earlier today (w/ H&R Block) and his state was accepted an hour later.
-
Filed 1/27 but it still says pending. I used H&R block. I have never had an issue, usually accepted the same day.
-
Something really weird going on I file with H&R Block on the 23rd literally 5 minutes later my federal was accepted but I’m still trying to figure out what’s going on my state I know I’m not going to get anything back until after the 15th I’m not looking for that I’m looking for everything’s okay yes we accept your return I just find it really weird so I’m just going to have to go back to my tax preparer and ask them do she need to resubmit my state or something cuz it sure hasn’t gone through and even if every Jack’s it I mean fine I have to fix it but let me know that it’s either accepted or rejected and the fact that they don’t even have any record of it being sent is weird but I’ll keep an update and thank you guys for your updates
-
How long has it taken for all of your state returns to be accepted? I filed my state yesterday and usually its accepted by now and I’m still waiting to hear back. Looks like others have had delays too..
-
Acceptances can be any time of day. Deposit approvals are typically after 7pm
-
Acceptances can be any time of day. Deposit approvals agree typically after 7pm
-
Does the state only update overnight?
-
@JonLaco12345…you want it to show 0 on home screen
-
Shithead: they may have accepted it on the 20th, but they did not even begin processing state returns until the IRS opened on the 28th. They have done this the past couple years. So even tho accepted early, processing did not begin until the 28th. Likely some update early next week and DD next week.
-
MassTaxConnect:
Refund Status
Your return was received on 20-Jan-2019 and is being processed. Please allow four to six weeks for processing, if you filed your return electronically. If you mailed your return please allow eight to ten weeks for processing.It said it was received since the 20th? 🤔
-
So I found out that no matter how early you filed TT did not transmit to MA until the 28th. So I filed on the 17th but people who filed on the 27th or before got transmitted the same day as me.
-
Anyone seeing movement use TT
-
I have green balance showing my refund amount so hasn’t been paid yet. But when I look under manage returns, it shows it was filed and an amount showing my refund in green. Above that, there is a line item showing credit in black for the same amount. Does that mean it’s been completed and just waiting for the money in my account or am I still waiting to show the positive balance on the main masstaxconnect page to reflect zero?
-
@JonLaco12345
It always says 4-6 weeks, last year I was accepted 2/2 and got a DDD on 2/6 and in my bank on 2/9. I am hoping for the same pattern.
-
Checked on state this morning. Finally says they received it on 1/29 and it is being processed. Please allow 4 to 6 weeks. Took 3 days after they received it to update in system…4days after I filed. Ugh
-
Filed 1/26, fed accepted 1/28, ddd Monday for Fed TT still says pending for state :(
-
I filed mine with TT on 1/17 and it still has not been accepted. Not sure why if other people filed after are getting acceptance. Kinda strange
-
@jen….ya I stopped submitting early cause the last time I did it took longer for me to get my refund, but sometimes it doesn’t effect people so idk…this year I waited until the 28th, had to wait until then because that’s when I got the w2 but lol
-
Mine was accepted this morning too, hopefully it won’t take long for a DD date
-
I filed with turbo tax on 1/17, still nothing found for my MA return :(
-
Woo Hoo woke up to find that my ma was accepted. Finally some movement.
-
Filed 1/19, accepted at 1:48 this morning. Turbo tax shows transmitted in 1/28.
-
Mine was accepted at 5:15am this morning. Filed thru TT on 1/27
-
Nothing for me yet filed on 1/18
-
My son’s mass. Return was just accepted at 1:30 am. Mine hasn’t been accepted yet but hopefully it’s moving along
-
Filed 1/20 Fed accepted on 1/22
My refund just got accepted at 1:25am today. -
@candice: we’re they even able to see that you filed your return? It seems like they’re backwards this year
-
Filed on 1/18/19 my federal was accepted on 1/22/19 and my state hasn’t yet. I called mass dor and she said that it hasn’t been processed yet that’s why i can’t see anything yet. Never took this long for it to be accepted like how long is it going to take
-
Masstaxconnect says returnswill be excepted 5 to 7 business days after they are recieved which jan 28th is for anyone who filed before that date amd then returns will be issued in 1 to 2 weeks
-
On Jackson Hewitt, my stats just says in progress. In progress of what, sending to the state or in progress at the state? UGH.
-
@JonLaco12345: my turbotax account says the same thing. It was received on the 28th. Last year I filed 1/31, it was received by mass. On 2/3 (which was a saturday) then it was accepted that Monday 2/5. I had my refund on my card on 2/8. My son has his federal refund already and still no state acceptance. If it’s not accepted by tonight I might call in the morning
-
I submitted my state and federal returns on Jan 24 and have no movement on the state one yet. It usually doesn’t happen for a bit longer though so I am not concerned. My state one is usually a bit after the federal one.
-
Last year my state was accepted two days after my federal….my federal was accepted yesterday so thinking/hoping the state will be accepted tomorrow
-
Still not accepted either. I’m wondering if we will all see acceptance by this Friday. My tax preparer company sent me an email saying it was sent to Mass on 1/28 at 10:04am and to allow 3 to 5 days to check on acceptance. Today is day 3. So I guess we just wait till day 5.
-
Has anyone called and spoken to a rep?
-
Ya I’m still waiting to be accepted too
-
@jamie: you’re the first one so far that I’ve seen. Hopefully that means we’re moving along
-
My mass tax return got accepted today and I field on the 15
-
I sent a message through mass tax connect. They’re trying to say that don’t even see a return for me. But my turbotax efile says it was received by Massachusetts on the 28th at 9:02am but still not accepted. Doesn’t make sense
-
@kpu: for acceptance it’s anytime. For updates on approvals from my experience it updates typically after their closing hours. For the past few years I get an update for approval at around 7pm. Any day of the week
-
Does anyone know when the state updates? Is it overnight like fed??
-
Mine still says pending…i always have a really good experience with my mass tax return so im sure once things get moving everyone will get their returns in a timely manner. Good luck my fellow mass filers
-
I filed with eztaxreturn. I just logged into them to see if anything has changed. It says today that the irs has sent my mass tax return to the state and to allow 3 to 5 days to check back to see that Mass has accepted and confirmed receipt. This is an update from yesterday. Mass wheres my refund site still shows no return filed but screen is different than it was for me. Now shows info pertaining to time frames for efiled vs paper, quality control measures, etc. So maybe it has arrived to them and just was sitting on acceptance. We shall see.
-
I received this email from Mass DOR. Nit sure why our returns have not been accepted as of yet. Very strange!
Dear Taxpayer,
Thank you for your recent inquiry. The Massachusetts Department of Revenue opened for filing returns on January 28th.
Thank you for visiting our website,
The Massachusetts Department of Revenue
-
Same here. IRS accepted federal return. State still shows no info found for my state refund. So who knows. Usually Mass is quick. Maybe we will all see movement this week. My experience is that Mass processes quick. Usually within 3 days of showing in the system the money is in account. Will see if anything different this year. Good luck!
-
Im thinking either friday or Monday we will see some movement
-
*simple return
-
Nothing here yet. My son got his federal today (no credits or anything, some return) and still neither him or me has even gotten an acceptance from mass. I find it really weird. Hopefully we’ll get an acceptance soon
-
Any updates yet
-
My tax status via Jackson hewitt just says acknowelged, any idea what that means
-
So glad to hear I’m not the only one who hasent been accepted yet lol. This is why I always come back to this forum every year. Filed on the 17th via turbo tax, my federal said accepted on the 19th but my state still shows pending.
Let the waiting game begin -
My experience in the past with Massachusetts is it has always taken a while. As far as I can tell, nobody in MA has had their E-file accepted yet. If you filed before the 28th it really doesn’t matter how far before the 28th you filed. It is all the same. The “clock” doesn’t start ticking til the first day of tax season which Mass has indicated will be the same as the Federal day that being Jan 28th…. So… patience is key with taxes. If you get too stressed Murphy’s law will kick in and you will get resequenced or something and it will take even longer…
-
I filed on the 17th and am still waiting for an acceptance email.
-
Hopefully we’ll at least get an acceptance by tomorrow
-
Still waiting for my state to be accepted…
I filed on the 19th and have been patiently waiting for two weeks 😕
-
I always get my state taxes within a week of filing it just opened today so probably by tomorrow we will get accepted and it will move right along. Fingers ctossed
-
Hoping for acceptance from Massachusetts today. Last year I filed on 1/31 didn’t get a state acceptance till the 5th but had my state refund by the 8th. Hoping for the same turn around this year. Fingers crossed
-
I usually get my Federal First. Filed via Taxact Jan 24 Fed accepted Jan 25 no activity on State yet….
-
Filed the 24th. IRS accepted same day. Still waiting on ma… on the same boat as everyone!
-
Yeah I messaged threw masstaxconnect and got a response saying they will start accepting and processing the 28th so its info right from the source. My mass normally always comes before federal
-
That’s kind of what I figured. I just hoped there would at least be an acceptance by now.
-
@joslyn thank you for the update! I have been waiting for the email that says my return was accepted.
-
I found out today they are not starting processing until the 28th ..
-
Yes same for me
-
@joslyn: right here. Filed on the 17th no acceptance from Massachusetts yet.
-
Any mass filers on here yet for this year
-

Thank you -

-

-
@samantha we’re on the same boat. I’m getting really concerned
-

-
@Heather Anything yet so far? We have same ddd and same card, I still have not gotten mine yet
-
DDD for today after I’D verifying…3:40pm and still nothing. (Green dot card)
-
Anybody get there deposit today with DDD of 3/29? Still waiting for mine
-
Did you ever get that letter Momo?
-
@missy numbers in blacks equals refund deposit
-
Finally. I got all black zeros. I got a DDD of March 30th. Such a process but finally! I filed 2/4 and accepted 2/5. I also contacted the DOR a few times via email and phone to find out and the last call last night the nice gentleman said he sees it was accepted and would try and push it to go faster and yay! Today I have a DDD. Be persistent. Call email and Check your account more then once a day to see updates. Good Luck everyone.
-
Did my pin verification on Friday, amount disappeared and turned black and checked the generic return page and I have DDD of 3/29! Finally, now just waiting on my federal still
-
Missy. When it goes from green to black all o’s that means you should have a ddd. Direct deposit date.
-
why did my mtc account go from the pic number in green to zeros in black???? someone pleas help me
-
@Laura
Told me the same exact thing. Still waiting for this letter though :/ -
Finally got my letter today with the pin I need to verify my identity. I called prior to getting it and was told by the gentlemen that the letters were said to have gone out on the 10th but they actually weren’t issued until the 16th. Hopefully have a DDD next week!!
-
@jacky e i noi didnt realize i had to make an account i was doing generic wmr, but i just got the pin today in mail, did what it said and now just/still waiting, thank you for reaching out i no alot of ppl are waiting i just didnt understand why it was so generic but no i no why lol
-
@wowzerz I have submitted my verify through email. Now I’m worried do your ember how to submit it through the MTC
-
Wow. Cant believe how bad the Mass DOR handled my return this year. I submjtted my return like a week before the opening day and was accepted 1/31 for both state and federal. Got my federal in a week. However my state refund (on MTC) said it was processing and to wait 4-6 weeks. Finally after the the full 6 weeks, I’m told via MTC that a letter was sent out for ID Verification and to expect within 3-5 business days. Waited til day 10 to finally call the Mass DOR since it never came. The man i talked to was nice and sent me a message on MTC telling to provide my ID, SS card, and proof of address to some MassDOR email. So i do that and respond to his message on MTC saying i did so. They replied thank you, we’ve sent out another letter for ID Verification… Im like what?? So i call back last friday and speak with some other dude to find out they never got my ID info. Smh. So he guides me through a way to upload all the documents directly on the MTC website. And boom. Done. He says to expect my refund within a week or so. And what do ya know? I checked MTC just now to find out i have a DD for tomorrow. All in all, it took 2 months smh
-
So our refund was issued via mail on the 16th. How long does it usually take to receive the check?
-
I called that number after 47 minutes was connected to elaine. Very nice lady who checked and said I have no holds or verification needed. They are just backed up. Which is weird since people who filed after me got theirs. I filed and was received February 6th. She said it should be done processing by Friday. Fingers crossed
-
Okay, update: (after being on hold for 23minutes!) I finally reached a person and I was told that a letter was issued on the 10th of March for me to verify 3 things online and the turnaround for my refund after that is “fairly quick, as soon as a week..” SMH I know many people have filed before me around the end of January. I can feel the level of frustration because I filed and was accepted same day on 2/5 and still no MA refund. its 6 weeks today! I already got my federal for almost a month now. So stupid.
My advise maybe not to file sooo early. Most people that files mid Feb like my mother received everything no problem. This is Crazy! “just wait a little bit because it went out on the 10th” How sway, it should not take over 5 days to send a letter to another same state address. ughs I will try and keep everyone posted.
Just call and ask questions! my MTC says no alerts or letters sent out but there was!
one 800 three nine 2- six zero eight nine
-
Hi, is it possible to know what number you all called to speak to a person. I am trying to monitor my refund on MTC but its asking for an ID number from a letter I never received yet. I filed 2/5 and still nothing simply the generic wait 4-6 weeks on both “WMR” and Toll free number” thanks for the help in advance.
-
Still no changes been seen since February 6th, no letters and when I called they sat to wait 6 weeks. Which is next week. This is madness
-
Hey guys, now I know why our taxes took so long!
-
Finally a DD date…went black for a couple days and then a date
Good luck to all! -
Well I got an update. They took my state refund for a college debt from 13 years ago that I didn’t even know that I owed. So recap, filed Jan 20, accepted Jan 22,last Thursday got a letter on MTC requesting copies of s.s cards, uploaded copies of s.s cards same day, amount turned to black zeros today and got the letter today on MTC about them taking my refund for college debt. Til next year everyone.
-
Haha their idea of fraud protection is a joke. Oh by the way I was selected for review so I had to send in a million things the other day. Also, I had a friend file Friday, was accepted or at least notified from turbo tax on sat and has a ddd for thurs LOL
-
@melissa rose a bunch of us who filed in January are still waiting. I filed Jan 20 accepted Jan 22 and just last Thursday I got a letter on MTC saying they wanted copies of my son’s and my s.s cards. A lot of people are being id verified due to fraud protection.
-
@lance OMG r u kidding me? Additional 2 weeks for processing. When I called Friday the lady told me that they received my upload of s.s cards and that they’re pushing the refunds out pretty quickly. Frickin 2 weeks is not pretty quickly. I called again this am n she said it should I should see an update soon on MTC. I sure hope I do!
@joe check the generic where’s my refund page. Or maybe they are sending u a check. Alot of people are being mailed checks who chose DD. -
this is crazy was prosessed 1/26 accepted 2/2 still no info, says generic wait for to six week on mtc… why havnt i got any other info?
-
Where are folks seeing DD dates?
My green turned to black but I don’t see a date! -
@jackie i just got off the phone with them i was informed that they had received both ss cards and now to wait an additional 2 weeks for processing. That this year with the new system my account was selected randomly for extra security total BS
-
Do they update daily? Or can it update throughout the day ? Thx
-
@georgia I just read further down, I seen ur post from Saturday saying no update, so I take it MTC updated for u this am. I didn’t think they update on Mondays cuz they say it updates overnight and if there’s nobody working on Sundays I didn’t think it’d update on a Mon. Guess I’m wrong tho. Lol Glad u got a DDD. I had to id verify, so on Thursday I uploaded copies of my son’s and my s.s cards that they requested. I hope I get an update soon with a DDD. I will post when I get an update.
-
@georgia did the MTC website update for u this morning? Or do you think it updated Saturday for u, did u check it Saturday?
-
@AnnaM it took 3 days for me to receive it
-
So I called the DOR and it is exactly what Georgia said they sent me a pin verification that they are not able to upload into MTC and I should receive it by Wednesday he stated. He said once I receive it and go online and verify then they will give me a DDD date
-
Georgia: Thank you so much I am hoping I get it in the mail soon. I really need it. Do you know when they sent yours out and how long it actually took you to receive it in the mail. I have informed delivery so I know its not in todays mail
-
@AnnaM it depends I was sent a letter with a pin to put in online. They won’t put those on the website. The other verification letters are available online. I received my letter last Thursday and updated today with a DDD of 3/14
-
Check this morning and MTC says I was sent a letter on 03/10 and to give it 3-5 business days to receive. Does anyone know if the letter shown will end up showing in my MTC account as an alert so I can see it before receiving it? Does anyone know what type of letter it is
-
I got my letter Thursday to put in the PIN number. Still no update on MTC but when I call and put my info In it says my info still doesn’t match. I don’t know what is going on
-
FYI- our DD was 3/12 saw it pending in our account for the 12th but bank released it early this morning.
-
Got my check finally yesterday when it was supposed to be direct deposit all along!!!! Crazy tax year this year!! Good Luck to everyone still waiting! See you all next year!
-
@lance the lady told me today on the phone that they’re pushing them out pretty quickly. I hope tmrw we have an update. She said MTC will update on Saturday, so let’s hope! I will keep you posted when I get an update, plz do the same. Ty. Btw I uploaded my SS cards thru the website yesterday. When did u do urs?
-
Anyone with a DD date of the 12th for the state that has an Emerald Card gotten their refund yet
-
Woohoo finally got a DDD of March 13.
Filed Jan. 26 was accepted 2/2
I am beyond shocked that it took this long. Just thankful that it’s done with, till next year lol -
Woohoo finally got a DDD of March 13.

Never mind it just hit my bank till next year everyone good luck
-
Does n e be know if the state will come to my bank before the 12th or does it come that day I use the serve card from jackson hewitt
-
@lance I’m trying to find out the same thing. I uploaded my son’s and my SS cards today. Ridiculous cuz my returns have been the same for 13 years. I’m gonna call tmrw to find out how long it will take,and I will post the info I get. I tried calling today but the call centers were closed becuz of the storm.
-
Hey guys, update, my funds have been deposited. I have DCU. Thank God. Finally! This has been the most ridiculous tax season! I’m still waiting for my FED! I pray you guys get yours way faster than it took to get mine. Good luck, see you guys next year.
-
Anybody have any idea how long after uploading your stupid social security cards does it take. Which is silly like i didnt claim my kid years past and didnt have this issue
-
@adam Kudos to you for sending them a not so nice letter! Lol. I hope we get our refunds soon. And hope they DD mine like I’ve always done, and not send me a check, that will mean an even longer wait! Lol i hope u put in ur letter about where’s the security and protection about sending people checks who have asked for DD into their account, who filed a week or 2 ago, I would think that they would want to make sure they’re sending the check to the actual correct person!
-
@adam well that’s a bummer! Just send in ur documents ASAP. I feel like they could have sent us these letters way earlier than now. Smh, most of us filed end of January. It’s ridiculous. But unfortunately nutin we can do but sit and wait. I will post when I get an update. Ofcourse the call center is closed today cuz of the storm. I wanted to call and see how long it will take now for them to release my refund. Hopefully sooner than later!
-
I don’t know why that posted so many times lol. I uploaded what I had online. It wasn’t everything but I also included a not so nice letter. Let’s see what happens lol
-
And of course they want a million documents from me. Congrats everyone else
-
Unfortunately, mine wasn’t just an ID verify. They want all my documents
-
Does anyone know how long it will take for them to release my refund now that I sent in the verification over the MTC website?
-
@adam omg r u serious. Is it paperwork u need to mail in or can just do it online? This is ridiculous. Mine was that they wanted a copy of my son’s and my s.s card. I uploaded it and sent it in over the website. I hope they release it soon.
-
Obv they updated to wanting a bunch of paperwork and it couldn’t just be an Id check..unreal
-
*helps!
-
Just checked MTC and went black 00’s- no DD- so then I went to the generic where’s my refund page and it shows DD 3/12. Hope this hells for anyone. Filed 1/29.
-
I filed on the 29th of January. state turned green in mtc on the 2nd of feb. Last week they fixed my state. Was exactly 7 days ago. And today at 7am balance turned black. And have a DDD for March 12. Been green since the 2nd of February. I’m going to assume everyone else will get there’s very soon as well. Good luck guys.
-
I filed and accepted on January 29
-
I finally have a change. The amount went to 0.00. But no ddd, does anyone know if I will get a ddd another day or will not show at all. How long does it usually take to be sent. It gives minimal information.
-
Finally got a DD date of 3/12. Accepted 1/26
-
I checked the other thing mine is dd
-
I think if it turns black with no DDD, it means they issued it by check. I called the automated service and found out mine is being mailed despite asking for DD.
-
Hello All
Finally a DD date of 3/12. Accepted 1/26 and green until today. -
Got updated to a ddd of 3/12 yeayy finally. This will be the last year I file early. I got accepted 1/28
-
My amount turned to black 0.00 with no did. Can someone please tell me what this means
-
I got an update! I have to id verify. Yay!
-
Annnnnd then I see a few people were also updated this morning…. Maybe today was the day!
-
Finally black 0.00 and a DDD of 03/12… This is what I think happened. My FED REFUND has been held up because of a health connector forms. I faxed the forms to the IRS 3 weeks ago with still no updates. So, I called the IRS yesterday and the lady put me on hold to do something. When she came back on line she said that “now” I should see an update to the where’s my refund thing AND she said that “now” I should use the new amount. I wake up this morning and check both State and Fed because I SWEAR they are connected and boom, update on state!
-
Yay finally i just checked the other page and it says the 12th finally omg I was going crazy
-
Omg I just checked mine and now its 0.0 in black but don’t say n e thing else what does that mean
-
Gim micks when did you file
-
Ddd for the 12th of March. Finallyyyyyyy dammnn Sonnnn.
-
Been green for 39 days in MTC still no updates since they they deducted money off my state 7 days ago. I hope i get an update this morning. They updated my state amount last week at 9:00 oclock in the morning. I will keep an eye on It and I will keep everyone posted if I get a DDdate I
-
@adam I hope it’s just sutin simple. Like having to go online and id verify urself. Then hopefully ur refund will be released. Let us know how it goes for u. I’m praying tmrw I and all of us get updates or DDD. I will check here in the am and update if I get an update.
-
1/26 and I was 1/28
-
Adam when did your wife file
-
Yup, it is ridiculous. It took me multiple reply’s to get told I will see a letter tomorrow. I wonder what it is.
-
@adam. I filed Jan 20, accepted Jan 22. Still green, no letters. It’s frickin ridiculous.
-
My wifes (filed separate) updated this am with a deposit date of 3/9. Mine is still green since Jan and I finally wouldn’t take the standard answer so I continued to reply to the MTC email asking for a specific look to make sure no letters were issued. I am glad I pushed it because they just told me that a letter asking for additional information will be issued to me tomorrow. They said I should be able to see it on MTC. Like really, hold me up for six weeks and then tell me that. I hope it is just something easy
-
Still nothing smh
-
Updating you guys on the number that I gave out earlier I guess you have to leave a message and they’ll get back to you within 24 hours just left a message going to see what happens.@xtina okay thanks for letting me know how it went with that number I didn’t know what to expect it was given to me to try by a friend. Also I filed on the 29th accepted on the 29th it’s been processing since the 30th
-
Just got a call back from dor and said my return was in processing and give it another week. She also said that the ones that are in processing will released soon. Lol
-
Still NO UPDATE! accepted 1-27
-
No update
-
@tae I just called no help same old line telling me to wait smh I filed the 1/26 accepted 1/28 smh
-
I’m in the same boat I’ve been following you guys for the past 2 weeks and never comment I just read The Helpful information that you guys put out but I just received a text from a friend of mine and said try calling this number it might help I’m at work at the moment and I don’t go on break until 1:30 so I won’t be able to call until then but I’ll give you guys a number so whoever else wants to call not sure if it’s going to help but it doesn’t hurt to try the number is 617 626 3833 and I was told that it is the tax problem and resolution phone number can’t wait till 1:30 to see what they say and if they can really solve the problem if anyone else does call and gets some information please post
-
Nothing here yet. WTF is taking so long.
-
This is the stupidest flippin’ tax year I’ve seen since I started filing taxes 15 years ago. I’ve always had mine within 2 weeks. Getting super pissed. Filed Jan 20, accepted Jan 22. On the website it says accepted Jan 22, please wait 4-6 weeks. Well it’s been over 6 weeks! I’m so over this bullshit. They say fraud protection?? Yet they are sending checks thru the mail for people who have opted for DD, where the hell is the protection there?? Like for real Mass!!
-
Accepted 1/28 and nothing yet this is so aggravating
-
@Mo-Nope I got my date on Thursday last week. And it was supposedly sent out Friday. Not sure why I haven’t gotten it yet. Its coming from Springfield and I am in Worcester. Whatever, I am so over this tax season. I will never file early again!! Its complete BS
-
Accepted 1/27 and finally just got a DD for Friday. Wow that took longer than it ever has before
-
Filed 1/20 still green.
-
Emily did yours just update today mine is still green filed 1.26 received the 29th and nothing still
-
Filed and accepted 2/1. Checked and my refund was issued by check 3/2. Have yet to recieve my check. Was told it was fraud protection. Dont know how its safer to send a check then put it in MY ACCOUNT. Very frustrating!
-
Amount is still green when I log in, who knows when they’ll deposit it I’m just annoyed and apparently I should file super late next year so I can get my money fast. Good luck guys
-
@Adam I said the same thing. but they said a lot of the fraud is from the early filers.
-
That logic that they gave to you also makes zero sense in terms of fraud protection. Where ate the prevention checks and protection efforts on someone who filed 5 days ago and got theirs today but someone who filed in Jan is still waiting. Makes zero sense
-
I filed my co-workers taxes Thursday and she got her state check today. I was advised that all taxes filed early or beginning of February are delayed and checks are being sent out instead of direct deposits due to the amount of fraud. They are randomly running cycles and double checking as a lot of people have to do an Identity verification due to the fraud. I filed 01/22 for accepted 02/01 was advised they did not start processing until 02/02 so we should be counting from 6 weeks if the date of 02/02 I was advised it has NOT been a full 6 weeks for anyone that has filed until 03/16 I hope this helps.
I am sitting patient at this point
-
When I look it up, it says my refund was issued by check on March 2nd but says 10-14 business days. Does it really take that long for a letter with a check to arrive??? I filed my federal with my state and i’ve already received my federal refund by direct deposit. Also, I chose Direct Deposit when filing so Im not even sure why it is being sent by check in the first place…
-
@adam let us know how that goes, I’ve asked to speak to a supervisor or manager and they just say that they don’t have the access to transfer anybody to a supervisor or manager. This is really getting ridiculous. All they say to me is the lame security measures it goes thru to prevent fraud. Ok understandable, but why are we, who filed at the end of January still waiting,and people who have filed early-mid Feb already have received their refund. My bf filed a week after me, and a week later his was processed, oh wait, right because they were able to seize his refund. But us who are due a refund are waiting almost 2 months!
-
We are still waiting after 6 weeks. People who filed early were certainly punished this year. Who would have thought this new system is actually worse then the prior. I don’t understand why they just don’t process them like the feds do. I’ll give it another morning to update and if not I will get a supervisor on it
-
Just called dor again they gave me the same lame response to wait 6 weeks this is insane
-
@vdinosaur, yay! I’m so happy for u! Still no update here unfortunately. Arrgghhhh! Lol. I don’t understand what is taking so long. Filed Jan 20, accepted Jan 22. I’m hoping atleast this week I will have some kind of update.
-
Hey y’all. MTC updated the amount to black with a ddd of March 8. Still waiting on federal smh
-
Checked again mine is still green what the hell filed the jan 26 went green the 29th this is so crazy I guess I have to call them again today
-
Checked at 7:15 no movement. Checked at 7:30 and I have zeros and it states part of my refund was paid to a college debt.
Filed 1/29, still no DDD posted but at least I know it was processed.
Till next year !!
-
Wow still green this is B.s
-
Mine was accepted Feb 2 I filed Jan 30 and I’m still waitingggg ugh last year I got it Feb 14 like wtf I called them and was told to wait two more weeks smh
-
@vdinosaur that’s awesome. I hope u get an update on MTC or even a surprise deposit. Keep us posted. As I will do the same on any update I get. Ty
-
Accepted on January 29th, Green since February 2nd, last week they corrected the amount in my state in MTC, as they always do, no changes since last week, and no DDD, no letters, last year i got my state on the 3ed of March, Im hopeing i will see a date this week. staying positive. Im not sure the reason for any of the delays. Mass just is slow this year. how interesting.
-
@jackie they told me they needed to verify some things from my return such as my kids and W2s. Faxed it all after I spoke with her Friday and it was approved this morning she told me in an email. My MTC still shows the green amount, no ddd. I was told I should get it this week and if I don’t get it Friday to reach out to her again.
-
@vdinosaur very nice email u sent them. Did u get ur refund after sending in ur verification? Wasn’t sure if it was just approved or if u got a ddd or even dd.
-
I complained on their Facebook page and they gave me an email to respond to. Took them about 1-2 business days to respond back. In the email I wrote:
“Hi,
I understand the dor states that they process returns within 4-6 weeks but on the other site I believe was mass.gov, it states up to 75% of returns get processed and refunds sent within less than 14. Not just me, many people have been waiting about a month for a return that usually takes us a week to receive. Can I please have an explanation as to why the state is taking so long with returns. My mother filed last week and cannot even check her status even though her return has supposedly already been accepted.”
Then the Director of Problem Resolutions reaches out to me via email about my return.
-
I called today and he was really nice and calm. He took a look and said everything looks fine. No letters & that they didnt start processing until February 2. So i would be on my fourth week. I was accepted Jan 27. He said Yes accepted the 27 but we didnt start processing returns until Feb 2, so give it about 2 weeks more if u dont receive anything call cuz that would be your 6 week.
-
I’ve asked to speak to someone with higher authority, they will not transfer you to anybody when u ask. This is just crap waiting this long. I’ve been waiting 6 weeks.
-
After sending in verifications that DOR needed from me, I am finally approved for my refund. I don’t think we should rely on MTC on updates. I also believe a live agent can’t do much regarding our refunds and hope one of you can speak to someone of higher authority to see what is up with your returns. I was able to get mine approved today when I faxed my documents on Friday evenin for review. In addition, the person who told me to reach out to them was the Director of Problem Resolutions. Hope everyone gets their refund soon! I on the other hand am still waiting on federal, received a letter in Saturday about a 60 day review and that I don’t need to send in anything.
-
I’m still green here as well. WTF is taking so long?!
-
It’d be nice to atleast have a DDD, ya know.
-
Still nothing. Sitting in green going on 6 weeks. No notices ,no letters nothing
-
Still green here. Filed Jan 20, accepted Jan 22, so it’s been 6 weeks today since they accepted my return. Wtf is going on? Called this am and the lady just said wait another week. I don’t get it?!?!?!
-
Still in the green here. Sent them 2 messages. One Saturday and one just now. Really annoying.
-
Its just annoying waiting
-
Mo,
There are a lot of us in the same position as you. You are not the only one don’t worry -
When I call i call dor is that who I’m suppose to call
-
I called them a few time and they tell me I have to wait for the processing and that there is no problem I check mtc and they tell me no alerts I don’t understand what there doing
-
@mo: Did you look to see if you have any correspondence (letters), maybe they need some ID info? I would call them this AM and ask what is going on with your refund.
-
Omg this is crazy filed the 29th of January and still freaking green with no deposit date what is the hold up
-
My DD just went in. Good Luck to everyone waiting.
-
Received a DD date for 3/5 checked this am no DD. Accepted 1/29, don’t know what is going on. There DD dates are not accurate. I will call this AM.
-
Ok ty I was accept on 1 29 n no refund no update nothing making me mad
-
Mo, this was this past week. It’s turned black at 7am on Thursday morning. They said they attempted a DD on my account the day before but it failed (which I dont get because my federal went through with no problem). So they sent the check dated Mar 2.
-
Guy u was able to get a hold of someone on a Sunday when did it turn black for u
-
The green refund amount finally turned black and below said the check was issued on Mar 2. Check? I chose DD. So I called them. They said there was a problem doing DD to my account. So they issued a check on Wednesday 2/28. I am still waiting for the check! Anyone know how long to receive a check? Accepted 1/29.
-
N e updates from any body still green here since 1 29 this is crazy
-
Still green here also. It’s been 6 weeks today that I electronically filed. Mon will be 6 weeks since it was accepted. I have gotten no letter about id verifying or anything. Getting pissed here too! I’m calling Mon!
-
My amount is still green. Messaged them and asked about my refund. They told me they sent out a letter asking for verification but there is nothing on the website. I can’t find the letter they said that they sent. I’m so confused.
-
Still green here been that way since 1/27. Starting to get really pissed now. Why dose it take so long?
-
We have been green since 1/26
-
File 2/6 accepted same day. No progress, still in green. Just wondering if there was some kind of Id verification, would I have already received it. Never had to wait this long before..
-
Any updates from.anyone still green here starting to get pissed off
-
@sar that stinks. I can’t believe how many people who are still waiting. Idk why it’s taking this long for early filers to get approved when usually it takes about a week. I remember mentioning something about me claiming EIC. I thought that was just for federal?
-
@veinisaur I moved and had a baby and emailed and they told me no holds and generic wait 6 weeks … why do I have a feeling an ID verify is coming my way 👎🏼
-
Hey y’all here is an update:
Since I have complained on Facebook and emailed DOR, after 1 business day waiting for a response & the Director of the Problem Resolutions office at DOR had emailed me. I was busy since I got the email but she had emailed me about 2-3 times today about calling because my refund was on hold, needed to ID verify (moved & had a baby last year), and she could get my refund released to me hopefully by Monday evening. I’m just waiting on an email from her to find out when documents I need to send to her. Hope everyone gets their refunds soon! I filed 1/26 and got accepted 1/29.
-
It’s says a letter was mailed to me on the 27th. Call DOR this morning and the rep said this letter can’t be put on the MTC site. Anyone have an idea what the letter could be?
-
Same as some people below, shows it is being processed on 01/29 and nothing yet. Longest I have waited for a state return.
-
1/29… still nothing ugh
-
Mine was accepted Jan 24 and is still pending. I’m getting a little frustrated.
-
Got an update, after verifying my identity Tuesday via uploading documentation on MTC. This morning my amount was 00.00 in Black DDD 03/06. My fiancé still has no action on his account amount in green. Filed and accepted the same day 2/2.
-
@no. Yes I checked at around 5:30. Then 6:30 and finally at 7:30. Before the last one my amount easnim green. The last time it was black 00. I went to refunds and it was posted there.
-
@ renee so when u checked this morning the first time there was no update then u checked again and there was a update
-
@ renee so when u checked this morning the first time there was no update then u checked again and there was a update
-
No change for me either. Filed Jan 20, accepted Jan 22. Ugh frustrating!!
-
Still green with no change 1/28 and my wife is still green with no change 1/26. This is unreal.
-
Sorry for the double posting. D ont know why it did that. To confirm I did just get updated. Ddd for 03/06
-
@Sam. Mine has been like that for awhile. I got the I’D verify notice and uploaded all my documents a few days ago. Still no change.
-
Just checked MTC again this morning and have a DDD of 03/06! Finally.
-
This is crazy mine is still green what the heck is wrong with them this year
-
@Sam. Mine has been like that for awhile. I got a notice for I’D verify and submitted all my info online a few days ago. Nothing changed so far.
-
Hi All!
Question. On MTC under summary it says Balance with my refund amount in green. But now it also says credit and the amount in Black? Is this a good sign? Or is it only good when it turns to all black 000’s?? This is so frustrating! Return was accepted 1/27..
-
It will be 5 weeks for me tomorrow
-
I signed up for direct deposit but MTC today says it has been issued by check on March 2. It says to allow 10-14 business days to arrive. Does it typically take that long?
-
Send a message via MTC yesterday afternoon asking about an update. Received a message this evening saying my return has yet to be processed. If no update after 60 days to contact them and they will look into it.
I will say this I wish they processed my return as quickly as they answer my messages lol -
Still nothing for me. It’s obnoxious
-
@mo, ty. I will keep u updated too if I get an update. It’s crazy we are waiting this long, a lot of us over a month now. Some people filed early Feb and got theirs back the next week. Crazy how ‘random’ it is. Ya know.
@teri, MTC and the mass.gov are the only places I know to check. Supposedly MTC is the best way to check. Cuz u will be able to see right away on there if they’ve sent u out a letter, and able to view it on there right away. Keep us posted on any update. i.e. DDD, or if they want u to i.d verify. Ty -
My daughter and I both filed 2-2-18. She got her refund on 2-9-18 and my still says being processed. Checked on MTC and the refund amount shows in green. Is there any where else we can find out when it will be issued? Thanks everyone !!
-
@Jackie I never waited this long before its crazy I will keep u updated
-
@Mo, the amount in green in ( ) is the amount due to you from ur refund. Let us know when u get an update. once it goes to black 0.00, that means ur refund has been issued to u. Mine is still green. Filed Jan 20, accepted Jan 22. Hope to get a DDD soon or some kind of update! Arrgghhhh. Getting frustrated here. Have never everrrr waited this long for state refund! I will post also when I get an update, hopefully sooner than later.
-
So they update all day I filed the 26 and they accepted it on the 29th but still nothing 😢
-
So I called the MA DOR today and spoke to a guy and asked him why I am getting a check instead of direct deposit. He stated that people who filed early are being issued checks instead of direct deposits to prevent fraudulent returns. He stated that if you filed end of January and beginning of February there is a good chance you will be sent a check.
-
I filled on 2/2 electronic and it stills says processing
-
@Mo: I filed the 28th accepted the 29th. Just early this AM I received a update DD 3/5 for direct deposit. Keep checking frequently I believe they update all day.
-
Mine is showing green in () n e one know what that means
-
I filed the 29th how long does it tAke to update n e one else with same date
-
What is the number to get in contact with them
-
@emily, Tomorrow is the 2nd. probably going tomorrow and you should get it Saturday, or Monday
-
I just dont understand why i am getting a check when i wanted and signed up for direct deposit! its frustrating to say the least!!!
-
@kcma I signed up…hoping maybe i would see it was being delivered today but i got nothing, do they usually send it out on the date they say or sooner??
-
@emily, sign up on the USPS you will be able to see it the day its delivering
-
@KC MA its says on MTC that it will be issued 3/2… :-/
-
Still no update on my end. Both federal and state smh.. they told me to email them when I commented via Facebook and no response either.
-
@emily. Go on USPS and sign up for Informed Delivery. You will get an email around 7 every morning showing you what you have coming for mail. Your refund probably already was mailed before you received the message,
-
So I checkecd mine today and it is black zeros and it said that my refund was issued by check. I am happy i finally have results, but when I filed i did direct deposit, so why am i getting a damn check!
-
@Lance. Mine just came thru at 7:16 this morning, so they must update all day. I called them Monday to find out what is going on, not sure if that helped get it to this point. Try calling be really pleasant to them they seem to be more responsive when you are. Insist that they check to make sure they are working on it, Good Luck, hoping everyone gets some positive soon.
-
No movement. Still. No letters sent, no updates. Waiting since 1/29
-
Now im just trying to figure put how upset i should be. Finally some of you are getting movement on your accounts congrats im jealous because i have no change still. Rather infuriating that its now march 1st and there’s nothing different. Ive decided to give up waiting hand and foot checking. When it comes it comes whatever its already spent anyway. Have fun. Any spies from mass dor in here can kiss my @$$
-
Now it says Was issued by DD March 5th-Monday.
-
Just updated mine is now showing black 0. Does that mean I will soon be getting my refund. Filed 1/28 accepted 1/28. No DD date, Confused
-
@dee, did u sign up for a MTC acct? U would be able to see the letter on there that they sent you.
-
Got this message today. Mind you I was audited and had to ID. verify last year.
Your return was received on 18-Jan-2018 and requires additional information for processing. A letter has been issued on 28-Feb-2018 detailing the additional information needed. Please allow 3-5 business days from 28-Feb-2018 for the mailed letter to be delivered.
-
Still in the green. Wth is going on. Does anyone know when they update and post ddd?
-
Filed 2/2/2018. Shows DDD as of 9 am 3/2/2018.
-
@renee, ty for ur response. Keep us posted on when u get an update. Ty
@priss, keep us posted on ur updates since u id verified. Ty
-
@Jackie e. I filed 01/26. We were alerted on MTC of the letter. So sent everything in online. When I called they didn’t notify us of issues. So hopefully they get it finished soon.
-
I just got an alert for a letter on MTC. States I need to verify my identity 🤦🏾♀️🤦🏾♀️ By March 29 to continue processing my states which was accepted 2/2…. did what they asked hope they get their lives now. My fiancé’s are still processing he was accepted the same day. Hasn’t received correspondence from them yet.. that’s it as of now.
-
@renee. When did u file? I filled Jan 20, accepted Jan 22, but lady at dor said it began processing on Jan 31. Wondering if I might be getting id verified. And I read on here a cple weeks ago that as soon as u verify identity that they release ur refund asap. Keep me posted
-
My refund still show green.
-
My refund still shows in green they were accepted on Jan 29 still says processing
-
I just got updated. A letter online requiring ID verification. I submitted everything online. Said could take several days
-
Still nothing. My neighbor said they just got a letter requiring verification of identity. Had to go online with a pin. They said it has been 6 weeks since they filed.
-
Most, of not all on here have MTC. That is not the reason why refunds aren’t being released. According to them they are just running slow
-
Massachusetts taxpayers who plan to e-file must call or sign up with MassTaxConnect, where you will have to answer a few questions to prove your identity and get your refund. Your refund won’t be issued until your identity is confirmed.
-
kc ma
i have always filed early and always got my state refund with in 5 days of opening day of accepting this is the first year I have ever had to wait this long. The new system they use sucks
-
Sounds like a penalty for filing early.
I was also told 2 more weeks because I filed early.
This is the first and last time I file early.
5 weeks waiting -
Just makes no sense. So why are people who file for example on 2/15 and got there’s on 2/20 why do they not wait six weeks. This system is garbage
-
Just called DOR and she basically told be because I filed before January 29th the 1st official opening day of filing I was pushed to the back of the line. She said yes they received mine 01/22 but its 6 weeks from the date of 01/29 so I am just in the beginning of my 4th week and for me to give it 2 more weeks
-
I would love to have an update on mine. But no. Still just the green. Anyone know where on the log in site where it would post the ddd?
-
This is crazy how the received mines 01/22 accepted 02/01 and still nothing it is still in green and no ddd. This is the worst year ever for them. I had their new system. I have never wait longer then a week from me filing for my state check.
Does anyone know if the system is updated all through the day or just once a day?
-
@Jackie E. I only checked once at 10am and was updated with a refund date. Yes i checked both the log in ad the generic page and both have updated.
-
My state tax now shows that my refund was issued by dad on mar 1 2018. It’s the 27th ???
-
I filed the 29th, accepted 29th. No movement, just green. Got my federal back. So annoying. Hopefully something this week or next.
-
Does anyone know if your refund was offset how the remainder will be sent?
-
@NewNew, did it just update on MTC website where u sign in with username, or the other website where u enter ur ss# and refund amount? Like have u been checking all morning and it just updated?
-
I just got a refund date for Mar 1. Been on green since Jan 28th
-
Also she said once you see the green amount go to black with 0.00, that means they issued the refund. Let’s just keep checking everybody and plz keep each other updated. Ty.
-
So I just called, she told me they are issuing refunds everyday. Also she said my return began processing on Jan 31, when the website tells me the 22nd. She said just give it another 2 weeks.
-
Filed and accepted 2/1…for both me and my fiancé separately. Both returns still processing with amount in green. I got my feds 2/16… usually always have my states by now. This is annoying as hell. My friend file filed same day as me and got accepted 2/2 and got a deposit 2/9. WTF, Mass has got to be kidding me with this crap.
-
This state sucks. Let’s all troll them via phone call, Twitter, etc etc until we get our money
-
Nothing here. Wth. Any info would be a help. Going on week 5. Smh.
-
No update this am either. I even sent a message thru MTC website yesterday and no response yet. It’s been 5 weeks since state accepted! Wth! Anyone know if it updates thru out the day?
-
Nothing again this morning. No Ddd just the green. Starting week 5.
-
Filed 2/6 accepted the same day. I don’t even have a ddd. Just states processing. I have never waited this long, it’s not as long as most of you, but I usually get my state within a week.
-
Nothing this AM. Still waiting. I will call this AM and post what they said.
-
This is ridiculous, all of us who filed in Jan are still waiting! Filed Jan20, accepted Jan 22. Amount still green. Called once before and lady said everything looks ok, still just processing. Called this past Fri and another lady said well it takes 4-6 weeks. Today is 5weeks since being accepted. I mean come on now, what’s the hold up!
-
I’ve been waiting since the 26th I filled my state they accepted it on the 29th I e filled and set up direct deposit and today I got a letter in the mail from the dor saying there was a issue with my account number they were going to send it too and there mailing me a check tomorrow it stated my state taxes were on hold in security my status says green with my amount shown still on the website and still says processed as of 9pm maybe allot of us waiting have the same issue I figured I would let everyone know it’s good to call them to make sure everything is checked out that’s the reason they held my state taxes I feel better knowing I’m getting it rather then waiting wondering what’s going on hope it helps
-
Filed 2/11 recieved 2/12.
Received fed 2/23.
I DO owe the state from not filing in 2012 (which is BS since taxes are taken right out of ones PAYCHECK so to assert fees and interest arghhh!!)
My state refund was deducted the Amnt I owed, and the balance owed to me is in green. HOWEVER, when I received my federal, the Amnt owed to the state was automatically deducted from my fed. I called the offset number and they say the MA DOR took it. So I’ve been charged twice now, by the state..Still no update. Very aggravated.
-
Seems all of us filed and accepted late January and nothing. I am wondering if they are stuck in outer space somewhere. Mine accepted 1/28. Nothing yet.
-
Mine was accepted 1/31 used turbo tax and filed early. Got federal within a week. State still green.
-
Nothing today.
-
Do they do deposits any day of the week?
-
What days do they update & due deposits usually? Does anyone know
-
They received mine on 1/27/18 and still says being processed. What days do they update and deposit? Thanks
-
@camiel
I am in a similar situation, I was making payments and this year’s refund will cover the remaining balance plus I’ll have a refund.
I filed 1/26 accepted 2/2 my payment always came out on the 21 of each month.
Feb 21 they pulled the payment like usual even though I filed. I called and they said your refund hasent been processed yet.
The next day my refund increased by the amount they withdrew the day before lol.
I mean how crazy.
Still waiting for my refund. -
Was hoping for a 10am update but nothing.
Has anyone got a DDD lately? -
Thought I’d share. So I know I owe the state from last year. They have been sending me letters, but I knew this year’s return would cover it. I filed on 02/05 and the amount in green is the amount due to me after they take out what I owe. I’ve seen no other movement and wasn’t too angry since I knew I owed I just figured it would take longer.
Well this morning I get a notice of a letter. The letter is informing me the amount I owe from last year just went up because they assessed more interest. So it’s like they haven’t even touched my return that I filed on 02/05. Getting super frustrated with this.
-
I don’t know what’s going on this year, last year I got my state back 3 days after federal…I got my federal on the 21st so hopefully it’ll update today or tomorrow…I would just like a ddd, both my sisters and brother have gotten theirs already
-
Still nothing, 😒, I’m going on week 5.
I have called twice and got the same robotic answer. -
No update here. On week 5
-
On my 5th week, still nothing. If I remember right, all my refunds hit my bank on a Saturday,
Good Luck everyone and post when you receive your refund. Thanks -
@K, yea it’s ridiculous. Keep me posted if and when you get any update or a DDD, and I will do the same. Good luck.
-
It does @Jackie. I filed the 26th, it says it got accepted that day and still waiting. I got my federal last week.
-
Seems to me, us who filed earlier are waiting longer. Wth. Filed Jan 20, accepted Jan 22, got federal back Feb 17. Still nothing from state,just says still processing and amount still green on MTC. Does anybody know what days of the week Mass issues refunds, or can it be anyday of the week?
-
Fed accepted 2/3 and received in 6 days.
MA taxes also accepted on 2/3. STILL NO REFUND.Submitted granddaughters on same day. Received refund in 6 days.
Submitted sons on 2/19, and he works in MA but lives in NH. Got his in 5 days.Don’t know what’s going on with mine. Checked and re-checked everything and it looks good. Frustrating. In all my years of filing taxes, it has never taken this long.
Tried calling at message states allow up to 60 days. Yikes!
-
Does anyone know if the state deposits only certain days of the week? Already got federal, still waiting for state, amount still green. Accepted Jan 22, what’s the hold up?
-
It’s probably getting ready to actually refund you, I check to see if you have any correspondence, or wait until you actually get the money and then call them. But it sounds like at least they are working on yours.
-
Down the number is a couple hundred less
-
My green amount is the same. Did yours go up or down?
-
Anybody else have a a different green number than what their tax return says???
-
Still no state here either!! Wth is going on! Called dor yesterday and all the lady said was the whole 6 week process. What is the hold up! Mine were accepted Jan 22! Already got federal back.
-
Nothing here either.
They could at least update refund date, even if it will not be till March.
Then again to keep their relatives in a job they need to have people answering the phones and if we knew when we would not be calling. -
Still no update.
-
@Dee I did. This has been happening to me since the Path Act was passed.
-
Ok. Maybe this is a conspiracy theory maybe not but I did not vote Democrat in the past election. Just throwing that out there.
-
So over 4 hours later the State of MA replies:
Dear Taxpayer,
Thank you for your recent inquiry. Your return is here but has not completed processing. E-filed returns can take up to 6 weeks to be processed.
We appreciate your patience.

They are full of crap. It’s a 99% automated system. They are holding many of them

After sending a message to dor stating their own timeline of a few days for 75% of returns I get an email back stating each return is different and to allow more time for processing. It’s been a month. Unbelievable.

Very nasty lady on the phone this AM, I called and she was very rude and would not answer my questions, just kept saying wait 4-6 weeks. It’s been 4 weeks and people filing later received theirs’, sounded like she was reading off a paper, just kept repeating it. They take your money every week but don’t want to give it back.
-
Received my federal yesterday. Still no movement on state filed Jan 22nd. Still in the green. Last year at this time I had received a deposit date for state for feb28th and that was late. Looks like it’s going to be even later this year. Glad I got it on an emerald card because were moving to Ohio on the 27th. Ridiculous it takes this much time
-
still nothing.
fed was supposed to yesterday, and that hasn’t been posted either.
grrrrr
-
Nothing.
-
No update here either. Has been 4 weeks.
-
Still the same this morning. No update. Been a month. No credits.
-
They responded online within two hours with the standard 4-6 weeks. I replied saying it’s simply not true so why does it take some a few days and us jan filers at 4 weeks. I actually got a response within 5 mins. They told me that each return is different and some take longer to filter through the automated systems if they are more complex.
Ok so my friend who claims multiple credits (got his refund in 5 days) is more complex then my one job no credit return.
Basically, we can’t tell you shit so just wait and you will get it eventually
-
@kc no, I didn’t even get an option to speak to a live person. I also sent a message through my mass tax connect. I will let you know as soon as they respond.
-
My fed came on time. Just fyi
-
Spoke to someone at MA DoR just to make sure my return looked okay since it’s will be 4 weeks tomorrow. She said the whole “it’s still processing, please give it another week and I should see a deposit.” Also had to verify my name, address, and dob before proceeding to find out that info. Hope we all get out ddd next week. As for federal, yesterday a lady said I was under review since 2/15, this morning another lady said to give it until the 27th because of the whole Path Act shenanigans and if I didn’t see anything until March to call back. Ugh…
-
@jay. My recording said the same thing. On line it says 6-8 weeks. Did you happened to talk to someone
-
So, I called the Ma DOR and after verifying my info, the recording said to please allow UP TO SIXTY DAYS for processing!
-
Filed with taxact Jan 27 accepted 29th. Direct deposit to Santander. Head Of household, child tax credits and eic. Got state almost 2 wks ago. Received fed at 12:30 this morning. Til next year everyone…
-
Nothing here, accepted 1/28
Anyone receive anything but the green amount? -
Still nothing updated from state. This is getting ridiculous .
-
This was posted on DOR website, dated 02/12/2018: “DOR estimates that 75% of online returns will be processed in 2-3 days and expects most refunds will be issued in less than two weeks.”
Here is the link
https://www.mass.gov/news/massachusetts-state-tax-filing-season-is-openWhat is the hold up! Guess I am calling in the morning.
-
Kerry – was accepted on the 1st. My boyfriend was accepted on the 31st and had his like 2 weeks ago. We both filed with 2 children, I don’t think there’s a rhyme or reason how they process it lol
-
@Jay a service rep told me the day it gets deposited.
-
So had a ddd for Fed of 02/22 got mine today 02/21 But my state refund is still in green with no ddd date
-
Ok so. I was accepted by MA on 1/20. I am still showing a refund in green. I do get EIC and CTT BUT, so does my best friend and she received her state refund 2 weeks ago, only 4 days after getting accepted. And so did another friend of mine with the same credits. I spoke with them today (DOR) and they told me there is nothing wrong, just could take up to 6 weeks.
-
Still waiting……..
Recieved on 1/29
Went green on 2/5
Got a Fed DDD on 2/17 for a 2/22 deposit
Mass return s stilllllll green.
I had EIC credit in case any one is wondering.
-
Does anyone know if Santander bank usually releases them on the DDD or does it take a couple days?
-
Still green here. Ugh
-
@kc yes I did have credits. Getting my federal back tomorrow. So hopefully next week then? But I know people who have got their state back in mass that have credits too. Idk. I think their system is messed up!! Lol. I have always received state before federal but not this year.
-
Hey, I finally am posting after lurking every season. Heres the deal:
Filed and accepted 1/26. MTC updated 2/3 showing refund in green. And nothing has changed. Using WMR it still says “Your return was received 1/26 and is processing. Please wait for to six weeks..” etc. I used TurboTax this year, but last year I filed 1/19 with the early test batch and STILL didn’t get my refund until March 10. This is the first year I qualified for the EITC because of making a lot less. Last year, I used Jackson Hewitt and I switched because of the issues they had with my state return. Cause even though it listed that it was accepted 1/20, the MA DoR told me it had NOT received it. So JH sent it a second time mid-Feburary. Even with no credits I had to wait til 3/10. Anyone else have or had this same issue? I always file early, so it’s not like I get tagged for fraud or verification. I spoke to a representative who told me that there was nothing delaying my account, it is as it should be but still processing. Why???
-
Still nothing here. I am hoping my early depositing bank just shows it. I know plenty of people who have got their refund without the MTC even changing. What a crap system
-
Heather when did you get accepted
-
Finally got my ddd of 2-23!!!! Checked early this morning and was still green, just checked again and it 0! Finally!!!!!
-
The state does not hold refunds due to EIC and ACTC. Someone had asked in their Facebook page and they stated that they don’t hold refunds for that reason.
-
@kc ma thank you for the info! Has anyone here used jackson hewitt and have their federal refund in their checking account yet?
-
@rosa: I buy the Turbo Tax at staples and do it myself. 49.00 federal filing free and state filing I believe was $29.00. Very easy to use, been doing it that way for years. They update you when it was accepted.
-
@kc ma did you use anyone to do your taxes like hr block or jackson hewitt?
-
@Terri: Did you file with EIC on Federal, if you did the State is not releasing any refunds until you get your Federal. I just received my Federal this AM. State will probablky take another week or so to release my refund,
-
Still green here. Was accepted by state 1/27 and still nothing! This is getting frustrating
-
@Kc that’s good to know. Feeling a little better.
Thank you! -
@Sandi770: I also have DCU, they do 1 day early, give it a few hours, hope you see yours soon.
-
@Kc I use DCU nothing yet😣
Thanx -
@Sandi770: Workers CU
-
@Kc Gm which bank?
-
Received my dd this am in bank. had a ddd of 2/22. No State yet. Good Luck everyone.
-
Still no update. Just green. GoinG on 4 weeks on the 26th.
-
I also have Santander and called to check on any pending deposits since I have a DDD of 2/22 the call taker told me he couldn’t see anything. I asked if he was sure and he insisted that if anything was pending he would be able to see It….. hopefully I see It Thursday
-
there are plenty of us on here in our forth week waiting at this point. My return is simple with no credits
-
i left a comment on the DOR Facebbok page yesterday. Someone from DOR private msgd me for my full name, phone number and email. Then a rep from the Problem Resolution Dept called me a few hrs later. There is nothing wrong with my return they can see it just takes a while. He said since i filed on 2 10 i am within the 6 wk guideline. 6 wks!! my nephew filed same status and credits a day after me and got ddd 2 20 which Citizens Bank deposited over weekend. None of my info has changed in 7 yrs. wtf!! oh well i guess Mass is dragging its ass on refunds this year.
-
@kc. She said they couldn’t see it but expects it to be there by tomorrow or Thursday. I’ll post if it comes in. I hope they don’t delay when it’s available.
-
@k I honestly think you will see it Thursday for sure. I also have 2/22 and my CU checked with ACH Dept. they have a list of Deposits for 2/22 from the IRS and they do release 1 day early. I will post tomorrow if I received it or not. She did say she was not sure they could release these 1 day early. Atleast they told me it’s there. Good Luck, I hope all the 2/22’s receive theirs tomorrow or Thursday. On my checking IRS. It says by the 22nd.
-
No pending deposits. They said it takes days to clear as well. WTF?
-
@kc ma, Thanks. I didn’t know that. I’ll call them back and ask to check the ach dept. I know it’s coming in by 2/22.
-
@k I have an account with Santander and you have to insist they check with the ACH Dept. to check or any depoisits being held. This has happened to me many times and when they do they tell me oh it just came in and within 30 minutes it shows.
-
@Jackie My bank, Santander, cannot see it. Odd.
-
Btw everyone, update, no state ddd for me either. Still green on MTC. Wth, accepted Jan22nd! Already received federal tho. Smh at Massachusetts
-
@Jackie thanks for the info btut I did my taxes with Jackson hewitt so it has to go through them first and the me correct?
-
@Rosa, The wmr site said I should have my refund by the 22nd, and it was deposited on the 17th. it will depend on ur bank as to how long they put a hold on it before releasing it to you. The IRS actually notifies the bank of a deposit a couple days before ur DDD so Incase the banks do put it a hold on it, it will be available to u by the DDD bank. But just check with ur bank, some banks release it when they see a pending deposit. From what I’ve gathered on here, anyone plz correct me if I’m wrong.
-
No update on state (surprise)
Got a DDD of 2/22 for Federal, called my bank and they said they can see the money there and it will be released on the 22 so at least I can kind of count on that. -
Also I called the IRS since it’s been 21/22 days for me just to find out I’m under review and may take up to 45 days until I get my refund. Anybody else went through the review before and could give me some insight on what happened to them?
-
No update.Wonder if this is politically motivated.
-
Don’t quote me on this, but my mother was told by my cousin that Massachusetts won’t be releasing majority of refunds until March. I surely hope not!
-
@JackieE, who have received your federal on your american express serve card from Jackson Hewitt? Can you tell me when the irs said you would have it? I did my taxes with Jackson Hewitt but I am not having the money put on the serve card it is going into my checking account?
-
Also I have an account on the site so does it mean when ppl are saying still green?
-
Whenever I check my refund it says there are no refunds associated with your refund amount. I was accepted 2/2
-
Still no update. Still green. Filed 1/26. Had federal on the 7th.
-
Agreed
-
lets hope for some refunds tomorrow
-
@OverlyCrazyOlivencia On the MassTaxConnect account. I have one and that’s where it’s green.
-
What is everyone talking about seeing their money in green and stuff like that?? All I keep getting is them saying wait 4-6 weeks.. This is my first time filing with them and I have already received my federal.. I am getting frustrated, very frustrated!
-
Does anyone know if they will be dd tomorrow with it being a holiday. Filed and accepted 2/2. Still sitting in green with parenthesis and no ddd date as of yet. 😪
-
Welcome Jackie E , I got a ddd of 2/22 and I am hoping I get mine before hand like you… I usually get my pay check 2 days early on my card so hoping I get my taxes early as well
-
Still nothing from state. I filed and got accepted by the 1-26 and have been in the green for over a week now. Federal DDD of 2-22
-
i did my nephews taxes on the 11th, day after i did mine, he also claimed eitc. he got a ddd of 2 20 from MassTaxConnect for state refund and Citizens Bank posted money today. unbelievable! mine says still processing with refund amt still in green. no ddd. no deposit. i got federal ddd of 2 22 though. wtf??
-
Has anyone received their MA State Refund?
-
You guys are lucky. There is nothing in my bank account. I think it will be there on Tuesday though
-
@Anna M. Ty, my money was deposited yesterday, I checked my email and AM EX sent me an email saying ur federal return was deposited! I was so excited. Went to the ATM and nothing! I was like omg! My luck, AM EX was having problems with the Serve cards yesterday, couldn’t wd anything all day. Woke up this a.m and luckily the problem was fixed!
-
Hoping mass just does what it does every year to me and just doesn’t update. I always get the money in my bank before I get a DDD.
-
Tried signing into turbo prepaid card site and now it says “balance unavailable check back later”.. Anyone else with this? Maybe a good thing? I have a DDD of 2/22 but mine usually always come before DDD. Im so impatient lol
-
Jackie E : When it’s say 2/22 yes you can get it before it’s up to ur bank or card also it’s say by so that means you can get it earlier….
Sean: yes massconnect usually gives a ddd
-
Does masstaxconnect give you a DDD? Or will it just say “processing” until it goes through?
-
I owed back taxes from 2015 for a form I forgot to submit with my taxes and I finally got it all settled up last month. Today I get another notice in the mail for the amount I already paid 😑 I hope this doesn’t make my state taxes take longer, and I’m also ultra annoyed that I can’t call til Tuesday because of the holiday on Monday.
-
Got my federal this A.M. Thank you credit union. Haha. I can’t believe the state has taken this long. Still pending. Oh well. Will post when that changes.
-
No new news here regarding state..however federal set for 2/22…
-
Update here. Checked my federal, got a ddd of Feb 22. Yay! But get this, state still says being processed. Still green amount on MTC. I will have my federal before my state. Which I’ve always received my state first, not this year. Btw, filed Jan20, state says accepted Jan22. I was also a PATH for federal. And ?, I’m getting my refund on the AM EX SERVE CARD, DOES ANYONE KNOW IF I MAY GET IT EARLIER THAN THE DDD OF THE 22ND?
-
Still waiting here. Both my fiancé and mine still say processing even though he found out his was taken on the 12th by unemployment so not sure why his is still saying processing. Mine was accepted on the 1/27 and his on 2/1.
-
still greeeeeen
accepted 1/29
green since 2/5Got a Fed return DDD though, so that’s nice.
-
I got a federal DDD of 2/22. Still waiting on my state
-
Woke up to a DDD from federal woohoo, state still nothing lol. I guess something better than nothing.
P.S.
I was in the group with the PATH message, my message was gone Thursday got a DDD today -
KC,
That’s not true. Many people have gotten state with credits. PATH is federal
-
@AnnaM…last year I recieved it on Mon on Presidents’ Day, think it just depends if you use a reg bank or the card you use
-
Samantha
I think we will get out fed on Tuesday because Monday is a holiday and all banks are closed.. so I’m planning for it being Tuesday
-
I received my federal refund yesterday, but still no word on my state. All it is saying is they received them on the 30th and to wait 4-6 weeks.
-
You can get deposits on Saturday and Sunday depending on your card and if you had fees getting taken out by TT etc….I got a ddd of 2/22 for my Fed but still no update for state…so far it’s the same as last year, think I’ll get Fed on Mon the 19th and state on Thur the 22nd
-
Finally got a ddd for federal or 02/22 still nothing for state
-
Filed 2/12 state ddd 2/20 and woke up with a deposit… Fed received 2/13 and already ddd of 2/22… I’m hoping nothing changes and yes I had eic
-
I was told by MA State they are not releasing any funds until the IRS starts releasing. This is another site with much information. https://igotmyrefund.com/archivedcomments/current-comments/
-
Soooo my fed says DDD by 2/22 does that mean it can come before or after that date? @Samanthatfromma thank you for info about deposit times…..do they come on Sat and Sun too?
Still nothing from state ugh!
-
State accepted 2/1 & STILL green!
On a brighter note, PATH message for fed went away and without a DDD or any other type of update, my fed was deposited into my account! Checked WMR after the deposit and STILL no update! BTW, I’m not sure if it makes a difference, but I use the Brinks Prepaid Mastercard to “get paid faster” … Check your accounts people!
-
K, Yes I had one of the credits.
-
@Dee do you get EITC? I’m curious as to the date since I can’t get access to my transcripts online.
-
Not posting because I have no update. If i received a DDD I would be posting. lol. Got my DDDin transcript for federal.
-
I think people are just sick of waiting and guessing, there’s no pattern
-
Not a lot of people posting compared to last week. Hoping that’s a good sign that refunds are being deposited.
-
They drop refunds anytime, I got my state last year on the 23rd at 2:30 PM and my federal on the 20th at 11:30 PM
-
My wife and I (filed separate) both were accepted Jan 26th for state and still sitting in green. No credits or nothing. This system is sure crap. I got federal 2 weeks ago
-
Hi do refunds drop at all times of the day or just early mornings?
-
@Laurie do you get eitc?
-
My Path message is gone as well. Yay! Still green on state.
Ever since path went through my state comes after my federal.
-
state still green. federal still says being processed. i never got PATH msg. Can’t do online transcripts bc i don’t have a valid cc. Won’t bother with mailing them bc i will prob have federal before they arrive. i hope anyway. got my paycheck today. Already spent on bills. my sons 11th bday is 2/25 and i hope for at least 1 refund by then.
-
Still green no update but my federal will be coming 22nd checked my transcripts.Just like last year and last year I got my federal before state looks like this year the same last year I didn’t get state till the 28th
-
No update for me either. Still just green.
-
Still no change for state, but my federal updated to being processed and the PATH message is gone. Still shocked that state is so behind, never has my federal come before state.
-
No update. Monday ia a holiday so maybe Tuesday? At this point I’m over it. Federal will come before State…..Oh well.
-
Anyone else use the HRBlock emerald card? My state was issued a week ago and still no deposit! So frustrating!
-
@Cassandra Tuttle
thank you!
-
The messages on the IRS phone number has changes from no EIC payments until the middle of February to we have no information on your return and allow 6 weeks. The number is 800-392-6089. Follow the prompts. If anyone gets a date on there please report on here, Thanks
-
I’m sure we will be waiting another week with this holiday. I wonder how much interest they make on delayed processing and holding refunds
-
@amy: This is in regards to the transcript or IRS Refund: https://www.irs.gov/individuals/get-transcript It shows when you will get it processed and if it has been refunded. My MA return is still in the green. I don’t know what is going on there, filed and acknowledge received 1/28/18.
-
My amount has also been in black along with green since it appeared on the site. Not sure what it means either
-
hi, i am new to this forum. i have been doing my own and friends n family taxes for years. none of my info has changed in 10 yrs. never in my life have i waited so long for a state tax return. on WebFile for Income i had refund in 4 days of efiling. as of this morning i have my refund amount in green and the same credit in black. what does this mean? also, how do i get a transcript? thank you all for your participation. i know i am not alone in my frustration.
-
I just pulled my transcript it says processing date 2/19/2018 what does this mean? Does anyone know?
-
@natalie that notice is dated 2017, so unfortunately the information is outdated, although I really wish that was the case here! I did see on “where’s my refund on FB” that the IRS is processing & releasing funds that will be available for some people as early as tomorrow though! Fingers crossed for all of us “pathers”
-
I filed for the eitc on January 29th and I got my state on the 12th. Still waiting for federal. What do you guys mean when you say still in the green?
-
@Cassandra thank you for the info
-
@rosa. Last year I had a DDD for a Friday and it showed up Saturday am. Depends on your bank or Credit Union as it processes at night. Workers Credit Union. You can call your bank and ask if you have a wire transfer coming and and if so when? They are pretty good about giving this info.
-
@Cassandra, do you mind if I aks what bank you have?
-
@rosa. Last year I had a DDD for a Friday and it showed up Saturday am. Depends on your bank or Credit Union as it processes at night.
-
So annoyed. Mine were accepted 1/27 and my fiancé’s 2/1 and we are both still waiting……. never waited this long for state before
-
@Caitlin What bank do you use? My ddd is tomorrow but I have a feeling I wont get it until tuesday cause of the holiday
-
If I have the PATH message will my state not update either?
-
Lucky, No midday update here still green on mtc and still getting this on wmr. Your return was received on 18-Jan-2018 and is being processed. Please allow four to six weeks for processing, if you filed your return electronically. If you mailed your return please allow eight to ten weeks for processing.
-
They just updated again I did my taxes 2/12/18 I already got ddd of 2/20/18 I’m so excited… Its 11:27
-
damn, still green.
I was accepted and “being processed” since 1/29.
I turned green last Monday, 2/5
They tweaked my green amount by a few pennies this past Monday, 2/12.
And I’m still green.
So sad.
At least I’m starting to give up that it will be soon and because of that I don’t check the status and this forum several times a day. I don’t feel like I’m stalking my returns anymore :)
-
What does that mean ” most taxpayers”? As in one’s without the path act? I really need one of these before the 23rd!!
-
WHERE’S MY REFUND UPDATE FOR PATH ACT
WE WILL CONSTANTLY UPDATE THIS PAGE AS WE HAVE NEWS REGARDING THE PATH ACT TAX DELAY MESSAGE.
Update 2/19/2017 8am CST. The IRS made a statement recently that all of the PATH act taxpayers will receive their tax refund by February 27th, 2017. Most taxpayers should already have a tax refund date of either 2/22 or 2/23. Those who currently do not, should see one either Monday or Wednesday. -
Thanks @Anna. I was wondering when that message would drop. Last year it was on the 15th
-
The Path Message will be there till Saturday 02/17 the IRS updates there deposit dates on Wednesday’s and Saturday’s I was told… earliest deposit due to the holiday will be Feb 20th for anyone with the Path Message
I am still getting green ($) for my state and it sucks because I have coworkers that have got their state that have an EIC and ACTC but received theirs
-
I know people with the eic that have already recieved state, I dont think thats the case
-
NO updates here. Still hoping federal is like last year, got my return the 16th
-
I just tried to get a copy of the 2017 return and it wasn’t listed. I am wondering if that means the same as the irs. That it is not done processing.
-
I believe they do it throughout the day…some people have checked in the morning and nothing but check again at 10:00 and it’s changed
-
When do they usually update the MTC website? I know it’s daily but does anyone know if it’s at night or in the morning?
-
There are plenty of Us accepted in Jan without any credits still waiting as well
-
Someone posted the State of MA is not releasing any refunds that have EIC until after the Federal releases them. Don’t know how true that is. I do have EIC and have not received mine from either and no updates.
-
CARI
Same here direct deposit the 9th and still nothing. I called they have it but it can take 3-5 business days to clear they said
-
No update, super bummed. Also Federal still has PATH message.
-
Same 🙄
-
Just a reminder, Monday 2/19 Presidents’ Day is a Federal/Bank Holiday…
-
No change here. Filed and accepted on 1/28. Still in Green.
-
No changes for me. Really aggravating.
-
Not sure ifnit is an update but the amount is still in green but now that amount also says credit and is in black. No ddd yet.
-
Direct Deposit Date
-
Still nothing!
-
Woke up this morning with my state deposited into my account woohoo
-
Oh and what is DDD?
-
I have a MTC account and I don’t have anything green. Honestly I don’t really know how to read that little calculation they do. But on the “track my refund” page it says it was issued for direct deposit on the 9th and still nothing! (I filled the fifth so I was thinking I was quick and lucky, ha!) anyone else get it issued the 9th and not get it yet?
-
While doing my taxes I noticed that on my W2 my State number has changed to include a WTH before the numbers. Does anyone know why? I also noticed it on my dads w2.
-
Tomorrow is the day. I can feeeeeel it. ….probably not but one can dream.
-
The people who had their ddd last week, did yours come the day it stated the ddd was? Mine is supposed to be tomorrow, wondering if I’ll be disappointed or not
-
@k. Thanks for the info. Set it up. I just have amount in green as well
-
What does green in parenthesis mean?
-
@Renee, it’s on their account. I have a MTC account and that’s what its under.
-
What is this green everyone is talking about. Mine just says they received it the 26th a d it takes 4-6 weeks. No amount or anything other than what I typed in.
-
Filed with TurboTax on Jan 27. Accepted on Feb 2. Still green……..
-
Hmm, thats weird, yours updated midday?
Still no changes on my state here, I’ll be sure to update if I see any movement.
Last year, I got my federal the 16th, the day after the notorious “Feb. 15th Path Act”.
Maybe it will happen again this year.
One can only hope. -
So who has gotten their mass refund? I filed 2 days ago and already accepted the weird thing is I checked this morning and it stated they didn’t receive it but I checked at 12 and updated to accepted… Do they update all day instead of overnight?
-
Filed 1/12 mass accepted1/19 still no DDD just the amount in green. So frustrating!
-
MTC received 01/22 accepted 02/01 been in the green since, I called DOR due to seeing some people got an ID verification letter to see if I had anything on my refund. DOR told me there is no alerts or letter that have been attached to my refund. I asked rep that answered why I have not received it she said you are still right on time for the 4-6 weeks and there is a separate dept that control the refund. I see that someone people was told it was an auto system so I am confused. Online it says the IRS will start to update the Wheres My Refund for Federal as of 02/17 so I hope i get someone news from my state or federal soon
-
Has anyone still have there amount in green and why is it in green
-
Has anyone here gotten their refund sooner than the MTC account said
-
I have a direct deposit of 2/9 & still have nothing. It’s driving me nuts.
-
Stupid auto correct…I hope our federal updates tmrw and hope with a ddd! Fingers crossed. Hope something changes, I haven’t even received my state yet! Ridiculous, it’s been over 3 weeks since I was accepted!
-
Filed on the 28th, was accepted the 30th, have had processing since then. Post office says I’m receiving a letter from the Department of Revenue today but nothing on the Tax Connect page says i am…
I did our IDs to avoid this but I’m hoping that’s all it is! Anyone else have this happening?
-
Still green on MTC. Filed and accepted 1/29.
-
No update still sad going on 2 1/2 weeks like this something need ls to change in this system im goin to have my fed before my state and my fed was on hold
-
I hope our federal updates reel now hope it’s got a ddd. This is quite ridiculous with the state, still green with no ddd. Wth, filed Jan 20, accepted Jan 22!
-
Still green with no DDD.
-
I filed my brother’s on the 4th. He was accepted on the 5th and his paper check was sent out on the 8th and he receive it in the mail on the 12th they are really random with tax refunds. I think it should go in the order they come but that would be to much to ask….LOL
-
I was accepted by MA on 1/20. And still green. No letter. This is ridiculous, really. My best friend filed 2 weeks after me and got hers the 8th.
-
@Adam the only way I knew the letter was coming was my checking my refund status not on my personal mtc account but on the regular page where you can check you status of refund and it says at the bottom that a letter went on on 2/7/18
-
@JJ
Yes I filed through TT and it gave me the option for added verification to enter my drivers license number. I was hoping since I did that it would speed up the process but nope still waiting lol -
I just called the the DOR and asked if I should have received a letter regarding verifying my identity as my mail is not always delivered to me with different mail carriers. It did get her to check my account and she stated that I was not sent a verification letter and should receive my refund shortly. It was a way to getting them to look into my account, Number I called was 617-887-6367. Usually they just dust you off, I insisted they check. Good Luck Everyone…
-
Also when I filed I had to put id on forms. Did anyone else half to?
-
Filed and accepted 2/6 still in green with no updates. Just the 4 to 6 weeks to process message.
-
Rosa,
Did you get notified that letter was coming or did it just show up. I think they may be verifying a lot of people -
@natalie I filed and was accepted on 1/27
-
I didn’t file/get accepted until 2/1 and I’m still waiting to update so don’t think it matters when you file…I do think they update throughout the day tho but not getting my hopes up..last year I didn’t update until my federal updated and think that’s going to happen again so I’m not expecting a dd until next week at this point
-
Update I filed 1/22/18 and accepted same day. I had my mass refund in green for almost 2 weeks and then I received a letter with a code to verify my identity on monday 2/12/18, i did that online same day and today my amount finally went black and I have a DDD of 2/16/18, no change on the federal but I am hearing they are gonna start processing all of those eic and child credits tomorrow so hopefully we see changes tomorrow.
-
Still no update for me also
-
No change here still green.
-
@Terri, when did you file, Thanks
-
No change here. Still green.
-
Still in green and no update here either.
-
Seems to be less people commenting. Perhaps that means they are received theirs, which is a good thing. If I get any change or receive mine I will post it so other know.
-
No updates still green. Accepted 1/28. Next year I will wait to file until after February 2nd. Seems they did those first. I think if there are problems with your return you would see Alerts or correspondence, I have none.
-
No updates here, still in green
-
No updates here, still in green
-
The “wheres my refund” page says my state refund was issued this past Friday, and to give it 3-5 business days to be deposited. But no definitive deposit date… Anybody experience this?
-
My friend efiled the 2/1 and got her DDD on the 9th I filed the 9th and still says processing. Last year it took exactly 60 days for me to receive my refund due to documents they wanted from that new security measure they’re taking so let’s see if anything changes in the morning.
-
I hope we all have updates tmrw. And hopefully Thursday us eic and actc filers get an update. Does anybody know if we will or should update Thurs the 15th for our federal? I hope so! Good night Mass filers. Let’s all hope for an update in am, for our state . Plz post if you get an update, hopefully with a DDD!
-
Kev,
Multiple people on here including myself were told that it’s automated and luck of the draw. Maybe they should all be on the same page when speaking to people to avoid this -
How do you know that DOR is pulling random names out of the hat to do refunds?
More than likely, there are a lot of unique situations that can cause a delay in a refund. On top of that, the crush of “opening day” for filing causes a backlog that will take time to work through.
For the ones that are free and clear and are straight forward with no issues that need to be rechecked, they may very well have an algorithm they use to determine where in line a refund will fall.
I want mine as soon as the next person, but DOR says 4-6 weeks to get your refund, that’s all we really know. And in my case, it hasn’t been 4 weeks yet; I’m on coming up on week 3.
-
My refund amount is in green but in parenthesis like (number) …..No – sign
-
Wonder if this has something to do with slow refunds. By Joshua Miller GLOBE STAFF FEBRUARY 13, 2018
A data snafu on a state tax portal allowed some companies to view other business’ names, federal employer identification numbers, and how much they paid in taxes, according to an email sent out by a payroll, benefits and HR company and forwarded to the Globe.The email from Gusto said the Massachusetts Department of Revenue recently made changes to its business taxpayer portal, which is called MassTaxConnect. Those shifts, the email said, “erroneously permitted business taxpayers to view files containing company names, federal employer identification numbers (FEINs), and tax payment amounts for companies like yours. As a result, people outside your company could see your company data.”
-
What’s upsetting is the incompetence at the DOR. Why draw numbers out of a hat. That’s literally what they are doing unless it’s more nefarious than that and they are giving preferential treatment to certain individuals. I mean its not like it happened at the IRS…..oh wait, it did
-
It’s hard to upset with the state when it clearly says the turn around time is 4-6 weeks for e-filed returns.
It is frustrating when other people get it before us when they filed later, but they are outliers.
Most everyone is still probably less than 4 weeks since it was accepted by the state.
-
Also, I had someone at the DOR tell me that I should be happy that I am getting a refund and to give it time with the new system
Actually it’s my money that I overpaid so be more transparent and just give me an answerElon Musk is flying cars and shit in space and Mass DOR can’t even refund properly
-
I got my federal 8 days ago. I have been in green with the state since 1/28. All they say is it’s random when you will get your direct deposit but give it 4-6 weeks maybe 60 days or maybe we don’t even know. This system is a disaster. It should be like federal (refunds process in order of accept date).
-
Seriously frusterated! Going on almost 3 weeks since return was accepted and nothing. I thought maybe it was the EIC thing but there are others not claiming it who still have yet to get there refund. This will be the first time ever I will most likely get my federal before my state. Great job MA.
-
Anyone get any DDD update today?
Mine was green a week ago, still green and still nothing. -
This process is so annoying!!!!!!!!!!!! Just give me MY money!!!!
-
Just called the DOR, alls they could say is its processing. When I asked why other people have already gotten theirs, I was told, “That’s irrelevant”.
Thanks for the info….nott
-
@Natalie
I filed in whole dollars. It was a whole dollar return until this morning when it changed to xxx.60
All I could figure is that I owed a few dollars from last year and they tacked on some interest over night.
-
@Katie. Congrats. I filed earlier was accepted by the 26th and still waiting. It’s been in the green for 4 business days. I hope tomorrow I get an update.
-
Jackie, I was told whichever is deposited first it will come out of, but I did H&R. However, someone did comment on here saying they received their state and there was no advance taken out yet. Also, H&R initially told me it comes from federal, then when I called they said whichever comes first. It would be nice to know definitively.
-
Does anybody know if Jackson Hewitt fees are taken out of state or federal refund? Also what about the cash advance I got?
-
@Kev. No cents on returns all whole dollar amounts. Did you file with dollars and cents? That would hold up your return.
-
Yikes! My green refund got changed by like 40 cents. I wonder why and I wonder if that means that they are closer to getting it back to me.
Another day of stalking my returns……
-
I just call MA Revenue, stated it’s luck of the draw as to who gets their refund next. Pretty ignorant answer. Are they throwing darts to see who gets’ their refund next. Not fair to early filers.
-
The twitter handle is @MassRevenue :)
-
Last year I received mine 2 day before at 12:30 in the after noon so with that being said i think they updated throughout the day .. that would be nice if thats the case and also didnt see the update until after I already had my refund… DOR workers dont even know whats going on its sad 😭
-
Is there a possibility that we may update tmrw and possibly have a ddd for Friday?
-
No update for me, last year my ddd was on a Friday and think I updated on wed and got it on a Thur cause card released it early. So hoping to get updates for both Fed and state tomorrow…I’m hoping lol…I think they are making me crazy and I’m trying to make sense of it and rationalize lol
-
OMG Dee, do they have a twitter?!
-
Yah, I got mine Feb 10th last year. I just dont think its right that we have been waiting all this time, and people who just filed last week are getting their money. Ass backwards if you ask me.
-
Still nothing here either. Filed1/18 Kinda fricken BS. Going to start trolling DOR on twitter…..
-
Well I am glad I found this site, at least I am not the only person going through this frustration. Filed & received by MA 1/26 accepted 2/2 been sitting green since 2/5. Sent a msg through MTC, not even a response. I give up! Last year I was one of the lucky ones, filed & accepted 1/27 had my refund in my account 1/31… must be karma since everyone else was waiting months last year!
-
I think they update over night, someone posted a message from the MTC site saying that.
-
No updates here, this is ridiculous!! Probably gonna have my federal before state!
-
Still no update for me either. Accepted Jan 22. I don’t get it. U would think think they would go by date accepted, but obviously not. This frickin sux. Need my refund bad! Think if we call and say we’re in a financial hardship that they’d move things along? Lol Prolly not! And does anybody know if they update thru out the day?
-
What a system they have here. Filed a simple return with no credits which was accepted in Jan and still nothing.
-
Finally a ddd of 2/15
-
Checked mtc and where’s my refund. Ddd for 2/15. Thank god!
-
I just checked my mtc account and it went from green balance to black zero balance..checked my refunds tab and I have a dd for Feb 15th. I’m also eic and act. I was accepted on 2-1 so after a long wait it’s finally on it’s way!
-
Still green talk to someone at the DOR said everything is randomly and automatically done they have no control over the time frame people get their refund …. last year didn’t receive my refund until may for a id verification. Smh was hoping this year would be different and quicker
-
No updates this morning…sent an e message asking why via mass tax connect
-
Still no update this at this time this evening. But wow I’m very shocked that someone has already received their return via check!
-
Accepted the 22nd and haven’t seen any movement at all. Amount still in green. Beyond frustrated but this happened to me last year too. Didn’t end up getting it till after my federal on the 28th if February. Yet like some have said I know people who filed just w week ago with almost identical returns to mine and they’ve gotten their money already.
-
Lol Adam, super annoyed is putting it lightly. I filed Jan 20, accepted Jan22, and still sitting with green amount on mtc. Sooo supposedly it’s stilllllll processing. My neighbor filed a week after me and already got her return. Our returns are identical, HoH and 1 dependant, same employer. Both of us, same return for years now. Except I went to JH this year instead of our own tax lady. What the heck!
-
Thank you Natalie
-
I just saw this on MTC. When will changes to my account take effect?
MassTaxConnect is available 365 days a year, 24 hours a day. Your account is updated each night to include mailing address changes, and the processing of returns and payments. A payment may take several days to process. -
Ok, so do we know if Mass only updates in the AM? and where is the DDD located? Has anyone received their refund without a DDD?
-
I wish you didn’t post that. I’m supper annoyed now haha. I mean one would think that it should go by acceptance date unless you have some unusual return. My wife and I have been waiting for weeks and ours are simple
-
Well my dad did his state two days ago. He has a direct deposit date for tomorrow. This is so not right…going on 3 weeks for me
-
Is there a certain time they uodate? Is it only in the am?
-
I know, I am scratching my head since I filed hers three days after mine. They always say direct deposit is quicker. She got an update on 2/8 saying her check was issued and it came in the mail today. Yet mine shows filed and accepted on 1/26 and I’ve been sitting on green for 2 weeks now. Beyond frusterated
-
Lucky person to already have gotten a paper check! Kudos to them. But what about us e-filers, wth! Mine still says processing. Also getting frustrated here! Lol Mass has no problem taking their money, but darn, when they need to pay out they take their sweet a** time!
-
I am highly frustrated, as this is my forst time doing a state return.. It says online I was accepted 1/30, but TT says 2/02 and MA just says wait 4-6 weeks… Like, how long does this ish takes!?
-
Getting kinda frustrated. Accepted 1/24 by H and R block, just a green balance on my account still. How does someone already have a paper check?! Thats insane!
-
So filed my mass return on 1/26 with TT have DD. My daughter filed 1/29 with TT and getting paper check. Mine is still saying processing with balance in green. My daughter got her paper check today. Seriously, not sure what is going on this year.
-
Filed 1/29 TT
Accepted 2/2
Amount green on mass tax connect for the past week . They are slower than ever. They never were this slow before. -
I wonder what is taking MA so long to process this year’s returns. It always took a week for me to receive it. I hope they can do a surprise deposit for me on Wed, Thurs, or Fri as I’m going on a mini vacation with my boys before their Feb vaca starts.
-
my refund is black and I have no DDD. i was accepted on 2/2.. :-(
-
I wouldnt worry too much about being green on MTC. Mine never turned green and I received my DD this am.
I just checked using the MA Where’s my refund tool.Hope this helps…
-
@K I don’t know, I wish I knew. I’ve been sitting on a green refund since early last week :/ My refund amount already shows my offset for my tax due from last year. They just need to start the process of giving it to me :)
-
If it turns to black then your return has been processed and you should have a ddd or information. If you read through the comments, many of us are sitting green for a while and some for a day or two. There is no timeframe
-
When does it go from green to black? IE how long does it take to go from green to black. It’s been green since last thursday for me.
-
Yes Jackie on mtc this morning. Around 10am. I cant remember how to check ddd day.
-
?…when a ddd is available will it say on the mtc website where u sign in with username and password?
-
@Georgia. Sorry, I just realized u said updated to green so I’m assuming on mtc is where u updated.
-
@Georgia. Did u update this am? On mtc or the page where u enter ur s.s # and refund amount?
-
No I did not have either.
-
@kyle for your federal did you file the etc and child credits
-
I finally updated to green! Now more freaking waiting! No DDD.
-
Ya I filed early last year and thought that’s why it took so long, I didn’t file until February 1st this year though and I’m still waiting, hopefully it’ll change and I won’t be waiting until the 23rd again but idk…wish there was some type of pattern but you just never know
-
Just to update everyone. I was accepted by Mass on the feb 5th had a DD of the 9th and got it this morning. My federal I was accepted on 1/24 and just got a DD of 2/14. I will never file early again it seems like they throw you to the back of the line. Good luck everyone.
-
No update yet here either. Filed Jan 20, accepted Jan 22, amount still green.
-
Ya I got mine on the 23rd last year, was hoping to get it sooner but it’s not looking good
-
Still no update for me also. I believe last year I got it after my federal so sometime after the 23rd. Was hoping to get it sooner this year. Hopefully we all update soon!
-
Was able to get on using a different browser. Still sitting green. Will check again at 10.
-
I cannot get onto MTC. Im getting this message..
The requested URL was rejected. Please consult with your administrator.Your support ID is: 768267124434641991.
-
Hopefully for us in green we can see some updates. I could use my refund asap
-
JB received his this am. I filed & MA received 1/29, been green all last week, no DDD yet. I believe they update all day, You can also check on the phone which I believes updates before the on line. 800-392-6089 – follow the prompts.
-
Anybody get an update yet?
-
@Kionna….we are all set today!
To recap for state: filed and accepted 1/24. Received DDD of 2/9. My bank took a little longer to process but all was cleared and available this morning 2/12.
Fed…also e filed and accepted 1/24. Still waiting for the PATH message to go away. I’m hoping over the next 2 weeks I see some movement. Last year filed around the same time, and went through the same delay. Received a DDD of 2/23.
-
just for reference for others
Filed via TT on 1/29
received and processed 1/29 according to Mass
Refund amount has been green all last week.
My green refund amount shows the correct offset from taxes due from last yearNo DDD yet
and no deposit yetHopefully early this week. I don’t normally get money back from the state but it sounds like MA processes refunds pretty quick.
-
I hope tmrw we will all have an update. Will it update on a Monday tho? Hope we all see our refunds soon! Plz post an update if anybody gets one, I will too. Thanks
-
Tmrw will be 3 weeks since state accepted my refund, filed with JH on Jan20, state says accepted Jan22.
-
I don’t think it’s just Jackson Hewitt, I filed with turbo tax and I’m still waiting…I think they’ll be an update tomorrow…last year I waited just about a month too, don’t know why some get it faster than others
-
It is the state not who you filed with. Once the state accepts it, its on them. A lot of us have been waiting for 2 weeks
-
I will never file with Jackson Hewitt again, this is the longest I’ve waited for state refund. Accepted Jan.22. Still processing. Think we will get an update tmrw, on a Monday? Anyone else file with Jackson Hewitt and get or not get their refund yet, or even a ddd?
-
Nothing today JB. Fingers crossed for Monday.
-
There are like 5 states that do recognize lincolns birthday as a state holiday, not Massachusetts though.
-
Lincolns birthday is not a Mass state holiday, neither a federal holiday. However Presidents day is both state and federal. BTW refund still showing green with no ddd, hoping Monday for an update for those with no ddd like me
-
Don’t think they consider the 12th a holiday…the 19th president day believe they do tho
-
Had a DDD for 2/9…still nothing in my bank yet. Hoping for Monday.
-
Still in the green. Question, but is DOR open the 12th? We’re out of state now but the new state we’re in considers Lincoln’s Birthday a holiday.
-
I think a lot of people will update Monday
-
@Sunnydai617 same here
-
@kionna …nothing for me yet. You?
Looking like it’s Monday 😣 -
Had a DDD of yesterday and received it in my TD Bank account today.
-
My MTC shows my refund amount as a credit in black and the the amount underneath in green as a balance…anybody else have this?
-
Just kidding I was look at Jan not feb…I got it on a Thur but think my ddd was for that Friday…think I updated beginning that week mon the 21st or maybe tue 22nd
-
Me and my boyfriends federal updated to the path message this morning! At least some movement..hoping the state does some type of movement, I know last year I recieved it on Mon the 23rd but don’t remember if I had a update or what my ddd was
-
Well, I doubt MTC will update on a weekend. I’ll be back Monday morning ,hopefully with good news.
-
…Saturday deposits.
-
Ok J B. I’ll let ya know. Not sure they do Satu
-
It was accepted on the 26th. Any idea how long it should take to process? We have EITC and the child credit.
-
@Kionna…Same bank for me too.
Last 2 years, the money was there the day after DDD.
But the DDD was a Monday last year and funds were available on Tuesday. Hoping it hits tomorrow morning.
Keep me posted on yours. -
Also have DDD of Feb 9. Filed taxact Jan 26, accepted the 29th. Santander. Nothing hit account yet. Filed HH, and child credit.
-
I had a DD of today 2/9/18 and have it going to a Turbo Card via Tirbo Tax. I have not seen it hit my account yet. Just wondering if anyone else is in the same situation or knows when Massachusetts DD actually hit you account?
-
Filed with H&R Block. Was accepted 1/27 and is showing in green but no DDD still.
-
I filed through TT and was accepted 2/2 and still nothing…I have the amount in green but besides that nothing has changed
-
I submitted my MA tax form 2/5 and it was accepted 2/6. Today (2/9) when I checked around noon it changed status to: “Your refund was issued by direct deposit on 13-Feb-2018. Please allow 3-5 business days for the refund to be deposited, and check with your bank to confirm.” Really fast turn around!
-
I was in green since Monday and I got a DDD this morning. I filed with TurboTax and it’s going to my bank account.
-
Are transcripts only for federal return or can u get transcripts for state also?
-
@Sara. When did urs update with a ddd? And who did u file ur taxes thru? Turbo tax, Jacksonville Hewitt, etc. And is urs going into ur bank account or prepaid card thing? Filed mine with Jacksonville Hewitt Jan 20, state accepted Jan 22.
-
@Sara .. when did you get your ddd ?
-
My wife and I filed with turbo tax and both were accepted on 1/28. We have simple returns with no credits and have been sitting in the green for a week.
-
Filed and accepted 1-29 got a DDD of 2/13
-
Did anyone file with Jacksonville Hewitt and get the American express serve card, and have u gotten a ddd or even a deposit yet?
-
If anyone gets a ddd please post obviously I know ppl got one today I was not one of the lucky ones but I’m hoping I’m in round 2 lol I usually only wait a week and I guess this year they decided to make me wait
-
Got my MA DDD today in the bank!
Also-They take about $300 away from me because I liive in NH but work in Mass. I get it-Sort of, but when I lived in MASS but tax refund was much larger. -
@ Jackie E, well that is good to know, much easier then mine. No im having it put in my checking account.
-
@Rosa. Dor said the letter I got was normal, that they send u that when u first register and make an account with MTc. she said everything looks good for my return. Hope I see refund soon. Plz post when u get a ddd or ur refund. And r u getting it back on American express serve card?
-
@Jackie E wow that is very weird let me know how that goes.
-
@rosa. I pulled up the letter on my PDF viewer, all it says is that they created a master administrator account for me. It doesn’t say anything about going on the website and verifying anything. I’m gonna call the number on the letter and ask what it is about. Type for ur help.
-
@Jackie E I called DOR the letter sent is to verify your identity once you get the letter is gives you steps to do on MTC to verify your identity and then they release your refund. Hope this helps.
-
@Rosa. Keep me posted plz. Also opted to have ddd on American express serve card. This is the longest I’ve waited for state refund. Ugh!
-
Stupid auto correct. no ddd yet. Wth
-
@Jackie thanks but mine says there is no alerts and mine is still green. I also got accepted on 1/22/18 with Jackson Hewitt. I am going to call DOR and see if they can give me any info. I will keep you updated.
-
-
@Rosa… I seen it under al
-
I definitely should have had mine yesterday but due to incompetence at h&r block my money is going to there bank first for fees. I specifically asked them to take it from my federal and they didn’t do what I asked. It was my first and last time using them.
-
My ddd is fo today 2/9, but my bank shows a pending deposit for 2/12, Monday.
-
Anyone has a ddd for today and still not there ??
I requested for my return to be deposited into my citizens bank ! -
Green means that it’s processing and that is the amount due to you According to your filed return. When it is processed, it turns to a black zero and at that point you should have a DDD
-
Where is everyone seeing their refund amount in green? I have an MTC account and it was never green. Already received DDD for today, but does the color even mean anything?
-
Mine is still green since Monday, too. Going to Florida in a week. Would like to have at least my state by then. Smh
-
Ugh mine did still green and has been since Monday … IDK what green means but I wish they would just do mine already !
-
As far as everyone with a DDD of 2/9 MA sent out refunds to banks yesterday (thats why i received the pending deposit notification). I have not received my deposit yet but Its only 755am. Im thinking it will be tonight sometime like they do with my paycheck
-
@kerry check your status. If its still green they are still processing. Once they set a ddd the number will go back to $0
-
Hey guys. I had DDD of today, 2/9 and got mine on the H&R Block Emerald Card this morning at like 4am. Now waitint on fed return like everyone else..ATCC on PATH.
Also, i still owe them for the advance I got in November. They didnt take it from the state return like everyone had said they’d do. -
Every bank is different in regards to processing times. Worst case scenario…everyone is happy (with MA State) by Tuesday. For me, if the DDD is 2/9, the actual money will be there the next business day. Whereas Fed…is there by 2am on the DDD.
Good luck everyone! -
Still green here. :(
-
Had a DDD for 2/9/18 and checked my bank account but it’s still not there…went on the website and it said it was deposited but to allow 3-5 business days, I’ve never had this problem before and I know a few people who also had a DDD for today and received theirs
-
Anyone had TD Bank? DDD for today and still haven’t received it.
-
Update got my Massachusetts state fund in bank account 2/9 ddd thank goodness now jus waiting for federal both credits
-
For those with a ddd for state, when did you file? I filed 26th, accepted & processed 29th. I wonder why mine is taking so long when it usually takes a week.
-
@amanda mine is still in green what does that mean
-
How do you get a pending deposit notice? I’ve never had a pending deposit notice. My bank says they don’t hold deposits.
-
Ugh so for whatever reason when i post on here it messes up my words! 😂 i have a DDD of 2/9 on MTC and i received my pending deposit notification like 3 hrs ago. Will have my deposit some time tomorrow****
-
@Czarface i received my pending deposit notification 3 hrs ago. Will have it at simeand point tomorrow
-
@czarface I had the same issue here, I was pissed when I found out.they told me federal when I first asked.
-
Looked back at last years State, accepted 1/28 DD 2/7 which if I look at some peoples DDD of 2/9 is exactly what it came out to. Accepted 2/3, showed green 2/6. TT said accepted 2/5 but MTC shows 2/3 which is the date we did them on TT but it was a Saturday.
-
How long has yours been on the () Green? Mine is 4 days
-
My MA has been on the green with brackets for about 4 days and it says processing when you call the number it says processing could take 60 days.
-
Anyone get a deposit yet? I didn’t realize that h&r block is taking fees from my state instead of my federal. Found that out today. I’m trying to gauge a time frame but can’t find anything online at all.
-
@rosa it hasn’t done anything to it. I think it’s a common letter that is sent out when you make an account on the website. I still have my amount in green with ()
-
@ tiffany did getting the letter affect your refund, are you still waiting on it?
-
@jackie I believe that’s from registrating on the mass tax connect. I got the same thing and was able to read the letter and it’s just has to do with making an account
-
@ JAckie where are you seeing the letter part on MTC, I dont see it anywhere on mine but on the other wbesite where you can check your refund it says a letter was sent to me.
-
Today on mtc it says a letter was sent to me, the subject says notice of registration. Does anybody know what this means? My amount is still green in (). Ugggh. Hoping I will a ddd soon! Called number and still says processing. Please help
-
ok so my MTC is still () green but the telephone number says my information is incorrect and the check status page says a letter went out. None of this makes sense
-
@radshakgirl: well that’s good to know, hopefully I’ll get a ddd soon
-
@SamanthaFromMa: I don’t think the mass. State has anything to do with the path. I haven’t updated to path yet and my state got approved yesterday saying it was issued on the 9th.
-
I have the Path message and my Fed transcripts have a processing date of 2/12/2018. The past few years the state has given me a hard time. I have been audited twice and have had to ID verify.
-
I’m wondering if you need the path message before you get a ddd for state? I haven’t had a update for state but also haven’t got the path message yet
-
Anyone here that got the Feb 9th date have a netspend or other Prepaid card that deposits early?
-
I don’t think there is any method to this madness. Some people who got accepted far after us with tons of credits are getting 2/9 deposits and others that are simple returns are waiting
-
My results are the same as everyone else. Claimed EITC and ACTC credits.Fed&State Efiled 1/24 and accepted by IRS & MA that day.
State: Received message no info on file until 2/5. Tuesday morning (2/6) received update that return was processing. Checked again last night around 8pm and was updated again with DDD 2/9.
Last year, my MA refund had a DDD of 2/12 and received in bank on 2/13.
I’m hoping the weekend doesn’t delay the refund…either way should be cleared by Monday or Tuesday.IRS: 1/29 Received PATH message with no status update. Received tax return transctipt but no date of refund listed.
Last year received efile accepted 1/24 and received Fed 2/23. -
MTC says they are doing maintenance on Sun. Maybe those of us who have been sitting pretty will have an update on Monday.
-
any updates on MA refund? i have the ($$) in green and its been sitting like that since monday. anyone know how long it may take the get refund?
-
This morning I received notification that my state taxes were offset due to my husband owing child support. He didn’t work last yr. I did.
I am sending the spousal for in today. Does anyone know roughly how long it will take to get my $? -
No update for me, maybe later on it’ll change 🤞
-
@Amanda, Thank you for the info. Now my MTC says a letter was mailed for additional information. Does anyone know what that means?
-
Filed 1/27
Went to green on the mtc last week
Still no update after that
Last year I didn’t get them till February 27 -
No update for me……ugg…
-
Anyone out there that hasn’t even been approved yet? I feel so alone!
-
Mine was green yeterday today I was given a DDD of Feb 9. My refund was offset.. To find your refund DDD log into the site at the bottom of the first page click on where it says Personal Income Tax. It is at the bottom left of the page and is clickable in blue… Once you click that there will be a spot to click at the bottom right of the page which says refund. If you click that it will show DDD from last year (if you had one) and from this year if you have been issued one.
My refund was first show in green when it was done processing and then switched to 0 when I was issued a DDD. -
My state return was accepted on 1/30/2018 Mass Tax Connect updated to show a green amount in parentheses on 2/1/2018. This morning I used the check refund tab (instead of logging in) and it shows a DDD of Feb 9th. I have two dependents and I am claiming the EIC and ACTC credits. I hope this helps!
** My federal was accepted on 1/30/2018 as well. WMR still shows one bar, no Path message yet. My return transcript shows a notice has been sent with a date of 2/19/2018. I’m assuming that is the path act notice.
-
Seeing as everybody is in the same boat as I am with the green amount in the parentheses. Where did some of y’all see the ddd for state?? Mine was accepted the 29th and I’m hoping it’ll be deposited Friday. Last year I filed the 31st of Jan and received it Feb 9th. Fingers crossed for everyone to receive their refunds soon! =)
-
Does anyone know what green amount mean?
-
@CAO This is the link to the ma refund status tool. It works the same as the irs one if you’ve used it. https://mtc.dor.state.ma.us/mtc/?Link=REFUND
-
Can someone explain where they find or locate their DDD?? My MTC amount was green and now it zero and in black, what does that mean?
-
Does anybody know if Mass does deposits everyday or just certain days of the week? My amount shows in green with ( ) around it. Does this mean I should get a deposit date soon or hopefully even a deposit before it updates? Any help is much appreciated.
-
Does the amount in green inside prentices mean they approved and and are about to send?
-
Filed 1/28 accepted same day called state hotline have a ddd for 2/9/2018 Thank goodness thats a relief so for all my MA residents state will b approved soon I have both credit but has nothing to do with getting state still processing for federal will jus have to wait until 2/15
-
Well fellow Massholes heres hoping it updates tomorrow.
I was audited last year and that was a nightmare.
It seems to be going smoother. We shall see. -
Around the 12th would be great, but I thought by law they couldn’t realease funds until after the 15th? I got my federal the 16th last year.
-
@rosa my transcript shows a date of 2/12 but people have been saying its a processing date. But because my transcripts werent blank they are already finished processing my return. So its possible the 12th could be my ddd (if it updates this wkend ill let u know) or the 12th could be when ill see a change and a ddd
-
@rosa sorry just realized you asked about federal. I filed 1/19, accepted 1/19. Im not sure if the 2/12 date is my actual ddd but im positive i will have it next wk. The 12th might be when ill have an update for a ddd. Ill post when i know
-
@rosa i filed the 26th when tt allowed me to. I wasnt accepted until the 2nd. And yes i claimed all child credits. I have the path act message for my federal.
-
I still wouldn’t trust this system(MTC) in terms of updates. You may just get a deposit without an update. My wife’s MTC shows her return () green and 2017 filed but when she tries WMR or the hotline it says not received
-
FYI I’m 99% sure that state has nothing to do with the path act.
-
@ Amanda, When did you file your federal and did you claim EIC and child tax credits?
-
For everyone’s that’s got a ddd, when did you file?
-
Had an update this morning with a DDD of 2/9! I have the path message for federal but i ordered my account and refund transcriptsast wk and got them in the mail monday and shows a ddd of 2/12
-
I had amount in green last night on MTC and today it’s $0 in black. I called and went online and still says pending,
-
My educated guess is that MA is releasing refunds throughout the day and that those who still see the green amounts will likely change to DDD sometime today or tonight. Hopefully! It’s nice to see that people with dependents and EIC for MA are already seeing DDD’s. Mine still shows green, but will check tonight.
-
I hope it changes soon
-
Maybe it will show a DD after lunch? One can hope.
I claimed EIC also.
-
Everyone that has gotten a Ddd and have the credits, is your federal showing the path message already? My bars went missing so waiting to see the path message
-
My status changed for the 9th also. I have the PATH for federal. Hopefully since I have NetSpend I’ll get it today. I get my paycheck on NetSpend also and I get paid 2 days early.
-
I have CTC and EIC, 2 dependents, married filing jointly have PATH message on my federal but got a DDD of the 9th on my state return
-
Update-My State changed to a DDD of 02/09/2018! The green refund amount has gone away..
I do not claim any credits or PATH etc, etc. Hasn’t hit the bank account yet-probably tonight or tomorrow night.
-
I claimed 3 dependants no extra credits though just regular child tax credit
-
Got my federal today. Nothing changed on MTC. Hopefully it does today. I noticed last year some people got their money before it updated so we will see
-
I just checked my MA Via MTC and have a DDD of 02/09 and for federal i have the path message been having it since 01/24
-
I know wonder if the people who have got a ddd if they are on the path
-
No updates for me
-
People saying they now have a direct deposit date, did you claim any dependents??
-
Does mass tax connect update all day
-
MA tax was accepted on Monday 2/5. Today it says deposit on 2/9 Friday.
-
Accepted Feb 2.
Yesterday amount was green and in parenthesis
Today amount was ZERO and black
Called the hotline, deposit date of the 9th.
First time state came before fed! -
Nothing yet here mine was received Jan 22nd. Just the usual 4-6 weeks to process message
-
Nothing yet here. Mine was recieved the 24th.
-
No update yet for me.
-
guys, check your WMR now. I checked it at 6 am and nothing…checked again at 745 after coming on here, and i got a deposit date
-
Check wmr 7 AM today, says my refund has been deposited for Feb 9th. Hoping to see it Friday! Good luck everybody. Filed 1/29, accepted 2/1
-
Last year mine was due to be deposited on a Tue but got it Mon…think they deposit mon, tue, Thur , and fridays…wonder if they wait until after the federal is done before they issue it, that’s how it was with a lot of people last year although they did try saying it was a new system and that’s why it was taking so long
-
So I sounds like most people have theirs in green but with no delivery date. Czarface last year they were delivered on a Thursday. I remember getting a delivery date before it was delivered. I’m not sure who Adam is talking to but when I call they are very polite but say they have no answers please wait the 4-6 weeks before calling. And also last year I waited almost a month to get mine back.
-
Last year I didn’t get it until the 23rd, I got my federal the 20th…so I’m just gonna guess that the state ain’t coming until around the 20th…there were a couple people who got it on the 9th last year tho…hard to predict
-
I’m starting to get worried my was accepted on the 29th and no update from processing
-
Hi. Mine is the same as everyone else. I at first could not get any information but now it shows my refund amount in green ready to go. I remember last year it took longer than i thought It would. Last year I filed earlier (jan 25) and i got paid Feb 25. This year I filed jan 28. It appears I am good to go for everything but issuing me my refund. It seems from reading through this that nobody has been issued a refund yet. I feel from everything that I have read through that I am “on deck” and should get paid as soon as people start getting paid….
-
Just checked my mtc and also green with the ($$$). I noticed on my previous years refund it turned black once it was already sent. Could be wrong. Just, something I noticed
-
I just created an account on MTC. I can see my refund amount in ( ), and it is green. It shows in 2 different places, both are green with ( ). Is this a good thing, meaning i should get my refund soon? I’m really hoping that is what it means. Fingers crossed :-) Ty for ur help.
-
Anyone remember what day of the week you got your refund previous years? I’m trying to gauge a possible timeline.
-
Thanks Adam! Just checked on our MTC account and have the green too. I remember last year it being fairly quick once we had that. We have a military credit union too, so as soon as ours posts to the account, I’ll update. We have the benefit of being in a different time zone right now, so everything always updates mid evening for us lol.
-
Let’s hope for something. I do have it linked to an account that gives me the money the second it receives direct deposit information sometimes days early (military checking account) The second MTC passes that through the fed, I will know
-
Ok so filed 1/19 with TaxSlayer. Already received my federal DD 2/5. Anyways, MassTaxConnect says my return was received 1/31 and is being processed. I’m also seeing my refund amount in green font and in parentheses. Hopefully I’ll see that DD soon, will keep y’all posted
-
It’s been a week and nothing but it’s being processed!!
-
Last year mine was deposited on a Monday, the 23rd, I do have a card that deposits early so my DDD was most likely a diff day
-
Last year MTC updated to say processing on a Monday then on Wednesday it updated to say DDD and on Thursday it was in my account. I’m hoping that the same holds true this year because this morning it finally said processing after all weekend saying no refund.
-
MTC showing a green () fir me as well. Is there a specific day of the week Ma does refunds?
-
Last year I had to do some verification of address because i moved.
I too have parentheses (green.00) but no negative sign so I’m hoping it’s in my account in a few days! -
@Adam…ya that’s how it was last year too except there was a – in front of it…and ya think I probably found it around the 3rd and stayed that way until I got my deposit…last year it happened to some people and they got there refund on the 9th, so think it just depends…It was a new system last year so maybe they are used to it this year and it’ll run smoother, I’d love to have my refund any day!
-
When a number has () like (2564.00) that means its negative. It does not have to have an actual negative sign in front of it. To further see, you can click into the year and it shows the taxes (not in green). The neg credit in green and then the balance in green due if you are due a refund otherwise it is not in green. I got someone on the phone and asked.
It took that long last year once you saw it in your account as a balance?
-
@ Adam, I know last year people seen a neg sign in front of the amount in green…hopefully what your saying is true! Last year it took like a month to get mine
-
Anyone know if h and r can take fees and refund advance out of state?
-
Yes it has the () around it meaning negative which is to be credited to my bank account. It’s good to go so hopefully they aren’t delaying deposits and I will see it tomorrow or the next day. I do know most of the system is automated (your return isn’t actually reviewed the first time around unless there is a form missing and stuff like that). They told me if it has been accepted and days go by without seeing a balance in Mass Connect, it is being reviewed. If you see the balance, it is ready to go to your bank account
-
@Adam did your amount have a negative in front? I could be wrong but I thought if the amount had a negative it was good to go. Not sure though.
-
I like what Adam is saying!
-
Shows the green amount to be sent to me in mass connect. My past experience is once that balance shows in green it was in my account in a day or two. I will update and hope others do on here. Fingers crossed
-
My state was approved 2/2/18 and finally the status updated to processing and shows my refund as the balance. Fingers crossed i get it SOON!
-
@czarface on my account it says credit then the amount, then underneath balance and the same amount, so im hoping that means smoething
-
Anyone know what the green balance amount means? Is it a credit or what? I’m hoping it’s gonna be here soon!
-
Hello, new here. I filed with H&R and the emerald card, It says today that return was received 1/24 and it is being processed. Hopefully soon!
-
Mine was received on 1/29 no update.
-
@Samantha-I’m seeing the same exact update as you including the green balance of the refund.
Push that over to me Massachusetts! -
Filed with TurboTax on 1/27 and accepted according to TurboTax on 2/2. This morning, 2/5, was, accepted on the “where’s my MA refund” page.
-
Just checked my state and it finally says, “Your return was received on 1-Feb-2018 and is being processed. Please allow four to six weeks for processing, if you filed your return electronically. If you mailed your return please allow eight to ten weeks for processing.” I also checked my account and the amount is there in green…hopefully they move it along quick
-
For anyone who needs it, the phone numbers to the automated system are (617) 887-6367 or (800) 392-6089.
-
What’s the number?
-
WMR says return was accepted jan 18th. When I call it says same thing only to please allow 60 days to receive refund.
-
It’s still saying no info for me as well, think it just hasn’t updated..and idk if the account page has any more info really…I heard if you call the number it updates before the website..I’ll have to look for the number
-
I filed on 1/29.It wasn’t accepted until 2/2.TT emailed me when it was accepted but Mass connect is saying there’s no info for me. Do they update their site on the weekend and do I need to register on ma connect to get more info than just checking on my refund status?I haven’t filed MA taxes in years,been out of state,I’m lost.
-
Last year I filed and got accepted 1/27 and my refund wasn’t deposited until 2/23, hopefully this year is faster and smoother seeing how I waited until 2/1 to file and hopefully they have fixed issues from last year…last year I got my federal before state on 2/20
-
Checked Mass Tax connect and it can’t find my refund yet, also on my account the balance is still 0
-
I filed on 2/1 and just got accepted like an hour ago (2/2) at 11:00 PM…here’s to hoping it comes soon 🤞
-
My MA state taxes were accepted on 1/30/2018, and I could see it on Mass Tax Connect as of 2/1/2018. It shows as a credit, just waiting on an approval now. Hopefully it’s sooner than later.
-
My MA state income refund was approved today (2/2/2018) notified via TaxAct. Not able to check the status of my refund on the state refund page..
-
I filed on the 27th and no update. Balance is 0.00.
-
I filed on the 27th. It was accepted and my mass tax connect shows my refund amount as a credit on my account. Just waiting for when they will send it to my bank
-
Still not accpeted
-
Filed my return Jan 27th it was accepted on Jan 29 its now May 16th and it says still being processed My husband and I had an outstanding balance of 79$ which has happened before (masshealth fee’s) and they have deducted the money out of our taxes however my MassTaxConnect account shows a green balance(with the 79$ deducted). Last year it took a few extra weeks(3 weeks) however at this point it has been 15 weeks anyone else had an issue like this?
-
-
I filed on the 28th Via TurboTax and it was accepted today Feb 1, 2018.
-
Filed on the 23rd still hasn’t been accepted
-
Filed mine on the 25th and still not accepted.
-
Just called the Mass DOR automated telephone system. Entered all my info and found out they haven’t received my return yet. They said if I e-filed, then check back in 4-6 weeks. And if I filed via paper return, to wait 8-10 weeks before checking back. Smh seems like MA takes their sweet @$$ time giving out refunds. Best of luck to everyone👍
-
Filed on the 26th. Still not accepted.
-
@nassassan and @jbrodeur76 were your returns accepted by MA or just sent over? I used TaxSlayer this year. They said they sent my state return but it hasn’t been accepted yet (not showing any records on MassTaxConnect)
-
You were able to file on the 28th? I went to my accountant the 25th and filed. Thought he said MA couldn’t be submitted until later this week. Fed return was nice this year, can’t wait until next year!
-
Able to submit this morning.
-
Does anyone know when Massachusetts will start accepting returns this year? (2017 tax year)
-
I filed my tax return in the middle of March. Return status check still says it is being processed. I called today DOR of MA and received an answer that there was a software problem that is causing the delays. I asked when should I expect my return now. “We do not know” was the response. I said that I understand the agent situation and do not blame her and asked for the manager. In response, I received the manager’s voice mail with recommendation to leave a message.
It is a mess in our DOD. If they have such a huge delay, it is not for us to call and wait 15 mins before an agent comes on and says that she does not know when I can expect my return. It should be in newspapers, on TV, on internet.
It is a mess in MA DOD. -
Still here waiting on DOR to update or do something. I submitted 1/28..received a letter 10.Apr..responded back 13 April via e message..no one reviewed until I called on 4 May…now they say could take a couple more months..not couple of weeks but couple of moths…in this day and age nothing takes 2 months..
-
was received feb 20th, got a letter march 29 asking for me and my sons social cards. mailed next day, still haven’t heard anything. website still shows processing, and anyone i talk to on the phone says they can’t give me info.
what the hell is going on.
-
April 26, 2017
I filed my return with Turbo Tax 2/18. Both were accepted 2/19, but my state refund has not appeared. “Where’s My Refund” tool says if I filed electronically and chose Direct Deposit, (I did both.), I should receive my refund in 4-6 weeks. At 9 1/2 weeks, it is still saying the same thing! I haven’t received a notice of any problems, and I expect there aren’t any since Turbo Tax is great. I feel so helpless. -
I’m still waiting for my MA State Refund, logged into MassTaxConnect and it has the amount in green with negative sign, am i supposed to do anything more.. I’ve already put my back account info there. But i did put my bank information in a couple weeks ago. So not sure if there is an additional steps.
And does anyone know which number to dial so i can speak to a live person? -
Hey dcobb yes I’m still waiting for my state as well it still says it is being processed. Hopefully soon we should recurve something.
-
Still waiting after six weeks..everyone I helped using turbo tax have received theirs. Spoke to DOR and response was..it is still in processing..anyone else out there still waiting on MA DOR..?
-
@JaneR
I was tracking my state refund thru taxconnect and had no update. Then on Thursday i saw an offset taken from my initial amt. I called the IRS and found out what it was for. The status online never changed to show a pending deposot but it went into my account friday/saturday night at 2 a.m. so its pretty quick. I only ended up with 300 out of 800.
-
From the MA website:
Your refund was issued by direct deposit on 28-Feb-2017. Please allow 3-5 business days for the refund to be deposited, and check with your bank to confirm.Any idea of when to expect the deposit to clear? Haha 3-5 days I guess? I was kinda hoping it would be there on the 28th.
-
Mine was DDD for Feb 28th. It is Feb 28th but no DD…
-
So I filled my taxes on the 26th of Jan . I just checked my state refund status today and said that it was direct deposted on feb28th considering that it’s still feb 27th so I logged onto my bank account to see if it was in or not and bam ! Finally got my state taxes . I got my federal feb 21st after them saying I would get it between the 23rd-28th . There’s hope ! I hope y’all get yours soon!
-
DDD date of FEb 28 after filing Jan 25th. Longest wait ever also but finally almost over…
-
I just checked my mass status and have a dd for 2/28 longest wait time for mass, but finally over
-
I filed 1/27 got my federal and Rhode Island refund, still no ddd for Ma but I woke up to a 300 more balance in green than 1/23 which is better than nothing so hopefully that means that I will get a ddd soon fingera crossed
-
Woke up this morning to see my state taxes in my account, it never updated online because I checked yesterday. I hope everyone else is as lucky!
-
Filed on 1/27, accepted on 1/27, DDD of 2/24. They finally have updated the “where’s my MA refund” page, and I was told to expect a minimum of 4 weeks processing, so it looks like we are right on schedule.
-
So I filed my state on 1/31 and I got an update on 2/14 saying I was being sent a verification letter. I still haven’t received the letter btw. But I called and they gave me a pretty lengthy list of verifications that I needed to send in. Does anyone know how long it takes to get your refund after you get everything in? The representative couldn’t give me any helpful information.
Thanks! -
HI EVERYONE!
SO HERE’S MY TAX TIMELINE:
FILED AND ACCEPTED WITH TT 2/3
PATH MESSAGE UNTIL 2/15 AND THEN THE GENERIC “RECEIVED BEING PROCESSED” MESSAGE UNTIL I CALLED TODAY TO SPEAK WITH A REP.MY STATE REFUND IS BEING OFFSET TO PAY FEDERAL FROM 2012. IVE LOGGED ON TO TAXCONNECT AND IT SAYS I HAVE A REMAINING BALANCE AFTER WHAT I OWE.
WHAT DO I NEED TO DO NOW? DOES MY REMAINING REFUND GET DD AS USUAL?
I STILL HAVE NO DDD FOR FEDERAL WHICH THE REP TOLD ME WOULD TAKE A COUPLE OF WEEKS ONCE THE OFFSET CYCLES.
IM SO WORRIED AND WANT TO BE PROACTIVE! ANY ADVICE?
AHHHH!
-
I filed jan 25th and have been waiting with it having processed wtih green negative for weeks. I guess I should call again although I don’t think it will do anything. At least other people are having to wait too.
-
Filed mind and state accepted it Jan 26th .. still showing negative amount in green. I know people while filed wayyy after me and they got theirs before I did . I received my federal before the actual date it said i was gonna get it but why is state taking so long ?!? I swear I hate mass
-
I just wanted to chime in with my experience this year. Filed via TT on 1/31. Fed-wise, I’m among the 2/22 pathers. My state finally updated today. It must’ve been before noon but not before 6am because I’ve been checking both the WMR site and mass tax connect religiously. I finally received a DD for Friday, the 24th. This is the longest I’ve ever had to wait but at least we all know how it’s going down next year :/
-
Still impatiently waiting.. filed and accepted on 1/29. When I log into tax connect still shows refund amount with green negative.
The only time I called and spoke with someone the got the usual 4-6 weeks.
I’ve had plenty of friends receive their refund weeks ago. Before or after their federal returns.
-
So, i am getting both of my refunds sent by check and my federal is set to be sent out on Friday. When i log onto mass.gov to check my account for my mass refund, it says its been processed, my refund amount is shown in green with a green minus sign in front of it, does this mean i owe ( it’s the exact amount I’m supposed to get back)? Also when i check the where’s my refund on mass connect it says its still processing but on the other it says its been processed. Any help or insight would be appreciated ?
-
Does anyone have emerald card and if so my dad is 23 will I have cash in hand tomorrow or what ?
-
I filed 2/03 – last Friday it updated to a DD of 2/21 – actually didn’t get it until today. As far as my federal, still nothing. I went from 1 bar to no bars and a message that it’s being processed. I did order my transcripts today, so maybe that will be a push or even give me a code that I may be under review. Also, couldn’t do the on-line transcripts – has to be by mail – because when I filled out the questions, they claim the cell # isn’t associated with my name, although I’ve had the same cell # and account in my name for close to 20 years!
-
State finally updated for a ddd of 2/24
🙌🏻 -
Finally got an update on MassTaxConnect, I filed 1/20 got accepted 1/23 now got a date of 02/24 and my federal refund a ddd for tomorrow 🙋🏻
-
Filed and accepted on 1/27. Finally, the mass refund website updated my status today and I am scheduled to receive DD on 2/24. THANK GOD!!! I have never, ever waited this long for my state return!
-
Got federal today. And an update for state says it was sent 2/24 (not that it will send. doh!.) So both in the same week. Strange happenings.
-
Federal came this morning. Still no state.
-
Everyone I know who has gotten their state got it a week after their federal. My federal hit this morning so I assume those who got their federal back today will see some movement by the end of the week.
-
Filed and excepted on 1/25. Nothing doing yet. =(
Federal due to show up tomorrow. Never seen this before, federal before state. -
Filed and accepted 1/30, still no update here. Its taking even longer than last year, boooo
-
Hoping for the best tomorrow. Says it’ll be released to my bank tomorrow. But then my bank has til the 27th. Was talking to a coworker who filed on Jan 16. Was accepted on the 27th and got her state 2 weeks ago. Which makes no sense to me because her state is much larger than mine, and I was under the impression the larger ones would take longer. Ugh. It’s like every single case is different no matter how similar they look on paper.
-
Great question to answer for me and who ever stumbles upon it h and r block emerald card how long does it take for money to be cleared so u can use it say direct deposited 23 would I get it the 24th ? Any answers help
-
Like I said when I called Friday they told me the smaller returns were getting pushed out fast and the larger returns they were looking over them closer…my state was over $2 grand.. I dunno if the people that already received their refunds are a lot lower than that…I dunno what they classify is smaller or larger return
-
So I called on Friday afternoon and found out some interesting tidbits.
I filed and was accepted on 1/27.
The guy I spoke with was trying to rush me off the phone at first but I was firm with him and made him look into the issue
I have student loan interest and apparently their system had a glitch in it that tagged my return with a red flag saying I was missing a schedule Z but that I had a Y or something like that.
I told him that I never got any letter with the error so he admitted that my return would have sat there unless I called them. Why am I not surprised.
He went into my return and went through it page by page and determined that I had all of the right documents and my forms were filled out correctly (I used Turbo Tax).
He moved my account along and said I should have an update this week.
He also said that if you have a Tax Connect account that once the green number disappears, that’s when you’ll know that your deposit or check is on its way.
I strongly recommend that when you call you are firm with the representative and ask that they look into your return as you know there were glitches in their system.
I hope this helps some of you :)
-
I honestly cannot believe this. This is the worst tax season I have ever encountered. I was literally Liberty Tax first customer this year. I filed with Liberty Tax January 19. I understand that the IRS didn’t open until January 23rd but why can’t they atleast let you know what’s going on? And what’s worse is the Liberty Tax people allegedly have no idea what’s going on either, like what am I paying you for again? I hate to be like that but how do you not know anything that’s going on with the IRS? I finally got the “refund approved” bar on the federal IRS website but says “refund direct deposit date February 22” so that’s in 2 days…I know it takes an extra day or 2 for the refund to physically be in your account so why doesn’t it say “refund sent” yet? Ugh, so annoying. Hopefully other people have had better experiences this year than I. I also have the EITC which for some reason is causing enormously long waits this year.
Hurry up & wait I guess :) -
Fed updated but mass same bull fed says 23rd state doesn’t even have an update for letters or nothing going on 1 month one week and still absolutely no update I am getting my federal return first which is the first time is 6 years
-
Federal went through today. Says its being sent to bank by feb 23. However state is being a pain asking for verifications- photocopies of all 3 social security cards, 2016 tax form, and EIC sched. I don’t have all ss cards so this will suck because they gave a deadline to send it by march 10 or they will disallow pretty much 80% of my state. I claim my 2 daughters. Doesn’t make sense that they accept ss for fed but need proof for state. Ugh
-
After checking my account and nothing new I log out and do the basic where’s my refund link. That tells me the sent out a letter on the 16th of February and to call them when I receive it. It’s complete bull after almost 4 weeks and agents telling me everything is fine now I have to wait even longer.
-
I got the ddd 2/23 for my federal and Rhode Island is in my account but Ma this year is really getting on my nerves no update still green and i was accepted 1/27 ugh I can’t believe this year with Ma is taking so long last year I got it within a week
-
Updated overnight – changed my DD from 2/22 to 2/21. Also, my daughter’s updated from processing to DD of 2/21
-
I called today after no update I filed 1/25…they told what they’re is pushing the smaller returns out quick and holding the bigger ones I guess to take a closer look at them…which is weak cuz I made the same $ as last year same dependents for last 6 years…they just trying to hold are money probably too make a couple bucks off the interest…but anyway she said it could be up 2 weeks before I get my money…smdh
-
Hi,
I was panicking reading all the messages of people that have been waiting since January… I e-filed mine on February 3rd and it was accepted the same day. I kept checking and it kept saying still processing… I called yesterday and asked what the delay was. I also asked if anything was wrong with my return. I was told they have a new system and it now takes 4 to 6 weeks for the return to get processed. I said I had never waited this long and I usually get my check within days or on the same week I e-filed. I was told there is nothing wrong with my refund, no red flags and I should get it within 4 to 6 weeks… Then this morning I checked and it said it was still processing…. I might have a little ocd lol but I checked again this afternoon and voila! Big surprise! It says the direct deposit is set for the 21st, which is next Tuesday… thank God! This year is not much… way less than prior years because I made too much but it is always nice to get a check on the mail! lol And now I can relax and don’t have to worry about something going wrong with my return or wonder when the check would come :) Good luck to everyone. Hope you get yours soon!
-
I finally updated to DD of 2/22! My daughter, on the other hand, who filed same day (2/03) still says processing. Another daughter filed same day got hers last Friday.
-
Well the IRS always have big updates on sat morning so my guess is The state will too
-
@waitingmass dude I filed 19th accepted 23rd and same thing still processing the person on phone said no red flags and it’s being finalized yesterday so my guess is they will send it my way Wednesday Thursday anyone know if they update on weekends for mass state
-
I am so over MA…I was accepted the 24th and all I keep getting is it is processing.
-
Still no update for me..I called and of course he just said it can take 4 to 6 weeks and told me it’s been 3 weeks. He said I don’t see any letters so it’ll be coming..I just want an update!
-
I finally got a DD for 2/21!!
-
Just checked my status and I now have a DDD for 2/21 for my mass state taxes!
-
I filed with Free tax usa on 2/2 and was accepted the same day. I Hoh and Eic, and dor finally updated this morning. Stating my DD is scheduled for the 2/21. Nice to finally see progress.
-
I filed and was accepted on 1/27/17. I received my federal return about a wk after I filed but I have yet to receive my state refund. I have friends who filed after me and they have received their state return. When I went on the website this morning, it states that it is still processing and I must allow 4-6 weeks to receive my return. When I logged into my account, all I see is the amount in green with a negative sign. This is the first time I have ever waited so long for a state return. I have always typically received it within days of when it was filed. This waiting game is soooo annoying especially since my financial situation and dependent status is the still same as last year!
-
@Dewy..I have an account, when I checked this morning it still had the amount in green with the negative. I don’t know what is going on
-
With MA you can also set up an account and check your progress that way. It provides much more information than just the WMR app.
-
@Samantha… how frustrating. It’s just all over the place this year. Hopefully something happens soon. Crazy how they make you wait for your own money like this.
-
@Kionna..I just called the hotline and still saying processing..I don’t have the app..I did go on the mass connect to “where’s my refund” at like 6:00AM but that still said processing too
-
Samantha, are you checking the refund hotline or irs2go app for your updates? The hotline hasn’t changed for me, still just saying they received it and allow 4 to 6 weeks, but the app updated a few hours ago and had a DDD.
-
I’m so mad! Still nothing! Was accepted 1/27 and no update or refund and of course nothing for federal either! Both my sister’s got there state refund and filed after me
-
Finally, got a DDD of Feb 22. Filed with taxact and accepted 1/28.
-
filed 1/23 and nothing yet. spoke with one person kept saying its entered into the computer here is nothing more i can tell you and transferred me back to the main number. i finally spoke with a nice lady who said i had no red flags & it should be coming soon, but MA is being effected by the IRS path act & since I’m going on 4 weeks I should get it soon.
-
Still processing
-
Does anyone know how long until they finalize my return they lady said it was processed and is being finalized anyone get the same and if so how long
-
I filed 2 returns because taxact was having problems at first with my federal. I filed federal on jan 20 but it wasnt accepted for 5 days so i refiled both state and federal with freetaxusa. The result was that one of federal returns was rejected but the state took both returns. So as of Monday my status with MA was when i pulled up my account it showed one return processed and the other processing. Now after calling them Monday it shows 1 return and processed. However no movement since with a ddd. I just have a green negative number and I am waiting for something to happen.
-
Hopefully we see some movement this friday. Meanwhile Im getting all my paperwork ready just in case I get a letter in the mail.
-
I called today also and the nice lady said that everything was fine no red flags should be issued soon she said I don’t know when but since I filed the 23 rd and got no letter it should be soon by the way everyone just in case I had my girlfriend sign the form where she is in agreement letting me claim my son it makes it so there are no red flags when claiming your kids h and r block gave me the idea to do it that’s why I like dealing with humans so just so everyone knows I filed 23rd and accepted I have the green negative amount and I’m still getting the run around
-
Filed Jan 30th and accepted same day still nothing ma called and was told 4 to six weeks and to call back after march and the IRS won’t even display the status still getting the same message about path act
-
When I checked my refund status on the DOR site it told me I had a letter coming. I had everything together beforehand just Incase something like this happened. I wasn’t expecting it from state though.
-
@Czarface that is crazy..how did you find out you had to verify?
-
I finally got my deposit date today. Supposed to get it tomorrow
-
@samantha
I think ours are waiting to get looked at by a human being, so hopefully by next week we’ll have some movement -
Thoroughly frustrated. Filed with taxact. Paid fees up front. Accepted 1/28. EIC. HOH. Still getting message that says they can not send anything out before today, Feb 15 due to PATH act. Never had a DDD. Hoping at some point today I’ll get a deposit. (Fingers crossed)
-
I ended up getting updated with a message saying a letter has been sent for verification. I have to send in a copy of my federal tax return, w2, last pay stub of 2016, and all the social security cards of every one on my return including myself. I haven’t received the letter yet. Once I send it to them they said 4-6 weeks to see my return.
-
I just called the automated line and mine is still processing! I was accepted 1/27! I’m getting sooo aggravated!
-
Omg I can’t believe this! I seriously thought I would have my state refund by now, I haven’t even got a DDD
-
Last year i put the wrong routing # for dd and 1 of the reps (cuz I called a few times) told me their big days for pushing out dd are Wednesday and Friday so hopefully we c sum movement then…I’ll keep y’all posted
Also I know in prior years the automated Line would update b4 online and usually it would be in evening
-
@gaingreen, nope everything is the same except an extra 10k in income, other than that its all the same
-
I filed on jan 23 and then again on jan 25 cause first one was wrong. After seeing one processed and the other still processing for 2 weeks i called yesterday. It took a while to get through but the woman was nice and said that they would cancel my first e-file and i would have it in like 2 weeks. Sure enough today I have only one return showing but still green negative number. I am heartened by the movement however and hopefully a ddd tomorrow or the next day for me I entered all the control codes from w2s so hopefully no identity problems. the lady didnt mention anything about identity fraud or anything either.
-
@jess did anything for you change this year (dependent address) man wtf
-
They are holding me to that four to six weeks filed the 23 still nothing
-
I called today and it was a waste of time, she basically told me the same thing I know, its still processing, no letter and to wait 4 to 6 weeks. I asked her if it was because it needed extra verification and she said yes we’re trying to prevent id fraud
-
Ya I filed 1/27 and still no update! Im starting to get pist off..was thinking about calling but there just gonna say it’s processing
-
I was accepted 1/27 still no change on my status balance in green , I filed on the 2/3 for Rhode Island and was approved and refund is being sent out already idk why mass is taking forever to update i have eic with 3 kids as well
-
@george I filed 1/25 and still same green negative amount… I filed w/ Jackson Hewitt in office which makes it a lot harder to file fraudulently so I don’t know why they haven’t released my funds….
-
Soo I don’t Know what to think anymore filed the 23Rd January still same stuff highlighted in green with neg amount still says 4 to six weeks I call they say 60 days LMAO this is the craziest tax season everrrrrr
-
Finally today I see some movement – it’s been weeks. It now says Your refund was issued for direct depot on 2/16.
-
Becky I actually got it today so I guess that date meant the next day!
-
Still nothing for me 2weeks and a day have minus plus amount in green called and they told me 60 days gf filed same day and they sent a I’d verication anyone know how long till they issue refund after receiving additional info???
Or does it mean they start processing it again from start thanks -
No method to their madness….I’m thinking they must be pulling random returns to make sure everything looks good if something looks off to them they’ll send you a letter if not they’ll finish and send did…
-
Did the following via Tax Act:
2/01 – daughter, HOH, 1 child, EIC, CTC – received DD 2/10
2/03 – daughter, married, 1 child – only extra was student loan interest – still showing as processing.
2/03 – myself, married – itemized on federal, still showing as processing.
2/06 – daughter, married, 2 kids, itemized – today had message of DD for 2/14. -
Im also still waiting, filed and accepted 1/31. Still getting generic message.
-
Damn autocorrect that was supposed to say DD
-
@linda P did your refund get DAD today ? I have DDD of today also and nothing
-
Ya I filed and was accepted 1/27 and no change for me either :/ hopefully soon!! Thought I’d have it by now at least!
-
I filed on the 30th and claimed both credits and still no change on mass.gov, verification letter, or update 😕 Kinda sucks
-
Hey everyone :) so I have DDD of today 2/13 but nothing in my bank. Anyone with Boa know if it will deposit after 5pm? Thank you
-
Something tells me we will all see some movement after the 15th…I know some people said they received there refund and they have eic but I think the state is following the IRS.. MA used to have the quickest turn around and for them the blame it on a new system just doesn’t seem right.
-
I had my account go from the negative green to 0 on February 8th and when I log on it
still is showing as processed and no DD as of yet. I was hoping that there would be some
update today. Mine was accepted on the 27th. :( -
Just checked my netspend card and my refund is now available with a ddd of tomorrow good luck everyone see you next year
-
George I filed 1/27 although people say they update overnight but when I checked at 8 am it wasn’t changed checked back at 10 ish and it changed so I think they update all the time
-
Once u have negative green amnt how long tell it hits zero?
-
Joslyn when did u file I have same stuff as you I filed the 23rd
-
My amount just changed from the negative green number to a 0 and I got a ddd date of tomorrow I have both child credits and eic so there is hope. Good luck everyone
-
Hello I see you guys mention a – green amount where does it shoes I got accepted on 1/30 but still shows processing doesn’t show a amount or anything. Can someone please tell me if I’m going to the right page mass.gov to check. Thank you
-
@justin you want there to be 0.00 where your -green amount is…that’s when they have released your funds for dd…the -green amount means that they still owe you that amount
-
Mine is negative green what does that mean mine says it was processed but still date for DD ?
-
I filed the 19th of January accepted 23rd still haven’t got my state no change in anything I got an account and saw the amount in green negative no messages no mail no letters last name starts with J any ideas when I all get return
-
Not to get religous but man I’m praying!!! Ill send good vibes for you all and check in in the am!! Thank you all
-
@jessica I’m hoping it does I was accepted 1/25…still says being processed on the wmr and processed on the acct page with the green minus amount… I have eic…everything is the same as last 3yrs…let me know if you get update tomorrow and I’ll do the same
-
Filed state return on 1/27. Refund scheduled for dd tomorrow (2/13).
-
@Jessica…I would say you might get one in the morning when you check but now with the snowstorm I don’t know..like what Mizz Chipmunk said, we’ll prolly get our federal before our state at this point
-
My mom claims one of my kids has a DDD of tomorrow filed after me. I claimed another one of my kids filed 1/27 approved that night. Website (not account) says processing. Anyone think I’ll get a DD tonight?
-
@Samantha thanks for replying! I am hoping I get an update Monday Tuesday. At this rate we might get our federal return before the State. 😕
-
@Mizz Chipmunk..I filed and was accepted 1/27 and my account hasn’t changed yet either. I’m thinking tomorrow might have an update/deposit. Last year I got it on a Monday at 4:30PM. I have netspend so usually get it before the DDD.
-
@Talsr..sometimes the tracking is a couple days behind, so even though it’s been issued it’ll say processing still for a couple days. When I got accepted it didn’t update until like 3 days later saying it was accepted..and it says 0.00 because they did issue it, your bank probably just didn’t release it yet. You can probably call your bank and they’ll be able to tell you if you have anything pending
-
I filed and was accepted on 1/30 and still no change on MassTax Connect. The refund amount is still in the negative and says Processed. What is the date everyone filed?
-
Green negative changed to 0.00. Where’s my refund still says processing. No deposit date or other info in tax connect. Called when this happened Friday, was told that refund was issued but I wouldn’t see it for a few days. Quite confused. Why would it say still processing if it was issued? Why would it change to 0.00 if it wasn’t issued? NOT liking this new system.
-
@Gsar20
I got that message to it’s for the new law the path act for people who have EIC and/or ACTC they are holding the refunds until the 15th to try to prevent fraud -
@samantha I really hope so to buddy of mine claims 2 kids got state at 4am this morning and does anyone know why the status bar on IRS disappeared and got message saying check back after Feb 15 I filed Jan 26th
-
They update it overnight..I’m not sure if they do on the weekends, I really hope so cause I want my money! Lol
-
Anyone know how often dor updates where’s my refund 12 days and still no change says receive and being processed
-
I got hit with the verification as well even though I have zero changes in anything. I got a letter stating I have to send them all of my w2, tax papers, social security cards, everything. So looks like I’ll see my refund right around Christmas time! There are at least 5 other people I saw this morning also hit with the letter so looks like a huge percentage of returns were pulled for verification. I’m really hoping it doesn’t affect my federal timing cause I was hoping for some money anyday. I had just talked to them on wednesday by the way and they told me nothing was wrong with my return and I was waiting for a refund so i wouldn’t count on that for those who were told that.
-
@Czarface…I don’t think it’ll be effected, there two separate things…I had to ID verify for my state last year and federal was fine
-
Does anyone know if my federal return will be affected by my state wanting verifications?
-
Nothing new huh?..no change in mine, I called and all they said was it’s still processing, I said there’s nothing wrong and she said no you’re just waiting for your refund, it’s like no shi* can ya give it to me lol
-
Well this now sucks. What happened to the 3-4 day turnaround on Mass State Income Taxes they had previously? Now 4-6 weeks. Nice.
-
So yesterday I logged on to see my status and of course nothing changed but as I logged off a verification notice popped up with no name or anything so of course I couldn’t call yesterday they were close I call today and the lady tells me everything is fine and I should get my return no later than next week. This year Tax Season is crazy
-
My last name starts with B in I am I. Western MA. I have no clue what is going this year.
-
@czarface
A few years ago we had gotten a letter but it was to verify that my son was actually my son I had to send in birth certificate, social security card, and marriage certificate. -
My husband is military so we haven’t lived in MA for almost 2 years. But since that’s his home of record (we’re from western MA) he continues to pay MA state taxes our last name starts with an R so hoping they don’t do it like that lol
-
I just got notice that I’m receiving a letter. My return is being reviewed for whatever reason. Unbelievable.
-
I’m in south/e mass….. right before the cape and my last name starts with a B.
My deposit date was today but still have no money.
-
I was thinking the same thing that maybe their going by last name or county because I seen people who were accepted 1/24, 1/27, and 1/30 get their refunds. I haven’t got mine, my last name starts with L and live in central ma
-
I do have EIC and I don’t know in what order they are releasing them. I did however call yesterday and reiterate to the agent I’ve had the same address, same dependents, same job and same checking account information every year. Then this morning wah lah.
-
I hope I get an update tomorrow! I filed 1/24 plus I moved out of state. Ugh. :( Congrats to everyone at least there is progress for some.
-
Did you have EIC? And do you know if they go by first come first served basis or maybe last name?
-
I still had a negative sign with the refund amount yesterday. This morning it said 0.00 refund issues 1/10/17 and this afternoon around 4 I noticed in my account a pending deposit scheduled to clear Monday.
-
@WaitinginMA…mine still says processed :/ and I was accepted 1/27…I’ll see if anything changes tomorrow, if not I might call..if anything changes for you let me know…mine still has the amount in green
-
Mass Tax Connect updated to $0.00 balance instead of green amount in the negative. Filed and accepted 1/30
-
@Samantha…mine is the same still to. Did your acct update to processed to In process?
-
@SingleMomInMA..did your status change on your account or when you tracked it? I have netspend but haven’t got mine yet and my status hasn’t changed
-
I filed and was accepted the 27th. EIC and ACTC and my credit union shows deposit for Monday 2/13
-
@CynthlaLee…I filed and got accepted 1/27 through TT and I’m still waiting too…but they started refunds so maybe we’ll update tomorrow! If not by Mon the latest I think
-
@MANetspender
When did you file and get accepted
I filed 1/20 got accepted 1/23 and still nothing -
Just checked netspend acct recieved refund today a 1:48 p.m
-
@WaitinginMA…I’m still waiting too, and of course their closed today! I’m glad their starting to release funds, just wish I was one of them lol..but should be any day now
-
Great…and they are closed today due to the storm.
-
Your refund was issued by direct deposit on 10-Feb-2017. Please allow 3-5 business days for the refund to be deposited, and check with your bank to confirm.
-
@Katie…I filed on the 27th with TT too but I still got nothing
-
i filed with turbo tax. on the 27th. first i logged into my account and the green amount said zero. so i looked on my refund status page and it said it was processed and refunded.
-
@Katie..also who did you file with
-
@Katie..right where did you get the message? I seen someone else say they got approved too..mine still says processing! I’m getting so sad lol
-
@katie where did you get the message at.
-
got a message mine has been deposited… dont have it in my bank yet though. claim eic and the other one.
-
Could this be political backlash for not voting for Clinton? My return was accepted 1/24 and says processed but, i keep getting the run around with how long this will take.
-
I didnt want to get political. Especially in liberal Massachusetts but…..I feel like maybe they are scolding people? I did not vote for Clinton. Could that be why? I know it sounds crazy…but… just curious if this is the case for anyone else.
-
@WaitinginMa…I just checked mine and still says processed :/ Think it’s a better sign if it changed to in process…let us know if you get an update tomorrow! You did get accepted before me, I didn’t get accepted until the 27th
-
@Samantha it is under return status.
-
How do you check it
-
@WaitinginMa…where does it say in process?
-
I just checked mine too and it says processed under return status
-
I just checked and it now went from processed to in process
-
My son was accepted the 27th. No credits at all, still processing.
-
@Samantha I was accepted on the 27
-
Hello everyone. What -green sign are you guys talking about? And is it for MA state or federal? I filed the 14/Jan got accepted the 30, but nothing yet.
-
I filed with HR Block
-
@waitinginma…who did you file with? I never got a expected refund date..I filed with TT
-
@China913..When did your return get accepted?
-
I agree it has something to do with path, when I was accepted on the 24th it said expected refund date 2/15. I think it’s kind off odd that it came out the same date as the IRS release date for path.
-
There are actually people who have received their returns already with the EIC and ACTC in mass anywho I called back and was told they update nightly and the website is currently up to date.
-
Like I posted last week, this is because of the federal government holding all tax returns containing EIC and ACTC. Some states are on board with that and IF your state return is partially EIC which is based off of your EIC amount from your federal return, they will not release any refunds until the federal returns are cleared and sent. I’ve let this go a week ago and accepted it. It’s easier that way.
-
So I just spoke to someone at the irs and was told the word process means nothing and they will be changing the wording and if you have your amount with a green minus that does not mean anything special that’s just the amount your suppose to be getting back. I was also told they still working on my refund then it will be passed on to someone else to send out my refund I also asked when do they update he never answered that question and I forgot to ask again but I think I’m going to call an as that question again cause that’s what I want to know more than anything he also said it will actually take 4 to 6 weeks
-
I remember last year my money got deposited at 4:30PM but don’t remember about updates or anything lol so hopefully they issue/update throughout the day…I’ll be happy if I see anyone update, that way I know something’s going on
-
Do you know if they update all throughout the day?
-
Let’s hope we get DDD today because I don’t expect much work being done today or Friday with a foot of snow cooking.
-
I know a lot of ours are in green with a negative sign in front of it..if it’s processed I don’t know why they aren’t issuing it..hopefully will see some movement/change
-
I ended up calling and the lady I spoke with said that if the amount is green with a negative sign in front that it’s good and means it’s been processed but that’s all she said 😑
-
I was accepted on 23rd and I can see by looking at my account that mine has been processed. I can’t seem to get any more info that that from the thing. I f you go into your account from the non refund section there is more info there. That refund app is useless it seems.
-
This Friday will be 3 weeks for me ! Ugh
-
I hope it works for everyone soon. I give up it’s been exactly 2 weeks no change in status. I will just wait for a text from the bank about a deposit. DOR is absolutely no help this year.
-
Samantha, friday is two weeks for me also. fingers crossed!
-
The MA website says, “DOR estimates that 75% of online returns will continue to be processed in two to three days, and anticipates issuing most refunds in less than two weeks from the time returns are received.
Refund turnaround times for e-filed returns could take up to four to six weeks if additional information is needed to verify a filer’s identity to protect against refund fraud.”
So Friday will be 2 weeks for me, so hopefully we see some movement.
-
@waitinginma: I feel you completely. I hate getting ten different answers from people that all work in the same place.
-
I really think they are following the IRS with the path. I was accepted the 24th and nothing. No one gives me a reason just says 2-6 weeks, 60 days or 4 -6 weeks. I think they outsourced the call center and no one know what they are talking about. It’s really not fair if they were just on point and honest with us then maybe we wouldn’t be so mad and stop calling..lol sorry end of my rant I just had to get it off my chest.
-
@radshackgirl77 Thank You
-
@china93: apparently no, processed does not mean processed. Only when you click on accounts, then click your account number then click activities you will see an option for refund. That is where it will show you whether the refund was issued. That’s why I prefer using the automated system
-
This is so painfully agonizing. It’s our damn money. WTF.
-
I have a couple of questions
1 If the refund page says processed dose it mean their finish.
2 If so does anyone know how long before they ddd
any answers would be appreciated
Thank You -
My checking account info is really the only thing that changed. And the guy I spoke to told me that kind of letter wouldn’t be available to view on my account page so I have to wait for it. I checked and letter isn’t on my account page
-
I had to ID verify the last 2 years. If you move, change your checking account info, new dependent, anything different, they usually have you ID verify. You might be able to see the letter if you log into the website. It’s a link and a personalized password and then 3 questions only you would know the answers to.
-
I was checking the automated system and it stated I was receiving a letter. So I got on the phone with a rep and they said it was to verify my identity
-
last year I got a letter to if verify and I still got my refund within 10 days of filing so you should get your refund asap..it looks like a good sign..how you know your getting a letter?
-
And yes I did put in my mass. I.d. Number.
-
Yes I did have eic. I’ve never had to do this before. So, it’s a good thing?
-
That’s actually a good sign. As soon as your answer the questions online they will process probably over night. Do you have EIC??
-
This is insane. Did you use your I’d when you filed? I did mine on turbo tax and put my licence number in with the hopes that I could avoid any hold ups.
-
So now a letter was mailed to me and I have to do an I.d. Verify. They won’t allow me to answer the questions until I get the letter ugh
-
@Samantha(MA): that was the case but I called today and I was told 4-6 weeks due to the crack down on fraud. So who knows now. I’m so discouraged and disgusted with the system this year. We all work hard for this money and look forward to these checks every years to give us a little boost financialy and a piece of mind. All we can do is wait it out. I’m done calling people and checking websites.
-
@Czarface..when you called didn’t they say something about 5 days? That was 5 days ago tomorrow… I’m hoping!! But like you said I’m not trying to get my hopes up too much
-
I’m getting the same. I’m hopeful!! Don’t get too excited though. You know how taxachussettes likes to play games.
-
@Erika K..I just called the automated system too and mine is saying the same thing, hopefully it’s a good sign!
-
Mass. Dept. of revenue automated system keeps saying “technical difficulties” would be nice if that means something. With this new system I’m just lost. In previous years if I got a message like that the refunds were being issued. Don’t know about this new system though.
-
It looks like we will receive our federal before our state for the EIC people.
-
Seems to me us massholes are screwed more by the state more than the IRS.
-
Why have you called again Erikak? You really do get a different story every time depending who you talk to. I want to call but seems like it don’t make a difference
-
I need to vent. Massachusetts is really pissing me off right now. You get different stories from everyone you talk to there nobody’s on the same page in that place. I’m so frustrated and it’s not even that much but still it’s my money. If I was a loan shark how do you think that would work out 😳
-
I filled 1/24 accepted 1/26 still processing. I just got off the phone with someone from DOR and she told me to expect at least 4 weeks due to more intense fraud detection. Nothing to due with PATH act even though it seems to be that way.
-
I was accepted the 27th and still no movement. I hope they’re enjoying holding on to my whopping $288. I’ve claimed the same dependants since 2003. Obviously I’m not one of the criminals
-
I know my bf wanted me to change it and said I can’t watch this but glad I put it back on after commercial lol..I even said you never know
-
*Never lol and yesss go patssss !!
-
@Samantha(MA) omg yes that was a great game kept us on the edge of our seats lol but ever lost faith !!
-
OMG so glad I didn’t change it!!! I can’t believe it! Go Pats!!!
-
I can’t believe how the pats are playing! I can’t even watch anymore! Wish I had an update or my money to feel a little better
-
So guys.. on the Ma department of website twitter page I saw this just posted a few days ago.. I do have friends who have started receiving refunds that were accepted on 1/26 and 1/27 so I’d say that the more accurate timeline would be around 2 weeks. I was accepted 1/27 so hoping to see some movement this week nearing the two week mark.
In reply to Denise Farrell
MA Dept. of Revenue @MassRevenue Feb 2
More
@Denise9022 2-3 days references processing. Most refunds are received within 2-6 wks after processing. -
Hopefully we see some change tomorrow !!
-
I’m telling you guys, the turn around time for MA is usually 5-7 days. It’s because of the PATH law this year. Why else would it go from 5-7 days every other year to 4-6 weeks this year?? Ridiculous.
-
One guy that I talk to at the Department of revenue said that the processed word is actually not what it means. He said he’s been trying to tell them that they need to change the wording that processed does not mean processed. they’re just all screwed up this year. I was told not to expect it for 4 to 6 weeks . They really suck
-
Nothing new :( Hopefully see something tomorrow, anything!
-
Czarface I was wondering the same thing, I tryed to Google it but can’t find an answer
-
Your state was refunded this morning Heather?
-
Anyone have an idea of what time the state website updates?
-
I think the common denominator here is EITC. That’s why alot of us are waiting.
-
Filed on 1/27 and accepted on 1/28 and mine was in my bank account this morning! :) No EIC or anything like that
-
Filed and accepted 1/27 through taxact. Paid fees up front. (HH, EIC). wmr shows generic msg and nothing else. Waiting patiently….
-
ok so last year they received my refund 01/22 and it got deposited 10 days later on Mon 02/01…This year they received my refund 01/27 so 10 days later would be Mon 02/6…and when Czarface called they said within 5 days which would bring it to Tue 2/7 so hopefully we will see something between now and Tue. I have a good feeling…well for now lol if tue comes and there’s no movement it’ll be a different story lol
-
I just called and they said it’s taking extra long to process this year due to the new system… it seems like they should’ve just kept the old one because this one is taking much longer
-
I seen Czarface on the main page and he/she does have EITC..Guess we can only wait and find out…Maybe they told you they were waiting until the federal gets sent out so no one keeps calling or because that will be 4 weeks since filing anyways so
-
I just called and talked with someone and they said mine is still processing and that their NOT holding them until the 15th, that they have a new system so might be a little longer than last year but their not following the path act and/or waiting till the 15th
-
I checked last years and I got accepted on the 22nd and got it feb 1st and my federal feb 9th. I hope they don’t wait until after the federal! I’m going to call and see what they say to me lol
-
I really wish they would have told us MA would be delayed too…. i can’t find any info saying that.
-
I wonder is czarface has EIC and if so, why they told him 5 days.
-
That’s what I figured after the 15th. They should have given people a heads up. I am over here thinking something is wrong.
-
I just called and the lady I spoke with told me nothing will be released until AFTER federal releases their returns which is after 2/15 for anyone receiving EIC.
-
Omg the 24th!? I really hope they issue them soon and not towards the end of the month. Last year I think it took me a little while to get mine, but I had to ID verify…I wanna call but idk if I should lol
-
I was accepted on the 24th and it still has not been released
-
I filed through TT on the 27th and was accepted the same day..just wish they would release it!!
-
Czarface called because online it says processed and they said to give it five more days
-
I had the processed any negative green for about a week now. I called h numerous times and nobody can seem to tell me when exactly the refund will be sent. I have a funny feeling they are going to wait until around February 15, i filed with H&R Block and it says receive mass by February 15.
-
Online mines also has the amount in green with a – in front of it. And it says processed.
-
The automated phone service says received 1/27 please allow 60 days for processing
-
Yes, my amount is in green with a negative sign. Where did you get the 5 day info??
-
try and call DOR hotline see what it says on that
-
no mine just says still processing…. when did you file?
-
Katie and SinglemominMA, have you guys checked your acount on state site? Does it say it’s been processed with the amount in green with negative before it? Because there’s a couple of us who’s are like that and was told that means it’s ready to be issued and should get it within 5 days
-
I filed on the 27th as well. Still processing. Massachusetts is usually fast.
-
I filed on 27th still nothing.
-
Thanks for the update Czarface!! Hopefully that is the case..if you hear anything else or get your refund let me know pls and I’ll do the same
-
I was told to give it 5 more days to see anything.
-
Samantha i am seeing the same thing on my account. I’m trying to talk to someone now to find out what is going on
-
I filed the 27th and was accepted same day and shows processed on my account but still says it’s processing when I track it
-
I filed on Friday, 1/27. Accepted the same day. Still have generic 4-6 week message. Which is weird for MA. It’s usually 4 days.
-
Still waiting when did you file
-
anyone get their refund yet or update?
-
Alright-After filling out that verification online on Monday night my webfile for income refund status changed. It says I should see my refund within a week.
Nothing in the bank account as of this AM but I suspect it will come along tonight or tomorrow. -
Found a letter today in the mail to verify my mass refund due to changes.
Check your mail-it takes a few seconds just to go on their website and verify your return.
-
I filed my state taxes on 1/25 and still have not received mine either. My sister filed a week later and got hers last week. Come’on Mass, get your ish together!
-
Still no refund for me-It still says being processed on webfile for income. A measly $150 bucks must be really important to Charlie Baker and the goon squads!
I shot them a general email asking what’s going on-I don’t feel like calling the State of Massachusetts. I’d rather cut off a finger or a toe.
-
As promised, I am back to report that I received my MA. state return yesterday, Feb 10th.
@ Joe in Seabrook
Maybe you should give them a call and see what the hold up is. I do know that for some unknown reason, they seem to be later than in past years. Good luck to everyone.
-
Mine still says processing and it was accepted on January 25th! That’s going on 15 business days and still no MA refund.
Sheesh.
-
An update for Ma. residents. I filed my state taxes on Thursday, Jan 28th. It was received on Feb.1. I just received a notice today, Feb 6 that it has been approved and it should be deposited within 7 days. In the past several years my refund has been approved a little bit quicker, but not by much. I will update when my check has actually been deposited in my account.
-
It was exactly 7 days. Wife called last Thursday and they were processed. Yesterdy we had them in the account.
-
I filed my state refund for Ma about a week ago on the MA DOR WEB FILE. It has sat under still processing for the last three days and yesterday finally over the phone it states it was done processing and to expect my refund in seven days yet the web hasn’t yet updated to anything. How long in anyone’s experience did it take to get a refund after it stated done processing. Is it not updating to the refund sent screen on the web that it always has?
-
@scott-Not sure I think it updated overnight.
No refund yet for me as I just checked the bank account! Maybe tonight. -
Our refund showed up this morning in our account. Finally.
-
@Joe in Seabrook did it update in the middle of the day or first thing in the morning? I filed 1/27 accepted 1/28 and still don’t have any word. In years past Ive gotten a return real fast.
-
My webfile for income updated today! It’s being processed!
-
I’m still awaiting my MA refund (Filed Taxact and accepted by the state on Jan 25th).
-
Well, you guys know our greedy state… We filed 1/19, accepted 1/21. Wife called yesterday and spoke with a robot human(zero personality), he said it’s processed and will be deposited this week. he told her deposits go in Monday, Tues, Thurs, Fri. As of this morning nothing, BUT IRS put ours in as pending for 2/5.
-
Does anyone from Ma. Have an update about recieving a check ? Thank you in adavance.
-
Filed and Accepted on 1/25 through TT
Called today and was told my return isn’t in the system. I’m freaking out and need some advice
-
Nothing today for refund in my bank account, It would be great if I see it tomorrow (Friday!) seeing I was accepted by MA on Monday.
-
@joe in seabrook: no i don’t use the mass. website. but i did use it to file my sons, i did his on monday and he is already done processing. i was a little jealous, it took me a week to get moving, and he’s finished in 2 days.
-
Ok, so MA is finally issuing refunds. Mine was issued today. If website is not showing call refund hot line, it’s more accurate!
-
@radshackgirl77 Did you file on their webfile for income page or through a software site like TaxAct or Taxslayer?
I used Taxact. Just curious! -
just a little update for you guys. my state is finally “finished processing” and is “being issued.” it updated on the phone number and has not updated on the website yet. so like i’ve said use the phone number it updates quicker. i will pop in and let you know if i have a deposit tomorrow or thursday. thursday is when i’ve gotten all my state refunds in the past. good luck. here is the phone number if you don’t already have it 617-887-6367
-
Mine was filed 1/19/2015 and accepted 1/25. No info on the webfile for income account I have. I used to do it on that site but I couldn’t this year so I used Taxact since I live in NH but work in MA.
I suppose I should see it by the end of the week.
-
Has anyone received their MA state refund? The online state wheres my refund says it is still being processed but the DOR customer service line says they received it, processed it and my refund is being issued if I dont receive my refund in 7 days to call and speak to a representative. It has been 3 days and still not deposit.
-
The mass automated system said they have received my return however additional info may be needed. I filed with H&R block. What the heck does this mean?
-
Same with me I talked to a rep who told me she couldn’t see any change and I was still being reviewed
-
I filed my MA state return on 1/21/15, and am getting the same results. The online part says still being processed. DOR automated line says return processed refund being sent, call in a week if I haven’t gotten it. And still no deposit to my bank. It’s so frustrating. Normally I receive my deposit 4-5 days after I electronically file. I figured there would be a slight delay due to the Blizzard we just had, but now that things have been back to normal for a few days, I have been expecting it to be deposited.
