I am still waiting with no updates. Today I emailed the tax advocate. This is beyond ridiculous.
I file & was accepted 1/31, mn wmr updated this morning they sent me a letter March 14th, I called cause I haven’t gotten it yet,lady on the phone said she cant access the letter until 10 days after they sent it, so after researching online it could be anything from proving my identity or proving my medical insurance or income with w-2s…. so here Iam having to wait to see what else it is they need from me
I filed Jan 30 and still no state refund. Just checked this morning and says that sent me a letter because they need more info!?? It was accepted feb 1!! Not sure what the hell they need!!! #Frustrated
I filed back at the end of January. Accepted 1/28 and federal was processed and returned already mid Feb. Minnesota was accepted, but has been stuck in processing still. Wondering for those that filed at the end of January, if you have gotten your return back yet or not. Getting frustrated!
Still no update. Rrrr
Any updates ?
@Noblemama Filled and Accepted on 2/5 No EIC or ACTC also called and they said “no hold” …. Still stuck on Processing
Hakim when did you file? Did you have the EIC and ACTC?
Still no update as well. Called and said no hold and it should be proccessed soon
Still no update. 😢
Monmon,
They can take your returns for any past due amounts that are owed to certain hospitals, state ran things or child support or student loans. In my case I had no clue that there was even Bill’s out there. They are granting me my hardship so I will get my return but thankfully my insurance will take care of the outstanding bill as they never submitted it to insurance.I called a few weeks ago and was told I have no holds on my refund and nothing was wrong. Just returns are taking awhile. I hope yours goes smoothly with your hardship!
Also what is the number to the tax advocate line ?
Hi Tina, so if you have medical loans and school loans they won’t disemburse your money ? Are they going to keep it then ?
So I called a Tax advocate today, At first he went through the spiel that refunds can take up to 3 months this year due to l the fraud. I asked if I qualified for a Hardship, Being I am having a major medical crisis and need meds and dr visits and my Bill’s? I do. However when he looked into my file there was a couple ambulance Bill’s on there. One for daughter and one for me, One they didnt even run through my medical ins so it would have taken almost my entire refund. I had no clue I had either of these Bill’s my daughters should have been paid by my ex and mine should have been billed to ins and then the rest sent to me. He said a lot of refunds are sitting because of things like medical bills and student loans etc. I just wanted to let ya’all know to maybe check if that could be part of your issue. I was never notified about either of these Bill’s I have a feeling my daughters bill went to my ex but because I am the parent on her medical forms it’s me they came after when he didnt respond. My own bill was from March 2018 and I got the initial bill for 2200 and called and gave them my ins info as my ins pays out 90% so of course I would do that. I think its messed up because nobody sent me anything about these Bill’s before hand or I would have taken care of them especially the one my ins can pay most of. So that’s my update, I will get my hardship hopefully and it takes about a week or so. Hopefully the state moves on this quickly. If you need a hardship their rules are on Minnesota Revenue. And you only get one in a lifetime. Good luck everyone I hope your waiting is just due to the fraud issues. I’m glad I called or they would have taken 2700 of my refund and I would have had to go through a long process to get my money back for a ambulance ride that should have been paid for.
No update so far :(
I was so hoping for an update this morning! I guess can’t do anything but keep waiting! This is the longest wait ever!!! Holding onto hope for all of us for this week. 🤞🤞🤞
Nothing here either: ( Heres to the greener side of things…I bet we’ll get an update for sure by the end of March here!
Still no update loosing faith in this tax return
Sorry if this repeats – mine was accepted 1/29, was changed overnight last night to refund processing. Any idea how long this step takes?
Mine was accepted on Jan 29th and today it finally showed as refund processing. Any idea how long it takes to get the direct deposit?
I filed and got processed 2/4, still no update I’ve been at that process bar. This year is definitely taking longer than last year…
I filed 1/28 but got audited and put in review. Finally got approved
Still nothing processing since 2/3

Nope
Any updates for anyone ?
You’re welcome : ) Glad I could help a bit
Wow so much info I love it !!! I will have to screeen shot your suggestions ! Thank you so much for being to kind !
Ft myers is great and less expensive. Its close to lovers key beach and sanctuary which you can trolley or walk to the beach and paddle board/kayak the sanctuary part as well, sanibel island which is accessible by car and is the #1 place in the world for shelling as the island is made from shells! Ft myers beach has all the shops you can imagine, restaurants, ice cream parlors etc. Our kids looooved ft myers area. Siesta key beach is about an hour north of ft myers, best beach ever! Also in sarasota (20min north of siesta key) is the Mote Marine Aquarium. Extremely recommended for the kids! It was just amazing!
Ft Myers is a great place! Has all the fun shops, ice cream stores, restaurants, close to sanibel island (20 min) which is an entire island created from seashells and the #1 place in the world for shell picking as its the only island that faces a certain direction so all the shells land there. Its accessible by car and the cutest island for little shops. Lovers key beach is down the road from ft myers beach which is a protected sanctuary that u can trolley or walk to the beach from the parking lot. They have kayaking, paddle boarding in the sanctuary as well for a close up to small alligators or manatees if its the right time of year.
Im not sure if they do but I believe they may have one near ft myers when I was first going there 3 yrs ago. Near ft myers theres also a place called everglade wonder gardens..kinda small but u can hand feed flamingos and throw food to some alligators. Kids liked it a lot. Its not huge but its in bonita springs. The mote marine aquarium in sarasota is a MUST for the kids! Ive been to many large aquariums in the US and the Mote was by far my favorite. Even has a giant squid preserved!
Omg thank you for the huge list ! I haven’t even started looking at places yet because this whole tax thing is stressful! I’m going to have to put these down on a list of things to do with the kiddos! He really likes dinosaurs, do you know if they have a Dino place ?
Ft myers is best, close to sanibel island (by car), lovers key beach and sanctuary, Sarasota mote marine aquarium and siesta key beach. Definitely look those up! Our kids love it and we did too!
Or orlando if you’re looking for busch gardens, universal studios (awesome!), ripleys believe it or not, sea world and of course the overpriced disneyworld. I also highly suggest using airbnb as u can rent a house for cheaper than a hotel. I do it for every florida trip.
Honestly it will be our first time there ! Do you have any suggestions? My oldest is 4 years old !
We go down to southwest florida, like the Naples, Ft Myers area. Where do you plan on going?
Yea that definitely would be nice to be debt free! We took 4 of our kids to Florida last april and let just say thats the reason we’re going alone this april haha. It was fun but it was stressful too keeping track of them all.
Omg have fun in florida! I plan to take out the kiddos to Florida this summer too ! Im so excited for it ! I was hoping this tax came early enough to pay off all my debts so I’ll be debt free for the time being when going on vacation!
I hope so! But I filed and got approved on 2/15 so I might be a few more weeks. I guess its a good thing maybe bc I probably would’ve spent most of it by now if I had it weeks ago lol I have a trip to Florida booked for April so if I dont get it until then, then at least I’ll for sure have a lot of extra spending money instead of just a few hundred! Haha grass is always greener
Still no update … I hope next week is our week! I have a hunch it will be, since the people who filed end of January got there’s updatedt this week. Maybe it be like that for us next week !
Same. No update.
Still no change for me. Ugh come on!
@tina
Hi Tina, I hope everything is going fine with your cancer treatment and that your health is well! I am sorry that you and I and everyone else who filed hasn’t received there funds yet, I hope you can keep pushing through these tough times and stay healthy for the ones you love and the for those who loves you !Still nothing. So frustated! I should have waited to have my surgery and cancer treatment till I had the money. Granted I get short term disabilty but I am still waiting for that as well. All my savings have been spent on my cancer treatment and living as this is my second battle in less then 3 yrs. I just wish the state would let us all know what is going on..I have never waited more then 15 days.
Hi, just wanted to follow up for those still waiting. I’ve called 5 times and got the same answer that it takes time. Don’t hesitate to call them. I told them I need the assurance of a live person to see if there have been letters sent, etc. Earlier in this thread someone posted a link to an advocate office for the state of Minnesota and I called them as well to find out if there is a limit of time that we have to wait. They told me that there is no law that says they have to process these returns by a certain time but if you are having a hardship they can, one time only, process your taxes in an expedited manner but you have to show proof of that hardship which might be something similar to eviction or something like that. Just FYI
Mines still processing Feb 3 ugh…
I filed and was accepted in the early morning hours of Feb 9th. Still on processing. I pray I update soon and so does everyone else still waiting.
Congrats to those who moved from process to preparing refund ! I’m still in the process boat, I filed feb4 …
We filed on Jan 29th and ours JUST changed today, too, to preparing refund. Finally!
I filed my taxes they were accepted on January 30th, I got my federal on the 2/27/2019. My state finally changed over today 3/6/2019 to preparing refund. I’ve never had to wait this long for a state return. Thanks Mark Dayton.
Christine- you could try calling and verifying that they recieved it and at the same time, ask how long their verify process takes before refund approves. Typically for reviews they say 45 days to process.
I am still waiting and got a letter saying I am under review. They requested my North Dakota taxes. I live in North Dakota and work in Minnesota. Anyone have any idea how long it takes to process refund once yournin review? I sent the document back to them the day after I received the letter and still no update it’s been a week now.
Terra- I’ve seen others wait about 3-5 days before theirs moved to Sent from Preparing.
Terra- When did you file? I got my mn approved on 2/15 but still no update. Maybe they’re going in batches based on approval weeks?? Idk.
Looked this AM and said preparing refund, does anybody know how long it takes after that?
I never got a letter or anything so idk why they aren’t sending it
Accepted 1/28, recieved a letter verify identify on 2/14. Just moved to sent today (3/4)
I just did this year so wierd
Seems everyone that I’ve talked to who filed the first week of Feb are still waiting like the rest of us…
Anyone know when they update? Ugh it’s been over a month.
Another week and still no refund
So sorry Tina!!! Hoping your journey is as painless as possible. We, like you, are totally dependent on this refund to get by. I’ll pray yours comes soon and that your treatment goes smoothly and quickly!!
Tanya’s
Me either I always got my state within 7 to 14 days. Granted I am getting the biggest refund I ever have from the state but I am now a single working mom with two teens and claimed zero. I just want it to be done I’m out on disability for the next 6 weeks or more having cancer treatment and while I get paid I am waiting for the company to pay me. Ugh. The money would make me feel better.Tina I filed fed and state on the 29th. I got the fed a week ago but no change on state. Still pending. In the past 5 years my state never took longer than 12 days.
Tanya’s I used Turbo Tax, I got my Federal Monday, No updates for state guess I’ll wait the weekend out. Anyone know what time their system updates during the week?
