Missing Bars Anyone with experience please, panicked!

[Aspis]

Hi Guys,

OK, I filed and was accepted on February 12th. Since then, been on one bar with no change. This morning, all of a sudden, bars are missing. It says a date will be provided when available, with tax topic 152. Cannot order transcript yet either. 21 days will be up Friday.

So, people who’ve experienced this please help! Because I’ve heard horror stories of being under review, but also stories of a DDD soon after.

Anyway to tell which it is, review or date coming soon? Does the fact it still says topic 152 mean it’s not a review?

Rent is due, I’m panicked to death, please share any experience y’all have.

Thank you!

I’m in the same boat.

Filed 2/12
Accepted 2/13

1 bar until 2/29 when I lost all bars and it now shows nothing. I still can’t order transcripts and this waiting game is getting annoying. My cousin and I both filed with TurboTax and he got his refund last week on 2/18. But I haven’t seen anything except my state refund. I’m going to wait till my 21st Day mark, to call the IRS. I had a simple return like I’ve had every year. I just don’t know what the hold up is this year. I’ll keep you guys updated when I call them on 3/4. Hopefully I just have to verify ID or something. But who knows.

So here’s my background
F/A 1/29/16
Order transcript 2/5/16
Lost bars and tax topic 2/6/16
Called IRS and a very nice agent informed me that I would receive my refund 2/22/16
Unfortunate I didn’t. I think I would have had that date if I hadn’t went on the IRS site and verify my identity….So after receive my transcript for 2015 using my old address at least that’s what I thought. Instead it was a letter informing me to call identity protection, so I did and was told in 2013 someone had tried to file a return in my name and he also stated that I didn’t need to verify my identity but he did updated my address to my current. After three days my new address was available but still the same message on WMR “being processed and a date will be provided when available”. After stalking this site I read where someone said that you can’t jump ahead of verifying yourself before your 21 days so I waited until my 21 days which was 2/19/16 and called the IRS. The agent was very nice and gave me a number to contact IP. I was asked 5 question and passed and was told that he was going to release me for continue of process and allow 6 to 8 weeks. My wording change 2/25/16 to my return was received and is being processed and on 2/26/16 I got a date for 3/2/16 DD. I receive my refund and I thank God for allowing me to find this site three years ago. I pray everyone get their money soon????. Stay blessed everyone here’s to a better taxes season next year

Filed 2/15, don’t exactly remember when my bars disappeared but it has been a while. No change and can’t order transcripts. Pretty simple return similar to my last one. I got my last refund in 8 days. This is taking forever. Might call today.
