This year seemed to run smoothly. Filed 2/22 got an update over the weekend with a DDD of 3/1.
-
I guess everyone is good this year? Lol! Just wanted to chime in and say that I filed on 2/19 and finally got an estimated date of deposit for 3/1. Wish federal taxes were this fast 🙄
-
Apparently I have an $88 offset which they are waiting for the money to be taken to pay and then they will send me a check for the rest. Lord. It’s been a few weeks already. I’m done even checking anymore.
-
My refund just deposited to my account overnight
-
Don’t feel bad I still didn’t receive my direct deposit from VA yet as of this morning
-
I’m sill processing! So annoyed.
-
If anybody sees this and you have a DDD of 2/23 have you gotten it early
-
Everybody must have received their refund already I don’t see anymore post after me
-
I woke up this morning check my refund statuses and it said issued expect between 3 to 8 days with a DDD of 2/23 hopefully I get it Friday and I had no offsets
-
In my secure message on my online account the responded back and said it was released and I should see receipt up to 3 weeks
-
I had to submit my w2s and ID. Did so on Friday. Called today and made sure they received it. No update yet but I’m sure I will be offset because I always am. Ugh.
-
Mines didn’t update yet it probably will Thursday or Friday I’m going to check it in the morning and tomorrow afternoon just to see tho
-
Howard my status finally updated today I was offset by $408 :( they said my refund issue date is 2/16/23 allow up to ten days to receive . But the treasury verification letter came in only 2 days so I’m hopeful. I was expecting an offset from some red light tickets eek.
-
Jessica thats the same message it gave me… I just had to submit my social the corresponding ID number on the paper amount of refund and the year to clarify that it was me that submitted the return I’m going to check in the morning then call
-
Howard “online they said my wheres my refund should change in 3 to 4 days hopefully sooner”
Did it say that after you submitted online or did you call and someone said it to you on phone? Only asking because after I submitted mine the little note said that’s they have 60 days to process after it’s received.
What did it ask you to submit if you don’t mind me asking ? -
I got the refund verification letter today and submitted the info online they said my wheres my refund should change in 3 to 4 days hopefully sooner
-
Basically SSN the ID # they send with letter and the amount u are expecting
-
James what information did they ask for I’m trying to see if it’s the same for alot of people… I checked my USPS informed delivery and the letter will be here tomorrow
-
Had to do verification myself did firday and Tuesday received DDD
-
I think they are trying to buy them selves time as well I never had a hold on my state refund I never receivedthe letter they say they sent out… my 2021 federal refund still hasn’t been processed…
-
Received refund verification letter on Feb 8th. Uploaded same day at 5pm all the materials requested (my 1099s and drivers license ) . I sent a message thru site immediately after to them letting them know I uploaded everything (just to cover all tracks)
Of course no reply back yet. And still is processing :(It’s weird why they are doing this when I’ve been going thru turbo tax every year for years . And it’s all basically the same info . And the same type of 1099s for the last 3 tax years . But this is first time they are sending letter… almost feels like they are trying to buy themselves extra time . Also I’m in Va Bch
-
Have they posted your DDD yet
-
@howard 2 days for my letter. Went out the 6th and I received on the 8th. I am in VA Beach.
-
I filed 1/ 31 and was accepted 2/ 2 it was taking long so I called and they said a refund identity verification was sent out on the 5th I checked my va tax account and it shows the 8th I still haven’t received the letter if you got a letter how long did it take to get it I’m in Fairfax VA I know they probably send it from Richmond
-
Received my letter. Uploaded W2 s and last year’s tax return Adjusted gross income and my social. I hope it is good to go and goes through fast!
-
My DDD was 2/13 but it hit my account this morning. I have a traditional bank
-
Logged into my va tax account and said my deposit date is Feb 14.accepted on the 24 th.how long will it actually take to see my refund.I have turbocard
-
This is Shay37 btw.
-
Hi, I’ve been trying to post here since Saturday. I finally updated Saturday with a DD date of 2/13
-
Mine got mailed. I guess I must’ve had an offset. Ugh.
Unless it always says the “please wait 10 days” thing.
-
It has been taking forever so I called. Of course an ID verify letter was sent out. Ugh. Praying for a simple one!
-
Same here! Mine says is processing. Fingers crossed on a refund soon!
-
Hi all, new year, new tax season. Just checking in. I filed on 1/23 opening day. I was accepted the next day. Still waiting on an update. Will keep posted on how fast the processing goes this year.
-
First time filing in VA state. My refund was processing but now i am being sent a letter about verification with an address and a fax number.. Has anyone ever received this letter?
-
Hi all, looks like VA is moving fairly quickly this year. I submitted on opening day 1-24-22 and was accepted the next morning. Just got an email that mine was processed this morning. DD date of 2-8-22
-
hello hello hello hello
its that time of year again….hhheeellllooo Virginians
-
Used Turbo Tax. State return E filed on 4 March. WMR, today shows Refund issued, 03/16 scheduled deposit date.
-
Have a DDD of 03/09. I used JH. Has anyone received their deposit before the listed DDD? My federal came days before the deposit date
-
Just updated this morning with a direct deposit date if 2/26
-
Has anyone seen any movement from VA with refunds. Mine has been saying processing since Tuesday
-
I had to ID verify with photo id and 2018 AGI. Submitted 2/18 account history and WMR just updated with a date of the 6th.
During this time I called 2x. One time they said 1-2 weeks the next they told me it could be up to the full 60 days. So for me just a little over 2 weeks until my DDD from when I verified online.
-
I finally got a direct deposit date for March 4th has anyone State ever hit before the direct deposit date
-
I ID verified this past Friday. I’m hoping it doesnt take that ling to get a DDD. 🤞
-
Does the deposit hit before the ddd???
-
I got a ddd of 2/27 today finally.
-
@Skye I called the federal number and nothing was listed there. I tried the 804 number on the VA tax site but apparently I can’t call from a cell phone. I didn’t get that bonus refund check in Oct because of UVA. I figured I would have least received an offset letter my now.
-
I agree! I was offset last year and still had my funds before 2/27. They are stupid slow this year. I’m sorry you didn’t get a DD, have you called the offset line to check?
-
@Skye Mine still hasn’t updated! I think I may have an offset for a medical bill from UVA, but this seems like its taking FOREVER this year. Usually VA is on top of it.
-
Got my DDD 2/27. They updated WMR last night. My DDD came through, and we can finally see that my husbands return is processing.
-
@elled6
My online verify was very simple. Hopefully yours is too. I verified on 2/16. Waiting on my DDD.
-
I called to check about mine and the rep said I will be getting a letter because I have to ID verify, and can do so online. Then they will release the funds and it can take up to 2 weeks. Is online verifying easy?
-
I would definitely call. I did mine myself online and it was accepted the same day.
-
@elled6
It was accepted on the 7th
-
@chachi
How long has it been since you filed?
-
Soo tt says that va accepted my return but when I check WMR on the state website, it doesn’t work says to recheck my info…. anyone experience this?
-
Check came in the mail on V-Day. Would have been Tuesday 2/11 if not for a stupid offset from 15 (!) years ago but pretty painless this year.
-
Actually, same. I used TT card and did a refund advance with them. I’m not sure who my sister used, but now I’m curious.
My letter stated I needed the bank info. It told me to have my anticipated refund amount, and my bank info used, ready but it verified me just by the amount. It’s been a weird year for Va. I’ve always had my state before my federal. Hoping they release funds in “several days.”
-
@skye I have no idea! They are all different I had to verify my bank info. I thought maybe it’s because I used the TT card this year.
-
Still waiting on my VA return.
Both my sister and I got the ID verification letters. Mine was a simple process that asked my anticipated return amount and say my funds should be released in the next few days. My sister has to verify with her w2s and a copy of her ID.
It seems as though VA sent a crap load of the verify letters out this year. Any idea of why?
-
Filed: 1/28
Accepted: 1/28
Was on “we are processing your return” since 2/5 on WMR.
2/13: got a verify your ID in the mail. I verified online the same day.
2/15: This morning I updated to DDD for 2/25 -
Checked the mail tonight and had a ID verify letter from the good ole state of VA. Never had this happen before. Followed instructions and verified online. Received message that stated in most cases, refund would now be issued over the next several days. I was wondering why it was taking so long. Accepted towards the end of Jan. FYI if you’ve been processing a while in VA.
-
Correction, not has been processed but has been completed.
-
So I created an account and for 2019 return says “has been processed.” Does this mean it is actually complete and I should expect a DDD soon?
-
@Maria. Thanks. I got the offset letter today and it was dated 2/10/2020 I am hoping my check comes tomorrow.
-
@ Maria This is my 7th year filing with T.T. However, I decided to use their card this year and now have a verify letter in the mail, too. My guess is that since I’ve always used my Credit Union for my state refund, the T.T. card caused a red flag. From I’ve heard and seen, it is a simple process and shouldn’t take to long for them to release the funds.
-
@crystal Checks usually come pretty quickly. If its been mailed you should get it in a couple of days.
-
I received a letter today to verify and it said to check WMR in 4-6 days. This is the first year I’ve used TT and their card. I wonder if that flagged it for fraud?
-
Been on “we are processing your return” since 2/5 and just got verify you ID today in the mail.
-
01/13/2020 Filed with Turbo Tax electronically
01/29/2020 Return accepted per Turbo Tax
02/05/2020 about midday est Va where’s my refund site finally shows return in processI will update when I get a DD date and when I actually get the money.
Update:
Due to offset check mailed on 2/11/2020
Anyone know how long it takes to get check in mail ? -
I finally got a message back from VA in my online account. They acknowledged they received my return on 1/29 and said they are processing returns in the order received and to wait 4 weeks. My return is not even showing up as processing yet. WMR tells me to verify the info I am entering is correct. I guess we just have to wait. VA is usually pretty fast don’t know what is going on this year.
-
My account says it was processed on 2/7 but I still don’t have a DDD. I think I may call Tomorrow if I have no update today. The past few years I’ve gotten a letter to verify ID but it never took this long to get a letter so I have no clue if thats what is holding mine up or if they are just being really slow.
-
Accepted 1/29… DDD 2/21 updates this morning
-
I am in the same boat. Account history shows processed 2/05. WMR still says processing.
-
I filed with TT on 1/24. not sure when it was accepted. According to the VA Tax website my account shows my return was processed on 2/5 but the WMR shows my return is still being processed. Ugh.
-
Sometime between yesterday and today I updated to a ddd of 2/14 and sent via check per wmr because of an offset.
-
Filed 1/24 with TT accepted 1/27 and I have a state deposit date of 2/14
-
I never got an accepted email either, so I called and they have not even received the return! And I used Jackson Hewitt. I know they are accepting them because I just did my moms taxes on Saturday through Turbo Tax and hers is already processing! If you used Jackson Hewitt I would look into because they lied and said my return was stopped (both Fed and State) when this was not the case for either!
Jackson Hewitt sucks.
-
Filed early January, got an email with acceptance on 1/29 for VA and still not even showing up on VA check your refund site. Just says verify SSN, and year are correct. I don’t know what is going on with VA I have never waited this long for an update.
-
Filed my VA state taxes early January, got a notification it was accepted on 1/29 and everytime I try to check status it tells me to verify the SSN and year are correct. Virginia never used to be this slow.
-
I filed on 2/5 with TurboTax and Got “accepted” for federal the same day, but I never received an “accepted” Email for my VA refund. Also, not showing up on the VA refund status website
-
Just updated to a ddd of 2/20. I filed 1/30 and was accepted 1/31. Good luck y’all!
-
My mom filed after me and hers is processing. I am so over Jackson Hewitt. They messed up my federal and now my state is not even processing.
-
I think Virginia is just moving slow this year.
Filed on 1/21 Accepted text on 1/23 HOWEVER
When I called this morning the VA Tax Representative said it was submitted on1/27 and they accepted on 1/30 and that it’s being processed and to give it time. -
@AL
Verification is easy, I did it online through VA’s tax website by making an account and signing in. It takes like 5min, and you’ll still get your refund on time if you do it that way. They can instant verify. You’ll see a change within 24hrs. If you mail it in or use your tax advocate, it’s going to either cost money (TA), or take an extra 3 weeks (mail).
-
A L…get a tax advocate.
-
Yes it is, any advice?
-
A L…is this your first time ID verifying?
-
Filed 1/27, accepted same day. Went to processing 2/6. Got ID verify today. 6 to 8 week wait mail or fax, 15 business days online verify.
-
Filed 1/27
Accepted 1/30Updated this morning to a DDD date of 2/19. Unfortunately 2 days after my birthday lol
-
Filed early January, accepted a few days later. Status says has not been processed……still. mine does not even say processing. Ugh
-
Still waiting to be processed
-
Filed 1/31 accepted same day, changed to processing at approximately 5pm on 2/7. Still waiting on a DDD as of 1:15pm.
-
Still processing from 2/5
-
Still processing from 2/6. Hoping to receive ddd soon.
-
@alled6…i used jh and mines still proccing..
-
Submitted on the 27th and had my DDD for today.
My kids also submitted same day and they are still processing. -
Anyone has a dd yet
-
I filed thru TurboTax Jan 28th. It was accepted on Jan 30th. Was just able to pull it up in the system yesterday (feb 6th) evening to show that it is has been received and is being processed. I think this is the first year ever I’ve gotten my federal before state.
-
I don’t understand how so many people have processed and received ddd dates and some, like myself, are not even processing yet or get our info is incorrect. Has anyone used Jackson Hewitt and processed?
-
DDD 2/12
-
Checked my account history. It tells me my return was processed and 2019 filing has been completed.
Filed 1/21/2020
Accepted 1/28/2020
Processed 2/5/2020
No DDD yet
@shaymommeee hopefully following in your footsteps and I get a DDD soon! -
Thanks for the info. I had a feeling they’re just being slow. It seems like people who filed 1-2 days before me are just getting caught up now.
-
I filed my sisters and fiance’s on the 30th. It was accepted shortly after but still nothing for them either. Its moving but extremely slow.
-
WMR still tells me to verify my info. I can’t see anything. Filed & accepted 1/31 with H&R Block.
-
Just checked wmr and it now says refund issued 2/14/20. Finally!!! Now to wait on federal.
-
I created an account and checked my status…..it still hasnt even been processed! WTH Jackson Hewitt.
-
To access VA tax account history, login to your account (with the correct link, it should take you right to the login) but if not it should be at the top right of the website. Create an account if you don’t have a login. once logged in go to View your account history under MANAGE ACCOUNT
-
I just updated to your refund done processing but I don’t have no date but yay for finally be able to find it
-
How do ya get to account history.
I still not showing anything except wrong information -
WMR says processing, account history says processed 2/6 (today) and ‘filing has been complete.’ No ddd yet. I wonder how long it will take to get now.
-
As of yesterday evening I finally have seen an update on the site. It is now in processing. I filed 1/27 and was accepted on 1/29. It may be another week before getting a ddd.
-
Filed 1/21
Accepted 1/29
Return is finally showing in VA WMR as processing! -
I had to mail my VA tax form in to the state. Has anyone else had to do this and if so, how long did it take them to process it?
-
01/13/2020 Filed with Turbo Tax electronically
01/29/2020 Return accepted per Turbo Tax
02/05/2020 about midday est Va where’s my refund site finally shows return in processI will update when I get a DD date and when I actually get the money.
-
How did you get account history?
-
My state was accepted in the 29th. Up until this morning I haven’t been able to get anything on the website either. Just checked this afternoon on my account history and it says my return has been processed as of todays date. So I’m now Waiting on my ddd.
-
Yes I not getting anything on the website either I can pull up 2019
But for this year I keep getting please verify information is correct -
Just called the 804 number.. They confirmed it is received but it’s not in processing yet which is why nothing is coming up on the site. I guess it is safe to say they are behind.
-
@Elizabeth Yes, same issue here. Not sure what is going on.
-
Refund website still not acknowledging my state return. I put the correct information in, and its been well over a week since I got accepted. :(
-
State website is updating & giving DDD’s now.
-
@Hailey I am having the same problem too.. It was accepted on the 29th and I still can’t pull it up on the site.
-
I’m having the same issue with state refund. I always get prompted to verify information even though I was notified from TT it was accepted
-
On jackson Hewitt it says in process, but when I look up on the VA state refund site it tells me to verify my info. So I don’t know. Its aggravating though. I’m having issues with Jackson hewitt with my fed too so I dont even know if they submitted it!
-
Is anyone else having a problem with the website saying their info is wrong when you put it in “where’s my refund” it’s been a week since it was accepted and it still won’t let me check the status. Everything it right,
-
“You can pull your account history up.Mine said done processing on the 21st still no ddd.Filed on the 28th.”
Checked account history. Says it has not been processed. Strange.
-
You can pull your account history up.Mine said done processing on the 21st still no ddd.Filed on the 28th.
-
Anyone else getting the following error when checking status. The website says currently processing Feb 10th. Ours was accepted on Feb 5th. I would assume we would be able to check status. Filed Federal on the same day and already got refund.
- Verify that the SSN, tax year and expected refund amount entered are correct.
-
Still saying procesing as of 2/25 they are already working in the 10th of February. Not understanding the process…smh. my easy accepted on 1/31.
-
My Va finally updated to DDD 2-28. Filed 1/28. Accepted 1/31. Records show I was processed 2/17, but just updated with a deposit date this morning.
-
Accepted January 31st and it’s still saying my refund amount is wrong. The website says they’re processing February 3rd now I don’t understand what I’m doing wrong
-
Updated today to DDD 2/27
-
Still get your info not right but I know it’s all correct ????? I’ve always got my refund before now …worst tax season yet 😣
-
Finally seeing some movement. No DDD yet tho.
-
I’m still getting an error msg tht I need to check my ssn and refund amt
-
My VA refund status just updated with a deposit date of 2/27
I wish it wasn’t a week away still, but I was relived to see there was no errors or troubles with my return.
Good Luck to everyone
-
Anyone seen any money from VA yet? I can’t seem to get the refund tracker website to work for the state even though all my information is correct.
-
Finally some movement. My state is now being processed just checked the website.
-
My Virginia tax return was accepted 2 weeks ago but shows this message when I select Check My Refund Status. All of my information is correct so I don’t know what’s going on.
* Verify that the SSN, tax year and expected refund amount entered are correct.
-
The Governor signed the bill. They will begin processing. They advised there will be a slight delay. But that’s fairly good news. This is the first year I don’t owe Virginia money. 😂🤷🏽♀️
-
So fed up with waiting on my Virginia refund this year. This stuff should have been resolved before tax season. Not fair that we have to wait!
-
Jeffrey that’s due to the new tax laws that were effective Jan 2018. Unfortunately, it is correct. Go into your HR department at with and change your state deductions to 0 and you’ll be safe next year.
-
My MFJ return for Virginia seems wrong. I used TurboTax this year and last. Withholding approximately the same. Taxable income slightly reduced. Last year I itemized on my federal return, this year with the higher std. deduction did not. Last year Virginia refunded ~$480 but this year I have to PAY $95. Does this make sense? Any ideas?
-
NEW VA TAX DEAL INCLUDES AN EXTRA $110 TO BE REFUNDED IN THE FALL FOR THOSE MAKING UNDER 50K! MAY BEGIN PROCESSING,FINALLY,NEXT WEEK
-
Good news! It looks like there has been a deal reached for VA tax plan, that is set to be approved in House and Senate next week according to WTOP. They even added an emergency clause so that as soon as it gets signed by the Governor, it will become effective immediately. Fingers crossed this means we are nearing the end of this craziness!
You can see the full article here:
https://wtop.com/virginia/2019/02/deal-reached-for-virginia-tax-plan/ -
This is sad it’s out tax money and they wanna fight over what to do with it ….how about you give to to the people who worked for it .
-
Are any of you other Virginians ready to start causing some uproar?? I’m actually surprised theres not more happening already!! What Virginia is doing is wrong!! They decide to wait until tax season starts to have this war with each other & the Virginia tax payers are the ones left to suffer!! GIVE US OUR REFUNDS!!
-
My federal was accepted on the 22nd, but I haven’t heard a word from Virginia yet; and I normally get my state refund before my federal. Guess it will be the opposite way around this year.
-
I know they aren’t processing yet, but filed 1/22 and haven’t been accepted. Still waiting.
-
Just got a text message this evening that it was accepted. Filed 1/28.
-
Yep. I sent mine the 17th and they still haven’t been accepted. I couldn’t believe it when I saw the message that they are accepting but not processing. Sounds like it may be a mess for state taxes this year.
-
Anyone here in VA beware. They are accepting tax returns but ARE NOT processing them due to the federal tax cut law and that they are “drafting the Commonwealth’s response.”
-
@Medadmin718 I am going thru the same thing filed 4/2 accepted 4/3/. Received letter 4/7..sent over ID’s and w-2’s was told 8-10 weeks…did you get a DDD yet?
-
Direct Deposit was rejected, WMR says check was mailed 3/6/2018.. 21 days later still no check, but received letter on 3/24/18 dated 3/19/2018 that check was being mailed. Why was the DD rejection letter sent 13 days after my refund check was supposed to be mailed?
-
Can some one please help me.., I havent revived federal or state tax still., filled on 1/29, ID verified on 3/5, sent Virginia state tax office the W2 and the ids what they wanted but still no change to my WMR still says the same old., Still processing and a refund date will be available when it’s available..
Any one went threw the same?? -
Filed 2/1 accepted 2/2 still nothing! It’s coming up as if I never filed but freetaxusa.com states that it was accepted. I received my federal on 2/22 so I don’t know what’s going on. I came here hoping to find an answer but it doesn’t look like anyone else has had this issue.
-
Is anyone eles still waiting?
-
Filed 2/7, Accepted 2/7 for fed and state. On 2/12; state said I had a DD for 2/20, but it’s in my bank this morning on 2/17
-
State check came today. Issue date of 2/12/17. Took 4 days, not bad. Good luck everyone!!!
-
Filed 2/1, accepted 2/2. DD scheduled for 2/15 appeared in account 2/14.
-
Thanks @Elizabeth. I just faxed info last night, after they closed. Still hadn’t been processed in when I called. Was told to check back Friday, or next week. Hope it’s as quickly as yours was!
-
I filed 1/27/18….got accepted on 1/29/18…received letter on 2/10/18 for ID and W2. Faxed information on 2/12/18. Received Notice online at 2 am for refund issue date of 2/16/18 via check. The refund was reduced. Hope this helps.
-
@jennifer This just happened to me and I sent in my information and call and was told 8-10weeks.
-
Filed 1/19. Accepted 1/24. Account history says done processing on 1/29. Called, says I gotta fax w2 and id. Anyone had to do this and get their return quickly? ?
-

Update:
Was stuck on processing… Today i got a letter from state saying i needed to go online to refund verifications and confirm it was really me that filed. After doing so, it said I should receive my refund in several days …. Whenever that may be. Will update again when I know
-

-

-
So my state return is on hold until I verified my drivers license and w-2. This happen to anyone eles?
-
Filed and accepted on 2/3, my account history says it processed on 2/7. When I check the status of refund either by phone or online it says nothing processed matching the info Ive entered. Its draining trying to understand. Last year I had paper check in hand before online updated. Grrrrr va
-
So I have an offset will they automatically send me a paper check even if I opted for direct deposit? Will it still update on the paper check is issued?
-
@Sarah – I’ve only seen it update once a day at different times of the day.
-
Still nothing! Does anyone know if it updates during the day or only once a day?
-
Wow still nothing filed 29th accepted 2/1 processed as of 2/2 no approval date yet! Thats just crazy! No offsets do not owe a penny. What gives??
-

-
I filed state and fed in mid Jan. State was approved Jan 26. Was given a DD of Feb 7th and it was deposited to my account this morning. I’m a pather so I’m still waiting for fed, but my transcript give me a DD of Feb 12th.. So, hopefully I get it by the end of next week..
-
Has anyone been approved?
-
@Wellconeone – That same thing happened to me last year and I feel your pain :( The City of Richmond is quick to snatch your money for taxes but slow to use that money for the purpose intended (i.e. – road repairs, school funding, etc.). I can’t wait to move out of the city.
-
Well i said i would update y’all.
Even though I’m salty lol. I called the state of va taxation to check refund status. So my state taxes are processed but are being garnished for property taxes?!?! On my car. One car $725 yikes.
Going down to City billing today to approve them to take from state taxes.
So i can get my $60 refund from Richmond 😂😓🤬 -
Filed 1/29. Accepted 2/1. Processing on VA WMR on 2/2. Reads complete and processed on 2/2.
Waiting for them to open so i can call.
I read a lot of people’s not updating but calling and receiving DDD.
Will update when i find out more. :) -
Filed 1/24
Accepted 1/29
DDD 2/12
@Nikki year before last I had mine set up for direct deposit but there was an offset and they took part of my refund and sent me a paper check for the remainder. I would call and check with them to see if that may have happened to yours. -
Just got a letter in the mail today from VATAX requesting additional information before they will release my refund. Totally sucks but my refund is being held until potentially March after they receive a copy of my W-2 and a secondary form of I.D.
-
Filed 1/24
Accepted 1/29
Updated to DDD for 2/12 on 2/3 -
Filed 1/25. Updated to refund sent 2/6/18 by check even though it was supposed to be direct deposit. So idk even know when I will be getting my refund since they went it by check
-
updated to refund issue date 2/12
-
I registered as an individual on the VATAX website to view my account history and it says my return was processed on 1/29/18. Today is 2/3 so I don’t know why my refund hasn’t posted yet.
-
Filed 1/29. Accepted 2/1. Processing on website this evening 2/2.
-
Va state approved 1/29 updated to processing 2/1…no other updates yet no DD
-
My VA return was accepted 1/29, VA website says processing as of 1/31
-
Im not sure if that effects state but I did my taxes and got accepted but state is still pending idk what that means but I’ll wait until Monday
-
im new to filing state taxes, i claim eitc. how does the path act affect state refunds?
-
Filed and accepted 2/4. VA WMR says DD scheduled for 2/15.
-
Definitely register on the taxation website like others on here suggested. I didn’t get much information from the generic refund tracker but was able to get a little more information from registering and looking at my account history. Even though state accepted my return on 2/1 it wasn’t processed until 2/6. It updated this morning to say my refund was issued on 2/15. (Hopefully in my account sooner). Hope this helps! Happy taxing!

TO ALL INQUIRING WHY YOUR VA REFUND IS TAKING LONGER TO PROCESS. I was advised by a VA Tax Rep. that taxpayers who filed earlier than the VA start date will likely receive a letter requesting more information to process your return. Filing early prompts their system to ask for more information to insure a fraudulent return hasn’t been filed. If you filed AFTER their start date then you will likely receive your refund much quicker. BOTTOM LINE: If you filed your 2016 VA tax return earlier than the start date you may want to consider waiting until the season has officially started when filing your 2017 state tax return.
-
I filed on 01/28, accepted 02/02. Tax account says I was processed 02/08. Where’s my refund says still processing. Hoping maybe the money will pop up sometime next week.
-
Excuse the typos.
-
Heads up VA… My friend fri her taxes 1/31…and got her state TODAY although the Via taxation site gave her a status of still processing. So, periodically check your bank accounts..!
-
Va state accepted Jan 26, finally received an updated msg on Sat that it is now being processed. Any outlook on how long til DDD? I know federal will be after 15th. Just wondering if anyone has already been there done that and how long it took after the processing msg. Thanks!
-
@ERw – that’s good news for you. I filed my Federal and (Virginia) State taxes on 1/26. My Federal was accepted within minutes and state was accepted 2 days later. The (Virginia) site didn’t update my return to processing until last weekend and it’s been stuck on processing since then. My federal refund was deposited yesterday. Hopefully we will have a DDD soon, too.
-
I spoke with them yesterday as mine has had the processing memo for like a week. She told me that in their system I have a ddd of 2/13. The online system hasn’t shown anything yet other than processing:

Accepted Jan 26, finally recieved now processing msg on Sat morning. Just wondering if anyone else jas been there done that and a time frame from updating to processing . How long til DDD. I know fed will be after 15th. Thanks
-
Hello All,
I called and had an agent verify my refund has a dd of 2/13. Hopefully it will be there Saturday wirh5my netspend!!! -
I just spoke to an agent also and she confirmed that they are mailing mine on 2/10 (as I had a small offset that I was unaware of lol). So FINALLY I know something!!! YAY!!
-
I spoke to an agent. She confirmed with me that I was processed on 2/3/17 and I have a refund date of 2/9/17.
-
So…I did what Ms Chanel suggested and registered on the Va site. I was able to see the same thing and had a va return complete and processed on 2-3-16. I still didn’t get an update on the WMR so I decided to call just to make sure there were no offsets. I spoke with a rep and she was able to give me my ddd 2/14. So, evidently as long as you’re processed they have a ddd and WMR just isn’t updating. Welp, guess I’ll just wait until the 14th and see what happens. Just glad to know that everything went through ok.
-
So my VA state just posted to my rush card! I had dd of 2/9 given by two over phone
-
Thank you for that update!!! I hope mine will update soon. I have not received any kind of letter from them YET! I filed my state on 1/20 and it was accepted on 1/26 and it just says that it is processing and to check back later. I checked the other website that was posted in here and it says my return was processed and completed on 2/3/17 but it does not say that the refund has been sent yet :(
-
Update***
I give VA taxes on 1/13 it was accepted and processed on 1/19. Was sent letter of review on 1/30 faxed w2 and faxed on 1/31 (they received same day) called VA tax dept she says my refund is scheduled to go out this Thursday 2/9.
So for all those asking if VA state being held its not will update once I see it in my bank I have rushcard.
Also VA customer service advises if u have letter of review send in asap before the big rush and you’ll process faster!

Hey hey everyone! I just want to share some info for the fellow Virginia filers… So it took them (VA) forever to accept it, almost a week & then nothing.. You know – checking the va WMR.. Nothing online about this delay in acceptance which I know has nothing to do with the feds – this is the states crap! So I am aware of Virginia’s online dept of taxation lol.. It tells you your tax info for Virginia.. If you register you will see it all – down to the date your refund was processed.. I check it along with va WMR as they are 2 totally different systems.. It’s simple – I’ll detail so whoever wants it can at least get an understanding of where they stand with their VA refund..

There you will see the Year & Return Status & Refund Status.. Mine finally updated today – took longer this year.. It says – Your 2016 Individual Income Filing has been completed. Return processed on 02/03/2017.. So any day now for VA.. I filed VA 1/23 & they accepted 1/27.. Earlier today it was processing & late afternoon it was processed!
Hope it helps someone else – information is key! ✔💯😉 -
Found this on Virginia state returns this year:
“Timely and accurate processing of every return is a priority for the department. As refund fraud schemes grow more elaborate, we may need to take extra time to review returns. This means it will take longer to issue refunds to some taxpayers than it has in the past,” said Tax Commissioner Craig Burns. “To prevent refund fraud, we’re enlisting the help of tax professionals, employers, payroll providers, and taxpayers.”
I am thinking this means it will be delayed until after the federal is approved.
-
My VA state return was accepted on the 4th (a little after midnight) and today when I used the state “where’s my refund” tool, it said: “Your return has been processed.”
Prior to this, it gave me no information at all.
When I access returns from previous years, it says the same statement at the top, but offers a DD date below.
I was also able to order a federal transcript today/see it online- as a side note.
I’m guessing this means it will be DD soon, I just wanted to see if anyone else has had this happened. In the past, I’ve forgotten to even check the VA tax website and simply been pleasantly surprised to see more money in my account.

Debbie what happened with your return? I filed 2/6 and I kept getting a generic message until 2/25. That day it updated to processing and the next day to processed. I called today to check the status and was told there was an error on line 21 and that had been disallowed. The return is now being reviewed but rep could not tell me why and that a letter was sent. Automated system says refund reduced but no date or any other details.
-
Did you ever get your refund? Mine continues to say processed no date and now they day they have sent a letter but its been two weeks and no letter.
-
I filed and was accepted on Jan 31, 2015. It continues to say processing with daily email update alerts saying my status has changed. When I go check, nothing has changed on the status. This is the longest it has ever taken Virginia to process our return. I did file through TurboTax and I know there was some issues with TT state returns where they had to be retransmitted. Not sure but this may be the reason for the delay.
-
Mine was pending in my account Saturday morning so i went out and did a little shopping with it!
-
Mine says the same have you gotten an update?
-
My VA tax refund was accepted on 2/02 (filed the 28th). The website just kept saying processing and I signed up to get email alerts (at the bottom of the website). In Feb 6th at 5am i got an email from it saying my status had changed. So I get on the website that afternoon to check and there was NO change, same old processing, etc. This morning (the 7th) I got another email saying my status had changed. Just logged on and it now says I’m processed and will get my refund deposited 2/10.
-
I also just filed my VA state tax, let me know when DD is made. thanks
