@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? ?
Filed 1/13, federal accepted 1/13 state accepted 1/16. Got a letter last week for online verification, got a ddd for state of 2/16.
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
Still nothing!!
Had a DDD for 2/12/2018
It is in my account today.
I have a issue date for 2/6 but they sending a paper check. Still haven’t received the check yet! Do it really take 10days??
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??
Updated 2/9/16 with ddd of 2/16/2018 fiilled 2/5 accepted 2/6
Filed 2/1, accepted 2/2, DDD of 2/15 reported today.
Filed 1/26..accepted 1/28 DDD 2/09…. state refund dropped a day early. I bank with USAA.
Filed 1/28, VA accepted 1/31. Just updated to refund will be issued on 2/12 (I chose paper check, thought they were going to take my property taxes like usual) about time!
So my account history said my refund was processed on 1/29 but va wmr showing I’m still in processing :(
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 2/3Filed 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..!
@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
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!
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.
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
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.
