WAIT… WHAT?? IS IT JUST ME? EARLY FILERS/19TH FILERS!!

[MCRT88]

So I am hearing that people called in and the IRS is saying that they dropped us into one big pot. That even if you filed early, you weren’t truly accepted until the 19th and that it is 21 days from that day..

OK. I GET THAT.

But, it clearly states on A LOT of websites including the IRS that it is on a “First in, first out” basis unless your refund has certain forms including Injured Spouse, Etc.. HOWEVER, if we were dropped into “One Big Pot”, that means that on the 19TH that everybody that filed early and was basically just sitting in a que, would then be accepted that day and be dropped into the same pot as the people that filed on the 19TH!! Then, everybody that filed after that, would go in after them. Or at the very least, everybody on the 19th would be first and then the people who filed early would be after..

So, if this were true, the people who filed on the 19th and were accepted on the 19th were basically accepted on the same day as somebody who filed on 1/11-1/18 and from there it is on a first in, first out basis. THEN HOW COME there is people who filed on 1/23 now getting DDD and people that filed 1/11 – 1/19 still without DDD?
UNLESS they waited until 1/23 to drop everybody into one big pot?? I am confused now that these people who filed 1/22-1/23 are getting DDD for 1/29 and 2/1???

WTF!!!!!!!!!!!! Lol…

I filed on 1/21 and was accepted same day still only one bar and no Ddd info. Smh. This happened last year but there were delays on Education credits. Not sure if the same problem exist this year.

I think it has to do with processing centers. The IRS has multiple ones you go through. I go through UT and they are always one of the faster ones I have noticed from looking on here through the years. I recall people looking at their codes on their transcripts saying Crap I got such and such and they were a week later then other people.
