Nope, filed and accepted on 1-31-14. Slow ass government..fast to take money, slow to send it back.
-
Mine was accepted on 2/2/13 and I still have not received my refund??? Today is 2/11. I efiled like I always do and already paid the fees through turbotax. Usually state is the fastest. Still no refund and the wisconsin state refund status website is a total fucking joke!! does not give you a refund date or anticipated date like they used too???? Say’s Efile can take up to 3 weeks after acceptance? REALLY? Why is that?
-
excuse me 2/2/14 not 13.
-
Mine was accepted on the fifth and have seen no change in the website as far as my refund? Years past it was usually five days?
-
Anyone get their Wisconsin refund today? I was accepted on Feb. 3rd and still nothing???
-
-
I received my Federal refund today but my State of Wisconsin status still says processing. Very frustrating
-
acceoted 2-4-14 and still nothing.. both fed and state still say still processing.
-
Has anyone received a Wisconsin state ddd yet? Also, when you use the tracker, what message are you getting? What’s standard for the second section?
-
Has anyone received a refund yet?
What messages are you seeing at each of the three sections of the tracker?-
3 boxes:

-
after having the 8-12 week msg got msg saying refund will be deposited by 2/5
-
Used Taxslayer filed 1-16, fed accepted 1-18, state accepted 1-19. Check WI revenue dept today 1-20. Pizza pie all complete, “Your return has been processed and your refund should be direct deposited into the account provided on your tax return by 01/27/2016.”

My Wisconsin was accepted on 1/20/2016 and on 1/21/2016 my return was complete. It says that my refund should be deposited by 1/27/2016. Wisconsin is moving really fast this year!
-
Filed with Turbo Tax 1/12/16, showed as accepted same day. Started processing 1/19-1/20, return complete 1/22/16. Offset taken and ddd for 1/27/16
-
I have a ddd of by the 01/29, normally it would give an exact date but they must of changed the wording. Just glad it’s schedule to be deposited.
-
My state was refund was in my bank today, two days earlier than what the intial date was (1/27).
-
File my 2015 tax return 1/19/16. Got accepted the same day. My state refund is only showing that the process has been accepted and is being reviewed. It says to allow 8-12 weeks for processing. I’ve been trying to log onto the WI “where’s my refund” site all day but it won’t load. Anyone else experiencing these issues?
-
FILED MY RETURN JAN 19,2016 RECIEVED JAN20 STILL NO STATE REFUND NOR UPDATE WEBSITE STILL DOWN
-
Taxatic do you know why the state website is down?
-
NO I DONT KNOW WHATS GOING ON IT HAS BEEN LIKE THAT SINCE THIS AFTERNOON
-
Here’s a perplexing one. Yesterday I checked the WI site and I have a message that my refund will be dd by 1/31/16. It’s nice to have a general idea, but it’s a little vague. Nothing today, so i’m assuming tomorrow or Friday. Too bad the IRS isn’t as efficient as the state of WI.
-
I still cant even access the state website
-
Filed and accepted 28th for both federal and Wisconsin. Wisconsin now showing under review, 8-12 weeks. Is this the standard again this year? I know my Wisconsin showed the same thing last year for a few days before updating with a DDD.
-
State was accepted 1/27 Also got the 8-12 weeks message. They did the same thing to me last year and I ended up getting it really fast with barely any warning that it was coming.
-
I got Confirmation of a 2/7 DD for WI this ,morning. still no progress on my feds though.
-
Update for those with the 8=12 weeks notice. I was give a DD date today of BY 2/10. Pretty sure last year was a similar deal and my deposit actually came earlier than expected. So if you got this warning, there is a chance you won’t be waiting nearly as long as it says. Same as last year.
-
Thank you Jesse for updating! I filed and was accepted the day after you so hopefully something tomorrow.
-
I also had that 8-12 week notice. Hoping to see that DD soon. Ill update when it comes. Good luck Annie!
-
Thank you CeCe! When did you file/get accepted?
-
Hey there. Sorry i filed on 1/27. my state has cleared in my account as of yesterday. Any luck for you?
-
HI is anyone having the 8-12 week message longer than a week? I filed mine 1-29 and it’s still saying 8-12 weeks as of today. I filed my daughters 1-31 and she now has a deposit date of 2-11. I called I was told u have no letter being mailed and it’s still processing. I didnt have anything different on my tax return this year. Still nothing on federal still sitting as processing.
-
@csbrooks – Yes, I filed and was accepted the 28th, still have the message. :(
-
Filed and accepted 1/21. Still havent heard anything about my state taxes.
-
Has anyone who had the 8-12 week message and YouTube video for longer than a week, heard anything? Day 12 for me. Hoping I hear something soon!
-
Filed 1/26 accepted 1/27 simple return with 4500 in homestead credit. 8-12 week message still today and no movement.called wi irs they said same thing website said and said no more info was required. Anyone else have this issue?! Used turbotax
-
@Reid -Yes, I’m still getting the same message. *sigh* Filed/accepted the 28th, no movement. No letters.
-
@annie does this mean we are being reviewed? Ive never had it take this long. Sucks!
-
@Reid It means that I am anyway. Received notice in the form of a letter last week. Oy.
-
Anyone see updates? Im still stuck on the 8-12 week message, with no updates, no letters. I remember I had this screen for a few days and then got my refund and message changed so far not this year. Its crazy normally my federal takes almost 1 1/2 months and my state less then a week, this year I received my federal exactly one week from my file date, amd state still with the 8-12 week message..:…
-
Accepted late last night, standard 8-12 week message shown
-
Filed my WI on 1/18/17. Can’t remember for sure when accepted, but was within a day or so. Have a DDD of by 1/28/17. So probably tomorrow as Thursdays seems to be when WI usually does DD.
-
Filed on Monday, 1/23, accepted same day (1/23). Today (1/25) it says my return has been completed and will receive DD by 2/1.
-
WI refund was deposited in my account this morning. That’s a week turn around for state. The IRS should follow this example.
-
So before approved in wis what did the website message say…mine was accepted on1/20/17 and says please allow up to 1w weeks to review
-
Sorry 12 weeks
-
Again sorry…accepted 1/24
-
Anyone who got accepted on 1/25 have an update from Wisconsin? I know last year, my return was accepted and approved on the day of opening. Just curious if anyone accepted on the 25th have been approved yet.
-

-
accepted 1/24 dd 2/4 …h&r …but get to wait till 2/15 for federal
-
Filed 1/24 accepted 1/25 and still on the please wait 12 weeks to receive your return message for state.
-
Got ID verification letter yesterday. After completing the process, now says to check back in 6 business days for status.
-
Filed 27th, accepted 28th. This morning I have a DDD of 2/8
-
Filed 1/23, accepted 1/24, still no dd. Still have the 8-12 weeks message. Could really use my money this week… Vehicle broke down this a.m. And because of EIC, have to wait at least 2 more weeks for Federal. This is so stupid. Grrr
-
I still have the processing 8-12 weeks message… Maybe by the weekend it will change.
-
Just checked….accepted 24th…approved 2nd…..ddd by the 9
-
Got a ddd of 2/9 this morning.
-
accepted 1/24..dd 2/4 …just was deposited 2/2
-
Still have the same lame message this morning… :) Accepted 1/25, allow up to 12 weeks… Hopefully by the weekend there will be some movement. Nothing is different on my return this year. So I do not know what problem could exist, if any.
-
I have a DDD of by 2/5(Sunday) any estimate when I might actually get it? I am using NetSpend if that would make a difference.
-
Accepted on 1/17. Still showing Processing and 8-12 weeks. Nothing special about my return. Already received federal back. weird…
-
Question – anyone here file with Credit Karma? I took the leap of faith this year, and I filed my WI taxes on the 28th. They have STILL not been accepted. Reached out to Credit Karma to see what the deal is and haven’t heard back.
Already have a DD date for my federal returns… Wondering if anyone has had their WI returns accepted AFTER January 28th.
-
filed and accepted 1/25. Got my federal yesterday, still getting the 8-12 week message with state. no changes from last year. Usually I get my state before federal.
-
My entire state return was taken to pay an unpaid City of Madison Ambulance bill. It didn’t cover the whole bill.
Can Wisconsin take the rest of the bill from my Federal return?
-
@ Jerry. I don’t think so, but I could be wrong. I had a state offset a few years back and they actually took it out over 2 years but they never touched my federal.
-
@brewcrew87 … Same situation, filed 1/27 with Credit Karma, no WI acceptance, and no updates from Credit Karma.
-
I still have the same 8-12 weeks message this morning…
@ Jerry – there is a federal offset phone number that you can call and see if there will be any offsets taken. (800) 304-3107
-
Same message for me, too. Anyone know how often they update their site?
-
@ mandyhasaband : I think they update overnight, but I am not for sure. I feel like a few years ago I checked in the morning once and my state was not approved, but then I checked again in the afternoon and it was.
It looks like you and I are in the same situation. accepted on the 25th.
-
I remember one year the site never updated, and I got my money. It just seems to be dragging this year. I guess the 25th was an unlucky day to file :)
-
@ mandyhasaband: I guess the 25th is unlucky! Hopefully it will update over the weekend.
-
Finally… I woke up this morning to a state DDD, “Your return has been processed and your refund should be direct deposited into the account provided on your tax return by 02/11/2017”
-
@Joe –
My return was finally accepted late last night. I sent a support message to Credit Karma asking about it on Wednesday but haven’t heard back. Regardless, hopefully yours is moving now too.
The WI WMR site already has updated that they received it and are processing the return – typical 8-12 weeks message for now.
-
I don’t know about you guys but my return was accepted on 1/17 through Turbo Tax. I’m reading through some of these replies and many of you were accepted after mine was and I still get the 8-12 week message. his is totally ridiculous. This is the reply I received from the state:
Standard processing time may take up to 8-12 weeks. We have not requested any further information from you at this time, your return is still in process. Please allow more time for your return to be processed.
If they are not asking me for further info, then what the hell is taking so long??
-
Filed on 1/23 and also still getting the video with the 8-12 week message. Very frustrating. I do know in previous years the deposit made my account long before they updated on Where My Refund. But this is the longest wait I’ve ever had.
-
Same here, federal and Wisconsin both accepted 1/23/17. I have claimed EIC and CTC so I know fed will take a lil while but Wisconsin still says 8-12 weeks. No more info needed as of yet so idk what’s going on. It worries me that I haven’t got a ddd yet. I never waited this long for a ddd unless I was being garnished but then still it would have said something about that by now as it has previous years.
-
Accepted 1/17 and FINALLY see a DDD of 2/11 today. Longest it’s ever taken for WI for me.
-
I also have a date of 2/11. See ya’ll next year :)
-
Accepted 1/17, still no DD. Maybe by next year I’ll get my refund….gotta love it.
-
DDD of 2/8 – just showed up in my account tonight. Best of luck to you guys.
-
I was accepted 1/17 and I still am being processed with no DDD either. Very strange… it seems like the ones that were accepted early are being processed last…
-
It’s why I don’t file until after they officially start tax season. It seems like early filers have a higher chance of being delayed.
-
So I called w.d.o.r. Just to see if they could or would tell me anything. I told him that people that filed after me are getting ddds already while mine says still processing so i asked if maybe my taxes were being intercepted or if maybe they were requesting more info, and the response he gave me was at this point there is nothing show interception or more info for my return and that it is not unusual for a return to take the full 12 weeks to be processed. I really hope that’s not the case for those of us still waiting. I was accepted 1/23/17. No ddd yet. On another note, for those of us waiting for federal due to the path act, my buddy just received his federal return today and he claimed e.i.c. And c.t.c. Strange but hopefully more of us will see ours early.
-
Filed mine through TurboTax and they held it until the tax processing was open for state and federal. Received Fed 2 weeks ago. I have always received my state first. Just ridiculous.
-
Filed directly through state website. Filed 1/23, accepted 1/24. Finally got a DDD today of 1/12. It has never taken this long before!
-
Finally – filed two weeks ago and finally recv. 2/12 as a DDD
-
Received a DDD 02/12 today filed 1/23…Finally an update!
-
Congrats to those who have rcvd a date, I filed 1/23 accepted 1/24 and still nothing besides 8-12 weeks 😣 does the site update at certain times? I’m hoping to see a change soon.
-
Congrats to those who have rcvd a date, I filed 1/23 accepted 1/24 and still nothing besides 8-12 weeks 😣 does the site update at certain times? I’m hoping to see a change soon.
-
The website updates after midnight
-
ok…so if it says the 12th (Sunday) will it come the previous week or the later week…kinda crazy to have a ddd on the weekend isn’t it?
-
also…looks like deposits are Thursdays….
-
Filed 2/3, got approval this morning with a DDD of 2/15, hope it deposits early.
-
got DDD today of by 2-15. originally accepted 1-17
-
Well another 2 days have passed and still no ddd. This is ridiculous. Filed and accepted 2/23/17
-
DOES ANYONE ELSE….think its odd to get a will be deposited by a SUNDAY? 2/12 like there is something wonky?
what day of the week does WI do their dd’s????
-
I’ve heard Thursday’s. but yeah I thought the 12th was a bit wonky. I’ve always gotten mine 2-3 days before the DDD they gave.
-
My DDD was for the 8th, but I got it the night of the 5th.
-
My son had a 2/12 DDD and recv. it last night on his NetSpend card
I also have the same DDD but mine is being deposited into my bank account and it hasn’t shown up yet. I think it will show up overnight and be there by tomorrow. If I remember right, those with NetSpend usually get the deposited a business day before those who have it deposited into their bank accounts -
Well woke up this morning and finally ddd of 2/16/17. Better late than never. Good luck to the rest of you
-
Received my deposit today had a DDD 02/12 filed 01/23
-
So both my federal and state were accepted 1/23. My federal won’t process until next week because this is our last year getting EIC.
But whyyyy is my state taking so long? I got it within 10 days of acceptance last year.
-
guess if you have a Sunday as ddd, it comes Friday.
just for future reference.
got my state of WI today! yay!
-
state accepted 1/24 ddd 2/12 actual ddd 2/10 Wisconsin
-
Mine was filed 1/24 deposited 2/01 with ddd of 2/02 but my husbands was filed 1/31 and his didn’t update he received a letter in the mail 2/07 for Id verification so he called and verified and his was updated this morning with ddd of 2/18. If you haven’t been approved yet check your mail for a letter from Wisconsin dor
-
I filed 1/27 and acepted on 1/27 still nothing.i called they said no notes still processing?????
-
Finally got a DDD of 2/19. I’m hoping it gets here by Friday :)
-
Update:
Checked late last night and got a DDD of 2/25.Accepted: 1/23
DDD: 2/25I don’t know if it took longer because I’m dealing with PATH with my federal but this is the longest my state has ever taken.
-
Just trying to see why my state is taking so long I already got my federal has anyone got their state I have netspend
-
I filed 2/27 accepted 2/28 and its not 3/30 and still have the Wisconsin 8-12 week message
-

-
Barb I was reviewed 2 years ago and I believe it took about 5 weeks.
-
I filed Fed and WI on 1/15/2018. Fed was accepted 1/17, state was accepted 1/23. State gave a DDD of by 2/2 yesterday 1/26/2018.

Filed & accepted 29th. State updated to ddd on 2/3 of by 2/10. Have eic. Had 8-12 week message, its just a generic processing message.
-
Return Received Return Processing
Return Completed 8-12 weeks
We have received your tax return and it is being processed.We are reviewing the information on your return. Allow up to 12 weeks for us to complete processing your return.
If you received a request for additional information, allow 8 weeks from the date you sent us the information.
Filed 1/25 accepted 1/26 Still nothingWe are reviewing the information on your return. Allow up to 12 weeks for us to complete processing your return.
If you received a request for additional information, allow 8 weeks from the date you sent us the information. -
For those of us who claimed Homestead, if the 8-12 weeks doesnt go away in a couple days they want you to send them a copy of your W2 and rent certificate. You can go online and download a picture of them and send it that way.
I had the 8-12 weeks for 2 days and a message from TT to send them this info but before I could it updated to processed and DD 02/07.Some of them are chosen to have this info sent in.
-
I file on the 29th and accepted on the 29th. I still have the generic message stating to allow 8 to 12 weeks for processing.
-
Filed WI State return (h&r) on 1/27 still on the processing 8-12weeks no ddd yet.It is my first Wi state return! I wonder if that’s holding it up
-
Am I the only one that feels this Wisconsin tax year has taken the longest? For the past decade of filing state, it has NEVER taken this long. I filed 1/29/18 and it still shows processing 8-12 week message.
-
Filed 1/25 accepted 1/26 and it still shows processing 8-12 week message. It has never taking this long. When will it update.
-
I filed 1/29/2018 and was accepted the same day. This last Friday I was updated to approved with a DDD of 2/8/2018.
Hopefully yours is on its way already and just hasn’t updated online yet.
-
Filed 1/22, accepted 1/24 and still have 8-12 week message. Nothing special with my return.
Fed DD in account on 1/31. Definitely taking longer than normal for WI this year for whatever reason. -
Does anyone know if Wisconsin WMR updates overnight every night?
-
Does everyone get that all 8-12 weeks processing message with that video at the bottom?
-
Finally got a DDD over the weekend for 2/10. Field 1/29, accepted 1/30 (I believe) has anyone gotten their money BEFORE their DDD? The website says it should be in my account BY the 10th, so hoping it’ll be in there sooner.
-
The 8-12 week message is a generic processing message that everyone gets. I think wmr updates every night. I got my ddd last Saturday morning. Last year mine said by the 9th but I got it on the 7th so yes, they do deposit earlier than the deposit date given. It wasn’t a long wait for me this year but also remember filing season officially started later than the previous couple years so things may be a little behind.
-
I still have the generic 8-12 week message. :(
-
Filed and accepted on 29th. Had to verify identity this morning. Pay attention to small print below bars and look for “need to verify od message”
-
BOTH FILED AND ACCEPTED 01/29/2018
CURRENTLY IS DISPLAYING THE GENERIC MESSAGE
DOES ANYONE KNOW IF YOU HAVE STATE OFFSETS SUCH AS WI PARKING TICKETS DOES IT TAKE LONGER FOR AN APPROVAL?
-
Wisconsin does update overnight. I filed directly through the DOR website on 1/31. I was accepted within 24 hours and updated in 48 with a dd of 2/10. It says “will deposit and should be received in the account by 2/10”. Anyone get it any earlier? I wouldn’t mind it earlier lol.
-
Stuck at second bar 8 to 12 weeks filed 1/25 accepted 1/26 We have received your tax return and it is being processed.
We are reviewing the information on your return. Allow up to 12 weeks for us to complete processing your return.
If you received a request for additional information, allow 8 weeks from the date you sent us the information. With video
Is this normal? No movement at all. How often do they update? -
accepted by the Wisconsin Department of Revenue on 01/30/2018. Stil shows 8-12 weeks. Last year took about 9 days to get.
-
I have a DDD of 2/10 and just got my deposit to my account. Accepted 1/23/18.
-
Still waiting….accepted 1/23….ugh…
-
Accepted 2/2 and it updated with a DD of 2/12 today.
What days does WI deposit or is it an daily thing?
-
I have the same processing message this morning. Please allow 8-12 weeks… blah, blah, blah. I used FreeTaxUSA to file this year. I went to the pdf version of my tax return and I notice that a copy of my federal return is not attached. I bet this is the hold up as Wisconsin requires that a copy of the federal tax return is attached in order to be processed. I am going to try to call the Department of Revenue today. Hopefully I can just email my federal tax return to them.
-
Filed and accepted February 3rd got a message this morning stating that it will be direct deposited on February 14th
-
Filed 2/5. Accepted 2/5 had 8 to 12 week message. Ddd today for 2/14
-
I’ve for the longest time now filed on the Wis DOR site. I never had my federal attached. I still have processing 8-12week message. Ugh. Never had to wait like this before for state refund.
-
Still no update here. Still have processing 8-12 week message.
-
I will just throw this out there as I am currently in the same 8-12week boat as many of you. I work in the accounting department of my company. The situation for my companies employees is that they received their w2’s, however my boss has failed to submit the w2’s to the state of Wisconsin, in which case, wisconsin will hold refunds until March 1st. I received a notice about this and am still waiting for my boss to get us set up so I can submit and get my damn refund! Not saying that is what’s happening to everyone but it’s a possibility.

Accepted 1/28, still says 8-12 weeks. Have never had it take so long. People who filed after me are getting their refunds, I might not file so early next year.
-
I also still have the 8-12 week message and filed 01/29. I submitted mine through the Wisconsin DOR website and attached my federal return so I cant see what the problem is.
-
@Fozzybear That is a good theory. I talked with the Wisconsin Department of Revenue this morning because I was concerned that my federal return was not sent. I spoke with a very nice woman. She asked me a few questions about my return and told me she could see my wages from my employer and federal tax information. She said there were no red flags and that I should see movement soon but could take up to two weeks. So we shall see.
-
I just got off the phone with Wis DOR. The lady stated that she didn’t see anything on my return that would indicate it was being held or delayed. She said the computer analytical process just may be taking a bit longer, but it is still just processing. The waiting game continues…
-
Filed 1/20 Accepted 1/22 as of 2/7 Still on processing phase. I wish it would hurry up. I know I have to wait till mid-Feb for my Federal, but I was hoping to get my State back earlier but at this rate, it’s not looking like it. I think the most frustrating part is knowing/seeing people who filed and were accepted after me get their’s back.

Still stuck on 8-12 week processing message. My friend filed 2/2 and on 2/6 got a DDD of 2/9. Another friend filed 1/29/18 and is still stuck on 8-12 week message. Seems like everyone that filed early or on first day is getting skipped over. Yesterday I called and they said my return looks fine but they are behind and to give it another week. -

Still stuck on 8-12 week processing message.I called and spoke to someone yesterday who stated they were still reviewing but he did say he did not see any red flag or they would’ve sent a letter (he also said as of yesterday nothing in system being mailed to me). Told me to give it another week as they normally
issue within 3 weeks..One of my friends filed on 1/29/18 and is still on 8-12 week message.
Another friend filed 2/2/18 and yesterday 2/7 she got a ddd of 2/9. We all had the same circumstances so not sure why she was processed before us. Lucky her!!
-
Looks like those who filed through a tax preparer service (turbo tax, H&R) are still stuck on the 8-12 weeks. I filed mine directly on the Wisconsin website. Maybe that’s why it went faster? Again, filed 1/29, accepted 1/30, and have a DDD for 2/10
-
Accepted 1/23 finally got a ddd of 2/15! If you had the 8 to 12 week message, don’t lose heart you will get your ddd!
-
No update for me yet. Filed and accepted on the 29th.
-
NO UPDATE FOR ME !!! This is crazy!!!
-
No update for me filed 1/25
-
Filed through Wisconsin DOR and accepted 01/29 had 8-12 week message and finally updated today with DDD by 02-15…
-
Filed & accepted 29th ddd on 2/3 for 2/10. Refund deposited today the 8th.
-
I got my refund today. (Said 2/10 on the website) looks like you can get it earlier than what is posted.
-
Accepted 1/30. Still no update.
-
Filed 2/5, accepted that same night with homestead credit for atate return. Went online and submitted all proof required for homestead credit on 2/6. Woke up today (2/8) and have a ddd for state for 2/15.
If you have the homestead credit send in the proof you need (it’s on the WRA form on your tax rerurn) You can take a pic with yoour phone and submit it. Took 10 minutes.

Wanted to add I used TurboTax to file both federal and state and have the EIC and ACTC for federal. (4 kids)

No update as of today. Getting a little frustrated at is point. Does anyone know when they actually update?

Update: As of this morning I have a DDD of 2/15. Though I am hoping it comes sooner. So they are getting there at least. (Filed through turbotax)
-
@sand the 12th is monday….lol
-
Still no update for me. :( I am thinking the Department may have not processed my employers forms.
Under my Wisconsin tax return information on FreeTaxUSA is states the following:
To combat identity theft and fraud, the Wisconsin Department of Revenue may be delaying issuing income tax refunds until March 1, 2018, unless both the employer and employee have filed all required returns and forms. This means your Wisconsin tax refund might be delayed if your employer has not submitted their information to the Wisconsin Department of Revenue. If you have further questions, please contact the Wisconsin Department of Revenue at 608-266-2486. The Wisconsin Department of Revenue requests that you wait 12 weeks after filing your tax return before contacting them about your refund.
-
No update for me. I hope that’s not the case about March 1st.
-
@ manateej: I hope not. I know my boss submitted all the yearly W2 withholding for everyone in the office on the 31st. I was accepted on the 29th. Maybe they just need to go back to the return and compare. The March 1st thing is what showed up on the FreeTaxUSA filing information. It is just a generic message. That could be the only thing that is going on with my return. When I talk the Department on Tuesday, we went through my whole return and the lady told me everything is fine and I should get my deposit within 2 weeks, one just wasn’t in the system yet. That is pretty close to March 1. Fingers crossed that it comes sooner.
-
No update here either. I think I’m going to call. Accepted 1/26
-
Is it worth calling ? I was going to and see if they needed more info but the website says not to call for so many days. Will they give you any info?
-
Filed 1-12-18
Accepted 1-24-18
Filed through Turbo Tax
Still no movement! Everyone around me keeps getting ddd or their refunds. What is the number to call where I can actually speak to a person? I found the number to check my refund, but that’s all automated. I also have not received a letter in the mail asking for more info. -
@Crystal here is the customer service number (608) 266-2486. There isn’t very much hold time. Keep us updated. I’m so bummed.
-
Thanks so much for the number! I called and spoke to a very nice lady. There are no flags or reasons for mine to be delayed, and if I don’t receive any updated information in 3-5 days, I can call back.
-
Just another update to state no changes…
Filed 1/22, accepted 1/24 and still have 8-12 week message. Nothing special with my return.
-
I just called. They don’t see anything that would cause issues with my return, and I’m getting close to the deadline for seeing some movements, so if I don’t see anything I can call back. He did give a laugh when I asked if they were processing slow because I usually have mine by now and he said he couldn’t comment on the process system. Lol. So hopefully soon I will see more than just one bar
-
Filed and accepted 2/2 woke up to a ddd of 2/14 on 2/7 . As of today republic bank had already issued it out to my bank. It looks as if I may receive it before 2/14. A total of 5 days, impressive and the fastest I have ever gotten a ddd. Good luck everyone!!!
-
Do updates happen on the weekends?
-
Filed/Accepted thru turbo tax on 2/3
Given DDD of 2/14 on 2/7

Update.. yesterday I finally got my DDD of 2/15. Hopefully I’m lucky and it will come earlier.
Filed 1/25 accepted 1/26
-
Hey all. I see some post talk about the 8-12 week msg. I have a msg that says “we are reviewing the information on your return please allow up to 12 weeks….”
Is this the same msg some of you are speaking of ? I think I remember last year vaguely getting same msg but ended up getting refund within 2 weeks. Anyway, filed electronically on Feb 4th,accepted Feb 6th no kids no special credits. Btw,I’m in Wisconsin. -
Not sure what time they update but as of 1am I finally see a DDD of 2/17.
Was still showing 8-12 week message less than 12 hrs ago.(Filed 1/22, accepted 1/24)
-
Finally got a ddd of 2/17. I was losing hope there for awhile. Filed 1/25 accepted 1/26.
-
Still nothing…. Same 8-12 processing message. My only guess is that They started processing my information on the 29th which was prior to my employer sending W2 information on the 31st. Therefore, it put it on hold and my return is just waiting to be looked at again to verify the information matched. Next year I am going to file my state after the 31st.
-
@ danielle1526, I’m in the same boat. I know my employer didn’t get the files transferred to the state until 2/8. I’m not expecting my WI refund until after my federal. It sucks.
-
Still nothing here either still at 8 to 12 wks processing something has to give
-
Still no update.
-
This year is so crazy! We filed on 1-27 and it was accepted on 1-30. Still says it’s being processed and when I called last week she said there was no flags or anything to be holding it up. She said it’s pretty much luck of the draw on who gets theirs first. So annoying cause everyone around me (friends and family) who filed after have already got their refunds or a DDD
-
Mine was filed on 1/27 and accepted on 1/29 still on the 8-12weeks processing!
-
Accepted 1/30 and still no change. Last year it was nine days from acceptance to direct deposit. This is ridiculous. Each year seems they find reasons to hold our money. Maybe we should hold their taxes. LOL
-
Does the state update over the weekend?
-
ID verified on the 29th and I am still on the 8 to 12 weeks. A friend of mine got the ID verify thing same day she got hers the 2nd. One of my daughters received her state n no time second daughter is like me we just waiting.. i called and they keep say aint nothing wrong just slowly processing.
-
Did anyone waiting with the 8-12 week message update over the weekend?
-
No Danielle1526 I did not still sitting at 8 to 12 weeks. Filed 1/25 Accepted 1/26
-
Ours still remains the same as well :( Really a bummer if you ask me
-
I did speak with a lady this morning on the phone at the DOR. She said to give it another week and if we haven’t heard anything to give them a call back. She said she can’t give a guaranteed date but most will be issued in 3 weeks or less. We are going on 2 and a half weeks so here’s hoping we see a change by the end of the week. She said typically there system updates the status nightly after they’ve ran their reports, so for those asking how often they update…it sounds like once a day
-
Filed 1/29. Accepted 1/30. Still processing. I’m really hoping I see an update overnight.
-
Hi. Has anyone received a msg on wmr that says you may have entered information wrong but you know it’s 1000% correct?
Went from path msg to the above.
Filed 2/2
Accepted 2/3 -
I see a lot of people saying there return has been accepted. Mine just says “We have received your tax return and it is being processed.” I am assuming this has not been accepted. I just keep waiting for something besides 8-12 weeks. We filed on 2/2
-
@dustin smith, if they acknowledge that your paperwork is received it means you have been accepted. I’m still stuck on the 8-12 week message and I’m about to tap. Lol
-
@Fozzybear Thank you despite the 8-12 week message at least I know it was accepted

No updates here either. My daughters is only 59$ she still stuck like myself WTH is going on with state??? I have never waited this long unless I was audited and when I called it wasn’t the issue so i have no clue. Impatiently waiting
-
@manateej, If you don’t mind me asking, where did you file your taxes? Ours was accepted the same day and we still have nothing either :( Did ours at H&R Block
-
@Ash17 I filed directly on the Wisconsin DOR site. I’ve been doing that the past nine years. Never had a delay until now.
-
HMM. It definitely is frustrating. Such a waiting game! We have always went through H&R and never a problem till this year as well :( Let’s hope for an update soon!
-
Still no update! accepted 1/24/18. I should have had my return by now, or at least a DDD.
-
Up late tonight; it’s 12:14 am. My return finally processed for a DDD of 2/22
Accepted 1/30.
Finally! YIPEE!!!
I hope everyone else that’s been waiting wakes up with some good news! :)

@manateej: I am so happy for you! I am still processing… 8-12 weeks… I talked with DOR yesterday and they said that it was finished just waiting. Who knows how long this will take. I was accepted on the 29th.

-
Seriously still no update at all :( Accepted on 1/30/2018 and still nothing. They keep telling me everything is fine on our return so where is it? Crazy that everyone I know is getting theirs back and I filed before them. So frustrating

Glad to see some movement for the people who were accepted the 29th and earlier. Still no update for me. This is the first year that I will have my federal return back before my state. :( I am not even going to check anymore. That way it will be a huge surprise when it gets deposited into my bank.

My federal got a date before my state. This is a first. Crazy

My fed was accepted same day and was deposited that next week..
Still says 8-12 weeks for processing. I called DOR and they stated there were no delays and that it’s just processing. I did get a little more back this year for state and am wondering if that is what is taking so long? Any others out here who filed on 02/02/18 that still have that same message? -
E-filed and accepted 1/30/18
2/22/18- Still ProcessingI called and spoke to DOR and they stated no flags, nothing needed, just still processing! So SLOW this year! My Fed was back in 8 days.
-
Finally after 3 wks I got DDD for 3/1
-
As an accountant – instead of waiting for a refund, adjust your withholding tax so there is not waiting you get it in your payroll check.
Except for very low-wage earners, there is sometimes a misconception that a refund is money the gov’t is giving you, it is not.
Say you go to the grocery store and spend $8 and you give them $10 – would you want to wait until you file your taxes the next year to get that $2 back and then would you be excited that you were getting that $2 back? No, of course not because it’s your money. That’s all a refund is 99% of the time, you paid too much out of your paycheck and are getting your change back. If you are checking for a refund daily you need the money don’t wait for it, change your W-4 with your employer.
just my 2 cents
-
Filed at H&R on 1/24. Both WI state and federal have been accepted. WI still saying 8-12 weeks.
-
Hit my three week mark and still says 8-12 weeks. No delays as stated by DOR. Hoping the feed update is behind and I’ll get an update next week. And to Grant on your previous post regarding your take on taxes. Yes, we can have less taxes taken out and take home more right away but, that does not however have any effect on the refund we get for tax credits such as school taxes, marriage taxes homestead taxes etc. We are owed that money and it is not unreasonable to want that money within a reasonable time after taxes are filed.
-
Filed with tt accepted 2/5 still says 8-12 weeks. I called and they stated that they don’t see any issue and all she could say was call again next week that it’s still processing. Does anyone know what days/times the website updates?
-
Man im about to call them up and ask them where is my refund at…….. tired of waiting for them so maybe if i voice my irritation and tell them to hurry the f*** up hopefully those peckerheads hurry up
-
My return was accepted on January 29th. I am still waiting for a DDD. They said everything is fine and I have no letters. I think my return is just stuck in processing somewhere.
-
State accepted 1/30, fed DDD 2/14.
No updates from state – stuck on 8-12 message. Called today and they said no issues, just processing. No letters received. -
Well idk what to do other then wait i dont get how they are taking so long to process the returns this year……. im j.g. wentworth its my money and i want it now

Still in 8-12 weeks processing modeHowever I just prepared a familty member’s return on FreeTaxUsa and there was a message that stated that my state (WI) would not complete and update most returns until March 1st! Its March 1st, still no update or DDD.
Can anyone tell me what time of day the DOR normally hits your account?
-
@Catree31: I am in the same boat. No update for me. I was accepted on the 29th too.
-
Finally broke down and called the department of revenue. Was told there were no letters or red flags on my account. That it can take 3-4 weeks and I was on week 3 (I’m actually starting week 4) and in some cases it can take up to 12 weeks. So not really anything new for information.
Filed and accepted 2/6

Accepted 1/29 still nothing, I have the 8-12 week message :(
-
Still nothing for me either. Filed and accepted 1/31. At least I’m not alone!
-
Still waiting…. 4 weeks yesterday. Checked this monrning and still says 8-12 weeks. I sure as hell hope it’s got a deposit date next week as this is getting ridiculous.
-
Accepted 2/4 still 8-12 week message. My sister filed last week for a dd last night for the 10th. I don’t get it. Both of us have kids filed head of household. She got a letter to id verify on Thursday and already has a date. I called they say no letters have been sent for me
-
What is the number to call?
-
Well, it’s officially been 4 weeks. Still on the processing message. This crap is ridiculous. Come tf on Wisconsin.
-
Well, I’m going on 5 weeks now and I REALLY need my money!! This has been ridiculous! I have never waited so long on ANY state! Called and talked to a lady who said basically anyone and everyone with EIC and/or Homestead would be automatically audited but had no letters for me at all…just a waiting game at this point! I know SO many people tho that have the credits and received theirs a week or two later after filing. SO FRUSTRATED!
-
Filed and accepted 2/6 was showing 8-12 weeks.
Checked last night and processed complete with a DDD 3/10 -
And still waiting filed 2/2/18 still stuck 8-12 week time to call again.
-
Filled and accepted 02/02, still has 8-12 week message… called and no delays noted just “still processing” which I’m getting a little irked with hearing over and over again. Everyone else I know has gotten theirs back and some filed after I did.
-
Still waiting 5 weeks tomorrow. Filed and Accepted 1//31 Spoke with someone last week and it’s starting to get noticed, but we’ll see.
-
Filed 1/29, accepted 1/30. Already received fed. Going on 5 weeks waiting for WI. This is ridiculous.
-
Filed 1/30 and accepted. Federal received 2/22. Wisconsin still saying 8-12 weeks. I called last week and no letters. Don’t know what’s going on.
-
Filed: 2/4
Accepted: 2/5Fiancé filed 15 minutes before I did with TT and she received hers within 2 weeks (before Fed).
This is pure BS! 8-12 week message like most. I don’t necessarily “need” the money, it’s the principle. At this point I wouldn’t have a problem waiting if the status was clearly communicated.
I understand they’re utilizing a 3rd party to audit returns; something has to be going wrong. This sounds oddly familiar, similar to how employers hire 3rd party auditors for benefits – “Hey we can save you X millions of dollars in fraud with no impact to the tax payer, just pay us X millions of dollars.” – total lies. I work in IT and I get the ID theft part but someone’s head needs to roll for this SNAFU.
-
Filed on 1/30 and accepted. Federal received on2/22 and this morning I received a DDD from State of Wisconsin for 3/9. It’s about time. Good Luck everyone.
-
Does anyone know how often the system is updated? I’m sick of waiting for this shit. Filed and accepted in January, got my federal weeks ago. Tried calling and they said nothing is wrong and that is processing. I’ve received nothing in the mail.
-
so note to everyone if you have to submit for a ID verification check then your refund wont start processing until the day you complete your verification. jusyt saying thats what i was told when i called earlier….
-
Alex, same here. It’s ridiculous. I’m really getting ticked off. I need that money desperately.
-
Accepted on 1/29. Just checked right now and I received a DDD of 3/14. Finally. Keeping my fingers crossed for the rest of you :)
-
Is anyone who file on 1/29/2018 still waiting to be approved. My tax return is still processing and WDR said everything looks fine and to give it another couple weeks. Nothing has changed on my return. What is taking so long….
-
Filed three sets of taxes on 1/29. All fed recd by 2/14. one state got on 2/6. Notification this morning getting one on 3/15. One more to go. I hate this process. I called and just says processing. Have received no paperwork. Normally get state within a week of filing.
-
@danielle1526 – Filed electronically through TT – Was accepted 1/29 and still have the 8-12wk message. Was also told the same thing.. That is still being processed. Never received anything that would indicate any problems ect. I wonder if it has anything to do with EIC or Child tax credit.
-
Ding ding ding. Ddd of 3/16. Accepted Jan 29.

Woke up with a ddd of 3/14 – Hoping for good news for all the rest of us that filed back in January.

@ JJ: I think Wisconsin updates at midnight and I am not sure if they update over the weekend as the Department of Revenue is closed. Hang in there. I filed on the 29th and just got approved on Friday. Hopefully next week will be your week!! :)
I looks like a bunch of people who filed prior to the 31st were just recently processed. This may have to do with your employer submitting your wage information to them. They have to submit the wage information by the 31st of January. So if they were late or only submitted on the 31st, your return may have been just pushed back until they verify wages. If you haven’t received any letters, it is coming, just coming slower than usual.
-
Still nothing. Filed and accepted 1/31. I am so over this!!
-
@jj
Same filed accepted 2/4 still nothing
-
Still nothing here. 2/6
-
Well I filed 1/31 and just today got my letter of review. The amount of stuff they want Is just absolutely ridiculous. School records, birth certificates, letter from the clinics, a list of over 10 different things to send in. I owed the state last year and they sure garnished my check for the 113.00 I owed. Now they owe me 20 times that and I have to pull rabbits outta my hat.
F Wisconsin. -
Any idea when there will be a update again. Filed accepted 2/4 still nothing
-
@jessie I called today I’m at 6 weeks since getting accepted and was told a letter went out Friday. So annoying that they took this long. I feel your frustration
-
Here we are almost 7 weeks out and still nothing. I called at week 4 and they said there were no letters. Still nothing in the mail. But how is it possible that I’m not under review or audit if it’s taking this long. It would be nice if the department of revenue actually updated instead of making you wait forever to hear anything.
-
I am waiting to hear back from Wis DOR. I filed in 2017 and they said I wasn’t here long enough and cut my refund from $800 to $134. this year I filed and they asked for Dr Records to prove I have my kids with me. well I don’t have that because we went to the dr before I moved them to Wisconsin .I called and they told me I have no letters pending, then a week later BOOM! a letter!!!!!!! I have my lease and papers from Food share for the children. I sent in what I have. They said I didn’t include 2 w2’s from 2 other jobs. but because I moved I couldn’t get them. I told them I have filed with h and r block for 21 years and I have all 21 filings. they said no… So I still haven’t heard anything I filed 1/22/2018 they sent a letter 3/1/2018. its 3/26/2018 still nothing. I called and they told me what the stooped system said online. Im so irritated with this…
-
I was asked for a long list of proof about my kids also. Certified birth certificates, drs records, a notarized letter from my landlord… Ridiculous. I filed February 4th. Got accepted around February 15th. Got a letter 2 weeks after that asking for all that other info. I sent it off right away. 2 weeks ago they sent the birth certificates back, but I still have no refund and no other information. So frustrating.
-
Finally, 7 weeks to the day after being accepted, received a DDD for 4/1
-
@Jwojo i filed mines and accepted 2/05/2018 but stuck on 8-12 week message do you think mines will update soon?
-
@tree6’8” I thought FOR SURE I was about to get audited as a few here state they did. My best guess was if that was gonna happen you would have received something in the mail by now. It’s just taking a tremendously long time.
-
Got my return and it’s $450 less than it was supposed to be. I had no offsets and received no letter or notifications if adjustments. Thanks Wisconsin!
-
refund was deposited in my account last night after 8 weeks. all is there and accounted for, no issues
-
8 weeks later and I received a letter :(
-
so thanks wisconsin for taking out 683.70 out of my state refund just awesome ……
-
Hello; If the 123 site for Wisconsin State refund status says that my refund will be deposited by 4/19/2018, does that mean on the 19th? What days of the week are refunds deposited?
-
filed thru Turbo tax on 3-15-18……received by wisconsin state on 3-19-18 and the filing status got accepted 3-20-18. however I called in and someone told me they didnt start fully processing it til the 24th!!
WTF Wisconsin, Im still waiting for it to say a direct deposit date other then PROCESSING!!
Anyone else have this issue around the same filing date??
Thanks in advance -
Child tax credit: initially I had heard that it would be DD the beginning of August. Now I’m hearing DD may happen as soon as the week of June 10. Anybody know for sure? We claimed ours on 5/15, and it is currently pending.
-
Shelli, actually it will be sooner if you’ve already submitted the claim. Checking my status today returns the result:
“Approved
We have received your rebate claim and processed it. Allow up to 10 days to receive your rebate.” -
Mr.S,
I got the same thing on Friday afternoon. Now I guess it’s just a waiting game. I have end of school year field trips and a graduation to pay for, that money will definitely help out right now!
-
I got the same thing on Friday to allow 10 days to receive. Do you think it will still be after the 10th of June before they start issuing?
-
I got notification from my credit union this morning that the refund will be direct deposited tomorrow (5/24)
-
Any action here yet?
-
Any action in Wisconsin yet?
-
Any issues with H & R Block saying WI DOR has not given them confirmation as of yet to accept WI returns? Just got off the live chat w/ HRBlock and they say I should wait 48 hours to return to my account to e-file my WI return, EVEN THOUGH, WI DOR site says they are accepting e-filed returns as of today. Not cool HRB, not cool!!!!!
-
@Kimberly I got accepted today (Jan 28th around 2pm), I filed on the 10th or 11th. Not sure what’s going t happen this year.
-
When can we check or taxes for wi. Still showing only up to 2017 not an option for 2018
-
@Cindy I think it’s just too early. Maybe they’ll update the site tomorrow or soon. Refun123 is the way to do it though.
-
@stever awesome thank you
-
I efiled yesterday morning and today it says it is processing and in 6-8 weeks it will be done. What does yours say?
-
The site/app are working today. Mine says
We have received your tax return and it is being processed.
If filed electronically, most refunds are issued in less than three weeks.
Filing a paper return could delay your refund. Our strong fraud and error safeguards could delay some returns up to 12 weeks. -
I meant 8-12 weeks – same generic message as last year.
-
i just wanted to drop in and say i filed state opening day (28th). As of 4 minutes ago. midnight the 31st. Refund is completed. it says i should have direct deposited by the 7th of Feb.
incredibly quick.
filed via the wisconsin dept of rev site Form 1.
EITC and 2 -W2s.
😁 -
Filed 1/28/19
8-12 week message on 1/29/19
Return completed and pending deposit 2/7/19 message today -
Hey, just a heads up if you used h&r block online: apparently they are having an issue and won’t even begin to file WI state returns until 2/5. I foolishly used them for the first time this year for my state return. I just cancelled it and went ahead and filed it directly through the state website. Hoping to get a quick refund.
-
My friend and I both filed on opening day she received message today 1/31/19 with dd date of 2/7/19 and I still have the message wait 8-12 weeks.
-
I filed opening day with tt and still no update
-
Filed 1/12 – Accepted 1/28 – Approved 1/31 – DDD is 2/7
-
Filed 1/19 with TurboTax. Accepted 1/28. Generic 8-12 week message
-
I filed 1/26 via TurboTax and was accepted 1/28. Still showing 8-12 week processing message.
-
Filed 01/29 DOR website
8-12 week message on 01-30
today 02/01 have DDD of 02/09
this is the fastest turn around I’ve ever seen for Wisconsin
-
WI filed on Tuesday 1/29. Received text it was accepted on Wednesday 1/30 and I just checked the Wisconsin Where’s My Refund and it says it will be direct deposited on 2/8/19. This is extremely fast this year.
-
Filed 1/4 Accepted 1/15 – still showing standard 8-12 week message
-
I had to wait until 1/31 to file according to turbo tax, was accepted within hours. Showing 8-12 weeks as of today.
-
Update: just checked and have DDD of 2/9. Last year got it 3 or 4 days prior to the DDD, hope its the same this year.
-
Filed today 2/1/2019 accepted today wheres my refund says processing with an 8-12 weeks in message bar. Is this just a generic message or is this actually how long it will take?
-
I filed my WI state on 1/28 through taxact and when I check WDOR wheres my refund it’s not showing up in their system nor does taxact say it was accepted yet, does this mean Im under review?
-
Filed 01/23 accepted 01/29 still have the 8-12 week message. W2, CTC. Received federal 01/31
-
Wisconsin — is anyone else unable to access the where’s my refund tool? I have tried 2 browsers and the app
Trying to see if somehow I got an update
-
Me and my sister filed on 18th accepted on 28th and are watching people accepted after the 28th recieve dates while no movement for us…. wtf…last year I had my money 6 days after acceptance
-
System is currently down. Tried the website and to call. Hopefully there’s an update!!
-
The website is down until Sunday at 10:am – seems like a strange time to shut down the website on opening weekend.
-
For everyone asking about the 8-12 weeks thing, I get that message every year and I always get my refund within a few weeks. Don’t worry!
-
Site/app are back online. No change here..
-
No change since app and sure came back up. Frustration that people who filed after me are getting approved already
-
Why is it everybody filing after me getting updated still 8 to 12 week message
-
Filed 1/31 updated this morning DDD 2/9
-
No offense to anyone but… I am getting angry at the fact people who filed and accepted after me are getting approved. Arrgg
-
I’m in the same boat Amanda. I feel your frustration
-
Who filed with Turbo Tax? I filed early was accepted opening day and still have the 8-12 week message. This is my first time using them, wondering if that’s the issue.
-
@Jennifer Patton I did, it had me file 1/31 for state and I was updated Saturday with DDD of 2/9
-
I used Turbo tax. not sure if that’s the issue though. State has accepted so they have it..m uggh
-
Accepted 1/28…. still sitting on generic message no direct deposit date…. why are so many people after me getting their dates
-
People who are getting the DDD for Wisconsin may be the lucky ones that their employer electronically sends the W2 information to the state. My employer forgot to mail W2 information last year and it delayed by state return. Be patient, the DDD will hopefully come soon for all of us. :)
-
Crystal
Why did u have to wait until the 31st??? My sister and i were able to file on the 18th -
When do they update accepted 1/31
-
Karen Lee – they dont actually say “accepted”. If your orange bar is over to the “return processing” mark then it has been accepted and they are working on it.
Wisconsin efile opened on the 28th. I think that turbotax had some issues with Wisconsin and didn’t start transmitting until the 31st.
Everyone who is nervous shouldn’t be because everybody gets the 8-12 week generic message and could get approved the next day. Wisconsin has always been a state that processes returns quickly and I have never had to wait more than a couple weeks.
-
I get the EIC and get audited by WI EVERY YEAR. It’s beyond crazy what they ask for! I have my same kids, same job, same address….UGH. I am already expecting it, I have no doubt it’ll happen again this year.
-
This may seem strange. I had my taxes done through h&r block on February 1st. Both my federal and Wisconsin taxes have been accepted on the 2nd on each website.. From what I can see from prior responses. They must be accepting the refunds that were done professionally first, as opposed to those that filed on their own. Or they are accepting those that filed after 28th of January first? Those are the only things I can think of.
-
I filed WI taxes on the 14th of January. (Early) my State was excepted on opening day and federal two days after filing. I am getting the generic 8-12 weeks message for my state refund. No return date. My coworker filed a few days ago and she has a date for her federal and State. Ugh… am I being audited or what? My federal has no bars either just a code saying they can’t release funds until mid-late Feb. Why would my state take so long? I heard they are using early filers to run fraud checks and make sure the system is properly catching everything…..just sucks.
-
I filed on 1/24/2019 no ddd for state ,1 bar fed. Wisconsin updated to 8-12 week message. this is my 3rd year filing and last year I had to call the state officials to get them to release my cash… Why do I keep getting flagged?????????????????? im over it.
-
Does anyone know if stare updates through the day or just once a day
-
State updates at midnight every night.
-
I filed with TaxAct and was accepted on 29th. I showed the standard received and processing message 8-12 weeks. I now have a message stating complete and DD should be received by February 8th and to check with my bank.
My W2 was able to be automatically loaded into TaxAct as well as my previous years info an State Refund verification.
I was also able to verify my AGI from 2017 when filing.
On a Side note my Federal was accepted Jan 28 and I am getting the message about cannot refund before middle of month due to me claiming the EIC. Should have federal by End of February.
Hope this helps!
-
Does Wisconsin do the path act thing where u have to wait till after the 15th with credits
-
@ Amanda forf No Wisconsin does not do path act. Myself and others who claims EIC have a direct deposit date already. Please read down several people do.
-
My very small federal refund came and went. Now I want my state and cant get an update.
-
filed: 01/22 accepted 1/28 still showing processing 8-12 week message. Still no DDD…..😒
-
Did everyone that filed Homestead credit get this generic message or is there something else I need to do?? I filed with taxact
We have no record of receiving your Homestead Credit supporting documents for your electronically filed return. If you have provided this information, allow four weeks for review of your documents. If you have not provided these documents, mail them to the address on the W-RA form or electronically scan and submit the following
-
I filed homestead and got my money this morning. You have to attach or send in your signed rent certificate with w-ra form. Ask taxact what to do.
-
Called and spoke with a gentleman from WI revenue. He confirmed exactly what I thought. I am (once again) being “pulled for review”
He is sending the letter with the absolute RIDICULOUS list of stuff I need to send in to get my refund. Last year I filed Jan. 21st and didn’t get the letter for at least 6-8 weeks then had a super short amount of time to send everything in. I’m talking original, certified birth certificates, hospital records, school records, lease, among about 15 other things they required.
SUCH A JOKE. I have NEVER had any issues with federal or state EVER, for WI to do this AGAIN is absolutely asinine. They know a lot of people will not be able do it at all or on time and end up just forfeiting their money which I’m SURE they are counting on.
We are moving out of this nasty ass state this year and I CANNOT wait!!
I have the standard 8-12 week message, so if you do too, beware. -
Filed on the 29th, accepted on the 30th and DDD was set for the 8th. It is pending in my account now and will be available tomorrow.
-
I still have the 8-12 weeks. Called and they said there is nothing showing I have any letters sent out or that I am under any review. Just still waiting.
-
@Jennifer – I’m in the same circumstance. I filed on the 25th of January and then it was accepted on the 28th of January and I have the 8-12 weeks. I’m frustrated. I wanted to call them but I don’t see a number. So I was just curious when did you file and when were you accepted? Last year I received my dd on the 10th and had that same message. Could really use this money right now…ugh!
-
Does anyone know when the Wisconsin “Where’s My Refund” site updates? Is it throughout the day or just once per day? I feel like I’m checking every hour in hopes that I get off the 8-12 weeks. I want my deposit date already! Nothing changes from year to year, never had a problem. I was accepted on 1/29 and still show the 8-12 weeks. Frustrating!
-
We had the same issue last year 😑 Filed early and people who filed after us got theirs before us. We didn’t end up getting our refund until March 5th. This year so far isn’t looking any better. Still has the 8-12 weeks message, but it’s still early in the game so hoping that is why
-
Last year I was accepted on January 29 and I didn’t get my state refund until March 15. I never received any letters and nothing was adjusted on my return. It was just a slow process. I do not think that the state processes returns over the weekend, but I am not positive on that. This year, I filed on February 1 and I am still at the 8-12 weeks stage.
-
We filed on Jan 26th, accepted on Jan 28th and we are still waiting for ddd. Hoping we aren’t getting reviewed but staying positive and hopeful! They will start coming in for us guys!! Hang in there :)
-
I filed on January 18th, was accepted on the 28th and today, finally got a ddd for 2/10.
-
@milly please pray for the rest of us!!! Hope we get our dates soon!!
-
@ruby, I filed on January 19th, was accepted on the 28th. Just wanted to give everyone a little hope that at least it may come soon. The woman I talked too told me no letters had been sent to me and usually if they are reviewing you or checking identity, they will send you a letter. Keeping my fingers crossed for you and all the rest of us.
-
Filed & supposedly accepted 1/29. WI showed accepted halfway through 1/30. 2/1 early morning it updated to ddd of 2/8, which is about how quick it processed last year for me. As of right now its pending in my bank and will deposit when my bank opens.
Fed was only 1 day behind on processing for me as well, updated to PATH 2/2. I have the EIC so waiting for 15th for ddd for that.
-
Wisconsin processing yesterday checked this morning and said complete and a ddd by the 13th finally thank god.
-
Those of you that have the processing 8-13 weeks message, do you have the video underneath saying why had my refund been delayed also? Or is that just me??
-
Yes Candice I had the video underneath the message – but, I still got my return in less than a week.
-
Thank you Lynnette!
-
Still the 8-12 weeks message. So frustrating! Filed on 1/28, it was accepted on 1/29.
-
Woke up to DD of 2/13 as well. Filed early, accepted opening day.
-
Sill the 8-12 week message. again filed 1/19. accepted 1/29… C’mon and show us early filers some love
-
@Amanda – I so agree with you. Accepted on 1/29 and I still have the 8-12 week message. :(
-
Hello people around January 29-31 2019 the WI IRS was closed some days in due to weather so their office might have a delay in sending out refunds.
-
It’s kind of frustrating, WI has always been really quick for me but not this year. Mostly just need go breathe and remember it will come when it comes 😂. But I still wake up every morning disappointed.
-
I understand the WI IRS was closed the 29th – 31st, but I still think that they should give refunds in the order in which people file. But who am I? Just a gal wanting her refund. :)
-
Wi Irs was not closed the 29th-31st. I filed on 1/28, accepted 1/29, ddd date given on 1/31.
-
They were closed the 28th, open on the 29th and then closed on the 30th & 31st all due to weather.
-
Even if they did close which I’m pretty sure they did. Why are people who were accepted after the 28th getting their dates??? And not the people who were accepted on the 28th??
-
I filed 2/4/19 and as of today, 2/6/19 received direct deposit date of 2/13/19. WOAH that was fast! Let’s see what day they actually deposit on?
-
To people that filed and already have DD date. Did you file with a tax professional or on your own?
-
I filed the same day as a couple of my coworkers. We all used Tax Act and filed on the 28th. We were all accepted on the 29th and one coworker has her money already, the other one just got a dd date yesterday and I’m still waiting on a dd date. I still have the generic 8-12 week message so I’m getting frustrated. I guess what’s frustrating is that even if they were closed, they should process people in the order in which they were received. I’m seeing people that filed in February and they already have a dd date. It’s frustrating.
-
I was accepted on the 30th. Had the generic message of 8 to 10 weeks. Just updated this morning to DDD of the 13th. I know it sucks waiting but it is coming. I hope everyone gets theirs soon.
-
I pray that tonight the system will update and all of us accepted on the 28th,29th,30th, and 31st and get a direct deposit date!!!! (Hopfully before the 15th lol)
-
@Me I’m praying as well. :)
-
Filed & Accepted 2/2 TT
Updated 2/6 with ddd 2/13 -
In a previous posting I complained about HR Block not being able to efile with WI on the 28th. So I kept trying and finally got HRBlock to go through Saturday morning, 2/2. Got an update this morning that a portion will be intercepted and the remaining dd on 2/11. Phew! I take back those nasty things I said about HRBlock…..kind of!
-
I’m ready to give up and let it surprise me. I was accepted on the 28th. Still no ddd. I’ll get it in November lol.
-
I give up too! 5:57 am and still have the 8-12 week message! I want to scream! Filed on the 29th and accepted on the 30th.
-
Been waiting since the 28th. Finally this morning got the approved message…. date of 2/12. My sister woke up to her refund in her account and still on processing 8 to 12 weeks!!! There is hope giys
-
Is the where’s my refund page only updated in the morning or are there updates throughout the day?
-
I filed on 1/22, got the text that federal was accepted right away, then on 1/28 got the text that state was accepted, still showing processing 8-12 weeks message, filed with turbo tax, very frustrating!
-
I’m in the same situation. Filed on 1/28 using TaxAct (didn’t use the free version – paid the extra) and it was accepted on 1/29 and I still have the 8-12 weeks message. I have 3 dependents which is the same as previous years. It is quite frustrating.
-
Filed 2/4 state update today with EITC with ddd by 14th
-
Had a ddd of 2/9
Deposited this morning on 2/7.
It works.
-
Those of You that got DDD, did you end up getting you return before the date. I got a ddd of 2-13 but I think last year I got a couple days prior to that.
-
I have had a deposit date and got it 3 days earlier. How after do they update wmr
-
@ MOE yes my DDD was 02/08 and I received it on 02/06
-
Any turbo tax users get their Wisconsin refund back? I filed on the 19th of January… Accepted the first day possible on 1/28 and still says 8-12 weeks.
-
Filed 2/3 accepted same day.. processing by Monday 2/4 and under all the orange bars it asked for verification of income and rent certificate for homestead .. sent that through the wr-a link. Now just waiting. Patiently waiting too for update !! This happen to me last year .. I been wrking the same job for 8 1/2 years and nothing has changed and been living in the same apartment for 7 years ..
-
@Randy, that is the same for me. I filed with turbo tax on the 1/22. Wi state was accepted 1/28 and still getting the 8-12 week message, so frustrating!
-
People keep asking the same question over and over, the tracker will say 8 to 12 weeks in the orange bar and normally within a day or two it will show a direct deposit date. Some have had it deposited sooner than the given date, some have received it after the date and may depend on your bank or credit union accepting the return.
I filed my federal and state with HR Block for free online, have used TurboTax for the last 3 years after seeing my total cost before submitting I checked HR and was free and came to the exact same refund amount. HR did have a system issue not being to submit Wisconsin refunds on the states opening efile date. Federal went in quick, took 3 days to submit my state but waiting 3 days was a better option than spending nearly 100 for the same service elsewhere.
I REPEAT DONT WORRY OVER THE 8 TO 12 IT WILL BE MUCH FASTER AND WILL UPDATE ONLINE FOR YOU IN A DAY OR TWO.
-
@Mike – I understand people may keep asking the same question, but not everyone that has the 8-12 orange bar resolves in a day or two. I have had the bar for 7 days now and from reading other people on this forum, they have had it longer than 1-2 days so I think that’s where the concern is. I would be extremely happy if I only had the orange bar for that short of a time period. Like I said, tomorrow will be day 8 so it’s a little frustrating to say the least.
-
Filed 1/31 through wi dor website, accepted same day. Been on 8-12 week message since 2/1, no DDD. Getting so frustrated. People I know who filed after me either have DDD or received theirs already.
-
Filed the 28th, accepted the 29th. Still at 8-12 week message. Last year it took them 6 weeks to issue my refund. These last 2 years have been slower than normal.
-
Those of you still on 8-12 weeks. Do you have the EIC??
-
No, no EIC
-
Did my taxes on Sunday followed by my fiancé’s. Mine says 8-12 weeks, his are all accepted with a date of 2/13. Irritated right now. I’m hoping nothing got flagged and will be held
-
For everyone asking about eic and actc. I have both mine were filed 2/1 and i got a ddd of the 13tj. The path doed not apply to state. Maybe some of yours are taking longer time to review. Call to the hotline they will tell you whats going on. My fingers crossed for all.
-
I do have the EIC
-
My WI state return was accepted on 01/29, but my status hasn’t changed since last week. Others have gotten refunds deposited today and were accepted on the same date.
-
UPDATE:
Received Identity Verification Pin in mail today!
Filed: 01/22 Accepted: 01/28 Still no DDD -
Did anyoneelse get a DDD for 2/12?
-
I filed 2/1; I cannot remember when WI accepted it. However, I checked the “Where’s my Refund” for the state on the 5th, and my refund was approved and being sent to my account. I haven’t checked my account yet, but it’s supposed to be no later than the 10th.
I filed online with TurboTax and have the EIC (also the child tax credit/ACTC).
I’ve honestly never had a state refund move so fast. Previous states I lived in took their sweet time.
-
I filed 1/28 accepted the same day. I checked my refund status said 8-12 weeks. Recieved a letter 2/6 stating my earned income credit is under review. I’ve had the same info for the last 7 years , 3 dependents. I had to turn in my w2 , birth certificates, social security cards, school verification for my children ,also my last 4 check stubs and information from my landlord. I turned in all requested information in person, and was told up to 12 weeks to complete my review.
-
DDD for 01/15 finally! I hope anyone else out there that doesn’t have it yet soon will! 😄
-
Just checked this morning and I still have the 8-12 weeks orange bar. I filed on 1/28 and it was accepted on 1/29, I have not received any communication from IRS that I need to submit additional information.
-
Accepted on the 28th still no update. No credits or anything it’s less than 500 why is it taking so long. Ugh!!!
-
Ugh still nothing! Still showing 8-12 weeks! Have not received anything from the IRS either.
-
It seems like those of us who filed early are the ones being jerked around!
-
Update: Filed 2/4, DDD date of 2/13 and today, 2/8/19 it’s “Pending” in my bank account. Not sure when it will be released to me but it’s in there!
-
Filed 31st, accepted same day…still sitting on 8-12 week message. what the heck…
-
Just checked my informed delivery and I have a letter from WI department of Revenue. This sucks. My return has been the same for 4 years. We have such a short return. Hopefully this is a short process…
Filed 1/28, still on 8-12 week message.
-
Filed with TurboTax on 01/27
Accepted 01/28
Received a DDD of 02/15 today!
My federal has EIC and Child tax credit. -
When u were processing I know everyone gets that 8 12 week message with video but under that does it say we are committed to protecting your identity thing also
-
Yes mine has that under the video
-
@me
Ok I was trying figure out if that means I will have to ID verify. When did u file
-
I filed on 1/22 through turbo tax federal was accepted right away but not processing until mid February since I have the additional child tax credit then I got the text on 1/28 that my state was accepted and has been showing the orange bar 8-12 weeks since 🤦🏼♀️ No letter or anything from the depart of revenue so I don’t know what the hold up is.
-
@me
This is first time used TurboTax wondering if that has something to do with it -
I have filed every year with turbo tax and have never had an issue like this 🤷🏼♀️
-
@me
When I checked yesterday I don’t remember seeing thsting spill about identity..😔 do u know how often they update and if they update on weekends -
@Aimee 2/15 is ur date for federal or state?
-
Filed 1/21
Accepted 1/28
Received identity PIN 2/7: verified online
2/8 Approved & received DDD of 2/13Turbotax
-
So the letter was an ID verification pin. It was an easy process to use the online system. Hoping its quick and easy from here.
-
Any updates on anyone with a 2/12 direct deposit date?
-
I filed 1/17, my state was accepted on 1/28… still no DDD
-
Filed 1/23 TurboTax accepted 1/28. Just got DDD of 2/14 as of tonight
-
Amanda my file and accept date is the same as yours. Your giving me hope but I’m too scared to check 😩
-
Wisconsin state refund. Accepted 1/28 DDD 2/16.
Just found out this morning this info. -
I should have known. No update for me ugh
-
Still on the 8-12 week. Ugh!
-
DDD of 2/13, went into my account this morning. Filed TT the 10th, accepted opening day and approved the 7th. Have both credits. Fees taken out of return. Money went on my PayPal debit card.
-
Ddd of by 2/16! I hope everyone waiting gets their pins and it goes quick!
-
My state had an of it has been intercepted. I got my date of 2/12 on 2/7, called today 2/9 and the bill has still not been paid. Last year I got my date of 2/12 on 2/7, my offset was pai on 2/8 and money was in my netspend on 2/9….. wtf is going on…. :(
-
filed 1/19. accepted 1/28. No dang update for me. Uggh do they update on the weekend?
-
Still no DDD…😩😩😩
-
Does anyone know if it takes longer to get ur state refund when you have an offset? I feel like last year it went really fast with an offset
-
Does anyone know if the update on the weekend. Seems like some people on this forum received updates at midnight which technically was Saturday. Ugh! I was accepted 1/28 and still no DD date. 😭😭😭🤷🏽♀️🤷🏽♀️
-
I used turbo tax. I have EIC and child tax credits. I filed both state and federal on February 6, 2019. Federal was accepted right away state took about 12 hours. My federal now says it’s pending till mid February because of the EIC and child tax credits. My state has a DDD of 2/15/19.
-
It is beyond frustrating that people who filed a week after me have a ddd already.
-
Still no update for me. I filed 1/22 with turbo tax. Federal accepted right away but not processing until mid February due to child credit, state was accepted 1/28 and still showing the 8-12 week message with no letter from wi department of Revenue 😡 so annoyed!!!
-
I filed the 25th accepted the 28th and people around me have already gotten theirs Im waiting still just as some of you are. No letters or anything. My bf was accepted on the 5th he gets his dd on the 13th. Pain in the butt last year I had same thing state came a day after fed on the 23rd of Feb.. Feeling pretty pissed off UGH!!
-
@ness and @me…. I know of more than 5 people who got their deposits in their account without their status updating
-
I have checked my account and nothing
-
I agree this is getting very frustrating. I filed early and was accepted on 1/28, the first day they could really “accept” returns and I have the 8-12 week message ever since the 29th.
-
@Sandy
2/15 is for my stare my federal still says processing. -
Had my date for 2/12 , deposited to netspend tonight at 8pm central standard time
-
It looks like all of us that were accepted on 28th during the snow storm got screwed. I hope nothing happened. This very very frustrating
-
Had ddd of the 13th. Woke up to deposit today .. Goood luck everyone
-
Still nothing for me, I called the department of Revenue on Friday and she told me they had my taxes but it was still in the processing stage and didn’t know why 🤦🏼♀️
-
WI state DDD 2/14 DD this morning with pre paid card
-
Anybody accepted on 5th had any movement?
-
I was accepted on 1/28 lol and no movement
-
@ me
Have u called them? -
Yes, I called Friday all they said was it was still processing. I haven’t gotten any letters from them either so she said she didn’t know what was taking so long
-
Got my letter in the mail today. I was pulled for review.
The list of stuff they want is CRAZY. Ugh. I hope y’all have better luck than me! 😭 -
There’s hope people. Got accepted on 1/28/19 and now I have a DDD of 2/16 for WI state. Finally. Also make sure u check the status on Saturday mornings because it does have updated info from Friday.
-
@Jessie
When did u file -
I called and they just said hasn’t finished processing
-
Does anyone know if the system updates exactly at midnight and that’s it or????
-
I filed 1/23 accepted 1/28. Recieved my letter for review today.
-
Does anyone know for fed with Eic if you have the path act message does that mean you wont get reviewed also filed and accepted 2/1 and still have 8 to 12 week message filed with turbo tax direct deposit
-
@Kathe – No, it does not mean that you won’t get reviewed. My friend who is a single father had received his federal refund last year and then he was still waiting on his state and then he received a letter from Wisconsin asking for copies of the birth certificates, proof they were enrolled in school, a statement from his landlord – it was honestly ridiculous what the State of Wisconsin was asking for.
-
@Georgia I mean will my federal get reviewed. Not my state my state has got reviewed every year for the last 5 years for some reason
-
@Kathe – You should be fine with federal.
-
Did anyone with chase get their 2/13 posted to their account yet?
-
Was accepted on 2/4 with a DDD of 2/11 and haven’t received anything. Turbotax with their prepaid card.
-
@aawaiting my bf has the same card he was suppose to get his the 13th and it is on his turbotax card as of this morning..
-
@Ness Maybe I’m looking at the wrong DDD? Where exactly is that located?
-
Where are you finding the state DDD? I want to clarify I am looking at the right thing.
-
I don’t get it. Isn’t the DDD the direct deposit date? It tells you when you input your social and amount of your refund. In my case I have the 8-12 week message so there is no DDD yet. 😭
-
Does the wisconsin wmr only update over night?
-
@aawaiting when I look at my moms this is what it says: Your return has been processed and your refund should be direct deposited into the account provided on your tax return by 02/07/2019.
-
This is so frustrating. Still no update
-
Looks like we all getting our federals before our state 😂😂😂
-
Still no update 😢😔
-
Still no update. 😭😭😭
-
Still no update for me either. So frustrating!! 🤷🏽♀️🙄😢🤬
-
I filed and was accepted 1/30. I finally woke up to a direct deposit by 2/17. I did call yesterday and asked them what was going on because I always received my state within 10 days. She said everything looked good and it was still processing. So idk if calling made a difference but I finally got movement overnight.
-
Filed and accepted on the 4th of February. Received the direct deposit confirmation for the 17th of February.
-
Still nothing for me 😡
-
I filed on 1/22 state was accepted on 1/28 the day tax season opened and I’m still getting the 8-12 week message I called last week and she said it was just still processing also no letters either so I don’t know what’s going on but seriously ridiculous
-
@me I’m in the same boat. It was accepted on 1/28 and I’ve been on the 8-12 week message forever. I haven’t received any letters from the state. So very frustrating. Seems like those that filed during that winter storm are getting screwed!
-
For those of you that called and spoke to someone what number did you call?
-
I agree something isn’t right! I just called and opted one of the options for tax refunds and directed me to someone who was not helpful 🙄
-
My state finally updated last night filed 1/31. Had to wait for part year resident form cuz i moved to colorado last may. Accepted 2/1 and says dd by 2/17. Federal hasn’t been processed yet.
-
Update: filed 2/2 excepted couple hours later Then couple days 2/4 I had proscessing 8/12 weeks at the bottom it said I had to send income verification and rent certificate which was on 4th. Finally that info has been removed this morning and my status is back to 8/12 weeks . They must have received my documents and hopefully I get a DDD soon.
-
Just outrageous that they haven’t given a DDD in 2 weeks when they tell you to wait 8-12
-
Now on day 14 since acceptance, still on 8-12 weeks. This is getting old. Seriously sucks that people that filed a week after me are getting DDD. What number can I call to find out more info?
-
Filed 1/19. accepted 1/28. 8-12 week message called again today and was told no letters have been sent. Just processing… Then he said maybe it’s because I have EIC?!? C’MON I need this now
-
Same exact scenario for me @Amanda! It’s frustrating! No letters or anything seriously ridiculous seeing people who filed after me already have their money or have a DDD.
-
This is crazy my daughter filed and accepted on 2/7 got her deposit already
-
Accepted 1/28, still have 8-12 weeks. I called and basically they could tell me nothing that it’s still processing. I was on hold for a LOOOONG time so save your time and don’t call. They will not tell you anything other than what shows on the WHERE’S MY REFUND website.
-
I have a DDD of 2/16 which is saturday i believe. ( no direct deposit on weekends) Does that mean ill get it before that or i will have to wait till next tiesday since monday is a holiday
-
@Orlando it seems like most people are getting their deposit a day earlier or more. Congrats on getting a dd date. Praying for mine.
-
So, I still have no DDD for my WI State or Federal. I filed the 11th, got accepted the 14th for federal and Accepted the 28th for State. I called last week to see if any letters were issued and was told no, the man said I have a pretty standard return and just to hold tight. Well, here we are and NOTHING. Generic 8-12 week message and Path Act message. It’s never taken so long to get my State ever. I feel everyone’s frustration.
-
Mine did was set for 2/16 but came into my chime account around 10pm. Good luck everybody.
-
Filed and accepted 1/31
Just updated with a DDD of 2/21 -
Finally have a DDD of 2/21! Hoping everyone else gets their DDD soon!
-
Mine says “Return Completed” but no deposit date. What does that mean??
-
Still nothing for me 😡😒
-
Ugh no update here!! C’mon there is no way my return is that complicated!! ALSO, I’d like a reason people who filed way after me are getting dates. This is getting ridiculous!!
-
Still nothing
-
My return isn’t complicated either it’s seriously ridiculous
-
Still nothing for me. 🤬
-
No movement for me either.
-
Just a heads up, if you are still waiting on a DDD and filed awhile ago, you may want to call and see what the hold up is. Last year I didn’t call and just waited, I FINALLY got my review letter towards the middle of March and had no time to do what was needed.
This year I called and even tho they said I had no letter coming, they couldn’t see ANYTHING wrong, I got the review letter 2 days later. Generated the day BEFORE I called. Now I have ample time to get together the necessary documents I need to send in. -
I filed on 2/2 due to HR Block’s issues. I received a request in the mail on 2/9 for copies of my w-2, 1099-r, and my gambling winnings document. Sent them electronically 2/10. As of 1 hour ago(2/13) I now have a DDD of 2/21.
-
@JessieJ – Thank you for the info. Just curious, what are they asking for in their letter?
-
8:34 am – Just called the Wisconsin Department of Revenue main number. A woman answered and I started off by apologizing for the call and just said with the recent snow storm, my mailbox was knocked down and I was afraid that if the DOR sent me a letter, that I didn’t receive it. This is true about the mailbox (she doesn’t have to know it was only down for 1 day and I have informed delivery and nothing showed from WI DOR, lol) so again – I’m sorry for the call as I’m sure you’re being flooded with calls at this time, etc. Her tone of HELLO when she first answered the phone was not rude but like ugh here’s another call. I can only assume it’s tiring answering calls especially since the WHERE’S MY REFUND site says that it’s the same information that an agent would provide. After I apologized and told her about the mailbox she was overly nice and empathized with me worrying about a possible letter. She took her time and asked my ss #, name and address and then said that everything looked good on her end and no letters have been sent to me at all and some refunds are just taking longer for the system to process. She apologized and that was it.
So again good news but I have heard of a few people calling and they say no letter and then all of a sudden they receive a letter so we’ll see. I think the WHERE’S MY REFUND site is great, but I think if they could update it with “At this time, no letter has been sent to you” or “A letter has been sent to you regarding _______” This way we would at least know if a letter was generated from us.
Good luck to all of us waiting for our refund. It can and has been frustrating especially when people that filed after us have received their refunds already. I don’t depend on the money BUT it would be very helpful right now as I’m going through some things. Also, wanted to say that I’ve enjoyed reading the posts on this site – it is a great forum. I’ll post more if I hear anything else.
-
When I called that exactly what they told me too, that it was still processing and that everything looked fine and that it wasn’t showing any letters has been sent….. I agree I wish the site didn’t give such a generic response.
-
Just found out from a friend (that filed 6 days after me) that she called this morning and was told that a letter was mailed out to her about fraud and asking her to confirm her identify. So I’m hoping that since the lady told me no letters have been mailed to me that I get a DDD soon.
-
Last year I got my letter from the neighbor a few houses down. Hated that mailman.
-
Filed and accepted the 28. No movement until yesterday, now completed with direct deposit date on or before 02/17. Hoping that means Friday as the 17th is Sunday and the 18th is Presidents Day (no mail or banking).
Took a little longer than in previous years but 20 days is really a good turnaround! (Imo)
-
I filed on February 1 and updated this morning to DDD of 2/21/2019. I have always received my DD early. How many days early does Wisconsin Deposit?
-
@Danielle1526 It just depends. My friend received hers on the date that they gave her and some people on this forum have received it 1-3 days earlier. I don’t know why, but that’s what I’ve been seeing.
-
@georgia
Original certified birth certificates
Copies of ss cards
Statement from clinic or school covering entire year for each child
Statement from landlord with copies of cancelled check it money order receipt for everything you paid for rent in 2018
Or if you own your home all property tax info
Fill out additional paper they send you
Copies of any Cory docs in regards to placement of children, divorce decree, etcJust A HUGE amount of info to gather. A little overwhelming but I need my damn money!!
-
Accepted the 28th still nothing. Very easy return barely getting a refund. Another reason I hate this state it’ just can’t do anything right!!! If I get a letter I’m not doing all that crap they can keep the 300. Ugh!!
-
Still nothing for me.
-
Mine says “return completed” but no ddd. It was accepted the 28th. Anyone else have this?
-
Still nothing for me 😡🤦🏼♀️
-
Still nothing…😩
-
@Ian – are you checking it on a desktop computer or laptop? The reason I ask is that I’ve never heard the return being completed and no dd date. My friend looked on it with her smart phone and I don’t know what phone she has but it did appear like it was completed since the words were so close together, but when she looked on it with her laptop it was clear that it was not completed. I do believe that once your return is marked as completed then a dd date would be there.
Another thing I’m thinking is maybe the return is completed but they are sending you a letter and that’s why you don’t have a dd date? Just a thought. Hoping it’s not that.
-
Called yesterday, they said return is still processing and they don’t show any letter being mailed to me. “It’s just taking awhile” she said.
Accepted on 1/28, 8-12 week message, Monday will be 3 weeks. ugh!
-
Same thing that was told to me @Sammy. Mine was also accepted 1/28
-
Another heads up! Lol
Called my children’s school to request the info that the state is requesting and she said she’s had to do a bunch of these already!! We’re in a pretty small school so that’s saying allot of people are getting review letters! -
After submitting the documents that were requested for the review of my refund on 2/7 , I received a ddd of 2/17 on 2/9. So the turn around time for my review was really fast received dd 2/13 in my Educators Credit Union.
-
@Sammy and Me:
Same situation here. 1/19. accepted 1/28. Still generic 8-12 week message. Really wish this would hurry up. Not hating on those who have gotten it already, but… Why are people after us getting it?!?!
-
Accepted 1/15 still the same 8-12 weeks message, sadface.
-
Filed 2/9 accepted same day. WMR just updated to return complete, check should be to me by the 20th of February.
-
Checked my refund status I have a DDD of NEVER
-
Probably get federal before state wtf
-
FINALLY!!! Thank you Jesus!!! Accepted 1/28 and at midnight I just received a DD date of 2/23!!! So thrilled you have no idea. Good luck to all of you still waiting.
-
Accepted 1/28. Just checked 12:04 am and I have a dad date of 1/24!
-
Just checked 12:22am and still the 8-12 week message. Filed 1/19. accepted 1/28… This is getting old quickly
-
@ruby I think you meant your DD date is 2/24. Lol! I too have a DD date of 2/24. Just checked at 12:30 am. Good luck to the rest. All I can say is that I called 2 days ago and I would advise you do the same!
-
I have called TWICE!!. I just keep getting they are still processing. Some take longer than others… blah blah blah.
-
@Amanda it’s ridiculous I know. There was a lot of people that filed after us and received their deposit already. The Wisconsin website needs to provide more detailed information as to the status of our returns. I know I shouldn’t rely on this money but I’m barely making it right now and I really need that money so I was checking all the time. I don’t know what to tell you but I pray you get a DD date soon.
-
@Amanda – saw that you filed 1/19 and I filed 1/18 so hopefully you get a date tonight. I’ll be checking the forum. (Fingers crossed)
-
Congrats on the DDD!!
Thats the main reason I’m ticked. It should go in the order they were filed. I’m sorry but it’s bs that people after us got their money already, in my opinion.
Congrats again and I’ll keep ya posted
-
Nothing here still 😡😡😡😡 so annoying and absolutely ridiculous! I have called twice and no letters have been sent. Filed 1/22 accepted 1/28.
-
What numbers do you all call to speak to someone. I was accepted the 28th. I want to check
-
My DDD of 2/21 is now in at my credit union as a pending transaction to be deposited on 2/19. If I had been smart enough to also get my state put on my prepaid card, I would have had the money today. :(
But, at last I know it’s there and I’ll have it by Tuesday!
-
Still nothing. This is frustrating
-
was accept on 2/4/19 says still processing….ugh
-
While I sm happy for everyone that has filed and received or gotten a ddd, it is frustrating when I was accepted on the 29th and still have nothing. And when you call it’s still being processed and no issues. How can returns accepted 10 days after mine already have ddd, I am so frustrated.
-
Filed the 21st accepted the 28th still have not recieved a DDD. Finally gave in and called this morning. Was told it was being held up but wants t sure why. No letters have been issued or anything. Just got I’m not sure what’s going on with it but you should receive it in 3-12 weeks from being accepted.
It’s frustrating to see people who have filed after the 28th getting their deposits already. -
@Angela
Same boat as you. Accepted the 28th filed the 26th. Call for them to tell me no letters no problems just taking longer. Never have had this issue before and hope to never have it again. -
Filed 2/2 and accepted same day .. after waiting forever and sending income verification and rent certificate finally
Woke up today with a DD 2/23🙌🏼🙌🏼 -
My DD date was today (2/15). I checked my account and nothing. So I checked the where’s my state refund website again, and it no longer tells me a date and it’s gone back to saying 8-12 weeks…ummm… what!?!
-
What number are you calling is it a Madison number?
-
Yes the Madison number
-
So I filed and my state was accepted on 2/2 (would have been filed a few days earlier but H&R Block had an issue with filing Wisconsin State returns. I just checked again today and it’s still saying 8 to 12 weeks. I’ve called twice to make sure that nothing was intercepted and the second time the lady said that it looks like no letters were sent out and everything looks good and I should get it soon. I’m just getting so frustrated that it’s been a while now and I still have not received any update. My sister-in-law filed on the 31st and she got her money deposit in her account on the 8th…literally filed, accepted, and deposited within a freaking week! Wtf…. So ridiculous! Why are some ppl getting their shit within a week while others are waiting numerous weeks without even receiving any update or DDD? I’m so freaking annoyed. I need this money and I’ve been waiting a while now and am starting to lose hope! 😭😱😩
-
This is getting real aggravating. My friend filed on the 9th and already has a DDD..
-
No update for me either, I filed on 1/22 and was accepted right away on 1/28. I’ve called twice and no letters have been sent I was told it was just taking longer to process. Ridiculous
-
Accepted 1/28, still sitting on 8-12 weeks. Did this to me last year too. Watching people who got letters to send things in and still get a date before me, is crazy. I’m waiting till i hit 21 days and then calling. I have no idea why so many other people get it so fast but I wish I knew what they were doing lol
-
filed 1/19. accepted 1/28. Still no dang update. As frustrated as the rest. called twice just told taking longer to process.
-
Filed accepted 1/28 still waiting. Looks like a lot of people that filed on the 28th are getting screwed.
-
Filed/accepted 2/7. Submitted electronic documents required on 2/9 for Homestead Credit. WMR has said 8-12 weeks until this morning, now there’s a DDD 2/24.
-
Filed on 1/28 accepted 1/29. Sitting on 8-12 weeks. It just says if we requested additional information please allow 8 weeks to process. But I still havent received a letter. The number i called doesnt verify if i was a sent a letter or not.
-
Filed on 1/28 accepted 1/29. Sitting on 8-12 weeks. It just says if we requested additional information please allow 8 weeks to process. But I still havent received a letter. The number i called doesnt verify if i was a sent a letter or not. No
-
I have a pending deposit for my account that is very different from the amount I thought I was getting. I dont owe anything and I havent received anything saying a reason. When or how will I find out what happened?
-
Filed on 02/02 and got accepted same day. Within the last week I got a DDD of 02/17. I have the emerald card through h&r block.. It’s 02/17 and my refunds not there. :( I checked the WMR and the DDD still says on or before the 17th..
-
Still no update for me. Filed TT on 1/22 accepted on 1/28 and still have the 8-12 weeks message with no letters sent. I’ve called twice and have been told everything looks good and just taking longer to process…. ugh so frustrating!!!!!!!!
-
Update: Filed on 2/2 and still says 8-12 weeks. Hopefully it will update with a ddd at midnight tonight since its the weekend. For those that received a ddd or already got their refund who filed after, I’m happy for…it just doesn’t make any logical sense for ppl who filed after others to receive a ddd…I don’t get it. It should be in order one would think, right?
-
Brittany, your money will most likely be deposited by midnight or tomorrow at the latest since it’s the weekend. Either way, you’ll have it within 24 hours!
-
I filed on 1/29 accepted the same day and I have been on processing 8-12 weeks since. So I am hoping for an update soon.
-
Still waiting here as well. Filed 1/19. Accepted 1/28. stupid generic 8-12 week message. Have also called twice. I was told that it’s just taking awhile to process. I agree that it’s ridiculous that people who filed way after me already have DDD and/or their money. Tuesday will be 3 weeks and I think I’m going to call again. My dang return isn’t that complicated and nothing has changed!
-
I just checked…still nothing.
-
Amanda,
I feel ya! Mine is not that complicated either. I don’t get what the holdup is. Like wtf!!! Hopefully we’ll get ours this week….(we better!) 😁
-
3 weeks today and nothing State is playing games will have fed Friday but here waiting for an update from state… 🤬
-
Nothing again….omfg. 😩😡
-
Still nothing for me 😡😡😡 absolutely ridiculous
-
@Amanda – I cannot believe you don’t have a date yet. SO RIDICULOUS!!!!
-
This is absolutely ridiculousz I filed mines on the 28 and nothing yet. Like I’m really irate about this 🙄😡
-
-
Accepted 1/28, still nothing.
-
@Amanda,
Unfortunately your right. It seems that they’re in NO rush to push our shit through. If I wake up tomorrow and the status is still the same, I’m literally going to be enraged! 😠😤 As I’m sure everyone else will too. -
I’m so annoyed, I got accepted 1/15 and still the same stupid 8-12 week message
-
Just checked at 12:10am and STILL NOTHING….NO NEW STATUS…WTF. THIS IS SO PATHETIC!!!!😠
-
Still nothing accepted 1/28
-
Nothing here 😡😡😡
-
This is ridiculous. Still nothing.
-
The Wisconsin DOR refund website gets updated only at midnight right?
-
Yes, @Alisha. Once every 24 hours
-
The way in which you filed seems to be affecting how long it takes. Those filing directly on the state’s website seems to be getting refunds quicker than those filing through an online service (like TurboTax or H&R Block)
-
Not necessarily, my cousin filed with turbo tax after me and she has already gotten her state refund back
-
From what they told me, the WI website does only update once. The federal website updates more than once per day (2 times per day but they have longer time frames to update). I was also told from someone that works at DOR that yesterday they did work on President’s day but they did not work on processing actual refunds – they worked on reviewing and verifying refunds and there would be an update tonight. Frustrating I know. Also, I saw on another site, someone had a friend who is a programmer for the IRS and it does not matter what platform you used to file your taxes. So if you used the WI website or H&R Block, that doesn’t mean you would get your taxes first. It’s based on a computer program that randomly selects. So, take this for what it’s worth but that’s what I found out.
Hoping you all get your refund soon. I would think there would be a massive update tonight. I was accepted on 1/28 and I believe Saturday night (midnight) I received my DD date. Yesterday would have been 3 weeks.
Also, I know this is form FEDERAL but could also be for State. If your return says STILL PROCESSING then there is something wrong and a letter is being sent to you. If it says PROCESSING then you are ok and you are just waiting on a date. Again I know this is true with federal, maybe not with State but if you have a message that says STILL PROCESSING then that could be why. (Fingers crossed everyone).

I saw that federal is not sending refunds for those with EIC or the ACTC credits until February 27th. Also, I filed 1/22 with turbo tax federal was accepted right away my state was accepted 1/28 when tax season officially opened, my state is still showing the 8-12 week message and I have called twice and they said no letters have been sent and everything is fine just that it’s taking longer to process for some reason, my federal says processing I have both of those credits so I’m not expecting federal until next week, but my State is really frustrating me, I usually have state back within a few days every year, but this year is the longest I have ever had to wait, really annoying!
-
What number do you call to talk to someone
-
@me
I have always had my state back in 7 days or less. This is weird. Fed I get but not really understanding state this year
-
The first round of federal refunds for people that filed with EIC was 2/22. My friend filed and was accepted before me and she was in that first batch to get her refund 2/22. They are saying the next batch would be 2/27 but we’ll see.
WI DOR numbers:
(608) 266-8100Toll Free:
(866) 947-7363Milwaukee:
(414) 227-4907I think the above numbers had you enter your ss number and amount and then gave you the status and then hung up on you. I honestly believed I called this number – (608) 266-2772 to talk to someone. This is the number given for Audit of Returns. When I called I just basically said that I was having problems with my mail and my refund was taking longer than past years and I wanted to see if they sent me a letter to verify anything and she was able to answer my questions.
-
Yeah my friend has a dd date of 2/22 for the federal and she has the EIC and other stuff. That was the first round of dd dates.
Still hasn’t received WI…I should say neither of us have dd dates for WI. Getting ridiculous.
-
Interesting, I didn’t think federal was approving returns early due to the PATH ACT, I filed 1/22 and haven’t gotten any date for federal 🤷🏼♀️ As far as state that’s a joke 🙄
-
I Filed and was accepted for both federal and state on January 29th I have a direct deposit date for federal of the 22nd have both EIC and ECTC. I called the Wisconsin department of revenue for what seems like the 100th time no letters have been sent out still processing don’t understand why they’re not processed in the order they’re accepted especially if the individuals who’ve already received it have the same type of credits this is the longest it’s ever taken me for state
-
@Sammy
Thank you for all that information you posted for everyone. That helped clarify a lot! I appreciate it! 😃 -
Nothing yet… uggh. There is no excuse for this… Uggh pretty easy return. NOTHING new or anything like that. Hope there is a major update tonight
-
I called and she said some are taking longer to verify. I told her same job same kids same address the last 8year’s. She said its just how the system works ugh.😞😣
-
Ughhhh my fed is pending in my account but still no info on my state. I swear the past few years state has been real sucky!!!!
-
Still no update here 😡🤦🏼♀️
-
Well…no surprise- still no update yet again. I’m to the point where I’m not even going to waste my time checking anymore. Clearly, the state ain’t rushing….maybe I’ll get it by the 4th of July 😠😤😩
-
No update here either…. Uggh
-
Filed 2/11 partial resident. Just checked and my return has been completed but my refund has been offset (what do I owe WI?! I only lived there 5 1/2 months!) and I will recieve the rest of my refund 2/21/19 and a letter about the offset.
-
Still no update. I’m so tired of checking and never anything
-
Filed 2/4. Accepted a couple days later. Still waiting. Hope everyone hears something soon.
-
Broke down and called today. They sent a letter 2/15, but hasn’t arrived yet :( filed and accepted 2/2
-
What a surprise no update…. :(
-
I have to be getting audited because this shit is taking forever accepted 1/28 still no updates nothing in the mail as of yet but it has to be coming. Ugh
-
Nothing….yet again. I’m calling in the morning.
-
No update here 😡 no letters nothing! Called again yesterday and was told just taking longer to process 🙄 really annoying and super frustrating! Accepted 1/28
-
So I was accepted on 1/28 and was approaching 3 weeks before I received my refund date. It was supposed to be deposited on Saturday but I woke up to my deposit being deposited today although it was around $600 less than it was supposed to be. So now I’m thinking is this why my DD date took so long. I received no letter about the tax intercept and when I called they said the agents can’t tell if the tax is being intercepted. I don’t owe child support, no back taxes so I’m confused about what happened. The only thing I can think about was that I was sued in court for a bill that was around $600. Problem is they already started garnishing my paycheck so last Friday they took $368 out of my paycheck and if tax took the entire amount then I’m due money because I’ve overpaid.
So, I just want to say even if you don’t think you owe money please give the tax intercept department a call. This has me thinking that’s why my DD date took so long. Again I received no letter (I have the program that shows me what I’m being delivered each day and nothing from IRS). Also if your husband owes (maybe it’s not you) and you file joint then they will intercept if his name was on your tax return. Same if you have a child and they owed something for juvenile court. I will be calling the tax intercept phone number today and I’ll report back.
-
I’m over it. I’m gonna stop checking the website, maybe I’ll get the damn thing before summer lmao
-
Please look at my latest post below. I called the intercept phone number for WI. I told her that I received my refund direct deposited and it was $557 less than what I expected. She said Oh, we mailed you a letter the morning of 2/21. I said, well that’s today so I wouldn’t have received that yet, lol. She was like oh yeah. I asked for the LETTER ID # so I could access the letter on the WI DOR website. I just printed my letter and it says that the WI DOR made some changes on my return.
Line 11 – We changed the WI subtraction modification for Medical Care.
Line 15 – We changed the standard deduction allowed based on your filing status and income
Line 19 – We changed your gross tax based on taxable income and filing status.So with those changes, my refund is $557 less. I’m not understanding this so I will now have to look into this. I file the same way EVERY year, have 5 dependents and it’s been correct every year so I don’t know what’s going on.
So….for those that are still waiting with no DOR date, please call DOR and see if you owe anything or if they are making changes to your tax return. The number I called was 608-266-7879. If they did mail you a letter – have them give you the LETTER ID# so you can access https://tap.revenue.wi.gov/printletter/_/
Thanks for reading.

This just might be the worst state tax filing season ever.. I filed 2/4 was accepted by Wisconsin same night via turbotax. Sent an email to the Wisconsin DOR last week asking what is going on, and received the same information everyone else is and they just said they received my return on 2/4 and it is in process, and to please allow up to 12 weeks. Unbelievable.. why can’t we have full access to where our money is 24/7? People shouldnt be left in the dark with questions on the little money we get back from Uncle Sam’s big pockets we contribute too everyday..
-
Ok here’s an update: I filed on 2/2 and it was accepted the same day. I filed through H&R Block by myself via their website. It’s almost approaching 3 weeks, actually this Saturday will be the official third week. Every day I check it’s still in the processing stage saying 8 to 12 weeks. I finally called today to see if any letters were sent out and the lady that responded said no letters were sent out and all she can see is that it’s still processing. She said they have to verify everyone and make sure everything’s correct so it can take up to 12 weeks, although she said she don’t think it will take 12 weeks. She said just keep waiting and be patient and you’ll get it soon…..Great… I kind of wanted an actual definitive answer on when I will get it but of course they can’t give you that. I usually always get it within a week-week and a half. This is been the longest wait time I’ve ever had to deal with for Wisconsin. Gosh! This is so freaking annoying. I got kids and don’t exactly make a lot of money so I’m relying on this and need it now!
-
Please see my post below. I would encourage all of you that are still waiting to call the intercept department. Again, I was in the processing stage for almost 3 weeks and I called and they would say “No letters were sent, nothing is wrong – it’s just taking awhile” Well that was incorrect because if it’s taking a while then they are verifying your information and it is a good possibility that changes are being made on your return by the IRS. So I was supposed to receive a refund on Saturday, but I received it today and it was a lot less than I was supposed to get back. I didn’t know why, called the lady they said everything is fine, no letters sent. I called INTERCEPT division at WI IRS and sure enough, they had sent me a letter this morning that they changed my tax return and it resulted in a lower refund. Only the intercept division would know this – the other departments do not know this so please call tax intercept.
-
When you checked your status on the WMR site did it say anything about an interception?
-
Called today. No letter generated. Accepted 1/28. She said they are in the process of changing the 3 weeks on the website because that is inaccurate. She said please allow up to 12 weeks. Nothing wrong with my return so far, just still processing.
-
@me – No. But just remember mine was not an interception as I thought, they claimed that I wrote a wrong number down under medical so they corrected my tax filing. So a letter was sent this morning notifying me of that but the interception department has access to those type of letters. When I called the main number they told me everything was fine and no letters were sent and even confirmed my refund which is unreal. You would think the entire DOR would have access to the same computer system.
-
WI Tax app shows DDD of by 2/24, today (2/22) I received my refund and it’s $780 less than the amount TurboTax calculated. 😳 I don’t owe anything that would cause an offset. WI Dept of Revenue is tremendously frustrating.
-
Updated to DD day of 3/1. Filed on the 4th of Feb.
-
No update for me 😡😡😡😡filed 1/22 accepted 1/28
-
No update again 😵😩😤😠
-
No update here filed 1/28. last year I had a ddd on the 3rd of February 😑
-
@ Lisa Sue – What happened to you also happened to me. That’s why I encourage everyone to call tax intercept department and confirm there are no letters being mailed for intercept or if there are any changes being mailed. What happens and in your case what most likely happened is that the DOR made changes to your tax return. Then they mail the letter after you receive a refund or direct deposit. It’s very frustrating. Mine was almost $550 less and since I was counting on this money (I know I shouldn’t) but hey I’m not rich, living paycheck to paycheck – it really hurt me as I had that money going to bills and fixing my car.
-
