WMR "unavailable" (still??)

[Tori]

Just logged in to check WMR & I got “we’re sorry, where’s my refund is currently unavailable” message. I’m in Texas & it’s 2:46. Is it still down for everyone?

Checked this morning at 6 AM ET and have a DDD on 2/8/16. Filed and accepted on 1/28/16.

I was still at one bat around 1 and woke up around 4:30 with a DDD for 2/8.

Just an FYI from a local NY news station:

IRS computer problems shut down tax return e-file system

Created: 02/03/2016 9:45 PM EST

The IRS says it has stopped accepting electronically filed tax returns because of problems with some of its computer systems. The outage could affect refunds, but the IRS says it doesn’t anticipate “major disruptions.”
The agency on Wednesday experienced what it is calling a “hardware failure.” The e-file system and the “where’s my refund” service are among the affected areas.
The IRS says some systems will remain out of service at least until Thursday.
Taxpayers can continue to send electronic returns to companies that serve as middlemen between taxpayers and the IRS.
But the agency says those companies have to hold on to the tax returns until the IRS systems are up and running again.
The IRS says 90 percent of taxpayers will receive refunds within three weeks.

IRS also said wmr is not giving the correct info, so those who dont actual see the unavailable message may still not get the correct info

All the computer systems went down.. It says it shouldn’t effect anyone whose already filed..

I don’t know how that can be true if the system is down.. It’s said they are hoping to resolve the issue as quickly as possible… They also said that they don’t know how big the problem is yet..
