No update for me! Waited the 5 business days. Now waiting on the 24 business hours to wait to for advocate to return call. This is ridiculous. My coworkers wife was told to self quarantine but wouldn’t “waste” a test?
@GoFigure
Same here on transcript! Yeah I had to call advocate line twice this am just to get the correct number for my advocate! Then they have 24 business hours to return call. So sure it’ll be Monday! I’ve been self employed for 10 years no problems first year w2 and this shit! You’d think Congress demand they release given the circumstances! Engages me. Got 2nd job when i found out about this and ordered closed from Corona. Praying something happens soon
@GoFigure
My w2 isn’t even uploaded in ssa still. Its my 5th day for advocate so guess I’ll call back and request direct info. And I’ve had coworkers go through but they weren’t randomly flagged
@Melissa2
I’m still being held for income verification but believe those showing nothing filed is due to turbo tax not transmitting correctly and now 8 week delay! We’re are all struggling adv to contact:

March 18, 2020 at 2:16 pm in reply to: If there’s a government shutdown IRS will be closed too? #4395248Many IRS work from home anyways. Told today my advocate is just a temp one assigned as a placer in system till the 5 business days is up. Also told the phone disconnection or technical difficulty transfer when your suppose to be connected is what they do when they are too busy!!!!???? So hanging up on desperate people who’ve been on hold for hours is IRS policy????
March 18, 2020 at 1:27 pm in reply to: If there’s a government shutdown IRS will be closed too? #4395230Nothing still on ssa. Still waiting on advocate to contact me. Guess i called state advocate office as well which were very quick but they only do state income taxes. Not sure why main site links you to these local offices then? Hopefully hear something soon as schools and my 2nd job closed due to virus in our area! 🤞🤞
@Katie
2nd call 2hrs 8 minutes same bs
3rd call told initial screener do not put me back into that broken system that’s insane! Finally got emergency advocate but now gotta wait for them to contact. They gave up to 5 days to call before they give you their contact info. This is really aggravating me.I didn’t update either! Mine being held bc they can’t verify w2 income! SSA has no wages for 2019 for me. Called to request tax advocate again!
1st call 2 hrs 26 minutes then went to transfer said we are having technical difficulties then transferred me to main IRS switchboardI ordered transcripts on 2/28 just got 2 days ago and my transcripts had all my tax return info on it eventhough it says process date 3/9
971 3/16. So they knew they were doing this way in advance. Today is 60 days since accepted but it doesn’t officially begin till 3/16? No wonder they tell us so much bullcrap. They don’t know their heads from their assesNo go for me. On hold for advocate. Mine held bc they can’t confirm my w2. These apparently don’t come from social security the irs sends to them per SSA. And they have till end of September to do so. She also stated this is first year in her 14 years she’s even heard the irs holding returns to wait for employers to file! Great my employer just filed 18′ in October so I’ll be waiting! Initial rep was great and put me in as expedited request???
@Brokemomma
Did your wmr update? Can’t access my transcripts online. Praying hard. My insurance gets cut off today and beyond irritated at this point!
@Brokemama
Praying! Can’t access mine online but wmr is not updating. But had same codes accepted 1/27@junior
I’m in same boat filed 1/23 accepted 1/27 60 day review begins 3/16. Absolute crap! I’d complain to anyone you can to draw attention. They’ve already had mine 60 days and here we go.
Funny thing is told 2/28 under 60 days but transcript said processed 3/9. They tell you something different every time! Sc here eitc creditSo looks like their fraud system is flagging up to 71% false positives. We need to get publically vocal as people are saying this isn’t a problem? Make your voices heard guys power in numbers.

Here is a clue what’s going on this year. Also advocates have changed procedures
https://taxpayeradvocate.irs.gov/reports/2019-annual-report-to-congress/most-serious-problemsI was told on 2/28 i was under 60 day review then told on Monday my review doesn’t begin till 16th but my transcript showed my taxes weren’t processed till 3/9 so not sure how they had that info. So held for 55 days to be put under 60 day review on 3/16! Bullshit. Let’s complain publically. I am
Mine says same thing as everyone else’s same cycle. Know their new fraud program is flagging 79% false positives. So bunch of people being held to point taxpayer advocates posted a blog on the new procedure for help this year it’s so overwhelming!
Finally got transcript in mail.
Code 150 tac return filed cycle 20200805 3/9/20
Credit to your account dated 4/15/20 with amt of return. Does this mean i won’t get refund till april 15th?Yep this is really pissing me off. Think we should all bombard our senators and the white house with complaints! If they are working on a stimulus plan to protect those hourly workers in industries affected by coronavirus certainly they can give us hourly workers our rightfully due refunds!!!!!
So here is answer to why tax advocates aren’t responding
https://taxpayeradvocate.irs.gov/news/NTA_Blog_Implementation_of_New_TAS_Case_Acceptance_Procedures_for_Non-ID_Theft_Refund_Fraud_Cases_Filing_Season_2020?category=Tax%20NewsYou absolutely know they are and will somehow con us out of our interest. Mine was accepted 1/27 but don’t officially go under review till 3/16 but was told on 2/28 i already was! I say we overload senators and white house with complaints!
@RT
I was basically given 3 corresponding stories as well. Bet they make money off delaying or refunds. Complete bullshit imo

I was told i was under 60 days on 2/28 but yesterday told my 60 days doesn’t start till 3/16. So they held for review for 45 days then put on 60 day hold.I get it I’m a single mom of 3 and finally got courage to leave an abusive relationship of 10 years thinking my return would be here to get us through!
So called the IRS again
Called again today 3/9 now being told my review doesn’t begin until 3/16 and why i haven’t received letter. But it will be mailed on 3/16? Said it’s a law for ransom selection with credits and not eligible for anything until 60 days from 3/16. Why am i being told different things!So called the IRS again this morning(1hr wait). Being told something different every time!
Filed 1/23
Accepted 1/27
EITC which I’ve received for 12 years!
2/28 after processing still showing told by rep i was being held for 60 day review! Said letter being mailed.
2/28 called second time asking about taxpayer advocate and said not eligible until 4 weeks.
Well nothing came with this date. -
