Good afternoon ladies and participants
I just faxed over my information and plus my hardship over to my tax advocate. So, I will see what will happens next. I will keep everyone informed of any updates I might have.

[Tyrone ashford]

Hi Bart. My taxes were offset because I owed from 2 years. And the paperwork is processed and my transcript now says code 826 on Mar 16 2015. Still don’t have the 846. Also wmr acts like it can’t find my tax refund information why.

[Anonymous]

Bart- A few transcript questions. I did rcv a 4464c 0 letter 2/12/ My transcripts all show the correct amounts. No offsets. No adjusting up or down. My question is the following:
570 03-09-15
570 03-16-15
971 03-09-15
971 03-16-15
What are the dates about?

[Walter]

@ Wally. that is great to hear. Just got off the phone with the IRS and they stated that I my unpostable got cleared as of yesterday. The gentelman told me that it could take up to nine more weeks from the clearance to see any activity. He did say to keep on checking WMR for any updates as they are likely. I am on day 36 and this is getting really exhausting. Hate to think that I have to go through this every year perhaps. They need to have a better way in getting this done in a timely manner. Please keep us posted if anything changes on your end. I am about 5 days behind your progress. I will know that there is change coming my way when you have some progress on yours.

[Anonymous]

Hello again Bart,

Just a little update and asking for your intake. I called the IRS today for what I was told was the ninth time to only be greeted by the spawn of Satan herself. Anyways, I was told that after I verified on 2/9 that I would for sure be waiting 8-9 weeks to even begin processing again. I then brought up the account of others I know that have verified and received their refunds already and she started to stutter and kept talking about how there is no need for me to call again and to wait. I was then told it would be late May before I receive my refund and I filed on 1/20! This is crazy! I am expecting $17,000 so I expect that has something to do with it. I was told there is nothing else for me to do. Any insight?

Thanks!

[P Kep]

I filed with HR Block. Efile accepted on 2/8 but still haven’t received my refund.

[Amber]

I got a message on wmr saying I’d have it by the 16th.

[BartD]

jason yes it means you were prolly just released for processing and u should have an update withing the next week or 2

Leigh yeah have to def keep on trying to call and you have to wait on hold for the hours and hours and verify u will never get your refund if you dont verify

Nsee yeah about 2 weeks sometimes 3 :(

Paul and Margaret yeah ur under review for something and u need to call and see whats going on or wait for the letter

Mparker no the review starts on the date the 570 code is added which doesnt show on the transcripts…

raymann no u dont have to wait and yes they will finish it

TyTY27 yes its slightly faster but still takes about 5 weeks

crystal u can get some hits if wmr slightly changes like tax topic or refund or the words but in most cases no

[MsSmith]

So I talked to the IRS today. They said that they’ ve received everything and its done processing…. they just have to mail a letter to me informing me of the amount change. She also stated that my refund is scheduled to be released on 3/30. WTH!!! So at this point I have an appointment with a tax advocate on Friday morning due to financial hardship. My money is just currently sitting. -very upset

[Nat]

I was just put under review on Friday. I filed 2/14 with TT. IRS received and accepted my return on 2/17. I never moved from the first orange bar on wmr. I called yesterday and a very nice lady told me that I was in fact under review. I haven’t received any letters and irs hasn’t sent any, either. When bars disappeared, it only showed we are processing your refund and no tax topic. Today 3/10, it’s when the 21 days are up and this morning now it shows tax topic 152. I know we have an offset and got health insurance, which we overpayed, through obamacare, but did any of you receive their refunds already?

[Luda]

Eh!!
Now I show no bars, still topic 152, no refubd amount and it only says it is processing , not the 21 day hopeful message :(

[Jason]

I apologize if you’ve already answered this but here it goes. I filed and was accepted 2/3. On 2/20 I lost the bars on WMR. I have called several times I was told I was in error resolutions and it should be in the next 45 days. Well this morning I checked WMR and the tax code 152 is back but the refund amount is gone. It still says your refund is being processed a date will be provided when available. I still can’t view or order my transcripts. Any advice?

[Anonymous]

I verified my ID with my TA on 3/04/15. She told me that she was sending a request to expedite the processing of my return. I haven’t heard anything else. I’m praying that it won’t take another 6 to 8 weeks too. Good luck.

[nicole]

Filed and accepted 3/1 wmr says accepted.. unable to order return transcripts.. anyone accepted 3/1 have any progress?

[Leigh]

I filed my taxes 2/3/15…I received a letter 2/28 asking me to verify online…I went to the website, apparently didn’t answer a question correctly, and it locked me out saying to call the 1-800 number. I have been calling since Mar 1…CANNOT get through…I went today to the only IRS building in my town and she could not help me because she is not “trained” to…are they purposely locking people out of calling? Is there anything I can do? Today marks 5 weeks since I filed. I got my state back in 4 days!

[Anonymous]

Hello again,

I just spoke with my TA who said her request to release of refund was accepted. Please allow 2 weeks. She says she’ll call me 3/19?

So have you had experience with this? Will it really take 2 weeks? That puts me almost to my 8 week mark.

I don’t expect WMR to update. But if it were what day do weekly update?

[Anonymous]

TA called this morning says irs accepted request to release refund.

Says give it 2 weeks to be.

Says she’ll call me back 3/19.

[Nicole]

State was accepted on 2/8. Here it is 3/10 and site says it’s still processing. I never had to wait this long. And the number they list to call is bs, lines are always busy and you’re told to call back.

[Joe]

Update – My tax transcripts were available this morning, showing a code of 846, meaning that my refund was approved. Where’s My Refund is still showing the first bar, stating the return was accepted, not approved. I hope this helps. I will let you know when i have a direct deposit day. Good Luck!

[marie]

Has anyone received a mail date or a check after receiving cp53a notice?

[Paul & Margaret]

I filed 01/23/2015 and was accepted the same day. I still see take action on WMR with a reference number 1121. On my transcripts on the bottom it still says code 570 additional account pending. And the as of date was yesterday. I have not gotten any letters either. I also have my pwn insurance. . Oh yea it also has 0.00 where this 03/09/2015 date is. I guess i give up on my taxes this year. I had to wait until August last year to get my taxes.

Good Morning,

I spoke with a LOCAL tax advocate today and was able to fax over TAS form 911 explaining my hardship she said that someone should be calling within 3 days of receiving the form. I might have to fax in bills and statements explaining my hardship but it has to total close to my offset balance from my return. I will keep you all posted, she said hopefully by the end of this month so thats what I am shooting for. Keep your positive energy flowing, I know this is extremely stressful.

[Anonymous]

No update. 03/16/2015 is the date next to my 570/971.
I am less stressed after reading SO SO many people rcv’d the 4464c 0 letter.
TT (where I filed through) also has a forum of “angry” letter receivers.

[heather]

@far
did you get your refund early? I didn’t. 1 more day.

[fedupwithirs]

WOOOHOOO

Finally getting somewhere

My tax advocate called today and advised me that the irs is FINALLY sorting my taxes out and I should recieve my return next week and will recieve a refund date by the end of this week!!!!

I am sooo excited I could SCREAM!!

I asked if there was anything I could do, she stated that there was nothing they needed. this was a random review.

LUCKY ME.
(sarcasm)

Omg I cannot wait to get my money. I hope it is in this friday ! (fingers crossed)

[mosstrap]

I just off the phone with an agent from the IRS. She said since I mail my letter 12c in then it will take 6-8 weeks for them to process it and right now they haven’t even received it.. Post office tracking says it was sign for on feb-23, now today is March 10th and IRS says they don’t have it. The agent also warn me not to fax it since I already mail it and if I do then it will take twice as long. CAN YOU SAY IM STRAIGHT BLOWED!!!!!! WEll let my experience be a warning to others, DO NOT MAIL IT IN, muck what the letter says because mine said their was no way to verify receipt if I fax it in… Fax it in people if you want to get it back ASAP.. Well now I’m going to add up this extra interest I got to pay on these credit cards (I was going to pay them off) oh well.

[NonProfitCPA]

We are following a major situation here where Amazon is freezing accounts that are using gift cards from the Turbotax bonus refunds program. So far no resolution has been reached. Beware if you do not want to lose your refund:

[Kristen]

Having the same issue.. Any update for you yet??

[Suzanne]

My nj state refund was excepted on 01/20 and I still have not received a dime. I called she said they are still processing my return:/

[Anonymous]

I just verified my ID after being under random review for 6 weeks. I know they tell you it takes 6 weeks but I wanted to know if anyone was able to get it before. This has been so frustrating another 6 weeks would put me at 13 weeks. Please let me know if anyone was able to receieve their refund before the 6 weeks and how long did it take

[noreturninsite]

Infilled my return jan 2nd and I am still being processed

[Anonymous]

Does anyone know how long it takes to receive your refund if you are going through the identity theft process? The IRS is telling me up to 180 days but has anyone gone through this that didn’t have to wait 180 days? A family member filed my fiancés information for a previous tax year and we are trying to fight it.

[MParker]

Hey Bart D.,
I spoke with an IRS rep this morning and she stated that I have to count 60 days from the date on the notice which is 03/02 but I received the letter two weeks prior. So did my review begin on the 03/02 or did it start when my return was received on the 01/21? Again as I stated in a previous post that I have been processing for a while it will be 7 weeks this coming Wednesday. Do you think I should get a Tax Advocate? Or just wait them out because they haven’t requested any information from me as of yet.

[Anonymous]

Bart I spoke to a rep today they said I have to wait till my tax sees my case before I can get a refund is this true and I don’t plan on faxing any info in so if I wait it out will they just Finnish my taxes?

[TYTY27]

Hey Bart, I have a question! I got a letter today to verify my identity which i did via online and i successfully completed it. I was reading something about a cut off time or date as to when each batch is completed and processed. Also I would like to know is verifying it online is faster then calling in and verifying with a live rep? Thanks

[crystal]

Thanks Bart, I appreciate the time and feedback. One more question. Is there any way that you can tell if you are back in processing and when you are in review do yo go back through processing?

[BartD]

wally 3 weeks max if u are actually processing

Erica g no u don’t need to reverify but 4 weeks is the in its more like 5 weeks soo u shouldn’t be 2 far off

tren no

angel 70 percent go to manual review

jen don’t follow wmr follow the codes on the transcript u should have a ddd soon and get a real update.. you should have an update in about a week.. wrm switching is a sign of it processing

crystal no the date means nothing…. that can change and if u been in review that long u shouldn’t be 2 far off…

[Tanya V]

Nothing from us either. No new cycle, no new codes – just nothing. :/

[peggy johnson]

I JUST GOT A 4464C I NEVER IN MY LIFE GOT THIS CRAP AND FIRST TIME I EVER USED TAX SLAYER. I AM UPSET AND WORRIED BC I HOPE I DID EVERYTHIGN RIGHT.. I AM AMOTHER OF 3 KIDS AND I NEED MY MONEY.L. SHOULD I BE WORRIED.. PLEASE EMAIL ME BACK SOMEONE OR JUST LET ME KNOW WHAT TO DO

[MParker]

@Wally did they request any info from you while under review?? And when did you file? I’ve been under review for weeks now. I filed on 1/21 received a CP05 letter the 3rd week of February stating no additional information needed…thanks

[MzGSU]

@Erica, went to ID verify and it said if u receive a letter, haven’t receive one, so I will call 2morrow and see what’s up….thanks for the info, did they say how long after verifying would it take?

[Annie]

Looking for some answers.
the irs sent my refund to repunlic bank 2/18
I was supposes to have DD. But said it was rejected. So they were gonna send me a check. Waitef 2 weeks. Nothing.
I have talked to a live rep. Once. Found out they had half of my physical address and hald of mailing address. Got that fixed.
STILL NO CHECK.
I have called the 866number every day trying to talk to another live rep.
I JUST WANT TO TALK TO SOMEBODY REAL.
HELP…

[Wally]

Bart:
I called IRS today (March 9) to follow up on my “review” status, and got lucky. The agent told me that as of last Thursday (March 5) my return was no longer under review. That it’s been pushed for processing. Based on your experience… how long will it take now that’s out of review, for me to get my return? I’m doing dd, but the agent told me to allow 6-8 weeeks (that that’s what they’re supposed to say), even though there’s nothing else to review.

Thank you again, Bart!

[malvarado0105]

thollis8, No luck as of now :(…I’ll continue to check my transcripts. Does anyone know when the IRS updates our transcripts? At a loss for words & desperate for answers.

[SM]

@chrissy I guess where on the same boat I feel like that’s all I been doing to checking on everything every single day it’s so stressful I will keep u posted if I learn anything good luck to everyone this whole process is very stressful

[Alisha]

My cycle is the same and wmr ddd is 3/12

[Alisha]

I file 2/20 accepted 2/23….had one bar on wmr for 1 week then no bars for 2 weeks….just got my ddd today and it is for 3/12….mine was very easy no changes and it still took the 21 days

[Alisha]

i filed 2/20 accepted 2/23 was on 1 bar for a week then no bars for almost 2 weeks….wmr just now updated giving me a ddd by 3/12…there are people that have been waiting way longer some even since January so I’m thankful that it only took the 21 days instead of weeks… It could be worse

[Joe]

Hi Kyson – I filed and was accepted on 3/5/15, but have not recieved any updates. Relatively easy return (1040EZ), only my address has changed since I’ve recieved my W-2 (not sure if this will delay processing). I will keep you updated once approved on WMR.

[MsSmith]

In the same boat… had to fax in letter for obamacare …did that 2 weeks ago. Transcripts were able to viewed on Friday with the 570 code and the cycle 20150905. Ive seen that it basically means that stuff has been processed. I think we are just waiting for our refund to be released. I am praying that it happens by the end of the week!!

[taxonomy]

What a bunch of hooey, huh? Filed and accepted Jan 23, day 26 I call and they said wait for a letter no further info. Finally got it Thursday and faxed in 1095-a’s. Now another 6-8 weeks before they come up with some other line of crap. They could have told me this stuff when my bars disappeared what seems like months ago. These people simply can’t be that incompetent, I suspect politics

[Jennifer]

Now i am seeing my refund amount again on the WMR and still says processing, is anyone else getting this? Last week the amout was gone and i had a refund link and now its gone again, does this mean anything?

[De5670]

@Shi
@bonnybleu 83
@Brianda Moore

I am letting everyone know the outcome of speaking with my tax advocate on today. Well here is thing now why they are still holding my refund is because of the education credit so she asked me to fax over to her my T tax statement that shows how much I paid both school to make sure that is the correct amount I am supposed to receive. Also, I have to fax over my disconnect notice for my utilities once I get her all that she will have them to release my refund. I will keep everyone updated on whatever else happens.

[Linda]

Had anyone that send their IS form to the Kansas City office got their return yet?

[Anonymous]

It took a week to get the letter. I’m getting super impatient for sure. I don’t understand why they won’t let go of the money if everything is done. Makes no sense. WMR still hasn’t updated for me either. I guess I’ll just wake up checking everything every morning until I get it. :-(

[Erica]

Filed with Louisiana on 2/3. For a while it said “information not available”. Like two weeks ago it changed to “pending approval”. I called 3/6/15, and it said I needed to verify. I verified online today 3/9 so hoepfully, soon I will receive it.

[SM]

@Christy so I filled on 2/6 got a 846 on Fri 3/6 with a date of 3/23 next to it I checked wmr it’s says still processing no ddd yet I hope I don’t get a letter stating it’s gonna take a couple more weeks I really need the money as I bet u do to I don’t understand stand it’s done so just give us are money

[MzGSU]

Louisiana filers, anyone received theirs yet? my status, says pending approval, its been there for about 2 weeks..

[ryan vogt]

Wow, how do you reach the injured spouse department? I have been trying all day and keep getting the run around.

[Omg]

i just talk to the irs and due to having more the one account number they will automatically stop your direct deposit and send you a check hope this helps

[Anonymous]

So far I’ve seen nothing from my TA.. She took my info and sent an email to the irs. Then gave them 2 weeks to respond which is up today. Idk what happens if they don’t respond.

An irs agent mailed me transcripts but this years were blank. I told her id ordered them multiple times and they didn’t show up. Which is true. So she printed them and sent them out.

[Shi]

@Brianda Moore
@bonnybleu83
@DE5670

Also when reading othere forums be sure to double check if they received a CP53A notice as ourselves or is it just a CP53 notice because the CP53 notices are processed a lot faster because no errors were flagged they just cant deposit.

[Anonymous]

Yep same as me. I thought when I was able to request a mailed copy of my return I was getting somewhere … Nope! Letter said the same thing it says on line. Let me know if the TA is any help. I’ve considered it myself but haven’t contacted one yet.

[Anonymous]

So frustrated. It’s ridiculous my return is super simple. Everything is basic with one eic. So tired of waiting and no info or help from agents.

My WMR still has nothing as of today.

Hopefully my TA is helpful and calls tm. She is suppose to anyway. Maybe she’ll she’d some light on this. Considering they’ve had my return forever and need nothing from me.

I requested my transcripts by mail and received letters saying they could not send them. Call identity issues #.

[Omg]

I’m going through the same thing right now i don’t what to think i know everything on my paperwork was right i called a verified with my bank… Did you every get your money……. Is there hope?

[Anonymous]

@Tangy- Same boat. MN filed and accepted thru TT on 2/1. Website said it would be processed by 3/8. This morning-date is gone and still being processed.

[Judy]

Missouri? e-filed both fed and state 2/7. Received fed within 2 weeks but still waiting on state, Website says it’s being processed so I guess that’s an acknowledgment that it was received but it has been saying that for 4 weeks now and still no update – no refund. Anyone know what’s going on? Not that much money but that’s not the point.

[donna]

I haven’t gotten my either called the 800 number and got told processing and thats all they

told me. when i asked why so long since it was sent electronically they had no answer and

when i asked about looking into it they could/would not look into i

[donna]

has anyone been having problems with nj state refund i filed electronically and has been 5 weeks and nothing but it’s processing and everyone else i know got theirs

[thollis8]

malvarado0105, have you had any luck? I have the same cycle code & a 971/570 with $0.00 beside both but the date of 3/23/15. I’m wondering if this is because after having to send in my Obamacare forms, they increased my refund amount. But I’m still not seeing a DDD. I’m desperate for information here!!!

[Shi]

@Brianda Moore
@bonnybleu83
@DE5670

The first advocate that I spoke to I told her about my situation and she was taking my information and then just hung up the phone and I could not get her back on the line. The second one I spoke to didnt even listen to my full story just said that I was trying to find out whats going on with my refund and transferred me to the IRS. The last lady I spoke to I asked her to listen to my full story, explained to her about my hardships as far as repossessions and evictions but she said thats not a hardship and the TA office isnt required to help everybody. She explained that she was only able to assist with telling me if there was any activity on my account as a COURTESY only and we disconnected. I am beyond frustrated because I have 17 days to find a place to stay otherwise me and my daughter will be on the streets. I am working but with me being past due on most bills I am pretty much just playing catch up. Not enough time to save money well not enough money to save money.

[Anonymous]

Last Tuesday I looked at my transcripts and had a cycle date of 20150805 with code 846. Still no money. Today I received a letter in the mail saying everything has been approved but we will not get our money for a few more weeks. Has anyone else got this?

[Annie2020]

Those who have tried a tax advocate…. I had one because my return was in Error Resolution and I was looking at a 6 week wait.
I called the Kansas City, MO Advocate office directly (find the direct # for your state on the IRS website). I left a voice mail at like 11 and was called back in 2 hours. I was OVERLY polite and just inquired if they could help me. I explained I had just lost my job.

The first person I spoke to got everything moving, I never spoke to my advocate (besides a generic form letter advising I should hope to have my return by 4/15), but it all got fixed up. No faxing, no hassles.

I know results may vary, but maybe try calling your local state office directly instead?

Good luck!

[Chatty]

I filed 3/1 through TurboTax and was accepted 3/1 (according to TurboTax email). WMR is still on one bar and my transcript is not showing any info or cycle codes. Irritating!
