Strange – can anyone clarify? The IRS website tells me that my refund WAS MAILED (their words) on 4/7, yet I specifically indicated that the refund was to be direct deposited, and provided my correct banking information. Needless to say, I don’t see it in my bank account, although the bank says it’s because of the weekend and I should check back Monday or Tuesday.
I’m thinking the IRS goofed and actually MAILED me a paper check. Does this happen? Why would the site say a refund WAS MAILED that was supposed to be direct deposited?
Thanks for any advice.
Tonya – I think it’s time you called. That’s way too long without a status change, if you are not a first time filer.
Jade – it’s been a few days since you zeroed green. How long did it take to get your deposit date message?
Keep hope alive everyone. Last week I just opened my checking account and there it was. So all of you still waiting, its probably going to be any day now
Filed tax return on March 1st and still waiting.
Filed 2/9
Accepted 2/9
WMR- 1 bar
Transcripts: Account transcript available but says “no return filed”This is by far the longest I’ve ever waited for IRS processing. I’m hoping this movement means I’m closer to the end.
The website says April 7 is a State holiday. No updates or telephone calls today.
Finally got that update I’ve been waiting to see. Code 845 for 4/12… Amen
Georgiagal – Congratulations and thanks for the update. That’s the first DDD I’ve seen since February.
Just to give some hope to all the GA filers still patiently waiting, I filed 1/25 and was accepted by state and federal 1/26. As of today April 6th my state was just approved with an expected due date by or before April 10th. GA did not start processing refunds this year until Feb 1 and it’s been close to 9 weeks from that date for me to get my approval. Hopefully that gives some context and helps others
We filed February 1 accepted February 2 and still nothing. 🤬🤬
On February 19, 2015 at 12:30pm there was a post on this thread where the person asked for a return call from the GA DOR, but the caller id showed UTAH. Is Georgia still using an out-of-state call center for initial questions?
Definition of insanity – checking the Georgia Refund Status website every day and expecting a different result.
Anyone have a DDD ?
Maybe the floodgates will open on a specific date. I guess they’re waiting until after April 18th, and then check to see if the same SSN has multiple returns, then verify that the tax withheld/payment amounts on the return match Georgia’s own records.
Three years ago, I started working as a manager for a company. During the financial crisis, I wanted to apply for the ERC, but a colleague informed me that my company might not be eligible
Yeah same here, same address and everything really weird. Just hang in there gang!!!
Thanks for replying. Sharing info will help us get through this.
Jade, You’re one of the first who filed. Even using the date Georgia said they’d start accepting returns, you are at nine weeks.
None of my personal or banking information changed for five years, so I don’t see how they would need to verify my identity.
Not that it helps us, but several states are telling their citizens to wait twelve weeks.
Nothing new here, still sitting in green parenthesis, waiting.
Received an identity verification letter yesterday, finally zeroed this morning with no DD. Maybe the same case for a lot of us who have been waiting. Georgia need to get their crap together!
Anybody get any news?
Nothing on my end. Still waiting for my Georgia return refund. Refund amount in green, told to wait 12 weeks.I’ve been employed by this company for three years, although I only do so part-time. Do I still meet the requirements for the ERC’s qualifying wages?
Transcripts show code 840 with dare of 3/29/2023, hoping it was mailed out already. Has anyone recieved their check yet
So I filled on 01/27 updated the 29th ddd was the 14th of February so I amended my return to correct claiming EITC/HOH & CTC, amended return was received via mail on 3/9 any info as to when I’ll receive the rest through check ? It’s my first time ever amending a return
Elyse, The reps do not give the same story even when looking at the same information source. I looked back on this discussion thread and I have not seen a deposit mentioned since late February.
If the DOR knows nothing will be processed until day x, I wish they would just be honest and say not to expect any changes until day x.
Hey everyone! Today 3/31/23 we got our 846!
Filled 1/28 and accepted 1/29. Was processed on 2/20 no other updates until today.
Here is hoping for everyone else! See you guys next year!I also called and was told that my refund was approved and to allow additional time for a DDD. That was 3 days ago and my refund amount is still in green parenthesis. Called back this morning and was given the 12 week speech. I asked where I was in the 4 step process that the automated system refers to the agent told me that I she was unaware of a four step process and that I was not the only one waiting. This is madness.
I’ve had the delayed message for 2 months. Filed January 26th. No movement. Refund is on hold while they review income, the letter they sent said to wait 60 days.
Filed and Accepted Federal & State: 03/30/2023
State Refund Received: 03/23/2023
Federal WMR Updated on 03/31/2023 with a DDD of 04/03/2023
SBTPG Funded & Money Sent to Bank Account: 03/31/2023This is the first and only year that mines moved as fast as it did, previous years I always had delays either due to ID verification or the dreadful health insurance form.
WaitingGA2023 – I agree with you this is totally ridiculous. My refund amount is green with parentheses around the numbers. The agent I spoke with said that everything looked good and it looks like it’s been approved, now I am waiting for the funds to be released. I don’t know how long it takes to have the funds released, but this is awful. When you call the GA DOR you’re on hold forever and you have 50 calls ahead of you bc so many ppl are asking questions about their refunds.
I apologize as I’m sure this is covered in one of the other threads but I couldn’t find it. I got a 846 this morning and it has a date of 4/7 as refund issued. Does that mean that the check will be sent out on 4/7? I assume so but I’ve never gotten a paper check before.
Thanks so much!
Well, so much for getting good news on Thursday.
Looks like I’ll be calling again next week.
Totally ridiculous for Georgia to be so slow in processing refunds.Anyone else who filed today? I just got accepted. Hopefully a smooth and fast tax year.
Andrea – Glad you have been approved. Is your GTC account status showing green zeroes or your refund amount in parenthesis?
I cannot believe it is taking this long. I did call and spoke with an agent who pulled up my account she said it looks good and it looks like it’s been approved now we’re just waiting for it to be sent out. It doesn’t make sense if it’s been approved why not release the funds and send me the refund. The lady was super nice but we may need to wait the 12 weeks. I just don’t understand why GA is not sending out the refunds?!?! I hope we all get updated soon.
Anyone else filed early March and got the delay message? My as of date is 4/3 which I calculated is 21 business days but I’ve always gotten it within normal time frame with all days running concurrent.. looking to possibly update Friday- I’ve always been an 05. Anybody who had delayed message then received movement and or return? This tax Year really sucks -I’ve never had any issues all the years I’ve filed smh. Called and said I’m in the error department but she didn’t See any errors 🙄 and gave me the 10 weeks speech 🤦🏽♀️
Nika zeroed out on a Thursday morning. I hope we all see some progress tomorrow (Thursday)
Georgia is so slow in processing refunds. I, too, would like to know the “WHY”.@TJ
Sorry for what you been going thru as well.
The state is very quick when YOU owe them money, I wish if/when we owed them money we could tell them you’ll get it in twelve weeks.@patiencenotmyvirtue31, I’m sorry that you are dealing with this too. I’m with you, I’d like to know “why” it’s taking so long. I filed 2 weeks before my sister and mother did and they had their refunds back within 3 weeks. The person I spoke with didn’t say if anything was wrong or not, she just said to wait 12 weeks from filing date and then said something about it might be done before then. Hopefully, we will get it soon. Until then, I guess I’ll be checking every day haha
Called Headquarters. Was transferred to senior person on my direct deposit not being at the bank even though the IRS said it was deposited 3/21. Been waiting on hold for 20 minutes but no one is picking back up. Thanks for nothing. I’ll be closing my accounts once I get my refund. Tired of the lady saying the next person will be with you in a moment, yeah right. Hanging up.
IRS says Direct Deposit of refund was put into my account March 21, 2023. I had just found prior that they had closed the account (probably because I bank there infrequently.
I reopened an account (not the same # on my tax return) and WF said not to worry, if the refund comes in, they’ll open up the closed account and give it 30 days. Well, that answer is not very satisfactory to me. By reading these messages, I have seen that to be inconsistent with others.@TJ
In same boat as you accepted Feb 1 called three times already. Got put on hold and hung up on the second time. Finally reached a very nice agent who confirmed nothing is wrong with my return but said the generic 12 weeks wait. She was the first however to apologize for the long wait. If I had a reason as to WHY I would accept it much better.@WaitingGA2023
I’m with you, somebody needs to light some kind of fire under them to at the very least get an explanation instead of just blowing people off with the generic “It’ll take 12 weeks”. Makes me wonder if to some degree if they’re just that swamped or short staffed or if they’re just sitting on them(either to hold our money or just being lazy). I sincerely hope it’s not the latter.I wonder why local TV stations aren’t asking questions.
The DOR website says to call if the status hasn’t changed after six weeks.
Next year I plan to owe Georgia at tax time, but not where I have to pay a penalty. I’m not going to go through three years in a row of waiting.
Well hello again old friends. Filed today, 3/28, electronic with Tax Act and filed my IS with my return.
Already have the acceptance from the IRS email.
Hoping for a quicker turn around than last year <3@Tonya
Same here
Got accepted on the 1st keep getting told 12 weeksJust checked my account and refund was deposited. I used TT. SBTPG posted funds this morning and my back just released them sometime after 1pm today
I filed 1/25, called yesterday and was told wait the full 12 weeks then callback. This is ridiculous nothing else to do but wait.
Tonya – You’re closing in on eight weeks. If you’re still showing “processing” I’d call them. When I called, there were 50 callers ahead of me and I was on hold for about 25 minutes. I assume the wait is shorter in the morning. They open at 8.
We file February 1st and got accepted the 2nd and still nothing.
Filed 2/1
Accepted 2/1
PATHER

Hope this helps.
Til next year!TJ, thanks and hoping you won’t have to wait as long next year !
@WaitingGA2023, thank you for the explanation! I’m sitting at the green zero on the first page after signing in and my refund amount is in green parenthesis on the other one. Hopefully I won’t have to wait much longer. Calling today and hearing ” it’s still processing and could take up to 12 weeks” wasn’t what I wanted to hear :( but she did say it might not take that long. I wish you much luck on getting your deposit day soon!!! Keeping my fingers crossed for you!
Anyone have to id verify, then get switched to a check being mailed? How long did it take to get your check if so?
Anyone with a 3/29/23 DDD received there’s yet? Using credit karma wondering if there is a waiting period also?
TJ, my understanding is the green zeroes pretty much means your return has finished processing and no money is owed by either party. If the return showed a refund, it means the refund is being processed. If the return showed an amount due, it means the taxpayer’s payment has been processed. I hope my Check Refund Status message changes soon from twelve weeks to the ten day message.
@WaitingGa2023, thank you for the reply! When I sign in, on the first page is 0 in green and then when I go the page with my returns and click on 2022 it shows my refund in green parenthesis, I guess I’m trying to see if this is normal?On mine, the first page with the 0 was black until today, I’m confused lol
TJ – In my GTC (Georgia Tax Center) online account, my status amount turned green. Next step is for my status amount to show $0.00 in green, meaning my refund was approved.
