      It will say you have entered it wrong if you have not been accepted yet. make sure you are entering the correct amount before any fees.

        @NYCteachermom — Im glad to do so! We all need a little reassurance, right? :-) I know I do!

        Question: does anyone know what, why, and how they could possibly not approve a refund? Has anyone been received then NOT ACCEPTED? What happens? Is it different than a usual audit situation? Also, is it typos, etc. that cause this, or bigger things?

        I always stress so hard until I see that Approved bar. So I thought discussing the unliklihood of it might help, lol.

          I think I am doing it right but it keeps saying I’m not. Any suggestions??

            Yes @michelle that is what it means,no bars is a sign of processing, next step if no issues are found will be refund approved with a ddd. I don’t expect any changes until after 1/20

                I used H&R Block two years ago and was a part of their screw up with Form 8863. So last year I went with TurboTax and things went well. However, due to their insanely inflated prices this year, I opted to give H&R Block another shot because what they charged to do it online was a MUCH better deal than TurboTax. Well, mine still says pending, and what Amber said does not surprise me. I should of just paid a little more and filed with TurboTax again. I wish I could change who I filed through now.

                  Does Where’s My Refund always display my refund status with the tracker showing three steps?
                  No. In some cases the tracker graphic will not be shown if your return is being reviewed prior to step two: “Refund Approved,” and instead an explanation or instructions will be provided depending on the situation. This can happen even if you previously checked Where’s My Refund and it showed the status as “Return Received” along with the tracker. In these cases be assured that we have your tax return and we are processing it. Please follow the directions provided by Where’s My Refund?. Otherwise if we need more information we will contact you – usually by mail. If we send you a letter about your return, please follow the instructions in the letter as soon as possible.

                  I read this on the irs website, does this mean if your bars dissapeared on WMR that this is what is going on?

                      H&R Block will not even submit the returns to the irs until the 20th. So you won’t see anything or get accepted until at least the 20th. That’s why I didn’t file with them!

                          I filed TT on 1/10/15 and was accepted on 1/12. I’ve noticed many people from Arkansas who filed after me already got their state refund. I’m in Arkansas too and haven’t gotten mine. My federal still has one bar. What do you think is going on?

                                Filed 1/7, accepted 1/13 and today on 1/16 my bar disappeared but still says topic 152 (direct deposit). I also cannot get my transcripts, getting a scary error msg when I try to login to the online system. “We cannot process your transcript request. Please contact the Identity Protection Specialized Unit (IPSU) at 800-908-4490. ” I am seeing a few others with this msg tonight too, not sure if we should freak out or not. My return is very straight forward and usual, same kids, same job, same address etc.

                                  Yep it happened to me too, I was accepted on the 13th and today my bar disappeared. I also tried to login to the online system to see my transcripts today for the first time this year and I get this msg – We cannot process your transcript request. Please contact the Identity Protection Specialized Unit (IPSU) at 800-908-4490.

                                  I have never had any ID theft at all, I have always filed the same easy return every single year, same kids, same address, same job everything is the same. I am now talking to another girl who is having the same error when she tries to get online. I am freaking out :( Anyone else having issues?

                                        Filed on 1/14 with TT and still in PENDING mode too. Everytime I log into WMR I get this message

                                        We cannot provide any information about your refund. You must wait at least 24 hours after you get the acknowledgement e-mail that your tax return was received by the IRS

                                        Please read the following information related to your tax situation:
                                        Tax Topic 152, Refund Information

                                        Makes no sense. Just got to wait until Tuesday I suppose. My hope is that the 21 days started the 14th and not the 20th. **crossing my fingers**

                                                  I’m not sure were allowed to ask these questions here but it’s worth a shot. In November I started supplimenting my income by working through Amazons Mturk program. So far I’m made about 550.00. 400.00 of which I’ve transfered to my bank account. It’s my understanding that I need to file a 1099-C to report this as Self Employment profit in order for me to pay the 15.3% tax on it however I’m asked to provide a business code to categorize what type of work it is and I’m at a loss of what I should select. Has anyone done Mturk work? and If so how do you normally report this ? Do I need to provide documentation? I’ve only ever had a simple 1040EZ with 1 employer so I’m curious also if this will delay my return. Any advice is appreciated. Thanks!

                                                    So if you were accepted early, does that mean you will get it early? Or do you have to wait till the first date of the refund schedule saying the 6th of February? I see alot of people saying stuff about a test batch, how true is that & how do you know if you were in the test batch? When I go to WMR my bar is on received & processing and it says that it can take up to 21 days. I guess I’m confused!

I refiled a few minutes ago so I guess I’m back in the regular line.

                                                                  Interesting though as the information that was rejected was autofilled by TaxAct. I had to change it and refile.

Just got accepted this morning. :-D So no you all don’t have to wait for the 20th if you filed after the 12th, as I filed on the 14th. I had to wait until my forms were ready or I would have filed way before that! I have one bar on WMR, with Tax Topic 152. Fingers crossed.

                                                                      in reply to: Turbo Tax Filers #4092772

It was great! I had filed early last year and was early accepted and received my refund exactly on the date that TT said I would. I do not have any TT fees taken from my refund so I got mine the exact date that TT predicted. Remember that if you have any TT fees taken from your refund, you will get your refund approximately 3 days after your DDD date given through the IRS website. Some people either do not know this or seem to forget year after year. Luckily, I do not have any outstanding bills and no major home projects to work on so my refund is being saved and a little being spent on a cruise in March. I wish everyone a smooth Tax Season!!!

                                                                                    Hi again. So I just got an email from tax act saying my return was accepted by the IRS. Checked WMR and one orange bar, tax topic 152. Started to get excited that things were going smoothly and quicker than expected until I opened my second email from TA. It says my refund was transmitted early and accepted early by the IRS, as part of a test batch. However I will not get my refund early, and should expect my 21 days to start on Jan. 20. If I remember correctly those who were in the test batch last year got sort of screwed because they were ran through the computer, processed to make sure the systems were running properly and then when tax season “officially” opened they were re-processed as if they had just filed and ended up getting refund skater than those not accepted for the test batch. I though the testing would be over since IRS Free File opened today. Hope I didn’t make a mistake. Now starts the waiting and the worrying begins. Not complaining though,it’s kinda become a tradition for me. And I’m glad to see tax topic 152, think that means the initial process found no errors, and return will be here soon. I think. Yea! It’s taxmas 2015. Anyone else get accepted today? Any one use tax act before?

But as we all know there are always people who try and blow smoke up our butts and get us all bent outta shape wondering why we haven’t got ours yet. I hope it’s true and I hope we all see a fast refund cycle this year but just keep in mind that it’s just getting started so don’t freak just yet. .. :)

The TT Facebook rep congratulated her for it. Not sure if it is accurate but that is what is posted.

                                                                                                Last year after a few anxious days of no bars, they showed back up with a DDD listed. I didnt file early last year though but right when the IRS opened up. I’m praying this just means they have worked our returns (those of us with the bar gone) and are waiting to the official open date of filling on 1/20 to push through the next update…Its to early to stress and panic, lets just share information and encourage happy outcomes!!

                                                                                                                  I filed my federal early on TT and it was accepted early for testing. I could not file state because NY was not ready until today. I just tried to file NY and it won’t let me because it says I have to fix my federal return and what I need to fix is the acceptance/file date to at least the 20th. Anyone else with similar issue for state on TT?

So now the anxiety begins. I’m just hoping for 21 days from now. Has anyone ekes filed 1/16 and gotten accepted?

Went from one bar at the top with the status accepted, and refund amount on the left hand side on the WMR website to the following day: Your tax return is still being processed. A refund date will be provided when available. With no refund amount on the left side (it wasnt 0, it just wasnt there) and no bars at all up top. This makes me a little concerned.

I don’t know why some lost bars and some haven’t yet or if they will or won’t but it seemed to have happened last year too from what answers I have received so might matter

Topic 152 is a code that the IRS uses to tell the status of each group of refunds. 151 says you are under an audit. 160 says that your refund has been deposited. 161 says your refund has been mailed out to the recipient. 171 means that the IRS is still processing your refund. The code number 149 is the one you do not want to see. 149 means that your refund has been rejected. And last but not least, THE ONLY NUMBER THAT A PERSON DOES NOT WANT TO EVER SEE IS ” TOPIC 148 “. Topic 148 means that the individual or individuals filing there taxes with the IRS are under a fraud alert and are being subjected to an audit followed by a Identity Fraud, Tax Fraud,and Attempted Larsony of the Government of the United States and is punishable up to 25 years in prison.

I also filed with them last year. I ended up being in the test batch and received a dd of 2/7! It was about 1 month from the time I filed.

On 1/14 we had one bar at WMR. Today 1/15 we have one bar and tax topic 152 at the bottom and it also states refund is still being procesed. Just a little impatient this year :) I’ve noticed many with the tax topic 152 but there bar is gone.

Hope it means that this year too. I hope i get accepted in the test batch. If not i would still get it on the 5th i guess so it shouldn’t be that bad. I just really want to know what’s going on.
