This is the first time I had to file IS. I can say that this was the worse experience ever. They received the form on 2/18 and on 3/24 the adjustment was completed and I was told today that the issue date is 04/04. I pray that it is in the mail before then. I’m just happy that I no longer have to call those RUDE agents.
i wish i knew which way they were doing ours since we mailed ours in…. ugh…. why can’t they just say on the WMR exactly whats happening instead of “it’s processing”…..
oh okay that make since
My “wages and incomes” transcript updated with my husband’s wage information. Under my name it doesn’t have my income information like his. I am the injured spouse. I hope this means someone is in my file working on something!
Yeah they updated sometime during the day last Thursday and there’s a second cycle # listed below my original one.
Just checked my transcript and see two 846 codes for different amounts. They add up the the original refund amount? What does it mean to get two codes?
Does anyone know if the tracking number at the top of the transcripts mean anything?
the new cycle number was updated Thursday? i cant get into my transcripts at all it sucks
I sent it by mail…I haven’t gotten a DD date I was just thinking the new cycle number on my transcript might give me an idea if it were to be DD…but if it’s supposed to come by check maybe it’ll be any day now because they updated my stuff last Thursday.
@cbp27 did you send your IS form by mail or all together with your return because I havent seen anyone with a DD that sent it by mail
DAng it i was so hoping today was the day and nothing unfortunately i think that this weekend is going to be our best bet unless GOD is watching over us and we get it DD
No news here…mail just ran (very early at that) and no mail for me. So, here’s to hoping for a DD tomorrow. Trying to keep the faith! :/
i have been waiting for you to post today to see because i am at work and mail here doesn’t run for like another 5 hours dummer but now i know not to get my hopes up.
IT HAS to come soonHello… nothing new to report… nothing in the mail and nothing in the bank… :( I can’t wait for this to be over it’s the most frustrating thing I have ever had to deal with…. anyways have a good day!!
Had a DDD of 3-26. It showed up fine on 3/26 in credit union account. Same day, there is an entry removing that amount.
First it was IRS TREAS 310 – REF
Then it was REV IRS TREAS 310-REFirs.gov shows no errors in processing. Credit Union says it’s not them and we need to contact IRS.
Any ideas what’s going on?
@Chaddox I was recently active on another site, and after spending a few weeks discussing and tracking it, we determined it was useless and ment nothing. The dates didn’t seem to hold any pattern whatsoever, even after we tracked the dates from those who had already received the return.
If your obsessive compulsive about waiting for your returns, like I am, I use this to keep track: http://www.timeanddate.com/date/duration.html Makes figuring out the exact days much easier!
For me, today is day 54, seven weeks. The good news is, 11 weeks is only 23 days away so at least I can call and get my referral on the 24th! Something to look forward to if it goes that long
It doesn’t make since the way they do our money as if to say we will send it when we are ready. and the funny thing is you can’t talk to a live rep.
It looks like new comments are but replies are going to the original posts location
ay yi yi
New Comments are supposed to appear at the top; I am not sure why some are not, but am looking into it. Thanks for the heads up and your patience with our growing pains.
Yes mine updated march 28th and at the top of the page next to as of date went from -xxxx.xx to $0.00
Does anyone know the bank for Tax act
@Chaddox Yes, you were able to file early, however the IRS did not began processing returns until 1/31. So that is when the 11 weeks starts.
Me you and Treestone all have the same info so fingers crossed that we do get it tomorrow that would be AMAZING!! BUT from my understanding if we get a check that means we wont see it till at least Saturday because from what i believe to be correct they only cut checks on Fridays
mine says no records found :( did it work for you
Why did they do that? Is it like a lottery? Do they just randomly accept people early each year?? That kinda rubs me the wrong way. Why would they tell everyone 1/31 and then PSYCHE! accept a bunch early?? Did you eFile or mail it?? Explain to me how it works bc I’ll file ASAP next year.
this year, I ended up having to wait til 2/6 anyway b/c I used TT. Somehow I ended up in cycle 805 where everyone else who filed that day seems to be in 605. I might try mailing the IS form next year. It seems to be the consensus that it’s faster that way anyhow.
@Chaddox
I am going by the IRS website information:
WASHINGTON — The Internal Revenue Service today announced plans to open the 2014 filing season on Jan. 31 and encouraged taxpayers to use e-file or Free File as the fastest way to receive refunds.The new opening date for individuals to file their 2013 tax returns will allow the IRS adequate time to program and test its tax processing systems. The annual process for updating IRS systems saw significant delays in October following the 16-day federal government closure.
The government closure meant the IRS had to change the original opening date from Jan. 21 to Jan. 31, 2014. The 2014 date is one day later than the 2013 filing season opening, which started on Jan. 30, 2013, following January tax law changes made by Congress on Jan. 1 under the American Taxpayer Relief Act (ATRA).
The IRS cautioned that it will not process any tax returns before Jan. 31, so there is no advantage to filing on paper before the opening date. Taxpayers will receive their tax refunds much faster by using e-file or Free File with the direct deposit option.
Yours would be the first I have heard of early filing allowed.
For those of you who filed with TurboTax here is a link to the bank they release your funds through. https://cisc.sbtpg.com/mb/tp/logon.aspx You need the same information as you do for WMR, and it will let you know if they have received your refund for release yet. Helpful if you can’t get into your transcripts or feel like WMR won’t update for you.
Still nothing in the mail last night BOOO
Still no update on mine as of this morning.
I also got a 846 of 4-14 but WMR changed to show a DD of April 2nd. let you guys know if it’s in then. filed 2-3 accepted same day. -as of date- changed to 4-14 when I got 846 then to 4-21 after WMR updated, Hope it’s in there tomorrow!
Can someone please give me a number for a ta? I’m hoping it’s just an April Fools joke but I don’t think it is, thanks in advance. Still 2/24 as of date 3/31.
Hi everyone, I have been just watching on here for weeks now. Anyway I filed on 1-25 with turbo tax got accepted on 1-28 and in the first week of feb. My wrm updated with a dd date of 2-12 but the amount had been changed so I filled out the the IS form and sent it in on 2-9. On 2-12 part of my refund was in my bank. the beginning of March My transcript updated to IS received on 2-12 ( I sent it certified mail), then no change for weeks then on March 25 my transcript changed and showed the amount they has held put back and it showed a notice issued on 4-7 and refund issued on 4-7, as of date was 4-14,but yesterday (March 31) I check the mail and there was my refund in check form! My wmr never updated after going back to processing…
So I know someone here explained the whole “as of date” but not sure who it was. What if your as of date passes? What does that indicate?
wow if the income is all yours, may I suggest next year not putting her on your return, since it is her debt and simply file head of household. The change in the deduction amount from the different filing status would be compensation for not claiming her as an exemption… plus you will get it in the 21 day time frame.
Filing joint with form 8379 (IS) accepted on January 28th…. last code on transcript is the 570 pending further action. I finally called today just to make sure there were no issues or that I was not lost in the cracks of the system. Turns out all is well and my return is sitting in the injured spouse department just waiting to be released. However the woman said they have the full 11 weeks to do so. The 11 weeks does not start until February the 6th when they actually started accepting IS forms. So guess it could be anytime till the latest she said was April 24th…. so we shall see…. keep yah posted.
Saros the irs accepted a batch of early filers, I was accepted by irs on Monday the 27th of January which makes today 9 weeks. And this was confirmed by them when I called. My brother in law was also one of them and got his return on the second of February.
P.S. I see people stating they are in week 9. Unfortunately, that is impossible. The earliest you can start counting is when the IRS started accepting returns, which is 1/31. Today is 3/31, which is 59 days, or 8 weeks rounded down. No one is in week 9. :)
I’m also new to filing injured spouse. Had to amend after I found out they were offsettin due to wife child support.. Amended return was received on 2/18 and says it was adjusted on 3/14, haven’t got the notice yet.. Checked my account transcripts and I’m getting the following codes: 150 2/24; 766 4/15; 768 4/15; 846 2/24; 898 2/24; 899 2/24; 290 3/24; 971 2/18; 971 2/18; 898 2/24..
I’m just wondering if I’m going to be getting my money back? All the income reported was mine and I’m not responsible for her debt and not in community property so I should right?
It just looks like they’ve applied it to the debt, unapplied it, applied it again and issued the refund all on 2/24 but then something weird is going on with the 290 on 3/24 (after the date the wmar says my account was adjusted and the 290 is at $0). Am I just over thinking it and just need to wait for something else to show up?Well still waiting :( 846 of 4-14 but WMR just says processing. I efiled January 30th but IS form was put on transcript 2-14…..I’m really hoping it comes this week and I don’t have to wait until the 14th :(
You may be correct, but my real issue is not when the 11wks started but that it re-started. I filed the same way this year as I did last year, no additions or subtractions. While this is only my 2nd year filing IS form, nothing I’ve read referred to resetting of 11wk processing period. I haven’t gotten a letter indicating there were any issues and my transcript does not reflect any changes. Hopefully, I will have some answers or clarification by the end of the week. If anyone has information about a “re-set”, please enlighten me. Thanks
They deducted 1200.00 from my Federal return due to “unpaid” taxes in 2011. Which is crap because I’ve never not received a refund. Turns out the program I used only sent in my federal that year. Anyway, I filed on February 2, 2014 and it was accepted within a few days (by both)
I called the 2.5 weeks ago and was told that I should have received the “90 day” letter, as well. That the money they deducted would also be returned to me (because I went ahead and finished the return for 2011. In addition to that, I would also be getting an additional $90.00 for my 2011 return. However, the reimbursement along with the $90 would only be sent out after my 2013 refund was approved/sent out for payment.
Last week the status of my refund went from ” has been received but processing has not been completed.” to “pending approval” and today when I checked on it, it was back at “has been received but processing has not been completed.”
Anyone else ever hear of something like that happening? ((insert angry face))
Has anyone received a paper check or a DD without their transcripts updating at all?
Afternoon all,
Mail just ran, no check :| No change on WMR or transcripts. However, there was a second cycle date listed on my transcripts that I noticed when they updated: 20141305. That generates to Thursday March 27th. Everything I’ve read says to add 4 bus. days for DD, which would be Wednesday April 2nd. So, if I don’t see a DD on Wednesday I’ll assume a paper check won’t be far behind. But, if the paper check arrives on Saturday the 5th or later, I won’t know until Monday the 21st because we’ll be out of state. Would be nice to see it before we leave though! I’m keeping us all in my prayers.
I’m new to the injured spouse filing. Looking at my transcript for this year shows code 150 (Tax Return filed) 2/24/14, code 846 (Refund issued) 2/24/14, Code 898 on 2/24/14. Then code 971 shows twice as IS form received, and then as Amended tax return or claim forwarded for processing also code 971 dated 2/21/14 (this strikes me as weird since I mailed it AFTER my tax refund was offset and it was def. after they accepted my return. Anyway, now my transcript is showing code 977 Amended Return Filed as of 2/21/14.
The where’s my amended return status that the IRS has says that it was received 2/21/14 and was adjusted on 3/14/14. This is what it tells me:
Your account was adjusted on March 14, 2014. Within three weeks, you will receive a notice that explains the adjustment.
This Friday April 4th will be the 3rd week…anyone actually GET the “notice” within the 3 weeks or am I hopelessly stalking my mailman.
Seems like if the Amended return has been filed then there should be some info?
Saros is correct. I finally got thru to someone, and when told the 11 weeks BS, I asked when the 11 weeks started. She said it typically takes 3 weeks for a normal return + 8 additional weeks for the IS form for 11 weeks total (for eFiled, add 3 weeks if mailed in). She did say some are done faster, but unless there any unrelated issues, it should always be done in that 11 week time period. 7 years of filing this form, and only one year took longer, but that was due to Education Credit issues they had last year.
@winstoncoupons From my experience your TA is incorrect. If the 11 weeks starts from the day the IS dept receives the return, that would be the first time in 4 years of filing I have heard that. Every single agent I have called have stated it starts the day your return is accepted by the IRS. I’ve never heard, on any forum or from anyone else the 11 weeks starts the day the IS dept gets the return. He might be new or stalling.
I e-filed with Turbo tax on 3/22 it was accepted 3/24. It still just says accepted. I tried to run a transcript yesterday and it said it had no record of me filing a 2013 return???? Should I call the IRS. I’m nervous now as Turbo tax shows that 53% of those who filed on the 22nd have received their refunds. Last year it took about 8 days for me to receive my refund and even an amended return took only 2 weeks via snail mail last year??
I am not exactly sure. I think they are a group within the IRS. If you qualify for their assistance based on individual circumstances, they can figure out what the issues if any are and expedite getting those issues addressed to get your refund. They can not circumvent any IRS laws or rules (that is what the dept personnel said to me) but can work within the system to get things done. I think? That’s what I read. I will update my progress if any as it happens.
@winstoncoupons well that could be good news. What does a tax advocate do?
So the previous rep transfers me to IS dept (supposedly) and after being on hold for about 20 mins, I get to another gentleman. I ask him about the 11 wks from 3/20 comment from previous rep. I slips and says that he’s not sure where the previous rep got that date from because they are not even suppose to pull the account up if it has not been 11 wks. He gives me the 11 wks from acceptance spill but I convince him to take a look to see what’s up with the 3/20 date I was just given. After some minutes on hold, he comes back on the line and confirms that I will have to wait 11 wks from 3/20 despite having filed 1/31 because I was pulled out of the system for a “random review” and then put back in the system and my time re-set. I don’t even know what that means. I got not letter about an audit, a random review or anything for that matter. I was thrown. Really? So I called and asked for a tax advocate. Tax advocate dept. informed me that the normal 11wk waiting period starts on the date the IS for is received in the IS department, not the date it is accepted by the IRS, but they would assess my situation for Tax Advocate assistance. I will update you guys when I hear something, good or bad.
Has anyone been able to get through to someone in the IS department. There has to be something that we can do or say to make them move quicker.
I checked the WMR yesterday and received a notice that “Your refund has been reduced to pay a past due IRS tax obligation.”
However, the refund that they are sending me is exactly what I expected to receive…and I know of no “past due IRS tax obligation”. Has anyone else seen this issue?
@TreeStone OH MAN :( DANG IT i am trying so hard to buy a new car and i need 1400$ down right now i have a 98 with 197,000 miles and with 3 kids two in baseball things just arent working with room on top of the fact that it needs a ton of work well really we just need to retire it all together and i have a bill that if i dont pay it off in the next 23 days we get his with 2800$ in interest so I am just HOPING and PRAYING that it comes in with in the next week or so cause if it isnt i dont know what the heck i will do
@hatewaiting… my mail just ran and nothing… I am heartbroken… i am still crying….. but i have to keep moving… at least i am not alone!! let me know if anything happens… praying for us all!!
Winstoncoupons not really sure why he said 11 weeks from that date. It is 11 weeks from the recieved date. Mine is the same as yours. I called this morning and hit the 11 week speech. So we are at week 9 now. Gotta be soon (I hope)!
I filed on 1/31 with IS form and was accepted the same day. The transcript has a 570 with date 02/24/2014. I called IRS this morning and gentleman says I have to wait 11 weeks from 3/20. That just does not sound right to me. I though IS was 8 to 11wks from acceptance date if electronically filed and about 14 if mailed. Any thoughts while I wait on hold to speak to IS department (in hopes that I get someone who can enlighten me)?
@TreeStone I will keep you both up to date even if i get it i will post on here so you know its only 813 am here and my mail doesnt run till 430 here lol i have also been stocking the mail man my husband was walking back from the mail box on Saturday and said he wont be checking the mail anymore because he was so disappointed well now he knows how i feel haha
@hatewaiting… I haven’t been able to get mine for weeks… but the WMR changing the same day as cbp27 i suspect my transcript looks like hers… all 3 of us with the same dates… her transcripts updated last Thurs. if Im not mistaken… i have high hopes for this week…. fingers crossed!! Not one of us on the WMR have a DD date… i think the update was for a paper check… but that’s my opinion…
@TreeStone ya the three of us have the same stuff going on even our dates lol and i have tried a million times to get my trans. and i have only been successful one time stupid thing drives me crazy lets hope we see it in the mail today or tomorrow. From my understanding from past post they only send out checks on Fridays.
@hatewaiting… I was talking about the transcripts… duh… I am so worried and waiting… but they are doing something that’s for sure!
@hatewaiting my WMR changed to the same message Saturday as well as cbp27… i still cant get into mine… scroll down and see what hers was… if yours isn’t working… i suspect a check in the mail soon… cross your fingers
Hey everyone so I got up and check my WMR which i havent been doing because i went in the IS form after they had already taken my refund and the WMR said that it was taken for a past dept and now today it says its being processed and it is the original amount that I was told I would be getting back. By chance would I get it all back even though I live in a community state?
Ok, efiled and accepted 2/6. 570 code 3/3 as of date 3/31….
So I decide to call this morning. Wait time between 15 and 30 minutes, YAY, must be my lucky day…
Was on hold closer to 45 minutes, my hand actually fell asleep…
Then the awaited for click, a recorded voice said “Please hold”, the music intensified like a Broadway show was about to start. This is it, they are about to answer!!….
And then “we’re sorry, your call can not be completed at this time, please try again later” CLICK….
The cats ran due to the string of expletives I was shouting out, I’m amazed my phone withstood the throw across the room…FML
I guess no answers for me today :(
I’m happy people are getting their refunds, just very disappointed every time I read that someone who filed after we did, received their refund before us. I guess my IS processor either contracted malaria or went on vacation.Anyone out there this year who efiled both with TurboTax and asked for DD get an email saying they saying they should be getting a deposit soon? I had that happen last year and it was deposited that morning. So I keep checking my email too. My morning goes: check email-nothing, check transcripts-nothing, check WMR-nothing. :-)
ughhhhh. Really guess what nothing has changed I know everyone is shocked by this. I just want some kind of update hopefully soon. 570 and 150 codes still say as of 2/24. Please let this money come thru soon my form was completed last tuesday. Here is hoping for an update to WMR or transcript sometime this week.
Well 40 minutes on the phone just to hear the 11 week speech again. I never mention the is form but never get anything other than blah blah 11 weeks blah blah. I guess I’m going to stop stalking this week. I’m at week 10 filing, 9 after received so I really hope it’s coming to an end soon.
Still no updates on mine. codes still show as
150
806
766
768
570 as of 2/24.. ArggMy experience with state return was when I got the letter telling me that it was kept there was a part to fill out that is for the injured spouse to fill out and send it.
Our State of MD refund was intercepted for debts that I owed from a period before we were married. Can my wife now file the state of MD. Injured spouse form . To get her portion of the refund returned to her. Also would she file that State of Md injured spouse form by itself or with a copy of the MD state return that was already filed.
Can someone please help me
Thanks everyoneI did my taxes on March 22nd they were approved March 24th then nothing then and about 12:30 in morning today I checked wmr it said refund sent. I was excited until I woke up at bout 8am and the status bar was back doan to refund approved??? makes no sense to me.,my dd supposed to be April 2nd but I won’t hold my breathe after reading all this lol. has anyone else had there status bar change like that
FINALLY!!!!!!! After waiting 6 weeks they have received my return and are processing it. The total looks less than what they said it would be but I’m going to wait until they are done processing it. At least we are getting something back! Won’t have the money until after vacation sadly, Oh well. Whew!
Finally able to access my transcripts…. always said my info didn’t match. I added the middle initial with no space and it worked!! No help though. 570 with a 3/17 date..still waiting.
HI Everyone,
First time on here, first time with any of this. I’ve read the threads and got my transcript yesterday. I am really confused about why I show two 898 codes dated 2-24-14. I have the 846 dated 2-24-14 also. Worried that it shows those 898 twice, like they approved our refund and then sent it back. Any help or encouragement would be awesome.
Thanks!!
