[marie]

@zack

@diane
no more updates. Just as of going back and forth. :-(

[christine]

Did u ever get ur depostit? I have the may be offset also.

[jen]

@bill did you ever get your refund? I know I may have an offset but Mine is the same way with code 846 but no offset code or anything on my transcript. So curious if you ever got your federal tax

[Tanya V]

It took 2 weeks after my refund was approved for the irs to mail our check, and it took 4 days to actually receive it.

[Joanna]

I amended my return and am receiving a refund.. anyone in the same boat? When did your amended return get received and when did you get or refund. thanks. Mine was received April 16th and says it can take 8-12 weeks to process any one have a faster process time?

[Ashley]

@Emily
Yes adjustment means possible decrease or increase in your return for many different reasons. It’s best to call your TA back and ask her what the adjustment is for and whether it decreased your return and if so by how much. I was able to get that info from my TA (that’s about all she honestly knew). But my adjustment was a decrease in my return by $450 due to my taxable income adjustment filed with 1040X. They say you should get a notice in the mail but 3 weeks since the adjustment was made I still haven’t received a notice.

I would check with my TA on Monday. Even though they have a time set to call you back Friday if you need to call everyday or even call the TA hotline. I’ll keep you updated on if I get any new info before Friday.

[Ashley]

*update*
So after getting the Manager on the phone and the Director on the phone my TA called early morning yesterday 5/1 saying that she checked for an update on my acct and my 2012 refund check will be mailed out 5/8 and she believes the 2014 was on hold due to the ID Theft situation but she put in a request to release the refund. Here’s where the BS starts. Her manager tells me something completely diff. The manager states it was possibly on hold due to the 2012 not being processed. But my TA told me last week that the same IRS agent had processed both my 2012 & 2014 return within a week of each other so she doesn’t know what the hold up is for. If they can see that I don’t owe any taxes for either return and the check is scheduled to go out on 5/8 for my 2012 return why are they still holding the 2014?! Nobody seems to know it’s just a guessing game at this point.

[chuck hughes]

Hello people I think I got you all beat I filed on 1/13/2015, I recieved my state within 20days direct deposit, then got a letter stating they IRS was verifying my ID, they could have checked with state they gave me my money, later I recieved a 4464c letter in MARCH, its now May 2,2015, my 60 days are up in a couple of days but was also told i would have to wait up to another 45 days. Im going to go the my local IRS next week good luck.

[Cheryl]

Ok, so my boyfriend and I did taxes together at hnr block on April 15th accepted on the 17th and got state already. TT 152 showed this week, but no update at all. This is insane! As fast as they take your money they cant give it back. I saw the cycle chart, but have no clue if thats actually reliable. I heard if they take longer than 45 days they have to give more money.

[Mik Moy]

Filed in early March – seeing the same 90 BS over a month later!!!

[Emily]

Ashley
I went through the exact thing you went through. I filed on Feb 24 and I had been given the run and I finally got a tax advocate 2 weeks ago. Today my tax advocate left me a message saying the same thing that the irs will be releasing the refund because she see that the adjustment on the account had been made…does that mean that the took out money from my expected refund amount? She also told me the same that she will call me next friday because she needs to monitor it for a week. Now im just wondering if my refund is going to be less. ..I don’t owe anything so I dont know why the would adjust anything. Please let me know if you know what they mean ny adjustment? Thanks!

[Miles]

I can’t believe this website and the state of NJ. I thought it was just my return and got frustrated of no response from the state. I filed on 3/17/15. My son got his refund, a small amount in about a week and half. My refund a little larger, still waiting. That must be the budget cuts we hear about. No one is working in the tax department.

[Jason]

Accepted on 2-13-15. had bars… lost bars around a week later. said return still processing will provide date when available. Yesterday (4-30-15) changed to received your return and it is being processed. GOD I hope I have moved closer to getting a date and my money. can anyone else confirm this please

[Tammy]

I haven’t waited this long for my refund..it is frustrating. I bet they didn’t have to wait for their refund. Lol. I am thinking Louisiana is a crooked state.. Give us our money that we work for this past year. And when u call u have u leave a message…..that a load of crap.

[jenna]

It says my amended tax return was completed and should have recieved my refund April 10 2015 or a notice and I have not recieved it yet is this normal you is there someone I can call?

[torrie]

My transcript changed today to 290 additional tax assesses 20151705 0.00

846 refund issued 05/18/2015
Does that mean I wont get it until then Or that it should be here by then?

[Michelle]

Hi! I’m new to this forum and three weeks ago (April 9th) I received a letter from the IRS stating my injured spouse claim has been approved and I would be receiving a check within a few weeks. So far, I haven’t received it. Does anyone know how long it takes the IRS to issue a check? Is there a number I can call to see what’s going on?

[micki]

I was accepted March 12th, never had bars, had to go thru id verification. It’s been SEVEN WEEKS SINCE I DID ID VERIFICATION AND STILL NOTHING!!! NO BARS NOT JACK. IM NOT UNDER REVIEW EITHER. IM GIVING UP HOPE.

[C. A. M.]

I filed using TurboTax the first week of March. I received a mailed notice on the 13th of April saying they need a copy of my W2. My refund was flagged due to it being an excessive amount. It was excessive because the State decided to take 9.9% from a small (under $30K) stock option exercise — total annual income was less than 1/3 for full tax rate, but they took the max just the same. So now I still wait, May 1st. No one answers phones and no progress on their website. My explanation …. NJ is flat broke and has no money!

[lisa38]

When should I expect my paper check? It was sent to an account I no longer have. It was sent on April 1st. I got a cp49 notice on the 6th but it was dated for 4/13.

[KM]

Still waiting on my refund and am seeing the 5 week processing time. The real kicker: I filed both my taxes and my boyfriend’s taxes on the same day. He owed NJ a small amount and the state withdrew the money in less than 2 weeks. Quick to take, but not to give?

[Ashley]

So bad news guys after the hold systematically fell off another hold was placed on the acct by the case worker processing my return. No additional information needed. Called my TA her manager even got the TA director on the phone they all can see the rerun is finished processing but can’t seem to look at the codes to tell me what this hold is for they are now placing on the account. Gotta love the good ole IRS.

[Toni”]

Called three weeks ago. Spoke with Rep who supposedly “approved” it over the phone. Said that I should receive my refund in 10 days. Still haven’t received it. I got my Federal back on March 10th . . . two weeks after filing. But I just knew after speaking with a rep, and she indicating that it would be 10 days . . . that I really was going to get it in 10 days. I need to stop with the lying. If it’s longer, then say so. Geesh!

[Crystal]

Drew- no I had asked but the irs agent was rude and told me that my transcript has nothing to do with my refund taking so long to receive I don’t think she understood what I was asking about

[Annoyed]

Been 5 weeks and my accountant electronically submitted. The Fed refunded a week after submitting in Feb and the state is BSing all of us. Why are we complaining in this Vacuum? I am going to reach out to our Gov, Senator and state Rep. I recommend you do as well because sharing stories and reading same replies are redundant and will solve nothing. Let’s raise this to the next level!

[Susie]

@Gary,

Did you receive DDD for your refund?

[Anonymous]

Update: Finally can see my transcripts! Refund date of 5/18/15! Accepted 2/18! Only took them 3 months! WMR still says processing…

Does anyone know if that is the date I’ll get my refund? Could I get it sooner?

[zach]

@rayne

Nope. No movement, transcripts look exactly the same as they have for two months now.

@ashley

Let us know what your TA says today. Sounds like you’re about to get your refund.

[Rayne]

Zack I have nothing yet.. My as of date changed again.. May4th to May 12 to May 18th.. Everything else is the same.. Should receive it soon though.. It says is was to be mailed on or before April 29th.. Any luck with yours yet?

[Teri]

My transcript looks almost identical. I will wait here with you to see if anyone answers.

[Lynn]

Thank you, your info has proven accurate for me :)

[lostinlimbo]

contacted IRS, waited for 45 minutes and was given no answer to the hold on my refund.
File IS every year and never have I experienced this long wait, 3-4 weeks the most, in 2012 I rec’d my refund in 2 weeks last year it was divided from an approved debt to state but the partial was refunded in 3 weeks.
Go figure, this is not a good year to be needing the refund back asap.

I also inquired about the updates on the transcripts-accounts it is clear that there is no set days, it updates monday through friday at any time even on saturdays, as far as sundays- no, the system generates an treasury overall upate.

The cycle code is also meaning a slight nothing, it is a processing received code that is digtally stamped on the returns. Like a filing system, but it does have a small meaning of last date to process in a timely manner.

In the IRS handbook – IRM the attachments “schedules” other “forms” decide the processing time for each return when these attachments are noted giving 1-12 weeks added time.
As a golden rule since the first day I filed never file before Jan 30, and never send it in when there are holidays within 7 days.
Next year I will file my IS separately Dec 31 after midnight and on Feb 1 start to prepare them.
Dot my i’s cross my t’s and never erase.
best to all of you!

[Ashley]

@zach

I’m unable to see my transcripts due to the ID theft issue. My TA is set to call me tomorrow with an update so we will see what information I can get from her.

I did some searching on the IRS website and it says the 7 calendar day hold is placed on the account when a hardship has been filed and a manual refund has been processed with TC 840. Whatever this may mean.

[drew]

Did they tell you why your as of date bounced back and forth?

[Crystal]

My as of date change from March 16 to April 27 and now back to march 16 called irs and the agent told me to wait for full 8-10 weeks which would be may 27 this is to much

[Jen]

I did my taxes on Turbo Tax on 2/13 and received my federal within 10 days. I still have not received my NJ taxes yet. Someone told me today that we might not receive them until October. When I spoke to someone they gave me no information except that electronic filing is taking longer this year due to fraud. I am so upset cause I really need this money to get my car fixed. It would be nice if they could give us some kind of information.

[lostinlimbo]

okay I just got off the IRS communication barrier island and there in the surf is a bunch of sea garbage.

[lostinlimbo]

Sadly no change, no update since March 23, 2015. The only change on 3/23 was dates from 3/23 to 4/27. As of today 4/29/2015 Nothing, and no updates.

[zach]

Any updates from anyone? My cp53a was dated February 23rd. In the middle of week 9 right now.

[bjdcounce]

Okay last Thursday my as of date changed to may 4 and as of today it is march 2 why is this

[zach]

@ashley

Did you check your transcripts? Those will be the most accurate way to know when your money is coming.

[zach]

@marie

@diane

Any updates for you ladies yet?

@rayne

Get your check yet? Curious to know how much longer it takes after the IRS actually updates before you have cash in hand.

[Zander]

Every time I try to get the transcripts online, I get an error code 110 after logging in. I haven’t been able to see transcripts at all and its really frustrating. Anyone else having this problem?

We got the notice last week telling us what the injured spouses portion was, but it just says we’ll get our refund in a few weeks. Last year we got the check a couple days after we got the letter. Would like to know how much time passed in between notice and check for those of you that have already got your IS refunds.

(P.S. Letter was dated April 22nd and we got it on the 23rd…no way the mail moves that fast.)

[Zander]

We got our letter last week (Weds.) stating the amount we will get back after our IS form was done with processing. Hoping soon for the check. Last year we got the check a couple days after we got the decision letter.

[jenny]

@mgm6

Thanks for the update I’m sorry to hear that, I have a feeling it’s going to be something like that on my end also but I haven’t had a chance to get through to them, I just don’t understand why they don’t tell us that sort of thing sooner! Good grief… I hope it goes quicker than expected for you, please continue to keep me posted I will too:)

[MGM6]

@jenny
I finally got through last night. I did have one thing that was entered incorrectly. The rep tried to fix it for me but it wouldn’t let her. She noted I would be sending in my amended return. She did say that was what was holding me up. So now we’ll see. Ill probably get my refund at the end of June now since amended returns have to be mailed in. Ugh… I just wish I would have seen it sooner so I could have fixed it earlier.

[theresa]

this is my second year filing IS yea it takes a long time a very long frustrating wait it is! also from what ive been reading in groups the irs is taking their sweet time this year… last year i got a paper check in the mail two days before the start of my 11th week all you can do is keep checking your transcripts which is updated in ‘real time’ unlike WMR which is once daily i was told to check transcripts twice a day once in the morning and once in the evening. also call every day if you want wont hurt lol this is the number ive been calling 1-800-829-0582 i think the ext is 652 good luck….and like i tell myself at least we will have a little spening cash for the nice warm weather :-)

[Anthony O]

hello group!
Im a first time IS filer and I’m beyond frustrated with the IS process. I filed my return Feb. 2nd and accepted on the 3rd. Found out there was a offset and immediately sent in the IS form to my local IRS office within days of finding out. I checked my transcript daily to see if the IRS received it. My local office waited 2 weeks to send it to the regional center. IRS shows they received my IS on Feb. 18. I spoke to several reps and I got different answers about my IS status. I called last week to find out that my IS was being processed but it will take 4-6 more weeks to process the check!?!? WTF! Did you do for the first 8-9 weeks? Anyone else have this experience or is this normal?

[drew]

Yeah, just be patient. Even though I don’t need the 1550 I’m getting back id like to have it to blow on something stupid. Mine was rejected cause I had mine sent to my gfs card even though she followed the steps and rules that were outlined by the company and added me as an account holder Yet it was still rejected. My notice was dated 3/2. I’m just checking every Friday and if I haven’t received another notice or a date when the 10th week is up I’ll give the irs a call. It just seems random as to when people who have name mismatch or aren’t on the account get their refunds.

[Brianda Moore]

F*** the IRS. Seriously. Am I the only one with absolutely no update yet? My DDD was February 3rd!! What the heck is taking so long? It was just a last name mix up nothing that serious. Makes me angry that my husband and myself work hard and pay a ton into taxes just for stuff like this. Shoot I was only getting back $1400! No transcript update no WMR update. This is crazy.

Maybe I’m not doing the tax transcript thing right? You just go to get transcript, sign in, and then go to 2014 account summary right? And download the transcript??

[Paul]

I called the State tax office last week and waited over 30 minutes to speak to someone. She told me they had new security measures in place and could not give a date when I would receive my refund. I filed in mid February – I asked her what are the new security procedures and her response was “I don’t know – they didn’t tell us” – I asked if they were going to add on intereset and her response was “not until after 6 months after the cut-off”. When I asked what the cut-off was she replied “April 15th”. What a racket the State has this year!

[Anonymous]

I filed my Pa taxes on 1/20/2015. I have been getting the message. That they got it on 1/20/2015 and its under a routine review. Can anyone tell me if they had this message also and if so when did they file and when did they receive their refund? Please this is nuts! I call and they tell me every thing looks fine it’s just there is a back log.

[Colleen Pardell]

Received 3/30. No freakin refund yet! AHHH!!

[Ashley]

Can anyone help me out. Filed 2/23 rejected. Called IRS notified fraudulent return been filed. Send in paper return with ID and SSN and ID THEFT verification form filled out. After a month nothing called for the run around called for a tax advocate was assigned one on 3/30. Faxed her all my info including a 1040x. Two weeks pass she calls me on 4/16 to tell me as of 4/15 my refund was released and to give it too 4/30 to have a DD. well still nothing going on 2 weeks. Called today the rep told me acct had been adjusted and refund released except still pending for DD. a little more digging around and he says theirs a 7 calendar day hold on the acct which is procedure after an adjustment has been made before the system issues a refund. He states from wat he see the system released my return 4/23 and the hold should fall off 4/30 and then the system will generate a return. Is this normal? After the hold falls off anybody know how long before my refund is deposited? Thanks.

[regina]

finally received my check today!! thanks everyone for all the info! …. I had a due date of feb 11th and it was bank rejected…..finally….wmr never updated.

[bponce]

Tomorrow will be 13 weeks for me , my transcript shows they received my injured spouse on 1/27/15 , and I do not see any changes at all on the codes, if they even matter? Is it common for it to take this long? Where’s my refund also shows the offset only but no other information. My husband has past due child support and we both worked so I’m even wondering if I’m getting anything back at all.

[Anonymous]

Original Post
I e-filed on March 10th, I received my IRS refund within 2 weeks. NYS was accepted on March 13th, but on March 16th, I got the 90 day review. Today is April 7th and it’s still on a 90 day review. I did not receive any letters and I started an online account with NYS to see if they were going to email me with anything. To this date i’ve received nothing. This board is loaded with folks that seem to have the same problems but mostly in January and February, I am not seeing too many complaints for March. I hope that everyone gets their refunds quickly but misery loves company.

Updated Post
Today is April 27th and I am still on a 90 day review. I still have not received any letters in the mail and the online account that I created through NYS does not have any additional information and no new emails requesting more paperwork.

[Mike]

I filed and was accepted January 21. It is now April 27 and still processing. No letter, nothing. When I can get through to talk to someone I just get told people who used TurboTax are experiencing delays due to fraud. It’s been over 3 months. This is nuts. My federal was approved and disbursed to me in less than 2 weeks.

[AB]

Filed and Accepted 3/19/15
Called on 4/13/15 to inquire about refund. They said my 2013 return was flagged for identity theft so my 2014 return needed to be reviewed. They said it would take 6-8 weeks to be reviewed and another 6-8 weeks to receive the refund. They gave me a call back date of 7/17/15. While on the phone I answered some questions to verify my identity.

I called again on 4/20/15 because I tried to look at my past transcripts and it said to contact IPSU. They said they were finished reviewing my return and it was submitted for processing.

On 4/22/15 WMR went from “Your tax return is still being processed. A refund date will be provided” to “We have received your tax return and it is being processed.”

4/25/15 WMR showed a DD of 4/29/15 :)

[theresa]

Wednesday makes week 9 and still stuck at 570 code and still no change on WMR I efiled return with IS form Feb 25 and it was accepted that day feeling really frustrated seeing people who filed the same day as me and some after and they got 846 codes with dd date called two weeks ago and was told they have 14 weeks to process it! The offset is my husbands I’m ready to be legally separated just so I don’t have to go through this again. This is my second year filing IS last year I didn’t do dd and got my refund in the mail one day before the 11th week…..IRS seems to be taking their sweet time this year!

[Dee]

By any chance did any of you use turbotax.com?

[Tiffani]

@latisha

I was never able to see my Transcripts! I had to get a tax advocate to help me! I think I might be able to order them now, but I don’t want to anything until my money is in my account! I got my info about the code from the Facebook page. There is a guy on there answering people’s questions his name is Thomas Balaton or something like that! Good luck!

[Leonora]

Hello everyone, I have been searching everywhere for answers and finally decided that after going over these transcripts, I noticed a few things. My husband and I file for injured spouse for the past 5 years and they fairly been quick about sending returns. Although it takes longer because it comes in a paper check instead of DD. I have noticed that with these codes and the way the change is that every time you call the IRS, your dates change and you get the 290 code with a different date. I also noticed that the dates are a week at least into the future that it makes me wonder if they generate these dates not by codes but by when the next available agent clocks in. I have been watching these transcripts for the past two weeks and before I got them, I called into the IRS with a wait time of 30-60 minutes and on the days i called i got the 290 code. I called twice and got 2 codes for 290. Although i do have the 846 code now, my refund issue code says may 11, 2015 but was told by IRS agent that it should arrive by the 29th of april. So for those out there still waiting on a paper check with a issue date as of may 11th, it may be on or before that actual date.

[Brianda Moore]

@Nicole

It starts from the date on the notice you received. My notice was dated March 2 so the 8-10 weeks starts then.

[Philip]

The cycle date could be meaningless. My transcripts stil have a cycle date for February.

[Latisha]

@Tiffani
Did you 846 code also have a cycle date? Ours did not. So I am not sure what that means, if anything.

[Latisha]

Bill. Did you ever receive your refund? If so did they take out the offset. We have 846 codes, we also have the code for when they took out for his back taxes. But not any codes as far as debt.

[DeeDee]

Just a thought maybe you should take Barts Thoughts off. He obviously is not on. I saw it coming. His answers were short and to the point. However without diligence like in previous years his input is no good. Thanks Bart for all previous input we appreciate it. You did your due diligence and it’s over. We need a new person on here. Please not Thomas off of your facebook page. He does not have the knowledge. I have been following this page for years and you have to have someone who is willing to put in the time each year and answer the questions in a every changing IRS world. Once again thanks Bart.

[Nicole]

does the 10 weeks go from the date on your Cp53a or the day you got it in the mail??

[Rayne]

Marie.. Mine changed so many times it’s not funny.. My as of Date changed 3-4 times.. processing date did to.. I checked my transcripts every night for the last three months lol.. but after a few weeks no change then checked it Wednesday night hen I got off work n boom… uh uh ohhhh it’s magic ya know.. heh. tired ugh sorry … anyways.. Got an 846 code followed by a new cycle date.. so I’ve been checking the mail every day. GL to you too… let me know of any updates…

[Rayne]

Joshfl904… my cycle date is 20151604… date of April 29th… you should receive your refund between April 30th n May 11th… that’s my best guess looking at what you’ve got up there.. I don’t see any freeze codes or anything.. so hopefully my opinion helps.. GL

[Rayne]

Drew The csr I spoke with told me the as of date will change as they work on your case. Not sure why it would bounce unless they are doing some serious digging. But hopefully you’ll receive yours soon… GL

[Melissa]

I filed on feb3rd. It said accepted then processing and then I got the reference number 9001. I called they said I was all set. Then I got the letter. Went online verified my identity there. I’ve called twice since because wmr doesn’t change. They told me 9 weeks. So the date they gave me was May 20th. When I called the last time they said on April 15th the irs had just accepted my earned income credit and that it said still being processed. wmr hasn’t changed at all. Still no info on my tax refund and something about wait 4-6 weeks after my refund has been mailed in. I e-filed! So I really don’t think there’s anything to do but wait. At least the gentleman I got ahold of told me what they were processing and where it was. Still waiting though.

[Anonymous]

4/25: WMR bars returned with DDD of 4/29 so there is hope. Guess we just have to wait longer these days.
