Where’s My Refund? is available almost all of the time. However, our system is not available every Monday, early, from 12:00 am (Midnight) to 3:00 am Eastern Time.
Our Change of Address and Refund Trace features are not available during the following times (Eastern Time):
Sunday 12:00 am (Midnight) to 7:00 pm
Monday 12:00 am (Midnight) to 6:00 am
Tuesday 3:30 am to 6:00 am
Wednesday 3:30 am to 6:00 am
Thursday 3:30 am to 6:00 am
Friday 3:30 am to 6:00 am
Saturday 3:30 am to 6:00 am
and 9:00 pm to MidnightThe IRS will forward all validated returns to the states. What that means is the IRS checks your state return to make sure it has the same filing status, number of dependents, same address and socials and same income as the federal return. And that is only if you file state with your federal return. I don’t I file my state through my state website. marylandtaxes.com.
@bonclair but you still have to send it to the Feds first the irs clearly states they review your state taxes and if everything checks out it’s sent to state I just checked and Maryland sends to Feds just because u send federal first then state it still goes to Feds I’m 10000% sure
The IRS doesn’t do your state. Once your Federal is accepted then the state is okay to accept. But the IRS isn’t doing the state taxes, the tax programs do that. It is up to the state to check everything. My state Maryland lets us do our state taxes for free so I never submit mine with my federal.
Accepted 1/24 no ddd, one bar, tax topic 152, 2013* non filer,Memphis hub, used turbotax, “SBTG” shows fees only,……the irs twilight zone.
Is there anyone that lives in PA that has had there state accepted?
It does mean irs checks your state before forwarding it
@steph will you go through that link I posted see what you get from that reading more into you maybe right I’m getting now that the irs actually checks your state then forwards it to state if everything is approved
I’m with you all on its happening in the background…Time for me to stop obsessing and get some homework and studying done before the game…If the IRS don’t kill me my last semester of grad school might..
@jen1972. Its not proven that some of the hubs were down, some of us are just thinking that since it seems all to common that a lot of the people that didn’t get a ddd was from hubs in Philly and Memphis
Yeah that’s another good point there is a few in between that have said they got Ddd that had Memphis and pa I don’t know really what to think of that either
@Mrz Terrell.. I know a lot of the reps better brace themselves for tomorrow because the phone lines will be flooded with calls unless they give us our DDD’s tonight
@Steph336: I just read that your state cannot be accepted until the IRS accepts your federal. Until 5 this morning my state was pending with TT and then it changed to accepted but i didnt get any changes in my federal on WMR. Other people in WV got DDDs for federal along with their acceptances from WV state. I’m starting to think you are right about our info just not showing on the WMR. I am praying ours will update tonight. By the way, where did you guys find the info about the hubs being down? I cant find anything when i Google it.
@Kaci. I think it was half way successful, but there was clearly a problem with some of the hubs and it has effected some of us early filers
On the TT FB page there are so many people who are saying they don’t have a federal DDD but their state taxes are being accepted. So weird!! I can’t wait until the IRS opens tomorrow. Maybe one of us will get a rep who will actually be kind enough to give us some answers.
Does anyone else find irony in that the “test batch” wasn’t successful? ha ha ha…anyone? lol
I was accepted on the 26th, I’m in with the Philly Hub. I think the same thing that happened to the Memphis hub might have happened to a couple other Hubs. It is also very logical to say that if your state was accepted then more then likely we might have a ddd already and its not showing. I know you cant file for your state unless your Federal is done
Idk I’m from va my state has been pending and still is I did refile my state through tax slayer because Tt wasn’t sending it but as I said it’s still pending Idk what to really think of this we need godmachine to tell us what his contacts had to say
Same here…I thought being first in line we would stay first in line and here all us 1/24’ers are waving at the passers by…Wouldn’t they have to “force” ours through to keep us in line…
Steph there was deff an issue with 2 diff hubs I found info that states you only need your state accepted not approved so there goes that http://www.irs.gov/Tax-Professionals/e-File-Providers-&-Partners/Federal-State-e-file-Question-and-Answers-For-Tax-Professionals I’m thinking when the system went down it affected TN and PA and they just recently processed us and that’s why everyone’s state started accepting at once from the Memphis hub
Can’t order transcripts says info doesn’t match…I’m really frustrated..
I was accepted on 1/24 and was bummed that I could not order transcripts and am now locked out for 24 hours. I really am happy that people are getting DDDS. I just thought being in the first group accepted that we would be first in getting refunds. I have had the wmr tool not show any progress but woke up to my refund posting in my bank that Friday. I am hoping that is the case the year too.
Just wanted to chime in and let you guys know I filed on the 21st with tt and accepted on the 27th. I received my ddd of feb 6th this morning. I was able to retrieve my transcripts yesterday as well. I am in the Memphis area. But I don’t know if only Memphis area people are ran through their hub or everyone. Hopefully this sheds some kind of insight of whats going on. Also I had a simple return just eic and ctc
My WV state just got accepted this morning too. I still don’t know which hub i’m in though because it locked me out telling me info was incorrect and I know it wasnt. I was also accepted by IRS on 1/24.
also my bar hasnt changed and tax topic 152 is still there
1/24 acceptance no trans no update on wmr or anything ……memphis hub
Well i was accepted 1/26 so just 2 days after you guys. Memphis is the hub on our 2013* return. Showing N/A for account transcripts. We had the education delay last year. It is always something I swear. I like your theory and would be thrilled if that is the case…. Makes sense. I just got a text that my state was accepted today, AZ. I am not sure about their laws about accepting once federal is approved
I’m a 1/24er filed with TT on 1/10. But I am a Philly PA HUB. Tried for Transcripts says no record of filing. WMR shows 1 bar with the generic 21 days and the tax topic of 152.
I filed on 011514 w/ TT. Accepted on 012614 and I’m in the same boat as you. My letter of non filing is from PA though, so I’m not too sure about the Memphis theory thing.
Live in VA state was accepted overnight…There maybe some truth to your logic…I’m just super bummed
Filed 1/10 with TT
Accepted 1/24
Only one bar in WMR with generic 21 days and Tax Topic 152.
EIC, CTC, and Education Credit.Ok so here is my theory on why some of us 1/24ers have seen no update on WMR or with ordering transcripts. It seems most of us 1/24ers, with no DDD, are coming from the Memphis hub. I remember on the 24th that the EMS system went down for a couple of hours…I would be willing to bet this happened at the Memphis hub and it has effected the way we are updated in WMR and transcript systems. Furthermore, I believe that many of us actually do have a DDD, we just aren’t showing on WMR and won’t show on WMR. One reason why I believe I do have a DDD but am not showing up on WMR is because when the news started rolling in last night, people from the state I live in that were getting their refunds approved at the same time were also commenting how the state return finally got accepted. So, I went to check and see if mine was accepted and BAM it was all at the same time that theirs was. I believe NC does not accept state returns until the federal has approved. Now all of this is my theory so I am not going to say it is 100%…but it is what I currently believe as far as why many 1/24ers from the Memphis hub saw no update. Please comment and add your story so we can see if this pans out at all.
I did my return for state 1/31 and still showing pending. I was accepted 1/29 for federal and have ddd for 2/6. I don’t know what’s going on with Ms.
Has anyone from the Mississippi area been accepted for their efile of State Tax Refnd? Mine is still showing pending for a while now.
Well, hopefully this year moves faster than last year. When did you file/get accepted?

Gotta love the waiting game.Last year filed and accepted 2-4-13 with Turbo tax
Approved 2-15 with DD of 2-21
Refund deposited 2 days early on Netspend Card on 2-19Read about early filers last year getting approved by 2-2 with a DD of 2-7 and getting money on Netspend Card on 2-5. Hope mine goes that way.
Filed 1/26/14 with Turbo
Accepted 1/27
I’ve seen many posts of people filing on the 30th last year and getting a DD of 2/7 by 2/2 so I hope mine works out that way this year.
Last Year filed Same Way.
Filed and Accepted 2/4
Got a DD of 21 on 2/15
Refund Deposited on Netspend Card on 2/19I have a paychek plus card, issued by Metabank. I have gotten so many different answers , and it’s driving me nuts. I filed a married filing jointly, and was wondering if anyone has ever had a joint refund successfully deposited onto that card. Every time I call the number on the back of my card I get different answers. My name is on the account, my husband is an authorized user. My name is also first on our return.

Got a transcript and it said I actually started processing March 11 (called and verified that w/ agent)
Transcript Cycle # 20130805
Got a DD last Saturday for July 3rdSo hopefully this helps. Bc they “Transcript Theory” is kind of off..lol
Also, last yr I filed Feb 23, accepted hours later
DD of June 8
Cycle date was 20121305My story…Submitted taxes through TurboTax on 01/30/13. Finally accepted on 02/14/13 due to Education Tax Credit delay. Checked WMR for a few weeks and it stayed on processing. Checked again on 03/11/13 and received the dreadful notice that refund has been applied to past tax obligations. Filled out form 8379 on 03/13/13 and mailed it in. Form recieved by IRS on 03/15/13. Waited patiently until 05/10/13. I called on 05/10/13 and sat on hold for 1 hour. Finally spoke to an agent and he said that the system shows that all needed paperwork has been received, my case just hasn’t been assigned to anyone yet. He said that he’d go ahead and assign it to himself and take care of it that night or Monday. I called back on 05/31/13 and another agent researched my case and all paperwork that is needed is there but it hasn’t been assigned to anyone >.< He took my number and put in a referral. However, I’m not holding my breath since he said “they” have up to 45 days to call me back.
Called TA for a referral and was contacted last Friday. We we’re told our money was “stuck” in the system. TA put a code in to force our refund to post back to the IRS from Financial Management and that it had to be done by June 4. Hoping it won’t take to much longer to be direct deposit to our account. TA said our injured spouse was assigned to someone over 6 different times. This has been a very frustrating process!!!!
Hi All,
I had filed electronically form 8379 by accident and did not realize this until I was told by IRS rep that I had this form which would take 11-14 weeks. My accepted date is March12th – It is close to 12 weeks and still waiting. Please let me know what actions I should be taking, not sure if I should order any transcripts and done by others in this forum – My IRS refund status shows as still being processed. rgds, prithvi
Hello, I thought I’d share my latest IRS drama and see if anyone has some advice.
We mailed our tax and injured spouse end of Feb. Injured spouse however didn’t show up until 4/4. Not quite sure how that happened but we we’re told that it was being processes as being received separate and was given an 8 week time frame. Called today and spoke with someone in injured spouse and was told that in the beginning of may our last names kicked out a red flag since they are different…..keep in mind we have been filing this way for 7 years. Then we are told that our 8 week wait will actually start today. Does anyone else think this is ridiculous? Time and time again we have been told that there are no problems with the injured spouse……time and time again we are told that we should have our money today. Does anyone think that the tax advocate service might be of some help?
We don’t live in a community property state and my spouse is the only one that works. I just feel like we have been given the run around time and time again and it is soooooo frustrating!!!!!
The trouble with reading posts to get an idea of *how long* it will be is that people who have received their refund aren’t inclined to post because they are satisfied. Thus, the picture one gets from reading posts is skewed to the unfortunate side.
There is a poll on one site, but I can never get result. Does anybody know of a results-of-poll page?Hi everyone,
I’ve been lurking for about a week now. We filed 1/29, accepted not long after (I’m blanking on the date I think it was 2/3) and on 2/17 WMR changed to say it had been intercepted and sent to debts.
We filed IS 2/18. A week later we received the letter that basically said they had what they needed, don’t call unless you have a question, we’ll be in touch etc.We’ve been semi-regularly checking WMR but not obsessively because we expected we’d get a letter from the IRS. Randomly I checked on 5/19 and it changed to “We have received your tax refund and it is being processed.”
I called the offset number and it still says it’s been allocated to debts (totally the entire refund).
We’re going on 16 weeks from when we originally filed our return, 14 weeks from filing IS.
@lisa120484 I dont know your situation but you might want to try what I did because I am horrified to say they had an error in calculating my numbers! Read entire story below!
@KissMyAsthma thank you for your advice and I think my husband was on the same page as you although I had given up the idea of spending another hour or two on the phone with IRS.
Got home from work Tuesday and hubby was already on the phone with IRS for 45 minutes, he had already been transferred once. He said its best I talk to the next operator cause I prepped our taxes and know our numbers better. The operator was extremely rude and semi racist. She told me several times “I will repeat this one more time since you dont understand english well” “That is not a proper sentence” etc. I have an accent but most people around me assume I have been raised in the US since I am fluent at speaking English, so this was new to me. I think that was her strategy to make me feel bad and hang up. She kept throwing three numbers at me (which I realized probably appear on her computer screen and that is all she knows about my account) I kept repeating “the math doesnt add up!” how can someone who earned 89% of the income get less taxe refunded to them than someone who only made 11% of the income. She said its the education credits. I said we already subtracted that and it still has over a grand missing. She kept subtracting the education credits TWICE! Eventually when I said lets work the sheet out together she said she will transfer me over to another department “the ADVANCED Injured Spouse”. But she continued snickering and laughing saying “trust me you are not going to get a dime more. You owe a debt and you must pay it”
My luck at the other department was much better. The lady on the phone was really nice. She said she doesnt trust other people’s math and will do it all over again. She also had access to all my documents. Within 2 seconds of looking at it I kid you not she said “you have been underpaid, there is a mistake” She tells me I am getting well over a grand that was taken by mistake. Now here is the issue they need to fix something in their system IT related which will take 3 to 4 weeks. Then they will reenter my numbers and send me the difference. The lady was kind enough to give me her name and ID number and said she will put enough notes in my account so people will know what is going on.Sorry for the long story but you can see how horrible it is that someone is rude to us and mistreating all of us and guess what they don’t even know what they are talking about. Their basic math is messed up and they cant add up numbers! I’ll say everyone please rework and verify your numbers!
Also the old nice lady said they didn’t touch most of the Injured spouse cases till May! So there you go it is confirmed that they just didn’t touch them! So much for telling us to wait 11 weeks! Might as well say we dont touch them instead of us making us wait on hands and knees everyday!
Hi everyone,
Just wanted to update… I checked WMR and it stated our refund was processed and we would be receiving our refund today and if it is not received by the 27th then to call our bank. I called the offset line after checking WMR to see how much was offset to the VA on my husband’s behalf and it gave two amounts… the amounts totalled our entire refund! So I guess it’s safe to say we wont get anything back. So depressing! Has anyone else experienced this or is there still hope we might get something? This was our first, and hopefully last, year filing injured spouse. In a way I guess it’s good if they take our whole return, though we could have used it definitely, but at least the debt will get paid off quicker (just trying to think positive), but were still pretty upset about it.
@s_m i would call them. ask for them for the following be. this is straight from their website. if you want to google it i typed in ” irs irm” then select “refund offset”. its like a manual for their people to follow. good luck
When the taxpayer disagrees or does not understand the injured spouse allocation by the IRS:
If you work at a remote call site, and you don’t have access to CIS to view the Form 8379 Allocation Worksheet or do not work injured spouse allocations, transfer the call to 92035 Application 35 if it meets the criteria in paragraph 8 below.
If you work injured spouse allocations, verify the Form 8379 Allocation Worksheet. After verifying the allocation is correct, send the taxpayer a copy of the Form 8379Allocation Worksheet. The Form 8379Allocation Worksheet should be on the CIS case file, if not pull the Form 8379 Allocation Worksheet.
So I got my refund!!! The date vanished and two days later it was in my hand which was Friday 17th of May.
Now I have to ask you all’s opinion on this one. My husband had education credits and his income was only 5% of our total income. I was expecting a certain amount after they take away the entire education credit. Turns out they took the same amount of refund away as the amount that got refunded to me. My confusion is how can someone who made 95% of the income gets the same amount as the person who made 5% and gave up their share to the govt? Am I being insane here? I am planning to contact IRS and ask them for an explanation but a part of me wants to just give up. What do you all think?
Thanks for the hope KissMyAsthma I have been thinking the same thing myself but cant hardly bring myself to wish too much… I just don’t understand why they do things so many different and confusing ways….????
TreeStone, from what i have heard when that message about refund date… is nolonger there you should be getting ur refund in a matter of days. it seems some people will be getting DD tomorrow. hopefully u will be part of that group.
FYI the irs will be closed this friday, their call center and all their agents. no returns or anything for that matter will be processed that day.
Yesterday was 2 weeks that my case was closed. I called last thursday and she told me that it was closed 5/6 and then sent to the computer 5/7 so today will make it 2 weeks today that it was in the computer. It was supposed to give me a DD date by today. Saturday my WMR changed and the italics about the date will be posted when available was gone and it said my return was being processed……. STILL NOTHING!!!!!!! Has anyone else dealt with the WMR not changing right? What does it mean?
Update:
Efiled & accepted: 02/28
IS form mailed: week of 03/11
WMR changed from offset info to “processing”: 05/11
Rcvd letter from IRS stating new refund amount: 05/16 (letter also said check would arrive in 2-3 weeks)
Check rcvd from IRS: 05/20WMR is still showing “processing” and was never updated again. I had originally asked for my refund to be DD but received a check instead. Good luck to all of those still watiing!!
Well, at some point over the weekend, or Friday, the offset line is now showing the amount being sent to the DOE, and a date of the 22nd. I am hoping that that means that we will also receive our portion of the refund on the 22nd. Here’s hoping! So glad to hear that the battle is over for many of you, and I am still fighting with those of your who haven’t seen anything.
Hi, I have been reading the post on this thread for a few weeks. We E-filed with H&R block (with 8379 form) on 02/16 …..the IRS accepted 02/20. We are now past our 13 th week….called and called. We got a letter from IRS yesterday with the refund amount we will be getting. Letter states give the payment 4 to 6 weeks to be sent. They must be nuts. This our first year filing IS so it has been a hot mess. Please let me know if anyone got same type of letter if so how long did it take to get refund sent to you. thanks in advance
Very nice!!!
My WMR changed too! It says DDD on the 22nd! Woohoo!
Update, finally! :)
Summary:
Filed electronically and accepted 2/8
Referral requested at 11 weeks
WMR updated 5/18 with a DDD of 5/22A few tips for those hitting the 11 week mark:
When you call the IRS and ask for a referral, make sure you tell them you are having a monetary hardship, and give them examples (behind on bills, overdue on rent, etc.) …if they document these hardships with the referral, you will get a call back within 5 business days. If they do not document any hardships, you could be waiting 30 days for a TA to return your call. Once you do speak with a TA, as long as everything seems fine with your return he/she should tell you that they are giving the IRS a deadline to complete processing, along with a follow up date that they will call you back on, and another date that everything should be wrapped up by.
As others have said, if your TA doesn’t call (or is a slacker like the IRS person handling your return) call your local congressman. Sometimes that’s just what it takes to put a boot in their arse.
Anyway, a bit over 14 weeks but it looks like we’re all set. Hoping that the money shows up earlier than the DDD, like it did for a few last week.
Hang in there everyone!
I have been reading the posts on this thread for weeks now and just waiting for my return, but got tired today as it’s been 14 weeks since my return was accepted and no news. I called the irs through one of the numbers and ext listed above and the very rude woman told me that my refund with IS form had been processed on Monday and that I would see my return in 2-3 weeks. I tried to kill her with kindness and she was still irratible and short with me. Anyway, my question is has anyone been told the same thing, that their refund had been processed and they had to wait 2-3 weeks and it actually was true? I hate to get my hopes up only to be let down. Thanks.
I started lurking around this forum a few weeks ago and am quickly growing concerned and intimidated as I read all of your “horror” stories.
Let me preface that this is the first time I have ever had to file an IS Form. Our tax situation has some less than common elements and I thought a letter and supporting documentation might make my Injured Spouse claim that much stronger. As such, I **MAILED** our joint tax return along with the IS Form and supporting documentation on March 8, 2013. About a week later, the WMR tool updated with the standard message about my return being processed.I am wondering if there was anyone else crazy enough (I claim ignorance) to have paper-filed their return and IS Form and can tell me how long they had to wait or continue to wait for a refund.
I have yet to make a single call to the IRS but after reading so many comments, I suspect I need to get on the bandwagon. What has been the most successful phone number that everyone has been calling?
Thanks to everyone for their advise and support.
Well, spoke to my TA earlier. He said the IRS rep handling our case processed it by the deadline he gave them (5/8) but that he couldn’t see anything more, as it was “tied up” in the system. He said most things post between Wed-Fri each week, so he’s hoping to see an update with a DD soon. Unfortunately, he said it could takes weeks though for the system to release a date. Tomorrow is 14 weeks, he said he’d call us back on the 30th of this month, which will put us at 16 weeks since the return was accepted. He makes no guarantees that we’ll even have a DD at that time, it could take another few weeks beyond that point. So we may be looking at 20+ weeks for our return, which he assured us was error free and simply being held up because “the IRS is behind.” We’re not holding our breath anymore. Right now, we’ll be suprised if we get it by the end of summer the way things are going. This is complete nonsense.
Hi everyone! Like others, I have been following for some time now. Your comments have been such a help to me! I have decided to tell everyone about my story and hopefully some of you will be able to lead me in the right direction.
We filed on 2/6 but had the education tax credit so it was subbmitted to the IRS on 2/14. However, they didn’t accept it until 2/28. This being my second year filing IS, I knew it would take around 8 weeks…as it did last year. After not hearing from the IRS around 8 weeks, I decided to call them. THye gave me the same old “11 weeks” crap. That being said, today, 5/16 would be 11 weeks from 2/28. I called on 5/14 to make sure there weren’t any issues. THe rep I spoke with said on 5/12 someone was in my account and I sould receive my refund in 2-4 weeks. Say what??? You’re kidding right? So, I called back on 5/15 because I figured I could talk to someone more helpful. No such luck. They said to wait an additional 4 weeks. Thinking my check would be in the mail to today, it was a total let down when it wasn’t. I was like a little girl in the window waiting for our mailman. So I call the IRS again. The rep was so rude to me!!!! He said, “ma’am what did they tell you the last time you called?” Ummm…excuse me? I’m pretty sure my tax dollars are paying your hourly wage, so you work for me right? I was so frustrated that I hung up and tried to keep the tears from rolling down my face. I don’t want my 4 year old to see me this upset. As of right now, my checking account is in the negitive, we’re about to get evicted, and my sons birthday is on the 19th :(
Per the IRS and IS Offset they received monies yesterday which is strange because I have heard that the IRS only mails checks out on Fridays which I assume they will do this week. The Offset line say they received monies 5/15/13. I am not sure how the monies are disbursed to those debtors i.e. Student Loans are Child Support agencies if it is by wire or check. I have been told that the IRS sends out checks once a week and only on Fridays which means that they will mail out my check this Friday which is the 17th. I don’t understand how the offset place said a dollar amount was “applied 5/15/13” and the IRS Rep told me my IS portion was released 5/15/13. Totally confused as to when it was mailed. As of yesterday there was nothing in my mail but I am hopeful it will comes ASAP :-)
Thanks @tiredofwaiting99. I agree we should not have to go through this crap. I don’t plan on ever filing an injured spouse form again. I will do married filing separately from now on….Have you gotten your refund yet?
I am so happy for you @brokeandfrustrated you had to go through so much to get your refund. We are taxpaying citizens we should not have to go through this crap. It is no wonder that the IRS is catching hell now.
Good news finally! :) Our refund was in the bank this morning, as the TA told us it would be. Not that I am praising our TA, because she wasn’t doing crap until we got in touch with our congressman. Only then did she do her job. I highly recommend getting it touch with your congressman or senator. Had we not done that, we would not have even been aware that there was a problem with our return that the IRS didn’t bother to tell us about and it would still be sitting there untouched. Thank God this long wait is over!! Praying that everyone gets their money soon! God bless! :)
Congrats to those that have gotten their refunds!
Friday will be 14 weeks here. The WMR has not changed, and our TA is supposed to call tomorrow with an update. He gave the IRS until last Thursday to “wrap it up” but apparently the woman assigned to it is still painting her nails or something along those lines. Hopefully our TA has some good news for us.
UPDATE: I called the IRS yesterday and spoke to a nice lady named Mrs. Walker she told me that we should be receiving a DD on 05/15. She also told me two amounts, one is coming to us and the other is going to an offset amount. I explained to her why we filed the IS and that we have payment arrangements set up with the school loan department. She said that’s a misconception that people have. She said even though we have arrangements set up there is still nothing stopping them from taking the refund. She said there is a debt indicator attached to my SSN and if I can get them to take that off then they will not take our refund anymore.
This morning I looked in my bank account and the money was there :) FINALLY! But the wired thing is before I checked my bank account I checked the WMR website and it still said WE HAVE RECEIVED YOUR TAX RETURN AND IT IS BEING PROCESSED. Which is a complete lie because we have our money!!!!
So I called the offset number to find out where the other part of our refund went. And of course it went toward our school loans like Mrs. Walker said. So I then proceed to call them and told them that we are set up on a payment plan every month but our refund was still taken. The rep said that she will send us a financial hardship form to fill out and we may be able to get part of our money back. She also look at our account and said that she see that we are making payments and that will work in our favor. So I have another battle coming up. Hopefully we will get a portion of that back. Me and my husband talked about it last night and even though we should let them keep it so that can go toward our loans but will need some of that money back to pay our bills.
