My bar never disappeared nor did the message ever change prior to the ddd. It went straight from the original 1 bar and processing 21 day message to a ddd. I’m just trying not to get my hopes up or anything because until my refund is in my account I’m not going to count on anything.
So like a lot of people have suggested or straight out said I too wonder if the people answering our calls at the good ol IRS are not tellin us stuff just to get off the phone or reading off a script.
Oh and also on 2/13 when I got the ddd I first checked the irs2go app on my phone & it showed but when I checked wmr right after it showed still processing and didn’t change until later in the day but the app and hotline said the ddd.I understand they have A LOT on their plate this time of year, but give us working tools to access info or customer service reps who actually want to do their job and things could possibly be a little less stressful. I just want to find out what is going…like if you need more info from me or whatever. I’ve never had this kind of delay in prior years…
@kg thanks for sharing that sounds mighty similar to what’s going on with me. Was told I was under a review, on 02/11 my MWR status changed from 21 days to your refund is STILL being processed on 02/12 I was able to order return transcripts now I’m hoping I will get DDD soon. I called again today and spoke to every department imaginable and was told my return is indeed processed so now it’s a major waiting game thanks for giving us “under review” some hope :)
Hello all
I filed on 2/4 and was accepted on 2/7 per IRS rep. As you all know the WMR site is not worth a s#$*& or worse. I searched the internet to find a 2013 IRS refund schedule chart and found one issued 2013. It says to be accurate for 90% of taxpayers.
File accepted feb 2, through Feb 8,2013.. DD feb 15 2013 …. paper check Feb 18,2013
I hope it right and we will get ours this week end or early next week.:)
@kg00861 thank you for sharing!! hopefully we’ll get good news too.
KG00861, That’s exactly what happened to me. Identical, except I still can’t get a return transcript, and I have no DDD.
@kg00861…thanks for sharing….did your processing bar ever dissapear and did your status ever go to will provide direct deposit date when available message? Thanks in advance again sharing
Well I don’t know if this is much help or not but I will share my story. I filed on 1/29/13 and got an email saying I was accepted on 1/31/13. Wmr stayed on first bar and that I was still processing 21 days thing. I requested transcripts on 2/5 (trying to take out a loan but needed as much income info as possible due to self employment) & was only able to get account transcript. I claimed hoh, 1 reg w2, schedule c (no self employment deductions just the income),& 2 kids (my 9 year old & new baby).
I called 2 different times and was told everything was fine just still processing and that nobody is able to order transcripts of any kind for 2012 because they are not ready (I knew better than that because my boyfriend ordered both his 2/5 and got a ddd on 2/6 for 2/8). On Monday 2/11 I our thranscripts came in his were 2012 so the IRS is just saying the transcripts are not available but my acct transcripts said there was not a 2012 tax return filed. So I freaked and called irs again but called the number on the transcript for if there were any questions. The lady I spoke with said my return was there and the same spill about transcripts being unavailable but proceeded to tell me that my return was being delayed by 1 extra week. I asked why and she said because of the high volume of returns and that I was put into review but if they needed anything they would let me know just to keep checking and could take 4 weeks.
Just out of hopes I tried for the return transcript again and nothing but tried again later that night around 10 cst and was able to order it. Yesterday 2/13 I did get a ddd for 2/15 so I am in hopes it will be in my bank tomorrow but still trying to figure out why the last lady told me I was in review.
I just thought I would share my story in case anyone else has a similar situation maybe it could help.just checked, i got my bar back lol but still processing…no change in the message. i guess i should just be grateful i have no error/irs ref code, right? bleh.
Did u order a transcript
@whitneyf 1242 is a “reserved” delay code. The IRS does not publicize the reason behind it. There are many possible reasons but the EIC seems to be a very common area. If you’ve claimed the EIC and there is anything questionable about the claim your refund will be delayed while the IRS investigates it.
that’s what i got from googlingUpdate: 2/14 no other letter from the IRS as of today WMR still says your refund is still being processed a due date when available..
Accepted 1/26
can’t order transcripts
simple return: Child tax credit, married, 2 w2’s.
Went from the orange bar 1/30-2/7 to the “your return is still being processed” message. Just went back to orange bar this morning.I just want a direct deposit date!!!
I found this interesting it is IRS watch blogs from Forbes last updated February 11, 2013.. http://blogs.forbes.com/irswatch/
oh, no 8863, no EIC. Just child tax credit and 2 W2’s (married filing joint)
accepted 1/26
Had “your return is still being processed, refund information will be updated when available” message from 2/7 until today. Now, I have the orange bar back.Anyone else still waiting that was accepted on the 26th???
Matthew, your not alone…I too was accepted on the 27th and have not yet been given a DD.
I filed on Feb 7th and still awaiting acceptance. Anyone else in Oklahoma experiencing this?

My return just went from that message (which was like that since the 7th) back to the bar this morning. No 8863, no EIC, just child tax credit and the W2s for me and my husband. We were accepted on the 26th, and still waiting on even a ddd or refund approved!
Got this from IRS Return Preparer Office’s facebook :
The IRS today alerted taxpayers and the tax community it is experiencing high traffic on Where’s My Refund as more tax returns come in. The heavy volume of refund inquiries means that the IRS anticipates both “Where’s My Refund?” on IRS.gov and the refund feature on the IRS2go phone app will have limited availability during busier periods.
Due to the large number of inquiries and to avoid service disruptions, the IRS strongly urges taxpayers to only check on their refunds once a day. IRS systems are only updated once a day, usually overnight, and the same information is available whether on the internet, IRS2go smartphone app or on IRS toll-free lines. While “Where’s My Refund” is updated nightly, your account will not change that frequently.
The IRS is seeing a good start to the filing season, and tax refunds are being issued timely. Nine out of 10 taxpayers typically receive refunds in less than 21 days when they use e-file with direct deposit.
The IRS expects to see the number of tax returns — and related refund inquiries –steadily increase around the President’s Day holiday week.
Here are some tips to help taxpayers with their refund questions:
∙ Have the right tax information ready before using any of the IRS refund tools. This includes Social Security number, filing status and refund amount.
∙ You don’t need to check Where’s My Refund more than once a day as your information will not change.
∙ To avoid system delays, the best time to check on refunds is evening and weekends.
∙ There is no need to call the IRS about your refund; the telephone service has the same information that is available on Where’s My Refund.@MrsTiff:….my wife just ordered our Return Transcript 2Day…so im hoping for a good sign
@thisizridiculous: never heard its good luck if the status bar disappears thats a new one.
Although I know several of us never had a bar to start with so it’s no help LOL
I wonder if there is anyone that filed before that got theirs and have a date in that box. We could probably call and ask what it means.
Unfortunately no. I am going to eventually need them for school this fall.
Mine says that too…
Voslik have you been able to order transcripts yet?
Accepted the 30th, 15th day and waiting. Still processing. By the time I get this refund I may be on the street. Every bill I owe is do. 5 months of unemployment without income will do that to a person. The IRS is skeevy as usual this year, even more so.
I find it interesting that there aren’t any “reviews” when the money is taken from my paycheck every two weeks, but suddenly a “review” is must to return it.
@thisizridiculous don’t know if that’s true cos i still can’t order my return transcript but then i’ve seen a few not too many getting their refund but couldn’t order their transcript. have u guys seen this? the tax refunds may be delayed http://video.msnbc.msn.com/jansing-and-co/50397839#50397839
Accepted 31st, nothing yet. Talked to a person in the holds dept on Tuesday and was told it is processed but is not updated in all their systems yet. He couldn’t give me a date but said it should only be a few days, should be by the end of the week. I sure hope he is right, we need this money so bad. We have bills to pay and need diapers and clothes for my kids :(
Filed 2/1
Accepted 2/7
No offsets, no 8863, EIC
Absolutely no information available on hotline or WMR :(I don’t have an Offset….however if you do they take that out of your taxes.
Still the same 21 day message! Still no transcripts. Day 15 & counting :/
I am in the same hold myself….file with TT on 2/7 and was told i was not accepted until 2/9 even though TT sent me and email stating I was within hours…..Call IRS today verified my offset information to them and the lady put it in my files telling me I will receive a letter. The joke of the day is when she ask me how was I planning on paying them….I told her when she pays me first you can ask that question again
no change for me today… still receiving the direct deposit date will be given when available and no bars which happened on Monday morning. Just processing… I talked to someone again at the Boston office of Examinations and she said she could not find anything in the examinations department at least on the screens she reviewed. Just have to continue to wait.. 21 days will be up on the 18th/19th. Hope to have a better update by then.
Filed at 12:52am on 2/6
2/8 or 2/9 got the topic 152 messageI have been processing ever since without any further change.
I cant order either transcript as of about 5 minutes ago…not sure what to think, I have heard that the fact you cant order either transcript is actually a good thing because it in fact means you are still processing and not under review, etc. I am starting to lose my cool, calm collected self :)I just want to wake up on of these morning with a DDD, I even had a dream about my direct deposit date the other night – which is just so very wrong LOL!
I now despise the word PROCESSING!!!!
I still can’t order a return transcript, and wmr still says I’m processing. I have not gotten a letter yet, and all the irs told me last week was that I’m under review, but only for 7 more days. Today would be the last day. I have tried to call this week, and was given the “no one can see your return until 21 days have passed” crap. IRS to go used to say they had received my return, but now it says my refund is being processed. Anyone care to shed some light on that?
@2013taxpayer. I’ve heard thats good news if the status bar dissappears. God only knows at this point but hopefully you’ll have your $$ soon!
Yep same here as aimjay….took 2 days to actually start processing. So Im looking for an update by the weekend or Monday!!
hey aimjay Thats exactly what I was told today…that even though I was accepted on the 5th I was however not began to process till the 7th. So there must be some truth to this….I was also told to look over the weekend or by Monday for an update. I would say you and I are getting exactly the same message….that isnt a bad thing at least!
Been lurking here for a while but haven’t posted yet. Just thought I’d let you guys know that I just got accepted and I am an 8863’er. I filed on January 29th but haven’t been accepted until now. About the date that we all thought.
Good luck to you all. Hope you early acceptance folks get a quick return!
so…..only one diff on my wmr this morning lol. no staus bar but still same msg haha. oh boy!
I filed in jan. got accepted on the 30 went under review on the 2nd and said to take action and a letter would be on the way asking for more info.I’ve been calling the irs and everybody tells me something different but the same thing LOL we don’t know wait for the letter some say the letter is asking for something but they don’t know what and others say the letter is just telling me I went under review and they might need more info so I checked wheres my refund and it changed to under review again but it says nothing about a letter and says for more info call 1800-829-0582 and give them the ref.#1242 so I call and they tell me the same thing I was told on the 2nd.Wait for a letter that may or may not ask for something.smh
@MrsTiff…I filed and was accepted the 31st. The IRS rep I talked to said I started processing on the 1st.
check your account abby.
Usually that means its pending.
@ Marissa.1975
I am so sorry you are having to deal with this like the rest of us. No one deserves to lose their home. I know, I’ve been there and now my family and I are having to live with my mom after losing our home. As far as the tax advocate goes, the people I have talked to that haven gotten help from them have just explained that not having the refund is causing great financial hardship. Maybe if you said that and left out the part about your house, they might be more willing to help you. Crazy that they want proof from the people who need it most but a fair share of folks are just calling and straight out lying or exaggerating way beyond whats real.
I really hope you get the answers you need, and soon. The IRS is just playing games this year and none of it makes any kind of sense. For what its worth, I don’t think you are *really* in review. From what I have read here and on other boards, everything is just all screwed up. It doesn’t make any kind of sense that ALL these people are in review. We can’t all look like liars and theives. My heart goes out to you and please update us if you hear anything.
Just to let you know…I filed 2/5 and was according to them I thought I was accepted 2/5 a few hours later…WWWEEELLLLLL I called today and was told still processing and that I was really accepted 2/7….You may have not been accepted on 2/7 ….. Bunch of Bull
Ive been reading the forums the past few days and decided to post. I filed on the 31st and had the orange bars for a few days, then the 21 day message up until two days ago when i was finally able to order my return transcripts. Then it switched to the dd date will be given when available message. This morning i checked my acconut and my refund is sitting there with a dd date of 2-19. Just for the heck of it i went back to check WMR and its showing the bars and a dd date of 2-19 even though its alreafy been sent.
Good luck everyone!No update here either. Filed and accepted 1/30. Ordered transcrips a week ago. No offests. Jut want to know what the hell is going on!
Same thing!
Same thing, I filed 1/24th, accepted on 1/27th. To make a long story short. The first IRS rep told me nothing was wrong. WMR and IRS2Go both said processing with no code. Never got a letter. The holds department told me everything was fine, the examination department told me they saw it was under review but there was nothing indicating why it was under review nor nothing indicating it would come to that department. She said it was more than likely my depedent. She said they could ask for more information or they could just notice that I have filed the same way for six years and release it from review.
@styxparadise That would explain why I cant find anything on it either. Once again the IRS should have better planned this before this huge mess up. Now they should just release all these holds since its more of faulty program than actual fraud.
what does the automated say, abby?
Can someone tell me why yesterday I had a DDD of 2/15 and today wmr says the we received your tax info, we will provide you with more info when available…

Can someone tell me why yesterday I had a DDD of 2/15 and now on wmr it says the generic received your tax info, we will provide you with a DDD when available or whatever
