Just called the IRS. Agent told me it takes 24-48 business hours to show up on WMR. Hotline and WMR says my info is entered incorrectly. She also said she doesn’t see my return yet. She said if I don’t see anything on WMR tomorrow then to call back.

[Anonymous]

Looks like Netspend/metabank wins! Jk, but I thought it was cool that the funds came 3 days early

[Anonymous]

I can’t guarantee complete accuracy of the above post but it’s in line with what I’ve read from official sources. I copied and pasted it here because it’s an easy to read and understand shortened version of information that’s currently available but very time consuming to dig through and comprehend. Thanks to retiredsgt.

Just called the IRS. My return was e-filed and accepted 1/31. On WMR and the hotline it says my info was entered incorrectly. The IRS agent told me that since we just went through the weekend it needs more time. She said it needs 24-48 business hours to show up on WMR. So idk. She said if I don’t get an update tomorrow then to call them back.

BCU– nothing yet :( And they say they deposit funds up to 2 days before you are suppose to get it.

Filed1/28
Accpt 1/31 perhrb hotline
stuck in processing since
state was accepted 2/1
No email from hrb
no dd

[Justsayin]

I filed 1/27 accepted by IRS on 1/30 filed via H&R block online . What I’m hearing is that H&R held returns until the 30th so I don’t think I was accepted early, although, I honestly don’t know. I used the free version so I didn’t have any fees taken out. I had a generic no bar processing status on WMR up until Saturday morning which I got a DDD of 2/6. Easy simple return same as last year. I bank with Woodforest and my husbands payroll checks always post a day early. As of noon today the bank teller didn’t even see my deposit pending. I’m not going to let it get me down though cause over Thanksgiving his payroll check did’t deposit a day early and I called and they didn’t even see it pending, but it ended up posting that night. I usually get dd in the middle of the night so I will let everyone know when I actually get my refund.

I can’t see anything but “processing” on wmr site and filed/accepted in 2/1.

FYI:
The only things checked when your e-filed return is first submitted is a basic name-to-SSN match (first 5 letters of last name) and that none of the SSNs on the return have been used already. Birthdate to SSN checks are run on any children claimed on the return. I believe than any EINs from the W-2s are checked as valid/invalid as I’ve seen an occasional reject for a bad EIN.

Once it’s accepted the system runs the usual checks for math errors and basic compliance, i.e verifying that exemption and standard deduction values match filing status and number of claimed exemptions, etc. and that any claimed credits are legally entitled.

At this point returns are also reviewed for major fraud flags. Those vary from one year to the next and may even change during the season but popular ones are EIC fraud (dependents claimed as nieces and nephews, dependents moving around among taxpayers from one year to the next, self-employment income sufficient to qualify for a maximum EIC) and new for this year, the First Time Home Buyer Credit (qualifying purchase the same address as filed last year, duplicate claims using the same qualifying property address, no match with public property transfer records, etc.).

Anyone get a refund that has been in review. Last year it delayed my refund one week. Hoping for the same this year.

[Anonymous]

Thanks for info

[Anonymous]

I’ll be watching this post my DD is 2/7 I called my bank and they didn’t see a deposit coming thru yet.

[Anonymous]

Hey,

If you have a DD of 2/7 please let us know if you have your money yet. Hoping they start going in tonight/ tomorrow morning.

Also, if you got your early, did the IRS website update stating it was deposited.

[Anonymous]

STILL Processing. . .I don’t get this. At ALL.

[Anonymous]

[Anonymous]

[Anonymous]

Some early filers returns were accepted early then the official tax season start date 1/30. I was one of them. 1/29 i got a DD date of 2/4. I filed through tax act like i’ve done the past three years and republic bank which is the one tax act is through to take my fee just released my funds and they say it can take 1-5 days to be shown in my bank that i elected my refund be sent to (bancorp bank) green dot…this is the first year ive used green dot. I’ve always used the tax act endeavor card. Gonna wait & see how long green dot takes to release my funds

Happy tax season

[Anonymous]

I called this morning about reference number 1541. I was told nothing was wrong and my refund is just delayed 2-3 weeks.

[brokencgirl]

thanks @msbrowneyes for that info

[Anonymous]

I’m a 2/5er- Funds sent to SBBT, however, nothing posted yet to Chase.

[Anonymous]

So I just checked SBBT and it shows they have received funds from the IRS and that fees and all that were paid AND that funds were sent to my bank account, however, when I check with Chase, there is nothing there, nothing pending. AHHGHGHGHH!!! This is torture!! I guess the one good thing is I am a 2/5er, and I’m sure the funds will be there when they say they will. Oh, and next year, I’m paying the TT fees upfront. This is the first year I ever opted to have fees taken from my refund.

[Anonymous]

I didn’t have any fees to pay so my dd went straight to my bank

[Anonymous]

IRS Calls from Feb 4, 2013:

IRS Agent name: Dennis Ragen (call 1)
badge number: 2627475
Aren’t processing until mid Feb. Don’t need to take addition action at this time. Wouldn’t give any information about return at all.

IRS Agent Name: Mrs. Rickman (call 2)
Badge #: 0584322
Told them I wanted to confirm banking information.
Accepted 1/24:
Normal processing time is 3 weeks. If nothing, has to adhere to that time frame. *bunch of bull*
Do have return, is being processed, refund is $1707.
What they have on the 8863 issues: if the IRS received before Jan 27, will hold until mid Feb. even though they are “processing” they aren’t really processing. Apparently any dates given (2/7, 2/11 or 2/15) weren’t given by her, and as such, she can’t answer why they are being given out.

[Anonymous]

I bank with BOA. I haven’t received anything yet. I did call BOA. They wont look to see if you have a pending deposit but said they post deposit to the account as soon as they get it. Don’t know how true that is but we will see.

[Anonymous]

My dd date was 2/6 but I got my DD on to my NetSpend card on 2 / 3 at 930 p.m. and funds were available at that time for me to use

[Anonymous]

My husband and I filed our taxes with liberty tax, our return was accepted and approved and we were given a dd date of 2-1-2013…here we are one 2-4-2013 and still no dd!My bank doesnt even show it as pending..This has never happened before to us, we elected to have the tax preparer fee taken out from our refund(which we’ve done every year)so I know it is sent to liberty tax’s bank first..so I called to see if they had at least recieved my refund because I can no longer get any info from wheres my refund on the irs site or the hotline and Liberty tax refuses to give me any info and they wont even tell me if they still bank with Republic bank anymore…from what Ive been reading about them online is they were trying to end their contract with republic bank but I can’t find if they actually did end it…They also have a lot of other stuff going on! so I dont think they are being completely honest with us, something is going on! I’ve filed with them for a few years now and this has never happened..is anyone else having issues with them? can someone at least tell me if you’ve experienced something similar or maybe ease my mind and tell me you filed with them and recieved your refund?

i filed on 1/28 accepted 1/29 processing for 4 days then went to review. Called IRS today and after talking the rep into looking up my return she said still processing. Not sure if this is accurate or not. I do have a schedule C, Filed HOH, and claim my nephew same as I did last year because I am his legal guardian with a court order. i have filed with a schedule C and W2 for the last 8 years never an issue.

Personally I have seen so many people comment on this review process I have no idea who is right, some say the review is generated by computer and may only cause a delay of a couple of days. Others say it can hold your refund for weeks or months.

Who knows????

[Anonymous]

Mine is still processing, accepted on the 31st. Called and they have it, but my name is listed wrong with the IRS, so I may not get my refund without sending in documents (that I can’t send in until they send me a letter, the rep told me not to bother, they will get lost). I really hope that we start seeing 1/31 dd dates soon, at least then I will know if it’s coming or if I’m stuck waiting until after the 20th. :(

[Anonymous]

I wish they’d give us some info! I haven’t seen any 2/8 DD so hopefully we will see that date tomorrow! I hate not knowing anything!!

[Anonymous]

Suntrust, standard checking acct…..no DD yet wasnt expecting it but sure woulda been SWEET! lol Ill update as well but thinking Wednesday morning….

[Anonymous]

Filed and accepted 1/31 with TT. WMR and hotline say I entered my information wrong. Not sure what’s going on.

[Anonymous]

i’m with wells fargo, sadly i wont get it till the morning of 2/6. which is almost here by the way! my sister is also getting hers on that day and has boa so if she gets it tmw, i will update u!

[Anonymous]

@TyphoonDragon I love your logic and your grocery store made me laugh! I’ve come to realize that there is definitely no rhyme or reason to returns this year but as long as it doesn’t take 3 weeks like it did last year I’ll be happy :)

[whitneyf]

Nothing in the mail today. :( If anyone else gets anything make sure to let us know! :)

[Anonymous]

Did they explain projected date to you? The lady I spoke to last week that told me projected date could not tell me if that’s when it will start processing, finish processing or DD.

[Anonymous]

Mine is still saying processing. ugh!

[Anonymous]

I called the irs and they said that they have my return and it’s currently still processing gave me the 21 day message. I was accepted on 01/31. At least i know that they i’m in processing..

[Anonymous]

I filed online using HR free edition, filed on 01/30/13, accepted on 01/31/13, on WMR still says processing. I have not been able to order a transcript.

[Anonymous]

Filed and accepted 1/31/13 through TT. WMR and hotline says my info was entered incorrectly. Getting frustrated. I wish I could at least find myself on WMR. :(

[brokencgirl]

Hello everyone, I’m with Bank of America and don’t see anything when I sign into our online banking. I’ll just be happy with it being there Wednesday morning. Hopefully BOA isn’t gonna hold it forever, not sure since this is our first time filing our own taxes without getting a RAL and putting it on a prepaid card or getting a paper check. I feel alot better paying 14.95 than 500.00 or more. All my money is mine. Paid the fees upfront! Everyone plz. keep us all posted, does anyone else here have BOA or money going into a regular account?

[Anonymous]

Just because you file before somebody doesn’t mean you’ll be processed before them. There isn’t one waiting line there’s a whole bunch of waiting lines (servers). Try to compare it to checking out at the grocery store on a super busy day. Some lines (servers) are moving way faster and smoother than others. If your return is taking way too long then you’re probably in line (server) 5 with the lady ahead of you that has 150 coupons (deductions) that disputes prices (errors) then has to fill out a check and balance her check book prior to exiting the lane (server). Basically, that’s what it’s like. You’re in one of many lines and you may or may not get out fast depending on who and how many people are ahead of you in that particular line (server).

[whitneyf]

Blh146 I thought you were under review? Did that change?

[Anonymous]

Showing in sbbt acct now, however my date is 2/5 so im sure it will post to boa about 4am tomorrow. This is the same as last year :)

[Anonymous]

I just wanted to post this before I forgot. Not only may some returns take more steps between points A and B they may take different (slower or faster) routes. For example: Michelle and Maria are friends that are going to get their taxes done together. They work at the same place, make the same amount of money and everything on their returns will be identical except the names, and SSN’s. They walk into the tax preparation office together finish their taxes and walk out together. Now you would think they should get their refunds back the same day. But, Michelle’s return was sent to IRS server #1 (made up name) with a million returns already in it and Maria’s was sent to IRS server #2 (made up name) with only 100,000 returns in it. To make matters worse IRS server #1 happens to have a lot of complicated returns that need processed prior to checking Michelle’s return while server #2 has already processed Maria’s return. Needless to say, Maria gets her refund and Michelle remains in processing for a little while longer.

I’m sorry, I know that I may not have all of the facts but the concept is right.

[whitneyf]

Well I tried calling this morning and had absolutely no luck in finding out why I am under review. She just told me it’s too early to find out anything about my return. She wouldn’t even look up my info. Just told me to wait 3 weeks to see if my status updates. What the heck is the call center there for then if they can’t answer questions that are actually deemed important other than people calling trying to get a friggin’ DD date after filing hours ago! SMH. Hopefully something comes in the mail today. I don’t want this getting dragged out too long.

Club 8863
2 minutes ago
I just got off the phone with the IRS and they stated I have a projected date of the 11th for a refund. Lets see how true that is, hope so. If you call the IRS do not tell them that you filed the 8863. And when they ask you to chek online, tell them you cant get on, and they will review your file and let you know what is your projected date. Good Luck everyone!

Waiting and waiting

[whitneyf]

Anyone called them yet to see what the IRS says? I’m afraid to call them.. I’ve heard they can be rude!

[Anonymous]

Did anyone call irs yet about 1541? I am on hold…….

[Anonymous]

Nope not for me

[my2girls]

Still processing! Same as last year, nothing at all has changed but still no updates at all. Very aggravating. I know it’s only been little under a week since they started accepting and processing returns and it takes time but an update would be nice!!

[Anonymous]

Any good news this morning?

[Anonymous]

I received my state dd yesterday…. Just waitin on my federal … Hoping its sooner rather than later!!!

[Anonymous]

I filed & I was accepted on 02/02/2013. Wmr says processing & I’m looking for people who would like to play the waiting game with me. LOL.

[Anonymous]

[Anonymous]

1230AM and still nothing. Hopefully it will show tonight.

[Peter]

Filed with hrb in 30th and accepted the same day …. Able to order transcript in 2/2 and as of today got a dd of 2/7. It’s coming . Hope this helps.

[Anonymous]

My direct deposits always show up around 930pm US Eastern. I will post tonight.

[AmyOhio]

I was accepted on 1/25 with form 8863. My State return finished final processing stage on 1/31. It says my State will be mailed on or before 2/14, so I am thinking our Federal returns with 8863 form will arrive right around 2/11.

[Amanda]

No new news here :) Wednesday is only a few more days away :)

[MommaJules]

No news today for me. How about everyone else?

[Waiting and Waiting]

@yanking – i’m going through the same thing i’m not getting anything on the 800# either. I was accepted on 1/30 i got the email that the IRS accepted around 5 am so i’m guess i may fall inot the 01/31 date.
