[Waiting]

My NC has been accepted but is processing…

[jonvia]

The state of nc revenue is not accepting returns yet.

[Kristi h]

It’s glitch at best this year. If you even suspect you have an offset, expect it, then be pleasantly surprised if you don’t.

[Anonymous]

oh wow.. ok, I filed on the 20th.. just waiting…

[lennyfromga]

@ lamoney0409 I filed with TT. TT received it on 1/12 @7pm. Received by GA 1/13 @ 10am. Accepted by GA 1/14 @ 11am.

[Kathryn]

Thanks all

[kalyn]

I filled on the 17th and got my card yesterday

[kristen]

I filed my taxes on the 8th this year and got my card in exactly a week. I used netspend last year also and got my deposit three days early also before wmr even updated but I got it at around noon.

[Edward]

Yes, it is a good choice, you will get your tax refund fast. Just watch for it. You will see.

Mine is still down too

[Anonymous]

Hi Hi Hi typos, my phone has a mind of its own!

[ni]

The last time I had an offset I called the day I filed and was accepted…. it stated there was an offset then about 5 days later I called again to make sure it was just the one and there was none so i contacted a representative and they said that as soon as my refund was processed and approved the money was sent to child support office and the remaining balance was sent to refund distribution to be sent out when everyone else’s refunds were deposited that week (this was 2-3 years ago when refunds went out weekly not daily. So maybe your debt has been paid. Can you log into your dept of education account and check the balance?

[Anonymous]

My friend that gave me the date of the 28th said that the infovwas on their corp conference call. That they will release the deposit codes in the 28th but to tell people to check the 3rd so they don’t get flooded. Have faith guys, no one has to lie!

[taxesqa15]

filed on friday 1/23 and not accepted yet. in past years was accepted within 24 hours

[Jessica]

Not true on the software seeing you as needing more of a closer review. Some people actually do need the transcripts asap for school.

[Keri]

I had this done too. Before I filed, I called and my husband had one so we called to make payments and I called the DOE(depart. of edu) and they said they were still gonna take over 5000 out of my refund, so I filed injured spouse. Got accepted the 20th and called yesterday and his offset wasnt on there. Either they took it off because I made payment plans + first payment or I dunno what else, but if thats the case I filed IS for no reason!

[Bill]

I called the offset hotline on the 22nd 2 days after I was accepted. I had a offset called last night and today and their was no offset anymore?! Anyone else have this issue or know what’s going on ?

[Anonymous]

I filed with taxslayer on the 16th got accepted on the 20th that morning now at the first bar hope something change in the am for the better of course lol

[Keri]

Still not working for me!!!! Anyone else??

[Paul]

i was able to get into my transcripts tonight, however, 2014 is still not available…

[kumara]

Last year my return was accepted on 1/31. return credited on 7th Feb.

This year filed on 1/20 ,accepted on 1/21. Expecting my return to be credit by 29th or 30th.

[CarolinaGirl27910]

Filed on 1/24. Accepted 1/24.

[kumara]

Filed on 1/20 , accepted on 1/21. Saw this message today.

We authorized your refund on Friday, January 23, 2015.

Please allow:

10 business days to receive your refund by direct deposit, or

25 business days to receive your refund by check.

If we made any adjustments to your return, we will notify you by mail.

[Hawks]

So if I filed on the 21 I will get my money on the 6th than

[exaccountant]

I have always e-filed my taxes and have been in the accounting field. In all previous years, an indication that returns were actually being processed (not just received and accepted by the IRS) was that clients were able to go to the IRS website and get an online transcript for the current year’s return. So far this year, I am not aware of anyone who has been able to obtain the transcripts as of yet, hence none have been processed. Because of the Health Care Act and budget cuts, I believe we are all looking at closer to the 21 days than in previous years, although they have generally used that in past years as a fall back in case of delays or issues. It is also absolutely not true that WHERE you filed taxes, or who your accountant is, determines how soon you will receive your refund. The refunds are processed in order that they are received, then by difficulty (1040 EZ first, ) errors are held, etc. Once IRS.GOV starts showing movement on the transcripts, that indicates that returns are being processed and THEN we will see movement and DDDs.

[Amber]

Only federal student loans will be garnished from federal refund. Your PA state refund will be offset for a state loan.

[Danna]

I had mine on the 29th of last year. Before opening. I expect a DDD tomorrow.

[Anonymous]

I have no reason to lie and neither does my friend. Keep being and impatient idiot, it works well for you.

[Chris g]

About the netspend cards… I’ve been having my tax refund DD into my netspend account the past 5 years. Every year, its hit my card 3-4 days before the official IRS date. This is because they make funds available as soon as they receive notification about a pending deposit.

IMPORTANT!!!!!
Netspend will still receive the money even if you haven’t got your card in the nail, but they won’t make it available until you have activated your card. So for example. Say netspend gets told that they are gonna get a direct deposit from the IRS for 5,000 on February 2nd, but you don’t get your card until February 5th. When you log onto netspends website, it’s gonna say you have 0.00 balance. It won’t even show it as pending. As soon as you activate your card it becomes available.

I had to order a replacement card a few weeks ago, I live in New York, it took 6 business days.

[Anonymous]

@ lennyfromga when did you file your taxes?

[Steve]

same message. I hope everything is alright. My federal 1040 was audited last year and denied but I got my Oklahoma taxes. Not sure what is going on this year

[Theresa]

I filed on the 8 with taxact on the 8th, was accepted by the IRS on the 12th, and I am still sitting at one bar……was kind of hoping to get refund this week….but it doesnt look that way…..

I do a standard 1040, same thing every year…..

I found this on yahoo answers. It’s from 2010. Is it possible this could be causing confusion by not paying attention to the year? IJS

Are you people that crazy? OK THE IRS DOES NOT PROCESS TAXES BY WHERE YOU HAD YOUR TAXES DONE AT. For example some of you are saying H&R Blocks taxes are going to be deposited on the 28th and Jackson Hewitt customers taxes will be deposited on the 29th Turbo Tax gets theirs on the 30th. That’s a bunch of garbage that’s not how it works. They review them as they come in. Some situation are different and require more time to process. No matter who you talk to everyone has something different to say. The only people that knows when you get your return is the IRS. They will send you your return within 21 days PERIOD. The IRS is sticking to that. so check your statuses in 21 days. This is tough love guys I am being honest you think its going to be a quick thing like it has been in the past tax seasons. Things are different now. You have all the tax deductions, the Obamacare and you have a lot of fraud cases (where people are stealing SS# and making up fake companies to collect money from the IRS. GOOD LUCK EVERYONE!

[Anonymous]

@Rizza4235, No I haven’t yet received it yet…hoping for a deposit tomorrow…for reference I’m referring to my PA State refund

[Crystal]

I ordered my Netspend card when I filed on the 20th and I have still not received it, but I did log on to the website and set up my account. And I was able to somewhat track my card. I know that it has been shipped.

[Cafeazucartx]

I usually try to be calm and wait but….. I want my money yesterday -__- I am aware it’s not possible but -__- sucks to have to wait with no type of updates…

[Britmarie]

I’ve read another website that the first deposits will Jan 28-Jan29 I will try and get the website for everyone. Not sure if it true but figured I share with ya’ll

[Tiffanie]

I have read a lot of forums about Ohio looking for answers and from what I see there are 2 groups of people right now, us with no info at all in the system and others who have a message saying they being manually reviewed. Hoping no record is the better status right now.

[vafiler]

Yes I had my refund and payroll deposit to my Netspend card for years because you get you money 2 days earlier. I also lost my card before and went into family dollar and got another one and they added that card to my account so I can access my funds until a new card come in the mail. Great card,

[impatientlywaiting]

Have your “friend” take a picture with their work badge, holding todays paper with “igmr” written on it in sharpie, very boldly. Then i might believe you

[BLESSED]

Hi all,

Hoping you can help. My husband has a PA State student loan that went into default and his wages have been garnished for a year. When we called the offset line his soc. brought up no debts. Last year, the loan was in default and he was near garnishment and we did not get out tax return taken. Any clue as to why?? We did our taxes and are getting a large amount back, but we are nervous it is going to get taken, regardless we know it is going toward the debt. Has anyone has their social be clear on the offset hotline but have still get their refund taken?

[amanda]

Has anybody received their Netspend Card Yet?? If so, How many days approximately did it take to come????

Thanks Amanda☺️

[Jessica]

I hope its soon. My father in law passed away so we are needing to help out my mother in law. I believe the reason it is taking so long it is because of the Health care act.

[Waitingsucks]

I hope everyone is right on the 27th – 28th my birthday is the 29th!!

[Jmac]

Lies!!!!!!!!

[Anonymous]

Hi guys I have a friend that manages a local Jackson Hewitt and she said that the IRS will give them their first deposits by the 28th and that they were told to tell customers by the 3rd. Hope this helps!!!

[ladyofthenight]

@iwanttoshop….seeing is believing. I was accepted on the 20th but filed on the 7th although it would be a pleasant surprise to wake up to money in my account on the 28th it is hard to believe…I guess we will just have to wait and see.

[BS]

Filed 1/22/15 accepted 1/23/15 had 1 bar, 24th disappeared, today 25th 1 bar return received and being processed with generic 152 code and 21 day message no change so far.

[Britmarie]

[Kimbeely]

[ryno]

[Anonymous]

Jay00

I wouldn’t BS. It is confirmed with H & R Block that refunds will be there on the 28th of Jan, as well as Liberty Tax. I’m 100% sure refunds will be deposited THIS WEEK! Mark my words, I’ll be on this post on the 27th and 28th!

[mswall06]

I can’t access the page either…update!?….maybe….HOPEFULLY
LOL

[B F]

Big Tex that speed isn’t actually speed at all. Yeah, they accepted your return, but now watch – You will be stuck waiting forever for your refund to be approved and to get a DDD. Last year they started officially accepting returns on January 31st and people got DDDs on February 2nd. This year it’s already been 5 days since they started accepting returns and there have been NO DDDs. Their progress is actually MUCH MUCH SLOWER this year. It is not looking good for us at all.

[Ms miss]

Federal was accepted on jan20
State still pending

It’s hard for me to trust WMR. I’ve filed with Taxact for several years, never had a problem. Before that I manually did my own taxes and soon after comparing my figures to taxact’s I became confident in the accuracy of their software and the irs recommended them. A couple of years I filed early I had my refund in 3 to 4 days after being accepted the quickest I’ve ever seen. One year WMR didn’t update at all and the money was already in the bank, checked WMR a couple of days later it finally updated from 1 bar to 3. Then one year it took forever, gave me a deposit date, a couple of days later the deposit date changed. Last year I filed early and it took a full 21 days~ people who filed after me received their money before I did. This year I took a lump sum and had to file a 1099-R which I’m hoping doesn’t affect anything + the usual EIC form. I think their will be action taken on a lot of returns next week but I wouldn’t be surprised if the money is their before WMR updates.

I also noticed that tax act has a delay in relaying information , because this year I filed on the 17th was accepted by the irs on the 20th per taxact email, but my return was already being processed before I received the email, I noticed it because WMR was already updated.

Everyone the is trying to get a copy of their Transcript to get a “jump” on a DDD is wasting their time as well as quite likely “jamming” up the system and making it worse for everyone else… FOR NO REASON. By the time the transcript is posted and you can read it the DDD determination has already been made and “passed on” to the taxpayer AND all the codes that people think help them somehow serve no purpose at all. Heres one more thing, The new IRS software has monitoring and tracking software which monitors things like how many times we access transcripts page, WMR, ETC…. and the software uses this info as well as other info (not sure what that is) and then does some sort of Math to determine if a person needs a “closer look” The thought being if someone is freaking out about getting the refund and is going nuts trying everything 50 times a day and the software determines that that person has had tax issues in the past, has a large refund coming or excessive deductions or WHATEVER it determines well then it red flags the return, A human then needs to manually review it and the explanation that was given to me was that at this point “nobody gets in any hurry” to get it done and get the refund sent./ Im not going to sit here and say that this info came from the IRS director or something stupid like that but I DEFIANTLY would head the warning because it IS accurate info… Wouldn’t have spent the time to write all this if it wasn’t… The Math from the new software made a projection last year that if everyone would have done NOTHING at all but check WMR just ONCE a day that the refunds would have had a 12% increase in the speed at which they were processed and completed across the board… Many factors came into play with this and I don’t even pretend to understand the mathematical algorithms that determine this but what I do understand is this, NOTHING you do will speed up your return, any pre-posted WMR info you think you have may or may not be accurate and this has been proven time after time, just read these posts about all the people with incorrect DDDs, One bar but deposit was made, etc… Its not helping you and its hurting ALL OF US !!! Also follow this link and this is just basic info on the IRS site explaining how all of this is just a waste of time…
