I filed on 1/22 via TT online. Federal was accepted like an hour later, state was accepted overnight. TT is giving me DDD dates of 1/23-2/12 and WMR is still on the first bar, but I have the Tax Info 152 thingy. I’m hoping we see money this coming week, either federal or state (state usually deposits first).

[Gail]

Crystal I totally understand, my comment was directed at someone that said it only updates once a week, which is not true. I remember when I was waiting last year it would update several times throughout the week.

[Crystal]

WMR may update more than once a week, but for me, in past years, WMR hasn’t always updated by the time I have got my return back.

[Gail]

Omg come on, WMR updates more than once a week. Once we see the first DDD’s you will see them all throughout the week.

[rose 79]

still no changes

[Crystal]

The way it has worked for me the past few years is this: in 2013 I filed with HR Block, had fees taken out. I filed on 1/30 I believe. There was a glitch at the office I went to and my return was not filed until 2/6. I was accepted by the IRS 2/7 and got my refund on 2/14. WMR lost my bars after being accepted. It never updated to show a DDD. Last year, 2014, I filed via TT on 1/31, was accepted the next day, got my refund on 2/6. WMR never updated until after I got my deposit. Both years I had moved to a different address, dependents stayed the same, I file HOH 2 dependents with EIC and Child Tax credit. This year is the same so far, I filed 1/20, accepted same day about 5 minutes after. Showed on WMR right away. I honestly think that we will see money next week. As for the people who filed early last year and didn’t get a refund until far after I did, the IRS kicked all those early filers back to the end of the line. It wasn’t fair, but it happened. I am not saying the same will happen this year, but I would not be surprised. We also have to remember that with Obamacare, now they are checking to see if you had insurance and if they can penalize you. Should have already been done while you were filing but, who knows that our lovely governments real intentions are. I need this money just as bad as the next person. I need a car, am making a down payment on my house, and have to get my kids some clothes. But all we can do is sit back and wait. But in my strong opinion we should see something next week. And as for all the bars missing, chill out, it really is a glitch. There is no way that thousands of people are all being flagged like that.

[Bobby Mcinvaille]

Yeah Mark lol. Just if your like me and have never had this happen it can be scary when your used to at least seeing 1 bar or something.

[Jmac]

Nothing!!!????!!!!!!!!!

[Bobby Mcinvaille]

Crystal is still the same cycle normally? I have heard it was a glitch also but like I said I never freak out or anything just the first year I have seen this since I applied earlier then normal.

[mark]

Relax, WMR only updates like once a week, last year I got my refund before it even updated.

The more you freak out the longer it will seem, there will always be the people that get on here and tell you horror stories to get everyone riled up.

Also, dont flood the irs with phone calls, thats probably the easiest way to get pushed back to the back of the line.

[Bobby Mcinvaille]

Wow I hope we aren’t getting flagged but that’s a lot of people to flag which is basicly everyone who filed early.

[Crystal]

Bars disappearing is just a glitch. There is nothing wrong. I have had mine disappear in years past and have never had anything happen. Always got my money within a few weeks and no problems. Cheer up people…You woke up this morning…so it is a good day.

[Jmac]

“They” who????

[michelef]

they are saying it means we are flagged is this true

[Crystal]

Still waiting here too. I filed 1/20 via TT…accepted about 5 minutes later. Still showing 1 bar and tax topic 152. I know last year I filed on 1/31 never was approved…but got my money on 2/6. Two years ago I filed early but had issues with my lock HR Block and wasn’t filed until 2/6 and was accepted 2/7…got my money 2/14 that year. I believe we should be seeing some updates tomorrow night/ monday morning. We should also be seeing some money in the next few days if history repeats itself like i has time and time before.

[Amber]

I filed with turbo tax on 1/8 irs accepted on 1/12. One bar no changes since I was accepted.

[Itsmymoney]

The same thing happened to me and Im freaking out. Ive been researching since it happened and that’s not helping. If anyone has gone through it PLEASE explain. It seems like ALOT of people are going through it.

[Ineedmoney]

Filed 1/15, accepted 1/20, still at 1 bar in WMR, no change from yesterday

[tiffy]

I filed with liberty 01/20/15 it just says return received….and now when I try to check the santa Barbara tax products group to see if money is there it denies access so hopefully I see an upsate on irs to go app tomorrow. ANYONE FILE WITH LIBERTY TAX SERVICE??

[Yaminah]

These guys are getting people really depressed and ready to accept the worst case scenario.

[cbrooking77]

I filed with etax.com on 1.21.15 I was accepted the same day no change

[Jmac]

You guys are getting crazy calm down NOBODY has gotten a DDD rather you filed very early or on the 20th or later so you have nothing to worry about. Now if people start getting dates that filed after you thats when you should panic.

[Bobby Mcinvaille]

And yeah last year got my refund in 10 days from when I filed.

[Bobby Mcinvaille]

Man that really stinks yeah I guess I will not be filing early again. So I guess not to expect my refund till almost the end of February huh?

[Bobby Mcinvaille]

Last year I filed 1/31 accepted 2/1 got my refund 2/10 for fed. So I do now know what is going with the missing bars or anything but last year I file early it seems more of a hassle.

[Cafeazucartx]

The process takes longer when you file early. The last couple of years is when people notice the sting of having to wait longer:( this wasn’t always the case before. If you file early you got your return early. Not so anymore early filers get out back into que a lot of the time. I know I made this mistake and doing that last year and thought I was accepted early and getting my refund first but… No, I had to wait until feb 21 to get my refund. Sucks but that why I said I would never file early again. People that filed after me had their money way before me. It was so bad most people were done spending their return money before early filers got theirs last year.

[Yaminah]

The same thing happened to me. I was accepted on the 20th and my bars disappeared on the 22nd. It makes me worry and excited at the same time.

[alyssa]

I filed early was accepted 1/12 still only one bar and says it is being processed. Last year I got my refund on 2/6

[dkhaley97]

Anything new today? Still same on status, however I can log into our ‘online services’ and see that it has changed and they have gotten the return and it is currently being processed along with ‘Date of refund’ blank now.

[Bobby Mcinvaille]

I have been stuck on this since 1/20 before this I had the accepted bar. This is the first year I filed early was accepted on 1/13 through TT. Normally I file around the second week stuff opens. Anyone else stuck on this or know anything about it? I have topic 152 but that is it. I called and have no hold-ups. Have had the same situation for at least 7 years with nothing changing.

[Cafeazucartx]

Ts has me filing on the 20th accepted early on the 20th still one bar. No problems with disappearing bars but is this because I didn’t file early? I know I filed early last year and bars disappeared. I got code 1121 but refund was DD on 2/21. I notice my bars only going missing over the years when I file earlier than opening day. However I had to wait over a month for it because even though I was accepted early jan last year, I was put back into the pool as if I had filed on the opening day.

[give me my money]

[KA]

I am surprised so many people have had so many issues with HR Block. This is the fifth year I have filed with them using the online program. I’ve never once had any kind of issue. I even have filed my moms through them for her for the past three years. People had refunds delayed last year? I was accepted on opening day and had my refund by the 6th. This kind of baffles me.

[schmidtkids]

I’m totally confused as to when they do updates, seems like random times. I guess will just keep checking around noon everyday.

[Anonymous]

It’s my money and I want it now………lol

[Anonymous]

Nope still only one bar here.

[Anonymous]

Me too. I filed 1/16 accepted 1/16. Still only one bar on wmr and topic 152.

[Bobby Mcinvaille]

accepted 1/13 bars went away still stuck on “You refund is still being processed” never had this happen.

[Elle]

Accepted 1/21 and still one bar. No transcripts available.

[Nisha]

I’m still on the first bar and I was accepted on the 20th…..do they do updates on the weekend?

[Bobby Mcinvaille]

I had bars before they opened and they went away Tuesday when they opened I am still sitting at “Your refund is still being processed” I do know what the hold up is I have no differences in prior years or no offsets.

[Jay]

None. Still one bar.

[Natalie]

Filed 22nd January accepted 22nd January. No ddd yet, but shows tax topic 152

[Danna]

I was a part of the batch last year. My refund went into my account on 1/28. Year before, on the 2nd. They no longer have “a scheduled”.

[Bobby Mcinvaille]

Same thing here bar went away and still nothing this morning or any other time it has been this way since at least Tuesday when they opened.

[Bobby Mcinvaille]

Do you guys actually have a bar? I had the accepted bar before they started accepting but now it has been stuck on “Your return is still being processed” anyone else with this still?

[Pattyycakess]

I checked the pa where’s my refund this morning and mine also says that it was processed allow 4-6 weeks to be mailed

[Anonymous]

I think it depends on the state. My state of Florida Dept. Of revenue is HORRIBLE!! They took forever to apply the amount, meanwhile the payments that were coming out of my husbands paycheck continued to come out … By the time they applied the money we ended overpaying and had to wait till OCTOBER to get it back from the state!!!

[Anonymous]

It does take much longer to get a return when injured spouse is filed. my husband and I had to file one year because of his child support arrears. I don’t know how they calculated how much was mine accept for the child tax credit for 2 child tax credits for my children from another marriage. I want to say that it was April when we finally got our return!

[Ms Mitcj]

Refund tracker gives me information doesn’t match. Accepted on 1/13. Called number doesn’t give an option for 2014 tax year! Never had this happen before.

[Ms Mitcj]

Ga refund tracker gives me information doesn’t match message. Got accepted on 1/13/15. When call it doesn’t give an option for 2014 tax year. Never had this happen to me before.

[Anonymous]

This is driving me insane. Kansas Department of Revenue says state refund deposited on the 22nd and yet still no sign of it on my Greendot card.

[Anonymous]

I woke up this morning to a new update on my PA state return:

I just checked now and rcvd the following message:
Your refund in the amount of $***.** was processed but not yet mailed. Please allow 4 to 6 weeks for your refund to be received.

[elizabeth]

I got this tonight

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.

[elizabeth]

Julie it’s franchise tax board.

[rachel]

All this info about refund cycle charts none of them come from the irs anymore they are just charts made up by people I found on that said I may have it next week and one that said payments will star as late as the second week in feb. I’m just anxiously waiting … every year I have gotten it within 10 days of my acceptance. And every year I still lose sleep over it….. can’t wait for a ddd last year I didn’t get my ddd it went straight from pending to sent…. sigh…

[Juju1]

CT Return filed and accepted on 1/20 deposited 1/24!!! Yay, now wish WMR updates still one bar:(

[Anonymous]

My Oklahoma state was approved on 1/22/15

[Cam]

Great news! I filed my Missouri return with TT And was accepted on 1/20 and my refund was dd on 1/22.

Missouri is usually pretty fast, but that was shockingly fast.

[julie]

What is CA FTB I just saw someone mentioned that

[Tiffany]

I filed mine w/out my W2’s, 1099s… and all those other forms but was very precise and erred on the safe side not claiming any arbitrary deductions. Well, two days after I sent in my taxes I get a freaking letter from Washington State Unemployment. They sent me a 1099-G for unemployment payed in which I PAYED BACK!!! They decided I wasn’t due unemployment and make me pay them back hundreds of dollars and then call it income? What a freaking SCAM!

I hope it doesn’t foul up what I sent them. I’ll so angry if it does.

No change for me. First Bar only.

[Anonymous]

1 bar for me too. However they update between 3 am and 6 am eastern time…. there’s still hope!

[Anonymous]

I’m with you..no movement on Fed return, this is my first time ever getting anything back on state so its definitely a bonus for me..praying for ddds and quick updates for all of us ;)

[Patti]

Check nslds.ed.gov. You’ll need your fafsa pin to check on the status of your Federal student loans. It will tell you if you’re in default. And if you are, you will definitely receive an offset. The automated system has been glitchy, so if you want some kinda peace of mind, I would talk to a rep, but even they are emotionless/unhelpful in such a stressful situation. Your best bet is nslds. Setting up an arrangement with said institution collecting on your defaulted loan will not stop the offset. They will take whatever amount is left. I have received two offsets, myself.

[Anonymous]

I filed on the 8th of Jan and was accepted on the12th of Jan but the only thing I have gotten so far is a change from having a bar that says your tax return is accepted to your tax return is being processed a direct deposit date will be provided when available. I even got the e-mail stating it was accepted. The other difference I noticed was on turbo tax my date change to a later date. Very weird.

[daniel]

If I owe for outstanding student loans will that show up as a “offset”. I have some loans, but are not too old yet and really haven’t been after me for them yet. Question I guess is this, If I call the offset # and it says that there is not any then they are not actively pursuing the collection of these student loans yet ? Now, If not and I pay on them every month like im supposed to will they still take a “chunk” next year if I’m due a large refund or will they allow me to continue to pay manageable monthly payments ?

[Crystal]

WMR and IRS2GO are up for me…still just one bar. Transcripts aren’t available…and last years address is still the info they have…ho humm

[Michelle]

@tswan20, Thank you.

[Anonymous]

When I log in on state it says your 2013 return has been received and is being processed…idk what to think about that because they took my entire refund last year because I had a lien placed on me. So I’m guessing it’s an error on their part but no info on 2014 return as of yet

[amanda]

I am only assuming that ddds are coming very soon . I called last week and had a off set. Then called just now and no longer do. I had applied for consolidation on my defaulted loans back in November and as of January 21 the company paid my loans of. So I am unsure if the irs already sent dept of education that money or what? Confusing process

[Cafeazucartx]

Just checked still one bar

[tswan20]

Hope this helps

[snickets]

Wow your all lucky . I am in PA and I get 0 dollars for state ! But I filed on the 9th accepted for FED on the 12th just like you all. And I have 1 bar it hasn’t changed and I use NETSPEND. I HOPE WE all get our FED refund . I’m getting mad now that there’s nothing on the bars that they haven’t changed

[Michelle]

Ugh. …so much for that idea.

[JG]

I just checked and still at one bar
