Well the end of the road has finally come for me….. Called the IRS last week….. Found out that my return went into a non postable paper return unit that will hold the return and take exactly 8 weeks to process it out.,…. So being that I forgot to sign my return and they send it back they started counting the eight weeks all over again of course…… And on the June 16th which was exactly the end of my 8 weeks… I got a direct deposit date for the 20th of June… And it is pending on my account as of today which is the 19th…. So it is over….. I haven’t seen any updates from anybody else…. But my case is now as of tomorrow closed 😁😁😁

[Trishalla Bell]

Hey out there any updates…… I called the IRS this past Friday….. They told me they did not see anything in the system as of yet for me but they said in about 2 weeks call back because it will be exactly 8 weeks…. Since return was first mailed.. checked WMR on Tuesday…. And my return is in the system….. So hopefully I’ll be seeing a direct deposit date very soon…..

[Trishalla Bell]

Got a package from the IRS yesterday in the mail…. I forgot to sign it…. Signed it put it in the mail this morning… I will give them credit… though they didn’t take that long as I thought they would for something like that… Now it’s just a wait to see how long they will take to make a deposit😁😁😁😁😁

[Trishalla Bell]

Well I guess this is an update…. Checked online and they told me to check with your tax preparer otherwise your tax return will be sent six weeks after you mailed it… But it’s not giving me the same message so I’m assuming it’s possibly updating…. Some movement is better than done I’ll roll with it….

[Trishalla Bell]

We’ll see next week I expect by Saturday I should update hopefully….. But for future reference I know that you need to call the IRS before November if you have a change in your address….. Because that way you can get your identification PIN to file electronically…. I moved between that time and could not get another pin through the website…..😐😐😐😐

[Trishalla Bell]

Hopefully mine will show up and where’s my refund next week Thursday is exactly 4 weeks….

[Trishalla Bell]

Well no updates here still haven’t seen anything…. Hopefully by the first week of April but we’ll see

[Trishalla Bell]

By the time line and guidelines… mine’s should be actually on a desk today but we’ll see…. In the past my return has gone for manual processing after filing electronically and I still got it within a month….. But also that was pre path Act…… I won’t start inquiring or calling the IRS to the first week of April….. I figure at that point hopefully somebody is actually working on it….

[Trishalla Bell]

BOA dropped at 3am for me

[Trishalla Bell]

waiting on BOA now…my paycheck usually posts at 4am….

[Trishalla Bell]

@Kelly lynn….don’t feel bad….I’m over here with a cheap Lil BOA flash light too…lol

[Trishalla Bell]

Agreed… check sbbt….my fees for eps were taken out yesterday morning….so ad long as you see it in sbbt….you should be fine.. my guess wmr won’t show the update until after the 23.. ..I checked my wmr this morning….says the same

[Trishalla Bell]

actions speak louder than words

[Trishalla Bell]

yes I did…don’t know about the whole disbursement date don’t know..good thing is..the money is there so you should get it on time..I understand.. my eps didn’t update until 10am this morning

[Trishalla Bell]

I updated in EPS financial they are in the process of sending it to the bank

[Trishalla Bell]

I am paying 40 out of my refund thru efile….but those high outrageous fees..no way….

[Trishalla Bell]

I’m paying fees out of my refund and it’s going to a bank account…..eps financial, according to there system has not received my money yet..

[Trishalla Bell]

you should post that to the igotmyrefund Facebook page too

[Trishalla Bell]

I got 2/23 ddd this morning

[Trishalla Bell]

it is updating ddd for 2/24 are coming out now

[Trishalla Bell]

@Ellie…lol….PATH…made this a hot bloody mess.. this the IRS sent me the identity pin…after screwing up the last 2 years (2014 the year of self id….2015…unpostable) so the one year that things should be smooth this bs..

[Trishalla Bell]

don’t feel bad filed/accepted 1/30 still no change

[Trishalla Bell]

ok…R/A 1/30……WHO WENT FROM THE PATH TO BRING PROCESSED WITH AN AMOUNT ON THE LEFT

[Trishalla Bell]

lol….funny but not funny….but expected lol…..just don’t know what to say…..

[Trishalla Bell]

Most likely it means this

IRS has confirmed WMR will not update until 2/16 along with dates of 1st WMR EIC/ACTC DDD updates.

“Where’s My Refund?” Begins Updating Feb. 16 for EITC and ACTC Filers
By law, the IRS must hold Earned Income Tax Credit or the Additional Child Tax Credit refunds until Feb. 15. Taxpayers will begin to see refunds claiming EITC/ACTC the week of Feb. 27. “Where’s My Refund?” will update for EITC/ACTC refunds beginning Feb. 16, with the vast majority updating by Feb. 18.”

[Trishalla Bell]

I used efile…which uses ESP Financial….was able to log in….but it did not have a disbursement date

[Trishalla Bell]

Hmmmmm….. You don’t know what to believe ……everytime I’v heard and read about what people have been told by an its agent is written in imperial butter spread and sure isn’t in stone…. Lol….. But we can only wait and see… Yeah I heard about a big update….. But just don’t know….about the only thing I can do this weekend is go cash my Lil biweekly paycheck… Get a bottle of wine…. And sit myself down some where…. Lol it’s too much…

[Trishalla Bell]

This is truly the most interesting thing…..I hope next time the it’s plans way ahead lol….but I’ve been watching and reading posts…I just not getting my hopes up….and I’m not going to even speculate…as tensions are high….and be taken completely out of context…because since I have heard about the “big update” for Saturday…..I have read 20 different things….so my theory is wait and see….

[Trishalla Bell]

it’s getting all to interesting as we move closer to the 15th…..just watching and waiting at this point

[Trishalla Bell]

@Jessica….with all due respect….I created this thread for the PATH message….transcripts however….different thing…..no disrespect….everyone is losing their mind over them…getting stressed out..and accumulating more gray hair over a transcript ….myself decided not to deal with it. ..

[Trishalla Bell]

@Jessica….with all due respect….I created this thread for the PATH message….transcripts, however…are a different beast…..people are losing their mind over transcripts….getting stressed out….and accumulating more gray hairs then theyou should….myself…didn’t bother with them….sorry no disrespect

@ NiKesha

I’m not taking away that a transcript….can be good…..because now people are demanding and asking to see what the irs does and how they do it….because we in America just go with the flow…..

But IRS has come out and said that being able to order a transcript is NOT a magic way to get your refund processed any quicker…nor does it mean your approved or even processed….especially in my case last year….

so I thank you….and I am very humbled….by your comment…

and transcripts DO mean something now…..

it means follow up and stay vigilant about what’s going on with your return…your refund….and where your tax dollars are really going….

much love……..

[Trishalla Bell]

break…..can’t wait to get a new phone at the end of the month LMAO

[Trishalla Bell]

but shouldn’t your tax preparer or the tax software you used before have your income from last year….your w2…..just saying…..but that’s why I created this thread to get away from transcript talk…..because I hate to see my fellow brothers and sisters stressing….really over something that is really not going to make you or bread you

[Trishalla Bell]

please stop unnecessary gray hair growth worrying about transcripts

[Trishalla Bell]

Why….you may ask….last year I was able to call and get my transcript and my return had not even been touched by the irs….it was in a pile. for manual processing lol….then still got my refund in a timely manner….so I learned last year….a transcript will not make me or break me….at least in my situation…..and this year….my return…actually posted to the master file without a problem….so I decided to just sit myself down somewhere….and not stress…

[Trishalla Bell]

with all due respect …this thread is for the path message…..transcripts are a different beast… people are losing their mind over them….myself I chose to let the irs do its work….

[Trishalla Bell]

oh by the way….. didn’t order a transcript LMAO

[Trishalla Bell]

Check the WMR portal this morning-Status bars gone- PATH ACT message appears in the portal for me…..

[Trishalla Bell]

wow..the block is hot….and not hr block….lol….getting notifications off the chain….the irs done already to me to sit myself down somewhere until after the 15th lol

[Trishalla Bell]

If. anyone gets the actual PATH MESSAGE when checking WMR….for their return..accepted on 1/30….let us know.. have a great weekend :-)…..and folks please don’t stress…..let the IRS do its work

[Trishalla Bell]

tax season after finding out that many had received a ddd for their refund and I did not I made a call to the irs……and when I asked the operator what was going on
…she explained that she did know why my return did not post to the master file….it was not anything I did…it was the system….and nor was there an error or a capture on my return…..my return was put in a pile for manual processing….so asked for a transcript….she put me on hold….came back and told me she was able to access my transcript and sent a copy to me…..I did not get a ddd until two weeks later…..and when I ordered the transcript my return had not been touched by computer or human hands…and it’s all in the igotry refund grapevine….I posted everything that happened so I’m not making this up….the ability to order transcripts has nothing to do with your return being completely processed….it may be hard for you to understand because it didn’t happen to you….but it did for me…..that’s why I know not to believe the hype… after that I know there is no need to order it…because it doesn’t mean anything..now if you want to use the whole “ordering a transcript” as a feel good method find….but be real about.. now I just know better..

[Trishalla Bell]

ummm yes you can order a transcript if your return is not processed I did it last tax season…..mines was not ib the master file…. they sent it to me……my return posted into the master file 2 weeks later after they processed my return by hand…the on the third week I got a direct deposit date then a refund….don’t mislead. …your not the irs… I’m not….but I know better to mislead when EVERY CASE IS DIFFERENT

[Trishalla Bell]

@will NOPE……LAST YEAR I ORDERED MY TRANSCRIPT AND MY RETURN WAD NOT PROCESSED…..NOT POSTED TO THE MASTER FILE…AND HAD NOT EVEN BEEN TOUCHED BECAUSE IT WAS IN A PILE FOR MANUAL PROCESSING…..THE ABILITY TO ORDERED A TRANSCRIPT DOES NOT MEAN YOUR RETURN HAS COMPLETED PROCESSING IN NO SHIP SHAPE OR FORM….AND THE IRS HAS COME OUT AND CLARIFIED THAT…….EVERYONE RUNS TO REQUEST A TRANSCRIPT AND IT DOESN’T DO ANYTHING FOR YOUR RETURN….NOW….I AM SPEAKING FROM MY EXPERIENCE……BUT TO SAY THAT CAM’S REFUND IS PROCESSED IS A QUESTION ONLY THE IRS CAN ANSWER….BECAUSE NONE OF US WORK FOR THE IRS

[Trishalla Bell]

please do your own taxes….they’re are to many services that will walk you through with paying high fees

[Trishalla Bell]

ordering a transcript does not expedite your refund…..whether return is posted in the master file or not….you can receive it…but now you may have to call after many failed attempts online

[Trishalla Bell]

02-04-2017

[Trishalla Bell]

unfortunately there has been way too much confusion on being able to order transcripts…..and what it means….. when in reality…you can’t tell….here has been my experience…..last year my return was kicked out the system and did not post to the master file and had to be processed manually ….I called the irs and they mailed my transcript WITHOUT BEING POSTED TO THE MASTER FILE….so you never know….BUT THE ASSOCIATION OF ORDERING TRANSCRIPTS AND THAT IT MEANS YOUR APPROVED MUST STOP…….BECAUSE THAT IS NOT TRUE…..

[Trishalla Bell]

@Cam….it means you can order transcript…..nothing more…..nothing less….unfortunately there has been way too much confusion on being able to order transcripts…..and what it means….. when in reality…you can’t tell….here has been my experience…..last year my return was kicked out the system and did not post to the master file and had to be processed manually ….I called the irs and they mailed my transcript WITHOUT BEING POSTED TO THE MASTER FILE….so you never know…..at this point as long as you have checked WMR….and it says your return is being processed and you have 152 that explains the new 2/15 law..DON’T EVEN STRESS

[Trishalla Bell]

I had a simple return this year….one w2….one child to claim….IRS sent me a pin….

[Trishalla Bell]

just like I said…..not even stalking WMR UNTIL THE 15TH lol

[Trishalla Bell]

Im not even going to stalk WMR this year…..they said that EIC would be delayed until 2/15/2017…so I won’t check until the 15th

[Trishalla Bell]

start a thread for Credit Karma…..so you can get some support from others who may have problems…..because I’m sure your not only one

[Trishalla Bell]

, the master file updates Monday’s with transcripts available Tuesday’s and Wednesday morning for WMR for daily and Thursday’s with transcripts available Friday’s and a WMR update on Saturday morning for weekly

[Trishalla Bell]

I finally did get my refund on the 9th.. it showed approval the Saturday before…. I guess after they took it out of manual processing they stuck it back in the system it went through and it worked out

[Trishalla Bell]

@trelesia….Now I can’t say if the issue is your return was unpostable…. but I really feel in these situations of a unpostable return they should have a status for this……in Where’s My Refund……so you understand your return could not post to the irs master file…..

[Trishalla Bell]

@trelesia the only thing I can say is call the IRS
…. see if you return was unpostable
… see if some reason they sent it to specialized processing for manual processing…… I called six days after filing when I saw that people who filed the same day that I did we’re getting a refund soon…. and that’s when I was told by the IRS agent that my refund was unpostable and that it was going to be manually processed and then put back in the system. …..

[Trishalla Bell]

MAJOR UPDATE! !!!!…. about last Wednesday my where’s my refund status changed to we have you returned and its being processed…. so I questioned if they actually had my return and they were actually working on it ……woke up this morning I have a direct deposit date of March 9th after my refund was unpostable so folks just hang in there

[Trishalla Bell]

MAJOR UPDATE!!!!!! Filed on the 13th accepted 13th called the IRS the 19th was told that my return was unpostable and that it would have to be manually processed…… was told it could take 6 to 9 weeks but the IRS agent did let me order my transcript ……last Wednesday my bars disappeared and I questioned that because…. I thought maybe that means they have my return and they are actually working on i…….t woke up this morning I have a direct deposit date of March 9th the process is finally over….. well it won’t be over until I get the money in my account

[Trishalla Bell]

@Alex. And if you still have Where’s My Refund bars….. when you check your return online…. at least yours is still in the system…. the same day I called the IRS and they told me that my return has been sent to specialized processing…… that is the same exact day I lost my bars….. and I haven’t seen them since… I just get the message your tax return is still being processed a refund date will be provided when available

[Trishalla Bell]

@Alex….Yes…..me right here….filed on the 13th got my State back on the 26……However….when checking the forum I saw others getting a ddd….when they filed and was accepted same-day as myself…….so the 19th called the IRS was told my return was unpostable…..and has gone to the specialized processing unit for manual processing…..but they did let me order my transcript……no codes no captures our there for me….. transcript shows I’m getting a refund…..so yes I kinda in the same boat as you……

[Trishalla Bell]

Filed and accepted 2/13 got a deposit on the 26th….however for some reason my refund was reduced by a hundred dollars….and my fed taxes are unpostable so…..don’t know what in the double hockey sticks is going on this tax season

[Trishalla Bell]

Well I ordered my transcripts two weeks ago called Friday afternoon. On Monday morning still no direct deposit date I filed on the 13th was accepted the 13th so the transcript theory is not true for me maybe for some but definitely not me

[Trishalla Bell]

@ Josh I got my transcript on Monday and still don’t have a direct deposit date so I understand

[Trishalla Bell]

Well filed the 13th was accepted the 13th last Friday after this week my return has been specialized processing for one week ……no change…. but on another note I did receive my Michigan State tax return it was reduced by about 100 bucks why don’t know I’m assuming they’ll send me a letter why at least I got something back for right now

[Trishalla Bell]

I was able to order a transcript but however my return is unpostable so it’s being manually processed so I have a transcript but no direct deposit date

[Trishalla Bell]

UPDATE! !!!!!!! WELL….AFTER REQUSTING MY TRANSCRIPT BY PHONE ON FRIDAY….I GOT MY TRANSCRIPT TODAY IN THE MAIL…….WMR STATUS HAS NOT CHANGED THOUGH….STAYING POSITIVE

[Trishalla Bell]

UPDATE! !!!!!!! WELL….AFTER REQUSTING MY TRANSCRIPT BY PHONE ON FRIDAY….I GOT MY TRANSCRIPT TODAY IN THE MAIL…….WMR STATUS HAS NOT CHANGED THOUGH….STAYING POSITIVE

[Trishalla Bell]

Please update me when you get your dd and how long it took to post after the irs sent it…as I am using a green dot card as well….smh maybe I just should have used rush card like always never had delays with that

[Trishalla Bell]

It means it’s back in the system being processed……….it means it was probably in specialized processing…..my status went to your return is being processed and a refund date will be provided when available this Friday but also I found out when calling the irs…. that they had send my return to specialized processing because the system could process it…..not anything that did or made an error …don’t owe any money or anything like that….but if you have the WMR bar that means they are processing still but it’s back in thw system were as before it was probably out

[Trishalla Bell]

Filed the 13th accepted 13th started a forum for people who filed the 13th…….. many of those who filed the same day and after started getting a direct deposit dates so I called the IRS ask for transcript….. they told me that the system for some reason could not process the return….. it had to be manually processed….. so it is going to the specialized processing unit….they told me I need to do nothing….. I do not owe any money there is no auditing thats going on and there’s no captures out there……

checked WMR this morning …..no status bar…..

It reads this
Your tax return is still being processed.

A refund date will be provided when available.

The good thing about this situation is I know the are working on it…..

Last tax season my return went to specialized processing because I had to Id….

It was in specialized processing for a week then the following week I got a direct deposit date……

hopefully this situation will follow the same trend and I won’t have to wait that long

[Trishalla Bell]

UPDATE!!!!!! NO BARS when checking wheres my refund….as crazy as it his sounds I’m relieved…..lol… because I now know specialized processing is working on my return……last year specialized processing had my return…..it was a bout a week later I got a ddd so hopefully it will follow the same trend…..

[Trishalla Bell]

UPDATE! !!!!!’Your tax return is still being processed.

A refund date will be provided when available.
