Anyone else having trouble getting your income tax refund

Accepted January 30th. It's still processing. Waiting is horrible and you can't get a live person to talk to ugh. I just want and need my money. Anyone else having issues?

I heard some refunds may be slow this year but I don't have details. Did you file with TurboTax? There were fraud issues that are now resolved.

I haven't filed yet.

Re: Anyone else having trouble getting your income tax refund

I saw on the news that the IRS laid off a bunch of employees and our refunds could be later than usual. Less people to answer phones and get the refunds out.

I am going today where AARP does them for free but are electronically filed which they say is faster. I have an appt. but usually have to wait anyway. Free is good but I hate the wait.

The last couple of years have been fast refunds.

I filed mine on Feb 4 and haven't received mine yet.

I filed with TurboTax online on Jan. 16th, even though IRS wasn't accepting returns yet. And my refund was deposited into my account on Jan. 30th.

I did my family's taxes using H&R Block software on Feb 6. E-filed all and every one of them got theirs back within 10 days. Two were nieces with no house so just a 1040 but the other two had Schedules A and B. All returns were e-filed and all used direct deposit.

Heavens - I haven't even dropped mine off at an accountant yet. I probably should have done it right away

There are times when you must speak, not because you are going to change the opposing side, but because if you do not speak, they have changed you.

Click on the link above and you will need ssn, how you filed (head of household, married but filing separate, etc) and the exact dollar amount It will tell you if it's received, approved and when it will be paid.
