Ok I E-filed and IRS accepted it on the 1/22/20 I thought was wired because they said they was not a accepting until the 27th. I looked at where’s my refund on the 1/25/20 it had one bar said was accepted. On 2/5/20 it went to the PATH act and stayed like that until 2/16/20 Message changed to we received your refund and is processing no bars nothing. My turbo tax says refund expected on 2/12/20 obviously that didn’t happen been way past 21 days. Has anyone else have this problem?

Hey did the IRS ever contact you about your return? I still haven’t receive mine and I file it same date as you.

I contacted them twice. And in the 2nd call I requested an advocate. The tax advocate was supposed to call me yesterday never got a call. Called the advocate office today left a voicemail. Hopefully they will call me tomorrow. I filed and got accepted the 29th of January hopefully this gets resolved soon.

I filed end of January and have not seen a refund, no letter in the mail. I tried calling and there is no person to talk to right now. I'm getting nervous as I really need the money.

If accepted by the IRS use the federal tax refund website to check the refund status - https://www.irs.gov/refunds
If accepted by the state use this TurboTax support FAQ to check the state tax refund status - https://ttlc.intuit.com/questions/1899433-how-do-i-track-my-state-refund

 

After the tax return has been Accepted by the IRS (meaning only that they received the return) it will be in the Processing mode until the tax refund has been Approved and then an Issue Date will be available on the IRS website.
See this IRS website for federal tax refund FAQ's - https://www.irs.gov/refunds/tax-season-refund-frequently-asked-questions
If over 21 days since being Accepted by the IRS and the tax refund is still Processing you can call the IRS and speak with an IRS agent concerning your tax refund.
Call the IRS: 1-800-829-1040 hours 7 AM - 7 PM local time Monday-Friday
When calling the IRS do NOT choose the first option re: "Refund", or it will send you to an automated phone line.
So after first choosing your language, then do NOT choose Option 1 (refund info). Choose option 2 for "personal income tax" instead.
Then press 1 for "form, tax history, or payment".
Then press 3 "for all other questions."
Then press 2 "for all other questions."
- When it asks you to enter your SSN or EIN to access your account information, don't enter anything.
- After it asks twice, you will get another menu.

Press 2 for personal or individual tax questions.
Then press 4 for all other inquiries
It should then transfer you to an agent.

I filed on 3/2 and was expecting the refund on 3/25.  You can't speak to a live body at the IRS now.  I think all you can do is send them a letter at this point.  Their refund status page just states that the return is being processed.  It has been a month now.

The return was ACCEPTED  for processing ... and the return is being processed.  When the IRS is done processing the return the refund will be APPROVED to be disbursed and then it will be released ... watch the IRS site for the most current info :  https://sa.www4.irs.gov/irfof/lang/en/irfofgetstatus.jsp
