Refund

Hi, i filled 1/18

Accepted 1/27 i jaf the path act untill the 15th and now it says ( return being processed) i called and talked to a irs representative and she stated they will be updateing by the 24th and refunds to hit the end of last week of feb or first few days of march

Funny, I was reading your post thinking 🤔 🤔 "I don't remember writing that " 🤣 My situation mirrors yours verbatim. I've read ddd could be between 2/22 & 3/2 for the early filers w/ EIC. Until then I'll be #ImpatientlyWaiting  😒

Thank you Critter for the clear grammatical explanation of what’s going on with Federal/State tax refunds. I guess the prolonged process has everyone on edge but I now understand. I’ve had the same issue as most and I didn’t read a post where someone admitted to filing EITC/the other one lol but I did so now I can stop checking every morning because it’s only updated once overnight and just wait until after the 22nd of February. I filed February 3rd and compared to previous taxes within 2 weeks I had a refund date but new year new process I suppose. #itiswhatitis The government won’t speed things up for us no matter how bad we need it. Hopefully by next week we are surprised with Direct Deposit Dates!!!!

If they accepted it on 1/22/20, it has not  been over 21 days. Actually,  today is about the 20th day because you don't count weekends or holidays; this past Monday was a holiday. Next, IRS usually updates the where's my refund only once a week on Wednesday. IRS generally makes return deposits on Wednesday's and Friday's. Also, sometimes the app says it is still processing but the refund is already in your account. Finally, the IRS did state that if you are filing earned income credit or child care credit you may not receive your refund until the first week of March but in the past it would come at the end of February.

Where did u get this information from? Would love to read it as well to ease my mind.

En el estatus  dice mi reembolso ya estaría listo el 17 de enero y paracetamol como ya reembolsado y no he recibido nada me gustaría saber si pueden ayudarme a saber que pasó . 

I have same issue. I submitted Jan 25, said it was accepted. It shoed in the IRS tracker as accepted. I checked to see on Feb 17 and there was no tracker and said it was still processing. Last year it took 1 week. I already received my state refund that I had to wait an additional week to file. Those took a only a week to get. My daughter's birthday is Feb 29, it comes once every 4 years, I was counting on that money for our trip to Disneyland. All is paid for except $1200 for passes. I'm worried.

Ridiculous! Mine did the exact same 

TT I think should update their software for Eitc and actc filers.. This year has been super irritating because although we have submitted our returns early because of the hold all filers who claimed credit tax returns did not begin processing until February 15th.. Factoring a holiday and weekends it just seems like a looooong drawn out process.  Now hopefully the benefit of filing early and being accepted early should result in our returns who are claiming credits to be processed first along with DD first. Patience is a virtue but in due time this too shall pass! Stay positive everyone😘

WMR on IRS.gov and the IRS2Go app will be updated with projected deposit dates for most early EITC/ACTC refund filers by February 22. So EITC /ACTC filers will not see an update to their refund status for several days after Feb. 15.
