We apologize, but your return processing has been delayed beyond the normal timeframe.

I am a poor /financially white Irish woman who has been audited every year for the EIC for the first 8 years I claimed it from 1997 to 2005. Life is not always nefarious. It could be one of 3 things randomly even though it feels person . Or because the amounts and and children claimed do not make sense to the IRS.  Or it could be fraud .now I do not know you so I always go with the most positive out look until it is proven otherwise . By year 4 if these audits I was getting I figured it is random.  Year 5 I got a tax pro to help out turns out the first several were  random the last 3 we're looked into because of my husband once we got married I was suppose to file injured spouse so I would get my side of the taxes back he owed child support for his other 2 kids .  Hell he still owes the same amount for them 3 kids to this day . They are in their late 20s and early 30s . So probably had 0 to do with the color of your skin.  

That is showing you last year's 3rd stimulus. It appears it is one of 2 things happening here. If you go to your full transcript at the bottom you will see the amount you are gonna get when you filled with a minus Sign in front and there may be another amount under it with a minus Sign. So if you have that either it is the Second amount which is less then what you originally expected is what u will get and if you figure it out so example 4227-1400=2827 so original amount was 4227I was getting back now the government thinks each tax payer should foot the bill for the millions that got the 1400and only tax payers need to pay it back so I would only be getting 2827or.   4227+2827=7054 will be deposited separately  as you see there are 2different dates on your transcript in 2022 so you are gaining . But honestly the way the government works it is so much more likely to be the 1st option . So we are all getting less .And paying back that nice 3rd stimulus that didn't pay squat since the gas had doubled the food has tripled they are forcing vaccines and people are getting fired left and right which you can not get unemployment if you get fired due to refusing vaccine or not proving any exemption as well .

It has yet to be processed. I’d expect a delay but you shouldn’t panic. They claim they’ll get everything together before the deadline.

@Taxmiser 

The IRS is good at making people panic. This is a message everyone is receiving so that they can ensure the correct Economic Impact payments are issued.

@Alishka22 

i’ve had this message for 2 weeks now, going on 3 😞 there’s no update on my transrpt of them even receiving my return yet either

I’m getting the message “we apologize for the delay message we are still processing” message it change to that Saturday morning and was just wondering how long did that message stay up for some?
