I e-filed my federal return through TurboTax on 1/25. It was received by the IRS on 1/27 and updated to accepted by the IRS on 1/28. I filed my state return on 1/30, got the accepted notice on 1/31, and received that return via direct deposit today, 2/11. I've never gotten my state return before my federal, ever. When I check the Where's My Refund? tool on the IRS website it has only one bar signifying that it has been accepted and is being processed, and it hasn't updated since the 28th when it was initially accepted. It also gives me the Topic 152 notification, which just seems to be general info about how returns are processed. Has anyone else experienced this? I can't get the IRS on the phone to figure out what the holdup is.
Same here. Federal was accepted 1/27...no change since.
State return was accepted 1/30...approved 1/31...recieved 2/5.
This basically sucks.
sierrapeaks, what is the Where's My Refund tool on the IRS.gov site showing you? Just received, right?
I filed and was accepted on 1/27 and still on first bar of WMR as well...
Same we filled January 21 and we received an email approved the next day since from there still the same and we have house payment car payments coming next week smh
"sierrapeaks, what is the Where's My Refund tool on the IRS.gov site showing you? Just received, right?"
Yes. The IRS2GO and the IRS website always show the same information
Mines doesn't even have a bar. Keeps saying I can't check my status
I have a same situation , I got my CA refund before federal ,it has never happened last 12 years .
Thanks
Same here I filed on the 1st. Accepted on the 1st. But nothing since not even 1bar on WMR . But I received my state dd yesterday.
Yes I am currently experiencing the same thing. It just gives me topic 152 and they will not address it until after 21 days . Don’t know what is problem if turbo tax check for mistakes
Once the IRS accepts your federal return, all updates are taken over by them. Therefore, we don't have information about the status of your refund.
The IRS generally issues refunds within 21 days. If it's been less than 21 days, continue to check the IRS Where's My Refund? site for information about your refund status. If more than 21 days, we suggest calling the IRS to inquire about your refund. Go here for tips on reaching a live IRS agent when you call.
Same! We filed mid January and were accepted by federal & state on 1/27. Received our state refund this past Friday 1/7 (Ohio), but still on 1 bar for federal. I don’t “need” the money, but it’s frustrating!! “Extra” money is always nice!! It has never taken this long for us to get an update/refund.
Same! Someones Federal return was accepted on the 20th of Jan. and they are still in processing status too!
I'm not sure what your return was but if you had an earned income credit with the code you gave, (off irs site) the response says the earliest you will recieve your refund is the first week in March. It seems those with the earned income credit will not receive federal back till March.
I got my State tax's yesterday and i filed both on the same day on TurboTax but haven't gotten my Federal yet.
My status still hasn't been updated on the IRS.gov WMR tool. They sure are taking their time this year, huh?
The IRS estimates that most refunds will be sent within three weeks after your e-filed returns are accepted. Many refunds will come sooner. You can check the status of your refund by going to www.irs.gov/refunds. You can also click here to see a chart with estimated refund dates based on the date your return was accepted by the IRS. Some 2019 Federal Refunds will be delayed due to the Path Act. Please click here for more information.
I hope so because I sure hope I get mine tomorrow then .
Mines been accepted since the 29th and still nothin . According to the chart I should have it tomorrow but wheres my refund keeps saying processing. So we shall see. State was just file on the 10th. I usually get it with in 2 weeks. I sure hope its here tomorrow or before I leave the 21st on vacation or I might not be able to go.
"You can also click here to see a chart with estimated refund dates based on the date your return was accepted by the IRS."
That chart is useless
Same exact thing has happened to me, all the same acceptance dates I have he emails also for the 27th saying accepted . But the IRS tracking thing says received but not processed accepted or sent . I don’t understand and I also got my state tax return which wasn’t much but I’ve never gotten that one first . Very confused and also having a hard time getting answers
