I'm in the same boat. HOWEVER......what I find completely ABSURD is my friend filed 2 days before I did.....THEY DID GET EIC ALSO and they ALREADY HAVE THEIR MONEY!!!! so its a total lie that the IRS cannot issue refunds with EIC on it before late February!!! I did her taxes on 1/29.....she had money in hand on 2/7!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

My sis in law has 1 lid and got hers. I have filed same way for last 18yrs same dependant same social always got approved i hope for approval time not that important
I've had the same dependent for 21 years too...It's ridiculous that they changed the refund release from Feb 15th to Feb 27th. I have a $500 electric bill to pay and I was counting on that.
I just want to know I have been approved the wait I can deal with I went from accepted to topic 15 to PATH act and I know my refund status mid Feb
They didn’t change it from Feb. 15 to Feb. 27. They said don’t expect it to hit your bank until around Feb. 27. They start pushing out refunds Feb and officially accepting them. Depending when you file. I always file the end of January and get mine right around the 20th
Last year was Feb 15th..this year is Feb 27th. How is that not a change? They batch process all those returns when they accept them and the software then batch releases them to deposit on the 27th or the day before. My return was accepted Jan 30th by the way.
So this wait means approval I just have to wait
Lord. Haley. When you get yours before 2/27. Maybe then, you’ll actually listen.
They said don’t expect it to hit your account NOT that it will hit your account on Feb. 27. I was approved 1/30 and I’m getting mine next week.
Last year I was approved and given the money less than a week later. ITS POSSIBLE. AGAIN, they did NOT say they are not releasing funds until 2/27
Funds start releasing to people in batches to banks. 2/16-2/17
Ok I am not concerned as when as much as if I HAVE NOT been DENIED by now that means approval but just wait till mid to end Feb
That's not what the IRS web site says...bsch. If you read the 2017 vs the 2018 notice made by the IRS. But please post when you get yours and I will do the same. I'm just going by what I copied from the IRS web site:
2017-To comply with the law, the IRS will hold the refunds on EITC and ACTC-related returns until Feb. 15th.
2018-The IRS expects the earliest EITC/ACTC related refunds to be available in taxpayer bank accounts or debit cards starting February 27, 2018.
Different wording but means the same thing, they are holding the refunds til Feb 15th in 2017 and holding the refunds til Feb 27th, 2018.
I don't remember exactly when I got my refund last year.
Filed early january. Stuck on path message topic 152 about two weeks. Changed this morning to we are processimg ypur return. No ddd just yet. Think most will get refunds 23-27.
Last year I got mine the 27 of February so they are holding to thier word
I got mine the 23rd last year accepted in early batch this year too
I called the IRS this morning bc I had no refund bars or tax topic. The gentleman I spoke to reviewed my refund and said there isn't any issues it's just taking longer to process with all the refunds that fall under the path act. Wouldn't give me a ddd so now just waiting and hoping for an update.
My return was accepted early on January 22nd, not exactly sure how or why but when i received the notification that it had been accepted i was hoping for an early refund payment. I was sorely mistaken.. I no longer even have a status bar, mine just says that its being processed 😕
In the same Boat . Says my taxes were accepted 1/26. Stayed that way until today when I had no bars only a message that said they will notify me when I'm approved. Is this bad ?
Approved funds in bank by Feb 22 on 15 processed and 17th done !!!!!!##!!!
Hopefully everyone got their deposit day today. Approved 1/30 DDD 2/22
Like I said before I knew I would get it 2-3 days after my processing date of 2/19 just like I did last year.
S/O to those who like to online argue with people and probably looking like boo boo the fool right now.
People who filed early would get their deposit before 2/27 ! Like I said originally.
Goody for you bschweigart You are the one arguing. I was stating what I had read and you got all childish. I"m done with this conversation. Go find someone else to argue with.
Bwahaha it’s always the one that starts it.. who’s lord have mercy. I’ll just keep you in my prayers
@anorberte23 mine did that too. It went from the path message to processing. It truly depends on what day your return updates. It going to say processing until they finalize everything. For as long as I can remember. My return always updated on a Saturday. And I think the cycle dates definitely indicates when you will see an update. Monday is a holiday. Definitely keep checking.
I personally didn’t have anything new. Same income. Same kid. Speedy process.... Nonetheless it’s coming. Check your transcripts codes
