Someone at my husbands job claims she already got hers but I would bet there is some reason, maybe the father claimed the kids or something like that.

it seems like i got the same message a couple years ago but i ended up getting the refund sooner than the day they were saying the delay would be.

I think this year it might be a little later because the Path doesn't lift until midnight tonight and there is no processing on the weekend. So people may start seeing direct deposit dates on the website next Wednesday 2/20 for Monday 2/25 and then another big update next Saturday 2/23 for a ddd of 2/27


I you check WMR 2 morrow it will probably show the Path message removed and show still processing or 1 bar.


Hope this helps

Lift tonight?  This FAQ says February 27.
If you have certain credits like child credits they won’t pay until February 27 due to the PATH act.

By lift I mean the message on WMR will no longer display the long PATH message.

Every year the IRS says around the 27th but people see the Path message removed  (Lifted) from WMR around the 17th and a direct deposit date a few days after.
