Even though the Virginia Department of Taxation was accepting returns,
they did not start processing them until mid- to late-February.
They were waiting for legislation to be passed concerning Virginia's conformity
to the new federal tax laws.
According to the Virginia
Tax website:
What the new law means for this year’s filing season:
- We are starting to process
returns in the order we received them.
-
The Where's
My Refund online tool is open and
available for you to check on your 2018 return, past return, or refund
status 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.
- Due to the large backlog
of returns that have already been submitted, you will experience slower
turnaround times for refunds compared to past years.
