how will i know if i will get the refund for my umemployment being taxed

[debbie-winegar]

I have not heard a word about refunding my taxes they took out of my umemployment. it is almost July and if they were sending out to direct depositor shouldn't I have heard or been refunded already. I can't find out any info from here or the IRS. Can someone please help or give me a phone number that I can call that actually has a person that will talk to you instead of leaving you on hold the rest of your life. this is very frustrating to say the least.

The IRS began to send out the additional refund checks for tax withheld from unemployment in May.   If you are eligible for the extra refund for federal tax that was withheld from your unemployment the IRS will be sending you an additional refund sometime during the next several months.  TurboTax cannot track or predict when it will be sent.  The IRS has not provided a way for you to track it, so all you can do is wait for the refund to arrive.
