I was told to guess on the last 2 covid payment numbers and that the irs would fix it if it's wrong.I don't think im using this again....Highly Pissed off.
If you are expecting a refund then join millions of others.
The IRS is running behind due to COVID and a huge amount of early tax returns being filed this year.
See this IRS newsroom release: https://www.irs.gov/newsroom/irs-operations-during-covid-19-mission-critical-functions-continue
They are so delayed that they postponed the filing date from April 15 to May 17.
21 days is not a magic number - it is just an average.
TurboTax only gives the general IRS (most returns are processed within 21 days) date. The actual date is known only by the IRS. TurboTax also does not adjust the general date for anything on the tax return. TurboTax receives no feedback from the IRS after filing.
The IRS says most refunds will be issued within 21 days - some faster, some longer.
(Most means more than half so many take longer - MUCH longer)
Each tax return is evaluated on it's own merits. There is no first-in-first-out. Two similar tax return submitted at the same time can have totally different processing times based on IRS criteria for examining tax returns that the IRS does not divulge.
Some returns will be held for ID verification or other verification. The IRS will send a letter if they require more information to process your tax return.

I was told by the woman helping me that I did not have to worry about it and to guess the numbers.And fyi that account was hacked into and was closed shortly after....I did what a tax professional told me to do.
If you "guessed" then no matter which DIY program you used this year your return would still be stalled in the processing department charged with verifying this and other items on the return this year. When you were told to guess the assumption was that it would be verified by computers and NOT HUMANS which are once again in short supply this year. The IRS pushed all these returns to a department that is ill equipped to handle the volume of returns they are being asked to review and hence they are backed up by millions of returns in a department that usually sees only a fraction of that amount each year. Patience will be needed by all again this year.
