I have been waiting for my Georgia State refund since February. Whenever I check it says it is processing. Is anyone else in this predicament? Anyone know of a number that I can call to actually sp

Mine was accepted on January 25 and it is still processing also.

I haven't talked to anyone that has received their ga taxes back yet.

Per GA, it can take 90 days to process refunds. See chart here:

I’ve filed Jan 31 and it still says processing. I show no messages are waiting for me or correspondence needed. This is the longest I’ve waited for my state taxes

If you have a confirmation that the return was accepted, you want to contact the state of Georgia.  Please see this Help Article with additional information:  How do I track my Georgia tax refund?

I've also had that issue I made an account on the Georgia texts website and went and looked into my information and it showed that I had a credit of my tax amount of  And they had to send me a letter in the mail verifying pretty much that it was me and the amount with the code you needed to enter online  mailed.... guessing just an extra step they're taken this year on some returns

I created a Georgia Tax Center account also. There's a credit showing but that's it. No letters or messages. We filed on March 3rd, 2022?  Anyone else still waiting? It says wait 90 days then call?

[Jackiegoss62]

We have been waiting since first of March.  I also created an account no letters just amount of refund in parentheses as well.  I also called and couldn't speak to anyone.  This not right to withold our money.

[sdellinger22]

yes!! I don't understand what is taking so long!! It isn't right to withhold our money

[DvH1]

I finally spoke to someone yesterday but it didn’t help much.  It’s been 12 weeks for me. She just said she sees my account and doesn’t see any issues and that "the system just hasn’t released it yet". She said if I don’t see anything by the 13th or 14th week (?) to call back and they will then be able to do more. None of that makes sense to me. 

[Jackiegoss62]

Nope it does not. I know of a few that has got theirs but they were single.

[Sssstacy85]

Okay, I recieved my GA taxes today but that was after setting up an account on ga tax website and looking at my info Seeing

therwas a positive Balance still sitting in my Account and then I had to request my refund and they sent me a letter with a code ( Pin ) that I had to enter into the verification box and I recieved my refund in less than a week .

[DvH1]

Did you have a note in there that said you needed a verification code?

[Tanessa]

I filed in March and it still says not processed

@Tanessa The thread you posted to is an old one which has had no activity for more than a year.   We do not know if you are posting about your federal refund or your state refund--or both.

TurboTax gives you an estimated date for receiving your refund based on a 21 day average from your date of acceptance, but it can take longer.  “21 days”  is not a promise from TurboTax or the IRS. 

First, check your e-file status to see if your return was accepted: 

https://turbotax.intuit.com/tax-tools/efile-status-lookup/

Once your federal return has been accepted by the IRS, only the IRS has any control.  TurboTax does not receive any updates from the IRS. Your ONLY source of information about your refund now is the IRS.

You need your filing status, your Social Security number and the exact amount  (line 35a of your 2022 Form 1040) of your federal refund to track your Federal refund:

https://ttlc.intuit.com/questions/1901548-why-do-some-refunds-take-longer-than-others

If you chose to have your TurboTax fees deducted from your federal refund, that will take some extra time, while the third party bank handles the refund processing.

OR——if you filed by mail, expect a long wait.   It is taking the very backlogged IRS six to nine months to process mailed returns.   Until a human opens your envelope and enters the data into the system, nothing will even show up on the refund site, so you will have to be very patient.
