Just because you can order a transcript does NOT mean your return has been processed or that a refund has been released or a date for release set.... that is an old wives tale. Even if you have a date posted the IRS can still stop the refund to audit the return.

The IRS was not going to start processing returns until the 29th and refunds were not expected until 2/7 or later however this government shut down may effect that time table if it lasts for more than a week ....and don't be surprised if things are delayed much longer as the employees play catch up after the time off and begin returning to the job ...

Do I still have to deal with my taxes?

Of course! Though the bulk of IRS employees have been furloughed (just like they were in 2013 ), you're still responsible for filing your tax return. And if you're expecting a refund, it might well be delayed.

AND the IRS will hold all 2017 tax returns that have a tax refund which includes EIC and/or the Additional Child Tax Credit util mid-February. They will release the tax refunds in late February if there are no errors on the tax return.

From what I was told at the IRS. If your transcripts are available to order that means that they have already processed you taxes. Now that is not to say you will get your refund before the 27th of February. Due to the law they will not be releasing d's until that time so we have to sit tight.

Did any of you only get to order transcripts by mail but not online

kristib5481 · ‎June 7, 2019

so after you were able to get your transcript for 2017, was it soon afterwards that you received your ddd. I am wondering because I file on February 8th and am trying to see as to why it is still under review.

@SweetieJean thank you, I definitely did not want to see Q14. it stated exactly what I was asking.Thank you.

SweetieJean · ‎June 7, 2019

You mean Q13, right?

kristib5481 · ‎June 7, 2019

I was able to order my transcripts i filed 1/30/18 ad was accepted the same day i had to verify my identity i did that on 2/28/18 called a tax advocate to speed up process on 3/16/18 and still no update so i have been reading that if u can order ur transcripts u r done processing right?

kristib5481 · ‎June 7, 2019

well on the sight for the IRS I believe it says Q13. it says that even if we are able to get transcripts that it does not mean anything. Which I had the same hopes and when I read it, it was shot down when I read it. But I have not heard anything on anything. I am probably going to call an advocate on Monday.

kristib5481 · ‎June 7, 2019

being that I am tired of waiting on them people. I think it is truly a joke all together.

hbrandy1815 · ‎June 7, 2019

i totally agree this is frustrating we want to find the right answers for all of this but the irs isn't any help at all at times i called and they wouldn't discuss my return with me to see if i was due for an update
