I went on June 5 2019 to verify my identity and they told me it would take up to nine weeks for the refund. Our refund was accepted on Jan 28th so after the 9 weeks I called IRS and they told me on that call it would be another 60 days...today is August 17th and still nothing it still says processing.
I did my taxes Jan 17,2020 then got notice of identification letter from IRS now giving me a date of April 22,2020...now on top of it the state hit me with identity letter as well but not as long as turnover as it's...i got so mad i emailed Trump smh
So I just went through the same issue. I know this is old and I hope you received your refund by now lol...
But anyways, 01/23/2020 I filed..01/27/2020 I got accepted. 21 days passed and my bars dissapeared, I called and they told me that I should have received a letter by now about verifying my identity..2 days passed I didn't get any letter so I called again and he told me that because it was sent out the day I called the first time that it should be in my mailbox in the next 4 days smh...03/02/2020 I verified my identity over the phone. She told me it can take up to 9 weeks but usually doesn't take the whole 9. Started to think I would have to wait the whole 9 weeks until today! Last night,like every night before,I would check the wmr app and it was showing the same message. Today I get a notification from my bank stating that my direct deposit has arrived 4 days early..I checked it and there it was!! Still no update on the wmr app...but I have my money so I'm happy!!! Hate that we had to go through that but im glad its over. Don't worry it'll be over with soon everyone else!
Usually, after successful verification, it takes about 9 weeks to complete processing. Alot of people, as noted above have reported receiving within 5-6 weeks.
Tips for Handling Identity Verification Requests From the IRS
Here is some information from the IRS site:
What happens after I verify online or after I call?
We’ll continue processing your return. It will take approximately nine weeks to process.
Understanding Your 5071C Letter
Even if I verified through the actual irs
@Sam882 Yes. All verifications have to be done through the actual IRS systems.

How long will return take now
It can take anywhere from a few days to 3 weeks to update and show the status. The 21 days is just an estimated time frame. The IRS began processing returns on 2/12, you may not find a record of it or the website may say that you have put in incorrect information when tracking your federal refund. As your return moves through the system, the status of it will be updated.
Since Turbo Tax will not have the status of your refund, continue checking the Where’s My Federal Refund tool for updates. Updates are made daily, usually overnight.
