Many TurboTax Users that filed before 2/12/21 refunds and files are still in Limbo

Why does TurboTax recommend we file early if others that filed post 2/12/2021 already have their refunds and a great deal of us that filed and were accepted as a Test batch before the 12th still do not have our refunds and some are in error status. Filers are being punished for filing early. TurboTax has totally washed their hand.

 

Everyone should boycott the use of TT for lying to us. Today is 21 days for most of these in this state and there is still nothing related to a DDD and WMR is out of wack.

The main reason to file early is to head off possible identity thieves.  And please understand that only the IRS controls the timing of refunds, and does not necessarily process returns in the order they are received.  I am just a user volunteer, but know others who filed with TT's competitors who are also still waiting.  The IRS received 35 million returns the first week alone, so there are bound to be delays.

 

Going forward, you can change your withholding so that you do not have to wait for a refund at tax time. Also see:

Thanks 

 

For some reason I got a letter in the mail asking for 8962 and 1095-A.  I have my return and I checked that I do not have ACA, never had.

 

I just received my 1095-C from my employer. How can I best resolve this they are holding my refund for something that is wrong.
