I filed my taxes on February 4 both the state and federal got accepted on February 5 I then got my state taxes back on March 8 and recently on March 17 got back only roughly about 500 of almost a 2,000 federal refund it’s almost been a week and nothing has changed. I called the offset number of the IRS and I have no offset so i’m confused on where the rest could be and when will I be receiving it ? It’s frustrating there’s not information being given out @RaifH @LoganathanB @JillS56 @AamilD @RobertB4444

    Does the IRS website indicate that you were sent less than what was reported on your federal tax return Form 1040 Line 34? - https://www.irs.gov/refunds
    Or call 1-800-829-1954


    If your refund is short $1,400 then that is because you said you did not receive the 3rd stimulus payment and the IRS has records that show you were sent the 3rd stimulus payment so they removed the $1,400 Recovery Rebate Credit that was entered on Form 1040 Line 30.


    Go to this IRS website for your tax account to see if the 3rd stimulus payment is entered - https://www.irs.gov/payments/your-online-account


    If you checked your bank account in the March - May 2021 timeframe and there is not a $1,400 EIP3 payment from the IRS then go to this IRS website for how to start a trace on the payment - https://www.irs.gov/newsroom/questions-and-answers-about-the-third-economic-impact-payment-topic-j-payment-issued-but-lost-stolen-destroyed-or-not-received

    Okay...But what does the IRS website indicate for the amount of refund that was sent?  Does in match what is reported on your Form 1040 Line 34?  Or is it less?
