My federal refund with EITC was accepted 2/10/21 and my state was accepted 2/12/21. I received my state 2 weeks ago but for some reason the status now says still processing and tax topic 152 when people who filed after me already got theirs. Ive been calling IRS but it keeps hanging up due to high call volume. Is tax topic 152 something to worry about? When should they get approved since its been more then 21 days?
Every article I read a few hours ago about Tax topic 152 says every refund goes under the topic that best suits it and that topic 152 means its being processed and will be getting it within 10-14 days after tax topic popped up. And I believe I screenshotted something else saying i should have it between the 10-12th so idk. Its crazy I got a letter to verify my identy for and I still got that 12 days after it was accepted. Did you have child credits also?
This is the one I found that had me put my filing info and the date is now saying 3/10 so fingers crossed
My federal refund was accepted on the 11th lost all bar told by the irs that my refund was in the error department lost all bar an had tt152 for 2week then all of a sudden I got a refund date for 3/23
where did you find that portal? i would love to see what mine will say... PLEASE!!! i have had the TOPIC 152 for 25 days now, so much for 10-14 business days like it says... and can someone please clear something up for me The I.R.S. say there working sunday to sunday.. that there are no business days.. there working round the clock so weekends count.. but someone on the website told me NO, that’s not true. WHATS GOING ON??
that’s great!! did you claim the earned income and child care? if i may ask?
Did you receive your refund yet?? please say you did... that will give me some hope!!
Has anybody got there return I filled it was accepted on 2-12-21 got tax topic 152 still no return.
Tax Topic 152 is related to refund timing. You can find more information about it here. Once the IRS has accepted your return, it then goes into processing status until they review and approve your return. Since it has been more than 21 calendar days since the acceptance of your return, you can try to call the IRS at 1-800-829-1040, but prepare for potentially long wait times.
Also, the IRS is experiencing delays in the processing of returns due to a later than usual start to the tax season, a backlog of mailed returns, current tax season returns, and the current round of stimulus payments. Please see this post here by ToddL99 for further explanation of why returns are delayed.
This is the same exact situation I’m having!!! Filing dates and all! I received my state but federal has been pending as of two days ago it said the 152 code. I have been beyond frustrated.
Tax Topic No. 152, means that some tax returns may require further review and could take longer. Different factors can impact the processing time of your refund, however, an IRS representative will be able to access your return and provide insight into why your return may be delaying.

I spoke with IRS representative and she checked in my status of my refund it’s been more than 21 days then u had topic 152! The representative said there was nothing wrong with my taxes and just wait! How long do we have to wait? I’ve used turbo tax e-file my return with eic whats the hold up! When our govt right now keeps giving away our money to foreign countries! This is ridiculous
Congratulations for getting through to someone! I have called in excess of 100 times .. twice I made it to hold for rep only to be told by recording too busy blah blah and got hung up on. Feb 12th submission. Received an approved when I checked initially but then it went to still processing!
Once the IRS accepts your return, they do not share further information with TurboTax. You would need to contact the IRS, for further assistance, How do I contact the Internal Revenue Service (IRS...
Please see this TurboTax FAQ for more information, What if my IRS refund is taking longer than 21 day...

What’s the secret to get ahold on someone from the irs??! I always get told lines are busy no matter what option I get to. And I’ve called a million times by now! I’m highly unsatisfied this year! They said file early it will help! No it helped absolutely nothing, if anything made it worse some how ?!
I have been accepted since the 12th of February and I still haven’t gotten a date it’s been over a month says tax topic 152
Did u get urs yet mines same way did u get anything in the mail?
It is the 8th week and I keep getting refund still processing. Where's my refund?
It can take 21 days from the time your return is accepted to the time you receive your refund. It may also take longer due to other reasons, such as the particular forms that were filed, an offset, or the PATH Act. For more details, please see the Help Article here.
The IRS is also operating at mission-critical functions due to the COVID-19 pandemic, which means there will be service delays with the following:
