No Refund 102 Days After Being Accepted!

[adrisuter2454]

I filed on May 17th and my return was accepted. On where's my refund after 21 days the status bar disappeared. I have called 2 times and they told me after 12 weeks I should have an update on Where's my Refund but it's still the same saying we are prossesing your refund and you will receive a date when available. I've done my taxes on turbo tax since 2014 and this has never happened. Last year they accepted my return on February 10th and my refund was in my account on February 26th. Now I feel like I've done something wrong. I keep seeing on the news app that they are sending refunds for the unemployment tax but I don't understand why they wouldn't finish everyone's refunds and then refund the unemployment money because they have already received one refund. I've been on unemployment and I still am. In the beginning I turned in my tax return from 2019 and they overpaid me supposedly. Which should be my fault and since February of this year they have only paid me $85 because they are taking money for the overpayment. Im bearly making it with all my bills. Plus I live in ohio so they stopped giving out the $300 a week months ago which doesn't make any sense because they recieved like a billion dollars so they could give us that money through September 4th. So they just get to keep all the money that was supposed to go to THE OHIO UNEMPLOYED. Mike DeWine is soo greeded frfr. Sorry done venting I just don't understand why it's taking 102 days and that's today with no change to where's my refund!

Accepted only means the IRS got it which is the good news.  sorry, but 102 days is not long when you consider that some taxpayers have been waiting for more than 6 months. the IRS is overloaded - too many returns, not enough employees (it's having the same problem hiring as many other employers looking for employees), and an antiquated computer system. it doesn't help when the US Congress has not adequately funded the IRS.  since 2010 funding for the IRS has been cut by 20% in inflation-adjusted dollars.  the number of equivalent full-time employees has gone from about 95,000 in 2010 to about 75,000 today.
