Did SBTPG say they recieve payments from the IRS on weekends too? I always get my refund days before DDD when usingthe Turbo card. Also last year I had my deposit before SBTPG updated which was weird

As I mentioned before ... the IRS can pull a return for any reason at any time and there is nothing you can do about it but roll with the punches.  If this takes more than 60 days then you can ask for help from the taxpayer advocate office.

@dewilson2023 Tax topic 151 has numerous meanings, the EIC being one of them. There are numerous people that claim kids that don't belong to them on their tax return. 

If you supported the kids, it's understood that you can claim them but the IRS can still put you under review regardless of the number of years you claim kids on your taxes.

I'm not saying this is the reason that you are being reviewed but your case honestly sounds similar to my cousin who had been claiming his nephews on his return for years.

The IRS flagged his return one year and he had to pay them back all of the money. There is also an ongoing investigation of someone who did the same thing and is facing jail time and they had that code for an offset. I'm not trying to scare you and I honestly hope that this is not your case at all. 

I just notice that the IRS is hot this year on several people who claimed certain credits and are demanding some sort of documentation, verification and/or proof before either seizing, reducing or issuing refunds. Wishing you the very best.

*Filed 1/24

*Accepted 1/27

*Path page 2/8 until 2/14

*"We recieved your return and it is being processed" 2/14 until 2/22

*Gained access to my transcript yesterday and it showed code 846 ddd 2/26 with the full refund amount although I already knew my husband owes back child support and we filed together so it would be offset

*checked WMR today and it says the whole thing about your refund is being offset its approved but we will send you the remained of your money(I'm owed alot more than the offset) and if it's not recieved by 3/2 to contact the irs

*Today checked my transcript again and it's not showing any offset on it which is whatever because I know they took it out. *I called the offset number today and it shows they took the full amount of the offset even though the state already took some of it... so let me throw some numbers around here. Owed $1,700 total for the offset state took $768 which should have made it to where federal only needed to take $932 but they took the whole $1,700.

*I know i just put alot of info out there but I just read all 150 something pages of this forum and I couldnt find anything for the 2 questions I have except I did see someone post pictures of the different WMR pages which mine was the 2nd one... I will recap the questions lol.

Q#1-will my refund still be deposited on 2/26 ?

Q#2-why would they take more money than what is owed for the offset and what do I do about it?

Thanks in advance !

[Koolkat45]

I just checked the Santa Barbara Bank in my refund is there where's my refund still says wrong information and IRS website also

[latashak84]

@Koolkat45 great...what was your ddd from the irs? 

[HarrisonJ2311]

@ilizoh24  I filed 1/25 accepted 1/27. I did have 1 bar on wmr but then went to the same message "We have received your tax return and it's being processed". I know I dont owe anyone or any student loans or anything so I'm just confused why mine is delayed. I've filed the same way and about the same money every year for many years now.

@HarrisonJ2311 

do you have earned income credit?

do you have additional child tax credit?

do you have child in college??

[HarrisonJ2311]

@luvmycop yes on 2 of the 3 lol I'm just concerned because in years past I had no issues at all, and actually sometimes my money was in the bank before it even showed up on wmr. Like 2 days before it showed it was even sent out on wmr. 

[luvmycop]

@HarrisonJ2311 

we all all had to wait if we had child tax credit, or earned income or college students, its because of path act. has nothing to do with passed years. has to do with path act. did you happen to check ya transcript on line?
