Call the IRS: 1-800-829-1040 hours 7 AM - 7 PM local time Monday-Friday
When calling the IRS do NOT choose the first option re: "Refund", or it will send you to an automated phone line.
So after first choosing your language, then do NOT choose Option 1 (refund info). Choose option 2 for "personal income tax" instead.
Then press 1 for "form, tax history, or payment".
Then press 3 "for all other questions."
Then press 2 "for all other questions."
- When it asks you to enter your SSN or EIN to access your account information, don't enter anything.
- After it asks twice, you will get another menu.

Press 2 for personal or individual tax questions.
Then press 4 for all other inquiries
It should then transfer you to an agent.
Or you can contact your local IRS office. See this IRS website for local IRS offices - http://www.irs.gov/uac/Contact-Your-Local-IRS-Office-1 or call 1-844-545-5640 to set up an appointment
Or you may want to contact a Taxpayer Advocate in your area. See this IRS website for Taxpayer Advocate in your area and a toll free number - http://www.irs.gov/Advocate/Local-Taxpayer-Advocate

No still haven't gotten 2019 return

Thetruth2022 · ‎March 1, 2021

It means you have been audited 😬

Thetruth2022 · ‎March 1, 2021

Yes its an audit after 21 days and your bars go away hope this helps

OK - so I am slowly losing my mind. if the WMR page says:

Refund Status Results

Your tax return is still being processed.

A refund date will be provided when available.

Does that mean:

A - there is a glitch in the display, nothing is wrong

B - they are currently processing your return, check back later to see the updated status

C - you are being audited

D - your return is being reviewed, not audited, but may take longer than usual to process

Return accepted 02/11/21, it said accepted and had a status bar until last night, when the bar disappeared and now I have this message?? Answers to this are all over the place.

After the tax return has been Accepted by the IRS (meaning only that they received the return) it will be in the Processing mode until the tax refund has been Approved and then an Issue Date will be available on the IRS website.

Any updates? Mine changed from accepted with a status bar to Still being processed check back for more info. Like umm. What is happening.

Runey727 · ‎March 1, 2021

I've never had a status bar and turbo tax said it was accepted Feb 13th , what does this mean. I filed single self employed I only had 1200 and claimed 1 child and the back stimulus we never received..

bperez2011 · ‎March 1, 2021

did you get your return?

Str82Taylor · ‎March 2, 2021

Yes it is just a glitch in the system, not sure if you have looked but on irs.gov in the news section it says that pretty much something is wrong with the system as far as showing you any progress or dates when looking at your refund status, it also says that even when you receive your refund in you bank account you will still get this generic message. I received my refund last Friday and that "still processing" message is no different and with no bars now. So if I were you I would just keep checking your account everyday. But also if you files through turbo tax they will send you a email when your return is on its way. That's how me n my husband found out that ours was on the way, not because WMR gave any info but because turbo tax sent a email saying ok all is good your refund will be posting in a few days.... and it did. Hope this helps a little

JuleeG · ‎March 2, 2021

I went into Where's My Refund and the status bar was gone, and the message said We are still processing your return we will give you a date soon. Should I be concerned?
