Same! My is

Federal Refund:

Return Status: Accepted 02/23/2021

And it said Estimated federal refund date 03/16/21 and its4/3/2021 and the phone number to call the IRS is impossible to get through. I've spent 3 hrs. on hold 2 times. And the Where's my Refund Tool is useless every time i check it they update it once a day between midnight and 6 am. But it always says the same thing 

Your tax return is still being processed.

A refund date will be provided when available.

Been looking at the WMR site everyday since February, same info, still being processed, no date.  My return was accepted 2/12.  I was expecting to see the same thing this morning and nearly spilled my coffee when I saw the site had updated, my bars had returned and says my refund is approved and should be deposited 4/7.  There was an adjustment made, but that was only for $50 less.  So glad this nightmare is nearing an end.

Just wanted to say I had the same problem. Filed in February and was accepted on the 12th and since then all I get is your refund is still be processed. I checked in this morning and it finally says that your refund will be sent to the bank on the 7th. So fingers crossed it’s just because their behind and you guys should hopefully get the same thing soon

So where'd you find this out at? Wrm site? 

[smitty152473]

Wmr site down?? Where'd you find out your deposit date then? On phone with irs? Because they couldn't tell me **bleep**. Other than it's in returns department and if I don't hear anything in 10 weeks from date accepted feb 13th call back. Friggin joke. Thanks to tt for adding amounts on line 30. 

[smitty152473]

I filed later on last when it got extended and mine didn’t come in till literally the beginning of 2021. I’m hoping the same thing doesn’t happen again I need my money. This time as soon as I could and still haven’t heard anything back I’m in the same place like most people here.

I filed and my return was accepted March 4. It’s been a month (though only 20 business days?) and I haven’t received my federal refund. I did claim the Recovery Rebate Credit; my household did not receive the first payment under Trump but became eligible retroactively under Biden as explained on my tax form. I do believe this is the reason for my delay,and perhaps yours too. However, I did see the following conflicting info on the IRS site:

Processing: Will it take longer to process my return if I claim the credit? (added February 5, 2021)

A5.  Claiming the Recovery Rebate Credit on your tax return will not delay the processing of your tax return. However, it is important that you claim the correct amount. Any errors in the credit amount on your tax return will be corrected.  Your refund may be delayed while we make any necessary corrections.

The fastest and most accurate way for you is to file is electronically where the tax software will help you figure your Recovery Rebate Credit.

I have contacted TT and they have issued me a refund for their mistake on line 30.  They also said that they have found and fixed the glitch.  However, I still have not had any status change on the IRS website other than saying being processed.

TT was really good though when I called them.  They're not only refunding the money that I paid them this year, but they will still file any amendment that I may need for this year-including for State since I may end up owing them more money and thay already took it out.

I've been using TT for at least 10 years and this is the only time that I have ever had any trouble at all with my taxes.

Once I talked to a real person and not on chat, their customer service was pretty good.

I can't get ahold of the IRS after the first time.  I tried calling at 7:03 am last week and got through all of the prompts only for them to hang up on me due to high volume in calls.  In other words, make sure you start calling right AT 7:00 am.  One minute before and no answer, 3 minutes afterward and you get hung up on before you even have a chance.  The rest of day, forget it.
