Again I have looked it all up and know what it means. I got a 9.00 refund and it was 11,806.00 if it's student loans I only owe 8000.0 and it's not up for payments tell June?? Haven't received the letter and it doesn't say anywhere on the transcript where the money went.

Most likely they have your return in review. You should definitely look at your transcripts and make sure you contact irs exams to see if it’s in their department because regular irs people won’t be able to see it

Did you ever receive an refund ????????

The claiming if new dependents will definitely delay the processing. Is it possible a parent claimed one or both nieces on their return?

Did the IRS give you back a refund after you got money deducted from your return?

I have not received my 2020 taxes, I am the custodian parent of two little girls and even though they have lived with me their whole lives, their dad claimed them and he got every child tax credit and I didn’t receive anything. My girls are going without, we are fixing to be evicted and will be without electricity soon bc I can’t work full time bc of no babysitter 

[Toosexy81]

No

@Toosexy81 - I assume you paper filed 2020.  Have you reveiewed your transcript to see if there is anything meaningful on their?

what did you do about filing in 2021?

Also, are you familiar with the IRS PIN.  Using a PIN will preclude anyone who doesn't know the PIN from efiling a tax return with the children listed.  Paper filing without the PIN would really slow down the processing.
