by chance do you have anything on Lines 28 or 30 of Form 1040? that certainly will delay the refund.

Some tax returns take longer to process than others, including when a return:

Needs a correction to the Recovery Rebate Credit amount
Needs a correction to the Child Tax Credit amount
Is incomplete
Is affected by identity theft or fraud
Includes a claim filed for an Earned Income Tax Credit or an Additional Child Tax Credit using 2019 income.
Includes a Form 8379, Injured Spouse AllocationPDF, which could take up to 14 weeks to process
Needs further review in general

It's taking us more than 21 days (and up to 90 to 120 days) to issue refunds for tax returns with the Recovery Rebate Credit, Earned Income Tax Credit and Additional Child Tax Credit.

Don't file a second tax return. If you're due a refund from your tax return, you should wait to get it before filing Form 1040-X to amend your original tax return.
