Recived a letter from the IRS. I have to fax in my 1095a and a 8962 form. How long did it delay getting your refund? IRS said 6-8weeks. Anyone get them sooner by chance?

2017 Tax Returns Did you get your refund sooner than the 6-8weeks after faxing in the needed forms?

Most taxpayers are reporting 8 weeks. If the delay is causing you a hardship then contact the Taxpayer Advocate Services for more help.  http://www.taxpayeradvocate.irs.gov/contact-us

From what I have read I have seen some people get their return in 2-3 weeks from the time they faxed in their forms. I had to do the same thing this year and Im currwnrly playing the waiting game too

Anyone still have the fax number? The fax number they gave me is wrong so I can’t fax mine in.

I was told 6-8 weeks and I have been calling them every morning to verify. I have heard of people getting them sooner, but the way its going they told me April 22 for mine, and if I have not got it by then to start calling.
