  • Hi I filed my refund on April 12 and it says on the irs website that it still processing. 
  • Why is it taking more than 21 days since I efiled?

    The IRS is actually closed, they are still processing e-filed returns but it is taking longer due to being short staffed.  You would need to keep checking the IRS website, Where's My Refund, for updates about your return & refund.  The website updates once a day.
