I filed the very last day and have been waiting on my refund since. My husband is active duty army and was deployed last year. We have since received a notice (CP04) saying that that they need more information to verify combat tax deferment benefits. 

 

We never received one of them before. We filed on time but it still isn't accepted and now we have this notice. I have no idea what this means. Any ideas? Is this holding up our refund? Or is it a "just in case"?

Follow the directions on the notice and call the IRS if you have questions.

Well of course. My question is in regards to still not receiving our refund and this form and if they’re related…

Yes they're related.  Send the IRS what they ask for as soon as possible. Only the IRS can tell you about your refund.  You can call them at 1-800-829-1040.
