It takes about 4-8 weeks (it may be sooner) for the IRS to process a tax return that was filed without an 8962/1095-A.  If the delay is causing you a hardship then contact the Taxpayer Advocate Services for more help.  http://www.taxpayeradvocate.irs.gov/contact-us

Your refund amount may go up or down depending on your income and the amount of Advanced Premium Tax Credit you received on the 1095-A.   

The change is calculated on Form 8962.  If you have an amount on line # 26, that amount will be added to your refund.  If you have an amount on line # 29 instead, this amount will be deducted from your refund.

I’m assuming there has been an change to my refund due to the amount I’ve been entering is not working anymore.

Hi I was on the phone Wednesday with a rep and was now told that they never received my docs, after I was previously told twice that they were received. They put code 324 on my acct meaning I never responded to the letter (which I did) so now I have to wait another 6 to 8 weeks, they are processing as is. I certify mailed my docs again two days ago. According to her now I will get my original refund and when they process my docs I will get the additional. We will be more than half way through the year before I see anything, I’m so irritated this is just not ok at all!
