Hi- I filed in March of 2021 and have still not received my refund a full year later. Turns out I found a whole lot of people had the same issue with miscalculations regarding the stimulus checks. Once I realized that was it, I sent a corrected return which supposedly caused another issue. I spoke to an IRS rep sometime in Sept after a 3 hour hold and she confirmed my amended returned caused a 8-12 week delay. it has been well beyond that. I’ve tried to be patient but I’m anxious to do my 2021 taxes since I still haven’t received my 2020 refund. I need help getting my money.

You do not need your federal tax refund from 2020 to complete and file a 2021 tax return.

For help with a prior year refund, you will need to reach out to the IRS directly.

IRS: 800-829-1040

Hours: 7:00 AM - 7:00 PM, local time

Monday-Friday

Listen to each menu before making the selection.
First choose your language. Press 1 for English.
Then do NOT choose the first choice re: "Refund", or it will send you to an automated phone line.
Instead, press 2 for "personal income tax".
Then press 1 for "form, tax history, or payment".
Then press 3 "for all other questions."
Then press 2 "for all other questions." It should then transfer you to an agent.
