Still no refund

As of today, 02/07/19 at 3:31 am, there is no change to the status of my return. I submitted on 01/28 and it was accepted on the same date 01/28. I have the EITC credit, but I've never experienced any hold-ups. Anyone else experience this same thing?

I was accepted on 1/28, no change just accepted. I do NOT have eitc or anything like that. Mine was basic w2s. My brother did his 1/31 and he gets paid tomorrow.

As of 9:30 a.m. in NY I'm still on one bar. Received and being processed. It's one week since my return was accepted. I keep comparing the amount of time it took IRS to approve my return last year. I received my refund on 2/15/18 - two weeks after acceptance, but we didn't have a government shutdown last year. IRS is probably backlogged. I keep reading on this site and others about people who e-filed on the same day I did or later getting their DD dates. I keep trying to convince myself that the IRS is processing millions of returns from early filers and eventually will get to mine. I don't have the EITC and ACTC credits that the IRS won't start processing until 2/15/19 - the day of another looming government shutdown. We have trump the dump to blame for all the delay.

Ya I think mine will move soon, the tax transcript just appeared over night as did some other data. I’m sure it’ll move to approved soon.

Were you able to view the return transcript online? Did you see code 846 and a cycle code on it? If you did, from prior years, your return was processed and you should get a DD date soon. Have you checked WMR today?

We filed 1/12, Accepted 1/14... Married filed joint with 2 dependent's  we do not get the earned income or additional child tax credit. Under my husbands SS# it comes up as a error message as if the return isn't even there, when we use mine it come up as accepted/1st bar. I spoke with someone at the IRS 2 days ago and they told me it doesn't matter if you were in the early acceptance/test batches no returns were actually processed until 1/28 and they cant provide any information for 21 days. Also there are no issues with the WMR app or sight, which seems to be a lie. unless dozens of people here are lying and saying their status hasn't changed but their deposits have shown up.

 

Super frustrating, we have never had a delay or so much trouble getting our return. usually the status changes to approved within 10 days and the deposit follows 4 or 5 days later but as of today no change at all still getting a error and one bar.

I woke up this morning hoping that since my return was accepted a week ago on 1/31/19 that my 2018 transcripts would be available. Yesterday they had "NA" for 2018, but to my surprise the date 2018 was there. I downloaded them and I found cycle code 20190605 but next to 846 it says Refund Issued 2/13/2019. WMR hasn't updated yet. My DD date will probably show tomorrow.

Gives me some hope since you filled on 1/31, and I filled on 2/1. I checked my last returns, and I always been in a lower cycle (ie 500s). So maybe I was lucky, and I was drawn early. One thing that was different this year is that I claimed the electric tax credit for the Bolt that we picked up. Other than that, nothing was majorly different. As I stated in another post, I need to file a 1040X since a 1099-R was received after I filled, but it was a 401K rollover so it will be tax free anyway.

As of this morning, it changed to the PATH Act message, showing no bars or a date. Hopefully, it's on the way.
