Still waiting for my tax refund 7 weeks after I have filed.

It depends. 

The IRS issues a lot of refunds within 21 days, but it could take longer. 

IRS processing time and refund status 

The online link is your best option to track your refund.  I have attached a link with more answers from the IRS as to why your refund may be taking longer to process.

Also, be aware, the IRS operations are limited during the Covid-19 pandemic.  Attached is a link with more information as to what departments are available to contact at the moment.

How to track my refund

I'm not the only one I know who is waiting this long. I understand how to track my refund, etc.  I am just wondering if others are having the same issue.

I’m having the same issue. Got accepted on 2/10/2020 and it still says still processing. This has never happened to me before, and i don’t understand how i got my stimulus check before my refund when all my banking is the same 

[rachael373]

Me too!  I have a friend who filed hers on Jan 31 - crickets = nothing from the IRS.  It's just a relief to know there are others out there too, but frustrating that there is no news about it. 

[Essence]

Nope you’re not alone girl lol. I just don’t understand what’s going on and with everything that’s goin on you can’t even call and talk to a live person. It’s frustrating but i have been patient im praying that things work out for the both of us

Mine was accepted on 3/9/20 and it's still being processed. Haven't received a letter or phone call. Can't reach anyone at IRS.

This was my first time filing in 2019. 2018 and years prior, I was a dependent while attending college. Unfortunately, I haven't received a stimulus check, because I'm still waiting for my 2019 tax return to be approved since 3/9/20.

Im right with you on that one .it’s been almost 8 weeks for me also . Of course no stimulus money either .. so frustrating 

[lauriekillen]

I filed my taxes ELECTRONICALLY on April 17.  It's now June 4.  Seems like a LONG time!?  Says it's still being processed.  So annoyed.
