We filed at the beginning of March. We were told that our tax topic was 152 and to give them 60 days. That was the 16th and we just received a letter where they say they need an ADDITIONAL 60 days because “ we’re waiting for your tax account information to be available on our computer system?” WTF does that even mean? Was it lost or something? It got “accepted” so it should have been in the system?
Your Return was accepted for processing, but apparently your Refund will be delayed until IRS verifies claims made therein. You can call 800-829-1040 to speak to IRS.

Once a tax return has been Accepted by the IRS, TurboTax receives no further information concerning the tax return or any tax refund.
The dates for receiving a tax refund after it has been accepted by the IRS are only estimates based on the IRS target of issuing a tax refund after 21 days from the date it was accepted by the IRS. This is a target only and not a guarantee.
After the tax return has been Accepted by the IRS (meaning only that they received the return) it will be in the Processing mode until the tax refund has been Approved and then an Issue Date will be available on the IRS website.
See this IRS website for federal tax refund FAQ's - https://www.irs.gov/refunds/tax-season-refund-frequently-asked-questions
If accepted by the IRS use the federal tax refund website to check the refund status - https://www.irs.gov/refunds
If over 21 days since being Accepted by the IRS and the tax refund is still Processing you can call the IRS and speak with an IRS agent concerning your tax refund.
Call the IRS: 1-800-829-1040 hours 7 AM - 7 PM local time Monday-Friday
When calling the IRS do NOT choose the first option re: "Refund", or it will send you to an automated phone line.
So after first choosing your language, then do NOT choose Option 1 (refund info). Choose option 2 for "personal income tax" instead.
Then press 1 for "form, tax history, or payment".
Then press 3 "for all other questions."
Then press 2 "for all other questions."
- When it asks you to enter your SSN or EIN to access your account information, don’t enter anything.
- After it asks twice, you will get another menu.
Then press 2 for personal or individual tax questions.
It should then transfer you to an agent.
