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 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.
Press 2 for personal or individual tax questions.
Then press 4 for all other inquiries
It should then transfer you to an agent.
Where is my federal refund? I filed Feb 2021 & have been acquiring since April 2021 all automated systems any files before 2/16/21 no info at this time (unquote) In Early May 2021 I was advised to renter through turbotax for fastest results and I tried that to no avail. My state refund was retrieved via e-file late May but still nothing I am NOT self employed I have 1095B form for both my daughter & I (health Insurance for the whole) I do not keep up with tithes/offering and I count it zero. I’ve have no sleep at all and have been trying to get somewhere on TurboTax June 7th & June 8th but with all this for all these months now there purchase option popping up trying to bate me purchase which seem extremely suspicious to a scam to cause problem to bate ppl with the dire need of help and on top of all THIS additional crap the non-selected items are in my file as though I chose it to purchase this kind of stress lack of sleep should be a crime to the thing that cause it. The IRS will steal from ppl to take & get what’s owed them... But when they do it or allow it to be done to others IT IS STEAL A CRIME.. You guys are interrupting my household’s livelihood & I pray this issues is sooner than later solved. God know the intent of everyone MIND & THOUGHTS, HE KNOWS ALL & ot best not to mess with Not even HIS least little one.. weather you believe it or not, I will Trust In The Lord, Amen.
... info is not correct near the prior post and I did not type that false information concerning self such as filing status nor refund amount that is not info I would share rather it was coins or dollars, I just wouldn’t share that
Some tax returns take longer to process than others for many reasons, including when a return:
Where’s My Refund? will give you a personalized date after we process your return and approve your refund.
