I e-filed my tax return with Turbo Tax on March 16, 2021 and as of today my refund status with the IRS continues to state my tax return is still being processed (101 days outstanding.) I have not received any correspondence from the IRS so I do not know what the hold up is? It seems my return has found its way into a black hole somewhere within the IRS. I contacted my previous tax preparer and they have not experienced any unusual delays.
What is my next step? How do I contact the IRS.
The courtesy of a reply is greatly appreciated.
That's normal this year. You are not alone. Millions are still waiting. Turbo Tax only gives you an estimated date. The IRS usually pays most refunds within 21 days. But these are not normal times. This year is taking the IRS longer to send the refunds. There are millions more people filing returns to get the Stimulus payment.
