This year it seems to be a lot more common for refunds to take months instead of days. You would need to contact the IRS at 800-829-1040 to find out what is happening with your return
What if my IRS refund is taking longer than 21 days?
I have tried calling at multiple times, every day and still can not even get on hold to wait for an agent
800-829-1040. It might be easiest to set up an account with them.

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 3 for all other inquiries
It should then transfer you to an agent.
