Get your taxes done using TurboTax

There is no timetable for when a return is in processing. The IRS pulled your return off the line to look at it. The process could be simple and take a few hours or complicated and take months.

 

A delay could simply mean they are backed up so you should not assume a longer processing time means a bigger issue.

If you are experiencing some type of economic hardship you can reach out to the Taxpayer Advocate Service. Keep in mind, they are backed up as well.
