It is frustrating when you have to wait so long to have your return accepted and finalized.
The only thing I can think is that maybe the company never sent the IRS a copy of the W2 or the W2 just was not received even though they sent it. The IRS matches what is on your return to documents sent on your behalf.
You can go to https://www.irs.gov/payments/your-online-account create an account, then go to Tax Records, Get Tax Transcripts, reason and GO. This will pull up all of your wage and income transcripts that were sent to the IRS on your behalf. Click on 2021 to see what was sent.
If you do not see that W2 in the 2021 wage and income transcript that that would confirm my first idea.
I do suggest that whenever you send the IRS something, please send it certified mail so that you have a record of when you sent it. I would also keep a copy of everything you send.
When the refund is finally sent out, you should received interest in addition to the refund.
I sure hope this goes quickly for you...
Also, did you buy Audit Defense for 2021? If so, you would contact Audit Defense and they would help you with this issue.
You can only call Audit Defense if you purchase this service when you filed your 2021 return.
