First, I received a text saying that my taxes were accepted late January and it still says that on Turbo Tax. Last week, I checked Where’s my Refund and the IRS said I needed to verify my identity by entering a code from a letter I never received. Yesterday, I had a message saying my return has been received and it takes 21 days… Today, I checked again and it is now saying that they are sorry but processing is taking longer than usual keep checking back. I filed early - I think that’s the issue. Just a theory but the fact that status messages are changing daily AND are changing on weekend days tells me the system is messed up. I am supposed to get my refund on the 13th but I don’t see that happening.
