My return was accepted Feb 3rd, went into manual review. End of April I received a letter stating that they needed my W2s. I sent them in and waited a week before I called to make sure they were received. The lady who answered told me that the mail room is backed up 4-6 weeks, and they wouldn't even be able to give me a progress report until my letter was actually received in the system. After that it goes back through manual review and that takes another 2-4 weeks. It is now the end of May and it still says it's in the manual review stage...who knows if my W2s have even been looked at. The state sure will penalize you if they don't get their money, but they don't have a single issue with keeping ours for no reason.
