Ok. I think my situation applies to you so here it is. I filed on 1/12/16 and was accepted on 1/14/16. I had one bar until 2/1/16 then it disappeared and I got the whole "we can not provide you with any information about your tax refund...if you need further information call and provide reference code 9001..blah blah blah". I waited to call hoping the backlog was the reason and it would update soon but no such luck. I called the irs number provided on WMR Wednesday 2/10/16 and was given the id verify number. I verified my id the same day. Up until this morning I still had the same message on WMR but this morning (2/13/16) I woke up to two bars and a ddd of 2/18/16. I know they say it can take up to 9 more weeks but it seems to be moving much faster than that. I hope this gives you some hope that you will get your money sooner than later.
