@stacks97 when you call irs your only speaking to a representative and the only thing that they can do is check there system and provide you with the same information they are going to keep telling you reading there script that you verify and its been 9 weeks during that time frame a referral was sent out to have the hold on your refunds release to a different department and they never released it so again because you have to wait another 9 weeks they made another referral to have it closed out and your refund issue out to you i'm in the same boat with you another 9 weeks but i have 6 weeks left i'm very upset about the whole situation i work very hard and taxes every two weeks get taken out my pay check easy for them to do that but it's a hard time receiving my refund i have tried to contact a tax advocate couldnt get in contact with one and no return calls plus i still dont see no bars and no update since feb 2017 till now i haven't got my money keep me posted wish you luck
