I’ve had the same run around. I filed on 5/1. They said they needed to verify the withholding from my employer because it was too high. That shouldn’t take more than a day. I was assigned a tax advocate whose voicemail still says she will be out of office in July..... it’s August. I’ve called and left message after message and I faxed her a letter. Nothing. I called irs yesterday and the lady said that I could escalate the issue by calling the office, only for that number to be the exact same number as the tax advocate’s number who isn’t calling back. I see that nobody has been able to get a definite course of action. There is zero reason for this holdup and I need to know what I need to do to get my money because I really need it now. Anyone know?
