If you were in the delayed group .....
This is a totally new process this year so
there are bound to be delays ... they now must wade thru the millions of
returns that have been backlogged due to the new rules ... patience will be
required while they figure out this new system. FYI ... this will be a
permanent situation so plan accordingly ... folks who are affected by the new
rule and usually get a refund in mid Jan will be waiting until the end of
February.
IRS posted this Monday ...
“Where’s My Refund?” Updates Feb. 18 for Most
EITC and ACTC Filers
Where’s My Refund? will
be updated on Feb. 18 for the vast majority of early filers who claimed the
Earned Income Tax Credit or the Additional Child Tax Credit. Before Feb. 18,
some taxpayers may see a projected deposit date or an intermittent message that
the IRS is processing their return.
By law, the IRS is
required to hold EITC and ACTC refunds until Feb. 15. However, taxpayers may
not see those refunds until the week of Feb. 27. Due to differing time frames
with financial institutions, weekends and the Presidents Day holiday, these
refunds likely will not start arriving in bank accounts or on debit cards until
the week of Feb. 27 -- if there are no processing issues with the tax return
and the taxpayer chose direct deposit.
