I also had the bars missing and a statement that they will give a date for refund. Its over 21 days. I submitted my taxes on 1/29/2020. I called the irs and was on the phone for 2 hours trying to find out what happened. I was told there was a minor issue and an irs agent was able to fix it. I was also told because of this error the processing starts all over. I have to wait another 21 days. I asked what was wrong. The only thing that was changed was the amount of my child care credit calculation. Turbo Tax rounded all of my numbers on my tax form. Rounding is allowed per irs 1040 instructions for 2019 taxes. The irs agent changed my child care credit to exact numbers from rounding. My child care credit now states 367.80. I was told I had to now wait another 21 days to get my tax return. I am not getting my tax return on time because an irs agent didn't like the rounding. I'm not getting my tax refund over 20 cents. Rounding is allowed. What recourse do I have for someone not doing their job. I don't have a date for my refund on the Where's my Refund site. My tax return was supposed to be my Earnest money for a house I was trying to buy.
