@Valentina24 I believe what the IRS was trying to explain to you is that refunds claiming the child tax credit or the earned income tax credit may be delayed due to the PATH Act. You can read more about the PATH Act by clicking here. You do not need to have children to claim or qualify for the EIC (earned income credit). Please click here for more information.
@tylisha02 The IRS estimates that most refunds will be sent within three weeks after your e-filed returns are accepted. To get the most accurate date for your refund, please go to Where's My Refund to track your refund. You can also click here to see a chart with estimated refund dates based on the date your return was accepted by the IRS. Once 21 calendar days have passed since your return was accepted, you can reach out to the IRS to inquire about the status of your return. If you call any sooner they will most likely tell you to call back after 21 days. .
