I am so sorry you're all caught up in the review process. I am surprised that the Tax Advocate isn't able to help, and that would have been my only suggestion.
A certain number of tax returns are selected each year for review at random and it isn't anything you've done, not that it helps the situation any - but do know that.
The only "good" news is that when they do finally process your refund, they will pay you interest for the time they've held it. Under normal conditions these types of reviews typically take up to forty-five days but currently, unfortunately, most IRS processing staff is not working so these things are taking longer than usual.
Again, I am sorry that this is the situation you are in - but unfortunately there is no solution other than waiting for the IRS to finish their review.
