Thank you for your response.
I know I'm not the only person waiting on their 2019 return. Last year seems to have provided light on some of the shortcoming of the IRS, especially with their ability to communicate simple information.
According to the "Coronavirus Tax Relief: 2019 tax refund interest" page (https://www.irs.gov/newsroom/coronavirus-tax-relief-2019-tax-refund-interest) the IRS will in fact be issuing interest payments based on some tax returns. Not only was this all over the new, I fail to see how it doesn't apply, especially after reading the IRS's own page on it.
At this point, I just want to see my tax return. The interest is the least of my worries.
Given this information, I feel better about filing on February 12th.
I really wish information - whether from the IRS or others - had been better communicated last year. It would have saved me more time and frustration if I had let the IRS mess up my stimulus, I don't believe I would have waited any more or less at this point, but it would have been easier to file everything.
