Mississippi is experiencing a delay in processing returns due to updated security measures to combat fraudulent activity.
Please see the below statement from the Mississippi Department of Revenue:
Due to the increase in fraudulent activity, the Mississippi Department of Revenue has implemented additional procedures and safeguards into our return processes in an effort to mitigate potential fraud. These processes will validate income tax returns and credits reported prior to issuing requested refunds. As a result, these additional procedures may cause a delay in refund processing in order to ensure that the right refunds are being paid to the right taxpayers.
