I'm at about 10 week mark (filed mid April)
Have called the IRS more than once and got no where.. the person on the other line could not tell me when it would be processed and indicated there was no escalation process (find that hard to believe).
Contacted my Senators and Congressman. For them to help, I have to sign a Privacy Release form which would give them the ability to talk to the IRS about my return.. Not sure I want to do that.
There is a Tax Payer Advocate group that should be able to help (in theory) if you can get through. Which I have not been able to, and it looks like there site is down now.

Has anyone found any in-roads to get past the bureaucracy to find out the real wait time?
