@s3br3n Your refund is delayed along with millions of other refunds. The IRS is backlogged due to the pandemic. They began the tax season already behind because of the pandemic, it just kept getting worse for them. They had to send out millions of second stimulus payments at the end of 2020 and early 2021, then Congress changed the tax laws and they had to change tax forms, recalculate millions of refunds, etc, etc etc., then issue a 3rd round of stimulus checks.........AND try to gear up to start sending out advance monthly payments for the child tax credit to millions of people. The IRS is underfunded, understaffed and is using obsolete computers. A perfect storm for a horrible tax season for the IRS and the millions of people who just need their refunds.
