I filed in Feb 26 and still nothing. IRS called and they hung up due to overwhelming calls.
If you efiled, I'll assume you have already checked to see that it was accepted for processing, and that you have been using the IRS "Where's My Refund" tool to check on the status.

This is anecdotal, but I've phoned the IRS a couple of times and found that for me it was best to call just before closing time--about 6:55 PM and quickly go through the steps provided earlier in this thread to navigate their phone tree. I figured a lot of folks would not call that close to closing, and that if I was one of the last to get into the queue, they would finish off all the people who were in the queue at closing time. And luckily, my hunch worked for me. Still had to wait about 25 minutes.
