Was finally able to get through to an actual human being at NJ Dept of Taxation. Dial 609 292 6400, option 5. Keep dialing back until you get through the message saying due to high call volume your call cannot be transferred to an agent. Eventually you will get through. Spoke with an agent who took my info, researched the status. I have been told my return "just" moved to Approved. Will give it a day or so to confirm online.
