Our NYS tax return was simple-Wages from W-2 form--Standard deduction, NYS tax paid from W-2 form, overpayment amount- Refund amount. Why does it require further review?

Refund status went from "received/accepted" to "processing" to "received and requires further review".   The NYS  refund status site says that when that occurs (after possibly a digital sign of fraud)  it requires manual review, which may take several months to process.   We were counting on this nominal amount and NYS says until the status says "processing" again- no information by any means is available.   Knowing fully well that there is NOTHING to review as it is simple subtraction- We are frustrated, angry and want to know what we can do to speed up a return that has absolutely NO reason to be reviewed!!!!!
