Called ext 362 and just keep getting “all reps are busy call another day”. It’s been over a month and don’t know why mine says not filed but his says pending still?

The IRS typically using the first Social Security number listed when processing returns.  Only the IRS would be able to assist you on their refunds page but you do have some other options.  If you are trying to track your refund, please see this link for more guidance to assist you.

 

Or see What do I do if my refund is late and I chose up to 5 days early refund delivery, Refund Advance, or Pay with my Refund for the options available and guidance on how to get an update on your refund if you used one of these services.

Any chance you changed the order of which spouse was listed first on this year's tax return?  Or has it always been you-first??
