I filed my taxes with Turbotax in March. I was sent a letter telling me that they needed more information and to call them. I did that and was told that they had all they needed and my refund would be coming within 9 weeks. I have since received a letter saying that my return is being reviewed and that they need up to 60 days. I have gotten two more letters saying they need another 60 days. I have tried calling the numbers they gave me but cannot get through. I am retired and my return is simple. What can I do to get my refund

If the IRS has blown past its own timeline, or the delay is causing genuine financial hardship (rent, utilities, medical bills), contact the Taxpayer Advocate Service (TAS) ↗ at 877-777-4778.

one other thing you might do is to go online to see if your account transcript is available. there will be certain codes that might identify the issue. Also make sure that you responded to any req2uest for additional information contained in the notices.
