Is PATH holding up my state refund too or why does FTB say requires additional processing time and allow 3 mo from the date you filed your return to complete processing?

So then why would FTB be telling me my return requires additional processing time so allow 3 mo from the date I filed if nothing has changed other than I made less money than the prior year?

That question should be directed to the FTB.

If it was that easy to contact FTB then I would have already, this is supposed to be a site for asking questions to the community and getting feedback which is what I'm doing! I did not paper file, I e-filed like I always do and I'm aware of the way to go about checking my refund status on the FTB site; that's how I saw the message regarding taking more time to process and up to 3 months.

My Ca tax is saying the same thing.

I actually ended up getting my state return about a week ago, the message just suddenly went away and my return was deposited. Now just waiting on federal but I did the EIC so it will be after the 15th.

Call this number [phone number removed] it’s the direct number to tax compliance. You might have a withholding error or identity issue that can be answered in a few questions with one of the reps. I post this number every year and many have had success using it. Be nice when you call. Good Luck.
