Yes same situation and you cannot get through when you call the IRS. So when you call the IRS it will either say their offices are closed or call volume too high and that's at 7 a.m.

There are many issues that can delay refunds, including ones over which the IRS has no control. Here are the top three categories:

Administrative requirements

Earned Income Tax Credit and/or an Additional Child Tax Credit. If you filed in February or earlier and claimed either of these credits, the 2017 PATH Act requires processing to be delayed.
Form 8379 (Injured Spouse Allocation). If you included this form on your return, it can take 11–14 weeks to process.
Form 1040-X (Amended Return). If you amended your return, it can take 12–16 weeks to process.
Refund offset. The IRS may have discovered you have delinquent debts, which they're legally required to deduct from your refund. You'll receive a notice about the offset.

Missing, inconsistent, or suspect information

The IRS found errors, inconsistencies, or missing info on the return. For example, you and a former spouse both claimed the same child as a dependent.
The return is under review, which can happen randomly.
The IRS suspects identity theft or fraud.

Delivery glitches

Your refund check could just be delayed in the mail. The reason could be as simple as a new postal carrier learning your route.
Electronic payments may be delayed by bank transfer and posting issues.
