Yes but I managed to get through. They told me I had a small error and it would correct itself. Usually takes 3 to 4 days but because they are backed up could take longer. That was 2 weeks ago. I updated yesterday with a date on my transcripts. It took a total of 43 days to get my refund date

I called first thing in the morning when they open at 7am. I had to call back to back over 40 times because the lines are already full even then and they won't let you hold if there are too many calls. I filed on the 11th and accepted on the 12th of February. I claimed the lookback credit for eic and the child tax credit.
