Tax Year Prior to 2020: Has anyone received a refund with earned income credit or additional child tax credit?

The IRS will start processing returns with EIC and ACTC from February 15, 2020. And taxpayers will start receiving their refunds by the first week of March.

Please read this IRS document for more information.

Just received CP05 letter today what the hell

[VictorW9]

A CP05 notice is a letter from the IRS telling you that your tax return is being reviewed. This is to let you know that your refund may be delayed and that the IRS may request more information from you.

A CP05 notice doesn’t mean that you’ve done something wrong or that you’ve made an error. It’s an alert, and nothing else.

So now today I receive email from Turbo Tax. That they are going take $80. Plus fee as of April 2 . Seem funny I use there software to do our taxes for years . We get the 60 day hold letter and our state refund.  What the hell are they thinking? To take money from an account that has none? Seem kinda illegal to me.  I will using some other tax software or people next year.

Letter 2645C means the IRS is going to need more time to review your earned income claims- unfortunately, there is no way to speed up the process.
