Yes, the IRS was holding returns that included
Earned Income Credit and
Additional Child Tax Credit until Mid-February and
deposit refunds no later than February 27, 2018.
Even
though the IRS issues 9 out of
10 tax refunds within 21 days, (if your refund is delayed) it's
possible your return may require additional review and take longer to process.
However,
if it has been 21 days since your return have been accepted then you may
also call the
IRS customer service at
1-800-829-1040 to inquire the status of
your tax return.
