UI tax Refund

[erictrules]

It’s been six months since the  IRS announced this UI refund. I cannot reach them by phone. Is there anything I can do to expedite my refund?

Hi @erictrules! Sorry to hear that you are having trouble reaching the IRS, but rest assured you are not alone! Usually the best time to call is at 7am your local time. As for your additional refund, the IRS has said that they will be sending refunds throughout the summer which doesn’t officially end until September 22nd. Many people have still been receiving them in the last couple weeks. You may already be aware of the information in these links, but I will provide them below:
