Maybe. In my experience, IRS usually completes the reviews around the 45 days. IRS may also contact you to provide information to them, so if they request information from you, I would provide it immediately.

IRS says, "If you haven’t received your refund or been contacted by us within 45 days from the date of this notice, you can call us at the number provided on your notice."

hello, I filed my taxes 01/25 ,federal was accepted the same day. State was accepted 02/07. of 02/15 i noticed on wmr the bars had disappeared. I called the irs and they informed me that i was put on a 45 day hold and that they didn't need any info from me.I received my state refund 02/23.I checked the wmr website again that day and still said the refund is still processing bull crap. I called again on 02/26 to figure out if anything had changed and the operator was extremely rude and mentioned me calling a lot. I asked her if i needed to confirm anything she told me no. 03/09 i got a letter in the mail explaining to me about the further review but instead of 45 days it said 60 days from the late on the letter which was 03/06. I then found out about the tax advocates. I really needed one because I've been having car trouble and all of my daughter's benefits such as ktap, foodstamps, medicaid, etc was discontinued. I called them (tax advocate) on a Wednesday, they told me it would take 5 days to be assigned an advocate. I called that following Monday and was told i got assigned an advocate and they gave me her personal name and number. i called the advocate that Wednesday because id hadn't heard anything i left a message. she called me back the next day 03/22. She informed me to turn in proof of the discontinuance and to get it turned in that day before 4:30(time they closed). She also was so kind to inform me that she would get her supervisor to write a letter of recommendation to get my refund processed and issued ASAP. Friday while i was at work i got a call with my DDD of 03/28. I really recommend everyone to get an advocate. Hope everyone gets their issues resolved.

Well thank you I am going to call them tomorrow. I am hoping they will help me. I can agree they are a tad bit rude.

If it's been more than 90 days since the return was accepted then you can ask for help from the Tax Payer Advocate office:
At the following IRS website, find the USA map and click on your state, and it will give you the number of your IRS Taxpayer Advocate.

http://www.irs.gov/uac/Contact-a-Local-Taxpayer-Advocate

If you are unsuccessful with the Taxpayer Advocate for your area, you can also try the special IRS phone number for the Taxpayer Advocate Service at 877-777-4778.

@raylynnwineland8 one last question sorry to be a pest but u think since my bank rejected my return due to it exceeding my deposit limit  it’s under review ? cause when I called the irs the representative asked me a lot of questions beside the basic filing status dob an ss # an address but my parents name an other stuff you think that could’ve been a verification over the phone ?

Im going thru a similar situation, i filed back in march 12 it was being processed until around first week in june it change to being reviewed  i was able to be thru the line once out of the numerous times i tried and then said a letter was sent out on 3 i still havnt received a letter but im assuming once i get letter and turn what ever they askin for in they should release funds.  However the question is how long does it takes for them to send the letter considering the fact that its already flaged. Which is a mystery as well cause in my case the only thing that has change is my address only thing that was done differently was i used last years earned income but turbo tax recommended it so i assumed it wouldnt be an issue. Very frustrating

Sadly this year many things require human reviewing  and the IRS is short of humans so everything is taking much much longer to process.   

 

Many of these MILLIONS of returns needing  review  were dumped on a department that usually handles just a few thousand returns per year  and they are paddling as fast as they can so everyone needs to be patient.
