On IRS.gov my return keeps saying "being processed". I filed march 15th. It's been over a month?

    Since your return has been processing longer than 21 days, you can phone the IRS to see if you can learn anything about the delay.

    IRS:  800-829-1040  hours 7 AM - 7 PM local time Mon-Fri

    Listen to each menu before making the selection.
     
    First choose your language. Press 1 for English.

    • Then do not choose the first choice re: "Refund", or it will send you to an automated phone line.
    • Instead, press 2 for "personal income tax".
    • Then press 1 for "form, tax history, or payment".  
    • Then press 3 "for all other questions."
    • Then press 2 "for all other questions."  It should then transfer you to an agent, but there is likely to be a long wait.

    I usually use a speakerphone so I can work on something else while waiting.
