Question

Should I be worried if I haven't received my Federal refund yet?

Filed on 1/31/2020, received almost immediately. Continued to check the status on the IRS app, the day after the 21st day of filing, my bars disappeared and I now have the "refund is still processing" message. I check daily, the message never changes, no error codes, no (child) tax credit, no letter in the mail, and am just getting a little concerned.

 

I try to check my IRS transcripts, but it says "N/A" for the 2019 year. I also tried calling the IRS, but received an automated message that said, "we're experiencing high call volume, please call back again later" - no option to even hold or anything.

 

Thoughts?

Have you received it yet?  I was wondering the same thing about ours as well then we received a letter in the mail from the IRS saying they were reviewing/investigating our return based on our income.  We have to wait 60 days to hear back from them.

No letter as of yet, and I keep trying to call the IRS, but can't get through. I just want to know what's going on 😞

What date did you submit your return?
