Plucky Posted February 15, 2012 Share Posted February 15, 2012 Did you get your return? How long did it take to get? Have you not received it? How long have you been waiting? I was told yesterday that it was delayed. I checked the irs site and it said I would have it in two weeks. Just curious how this is going for everyone.

Mommy_of_4 Posted February 15, 2012 Share Posted February 15, 2012 Mine was filed and accepted on the 3rd and I still can't get a direct deposit date. IRS website tells me it hasn't even been processed yet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm hoping if we all see how common the delays are we won't panic. :001_smile: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SweetBean Posted February 15, 2012 Share Posted February 15, 2012 Did you file late? No, early actually. We completed an adoption, and all adoption refunds were reviewed last year. Since we will have another adoption finalization on this year's return, we have been told by our accountant to not even bother to file early.

MelAR05 Posted February 15, 2012 Share Posted February 15, 2012 Update: We are aware that some taxpayers who have filed electronically and received an acknowledgement from the IRS are concerned when they visit "Where's My Refund" and are told that we have no information regarding their return. This is a temporary situation, and we expect to resolve the matter in a few days. At that time, taxpayers will be able to get an expected refund date when they visit "Where's My Refund." If a taxpayer received an acknowledgment message that their e-filed tax return has been received, they can be assured that the IRS has the tax return even though "Where's My Refund" does not reflect that. Taxpayers should not call the IRS unless specifically directed by "Where's My Refund," as there is no new information to give them. We expect the vast majority of tax refunds to continue to be issued within the historical range of 10 to 21 days. The IRS is taking steps to update information so that Where's My Refund has current information. The IRS apologizes for any inconvenience and will provide updated information as soon as possible. Just saw this on www.irs.gov under "Where's My Refund". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kipling Posted February 15, 2012 Share Posted February 15, 2012 We filed on the ninth and it was accepted almost immediately. We were first told to expect the refund on the 22nd, but then we got an email saying there was a delay. Where's my refund showed a new date of 2/28. I just checked it tonight, and now it says 2/17 :confused: Hopefully that's true. We'll see. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Audrey Posted February 15, 2012 Share Posted February 15, 2012 I've seen this question a LOT on other forums as well.

Lady Marmalade Posted February 15, 2012 Share Posted February 15, 2012 You have no idea how glad I am to see this thread! We e-filed on Feb 8th, and it was accepted within 10 minutes by the IRS. We were told a potential depost of today. Of course, there's no deposit today, and in the last few days I've been trying to look up the status on the website- all I got was errors. Just a short while ago I checked again, and I now have a status that says to expect a refund by the 28th. Whew. I sure wish it was coming earlier, but as long as it's soon I'll be okay with it.

PentecostalMom Posted February 16, 2012 Share Posted February 16, 2012 We filed on the 5th of January, when dh got his W2. However, the IRS did not begin accepting returns until the 17th of January. It was accepted the same day, and the IRS site said we should receive direct deposit by January 28th. However, a few days later it said the IRS was having processing delays and it would be February 9th, which it was. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ZooRho Posted February 16, 2012 Share Posted February 16, 2012 I did see something on the news about delays because of checking the validity of it. Dh is swamped with work stuff so he hasn't filed ours yet. We have had a Tax preparer here that is causing lots of news since they aren't honest. and people aren't getting refunds. http://www.wavy.com/dpp/news/local_news/wavy-interviews-mo-money-ceo-in-memphis Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HLDoll Posted February 16, 2012 Share Posted February 16, 2012 (edited) I filed on Feb 8th and WMR says it should be deposited on the 28th. I think 3 weeks is a really long time to process a direct deposit. I feel like in years past we saw the money in about a week. ETA: grrr. Checked today (2-22) and now the site says due to delays, our deposit date is March 6. That's almost a month!

TravelingChris Posted February 22, 2012 Share Posted February 22, 2012 OUrs came today. I filed on Jan 31st. I got an email and confirmation number on Feb 6 and on the site it said we would get it on Feb 15th. On Feb 14th, I got an email saying it was delayed. Then I tried the website to see when we would get it. At that point, it said they didn't have our return. I called them and they couldn't locate our return. Then a few days later, they said we would have it by Feb 28th. We got it today. The IRS agent said they were delayed because they were checking for fraud more closely since they were burned so badly last year. That was fine but a) my return was about a fraud proof as possible- same three children for the last 16 years, dh has the same job for the last 24 years, no weird deductions or credits, only college credit is for an 18 year old and is minimal since she has a full tuition scholarship, etc. We didn't have the first time buyer credit that they fear a lot of fraud with. SO anyway, I bet when they actually looked, they saw it was the same as every year so nothing suspicious and then they issued the refund earlier than the second time they said.
