purplejackmama Posted February 26, 2015 Share Posted February 26, 2015 Just curious, if you've filed your 2014 taxes how long did it take to receive your refund? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lanny Posted February 26, 2015 Share Posted February 26, 2015 One possible reason for delays of I.R.S. refunds involves people who received tax credits for ObamaCare purchased on the ObamaCare web site. Those people are in 37 states. I believe it also affects people in California and possibly other states that have their own ObamaCare exchanges. The tax information provided to 800,000 people, by the Federal government was wrong. Possibly that involves your return. This article explains: http://taxes.about.com/od/healthcare/fl/problems-with-form-1095a.htm?utm_campaign=list_taxes&utm_content=20150224&utm_medium=email&utm_source=exp_nl Obviously there afre other possible reasons for delayed tax refunds. I hope you receive yours soon! GL Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SparklyUnicorn Posted February 26, 2015 Share Posted February 26, 2015 We received ours in 9 days this year which I think was a record. Same here. With both state and federal. Never got it that quick before in my entire life. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MyThreeSons Posted February 26, 2015 Share Posted February 26, 2015 I used TurboTax to submit mine on Saturday February 14th. Today, the IRS site says that my refund has been approved and will be deposited on Monday, March 2nd. So that is two business weeks, about the average of my past experiences. My state refund was deposited yesterday (the 25th). I did my son's on Friday the 13th, and his refund was deposited on Monday the 23rd. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rachel Posted February 26, 2015 Share Posted February 26, 2015 We filed a week ago Sunday night and had our federal refund by Monday of this week. We haven't received our state refund yet, it usually takes a couple weeks. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DawnM Posted February 26, 2015 Share Posted February 26, 2015 Wow, you guys get your fast. We never file early, and usually file in October. We filed our 2013 taxes Oct. 15th and got our refund in early February!!!!! So, over 3 months to get it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

purplejackmama Posted February 26, 2015 Author Share Posted February 26, 2015 Thanks everyone! We filed on Tuesday, and I would love to see that $ in 9 days :) Also, this is our first year with a state income tax refund so I hope Missouri is equally fast. :)) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Amy in NH Posted February 26, 2015 Share Posted February 26, 2015 We e-filed ours January 22nd using H&R Block Freefile online. Standard 1040A, no itemized deductions, although we did have an education credit, additional child tax credit, and EIC. It was essentially the same return as last year with the difference being the recapture of $600 health care act subsidies. They are still "processing" it. As of last Friday we are in a 30-day waiting period before we can move up the chain of inquiry (unless they release it before then, but I'm not holding my breath). I'm afraid when the 30-days are up they will just have another 30-day process, and another... I really need that money. I wish I could charge the government interest and penalties like they would to me if I held up their tax money. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But it doesn't start running until at least the due date of the return. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spryte Posted February 26, 2015 Share Posted February 26, 2015 Whoa! Did you itemize your deductions? Yes. We have a CPA, and she filed electronically - I don't know how it all happened so fast. I was stunned to see it in our account so quickly. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Amy in NH Posted February 26, 2015 Share Posted February 26, 2015 You actually can get interest on a refund. But it doesn't start running until at least the due date of the return.

Tsuga Posted February 26, 2015 Share Posted February 26, 2015 Not yet. I usually file earlier but have a new job that gets W2s out late so I didn't file until February. :( Sad me. Last year I got it in four days!!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Peach Posted February 27, 2015 Share Posted February 27, 2015 Things do seem to be moving faster. I filed electronically on Tuesday and got an email 2 hours later that the IRS had accepted it, which normally takes 2 or 3 days. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
