bout 3 weeks now. WMR still says processing

My refund on turbo tax is more than my refund on chime/column Anyone know why that is? I double checked and made sure I put in all the same info and docs
The whole early deposit thing with Chime is kinda misleading ngl. They only release it when they get it from IRS ๐คทโโ๏ธ
facts ๐ฏ

ur better off going thru HR block if u need an advance. they do RAL's up to $3500
but those fees are crazy tho ๐
15d
tru but if u need $ now its an option
13d
H&R Block gives better advance options imo. They approved me when TT denied me
whats the max they give?
20d
up to $3500 i think but dont quote me on that lol

I'm in the same boat needing $ now but these advance loans are predatory af. The fees eat up so much of ur refund its not even worth it no cap
fr fr they be charging fees on fees on fees ๐

I swear the IRS makes everything 10x more complicated than it needs to be. Why can't they just have a simple online system for this stuff? ๐คฆโโ๏ธ
Preach! ๐ It's like they're stuck in the 1980s or something.

To be fair, they're dealing with sensitive info. But yeah, they could definitely streamline things more.

Has anyone tried going to a local IRS office for this? I heard sometimes that's faster than calling or mailing.
I tried that last year. You need an appointment and in my area, they were booked out for months. YMMV tho
8d
Local office was a game-changer for me! Got everything sorted in one visit. Def worth a shot if you can get an appointment.

I'm in the same boat, OP. Been trying to reach them for months about my OIC. Let me know if you find a good solution!
Will do! Seems like we're all struggling with this. Strength in numbers, right? ๐ช

Has anyone tried reaching out to their local Taxpayer Advocate Service? I've heard they can sometimes help with these issues.
whats the Taxpayer Advocate Service? never heard of it
7d
It's an independent organization within the IRS that helps taxpayers resolve problems. Google it - they might be able to help!

Am I the only one who thinks its ridiculous that we need a special PIN just to file our taxes? ๐ค Like, isn't our SSN enough?
Preach! ๐ The whole tax system is a joke. We need a complete overhaul.
10d
It's for extra security. With all the data breaches these days, I'm kinda glad they're taking extra precautions.
9d
Pro tip: If you cant get your IP PIN online or by phone, you can file Form 15227 to request one. It takes longer, but it's an option if your stuck.
I'm an accountant, and I've seen a lot of delays this year. Make sure you double-check your return for any errors. Even small mistakes can cause significant delays. If everything looks good, it might just be a matter of waiting it out. The IRS is seriously understaffed right now.
Thanks for the insight! I'll definitely go over my return again. Do you know if using tax software helps reduce errors?
5d
Yes, generally tax software helps catch common errors. But it's not foolproof. Always double-check your personal info, income amounts, and make sure you've reported all your income sources.

guys i filed in APRIL last year and still havent gotten my refund. ive called like 50 times. this system is so broken ๐ญ
whats that? never heard of it
1d
It's a free service from the IRS to help with tax issues. Google 'Taxpayer Advocate Service' - they might be able to help!

Have you considered that there might be an error on your return? Sometimes that can cause delays. Double-check everything, especially your math and personal info.
I hadn't thought of that... I'll definitely go back and review everything. Thanks for the suggestion!

Guys I'm telling you, the real move is to just become a corporation. Then you don't gotta pay taxes at all! ๐ง ๐ค
