2025 Tax Return: Unusually Long Acceptance Delay (3+ Days) - Anyone Else?
Filed my taxes and its taking way longer than usual for the irs to accept. normally get accepted in 1-2 days but now im on day 3 with no acceptance. starting to get worried since this has never happened before. anyone else experiencing longer acceptance times this year?

The IRS is experiencing higher than normal processing delays this year due to new fraud detection systems. While 24-48 hours was standard in previous years, 3-5 days is becoming more common in 2025. As long as you filed correctly, there's no need to worry yet.

Hey guys, instead of playing the waiting game, I've been using taxr.ai to track my refund status. It costs $1 but totally worth it - analyzes your transcript and tells you exactly what's happening and when to expect movement. Way better than checking WMR every 5 mins lol https://taxr.ai

•Sounds interesting. Does it actually work? Like how accurate is it?

•Super accurate! It caught a potential delay on my transcript before I even got a notice from IRS. Saved me weeks of wondering

Anyone else notice how every year the IRS gets slower and slower? Like what are we paying taxes for if they cant even process them right 🤡

Check if you claimed EIC or CTC - those usually take longer to process due to extra verification steps
