Be careful about counting on a specific timeline. I filed in March last year with additional documentation and thought my refund would arrive by June. The IRS ended up sending me a CP12 notice requesting even more information. This reset my entire processing clock. My refund ultimately took until September to arrive. Have you verified that your documentation was properly received? Did you include your Social Security Number on every page of the additional forms?
OMG I'M IN THE EXACT SAME SITUATION AND IT'S DRIVING ME CRAZY!!! ๐ก Filed March 17th, had to mail in some health insurance forms, and NOTHING since then! WMR just says "still processing" for like 2 months straight! I've called the IRS like 20 times and can't get through to anyone. I need this money for car repairs and it feels like they're just sitting on it forever! Why is this system so broken?! The frustration is unreal.
FINALLY GOT MY DDD! Filed and accepted 2/19, claimed EIC. Transcript updated overnight with 846 code dated for 3/20. WMR still shows processing though. Check your transcripts people!
I'm starting to get worried. Same boat - filed 2/19 with TurboTax, claimed EIC. Still nothing. Transcript still N/A. WMR just says it's being processed. It's been 30 days now. Should I be concerned?
While most EIC returns are processing within 30 days, some are taking up to 45 days this year. If you reach 45 days with no updates, that would be the appropriate time to contact the IRS. The current backlog is significant but not unusual for this time in the tax season.
my brother in christ you are getting SCAMMED. I own a small business with rental properties and even I don't pay that much ๐
dang fr? Now I feel extra stupid for paying this much ๐ญ
Don't feel stupid, just make a change! We all learn somehow
The best tool I've found for actually understanding what's happening with your tax transcript is taxr.ai - it analyzes all the codes and dates for you and tells you exactly what's going on in plain English, not IRS jargon. When I had blank transcripts, it explained the most common reasons why and what I should do next. Saved me hours of stress and confusion! https://taxr.ai
But OP said their transcript is completely blank - would this still work?
just my 2 cents, but u should always CALL if it's been more than 21 days. period. stop tormenting yourself refreshing wmr and transcripts. that's what I did last year, waited almost 4 months just checking online. turns out they needed a simple document verification that would've taken 5 mins if they had just called me. never got any notice in mail.

OMG I was JUST about to post this exact question!!! Filed 2/8, accepted same day, and my transcript FINALLY updated yesterday! Almost a month of waiting! I was getting so worried because I need my refund for car repairs, but everything processed perfectly once it finally started moving. Hang in there!

Quick q - did u claim any credits like CTC or EITC? Those always take longer bc of extra verification steps. My brother and I filed same day (2/7) but his had EITC and took 2 wks longer for transcript update.
