i never trust the apps that offer "faster refunds" or take fees from your refund. They always take longer in my experience. I'd rather wait for direct deposit to my actual bank account.
Update from my end: DDD 3/15 with Venmo, just deposited at 3:35pm. Hope everyone else gets theirs soon!
Just checked and mine arrived too! FINALLY
Are you claiming any credits like Earned Income Tax Credit or Additional Child Tax Credit? Those automatically delay processing until at least mid-February due to the PATH Act, even if you filed in January. That might explain the discrepancy in what you're seeing.
Yes I am claiming EIC. But my WMR is showing the DDD of 3/12 so I think I'm past that PATH Act hold period now? Just wondering why TurboTax hasn't caught up.
If you have a DDD, then yes you're past the PATH Act hold. TurboTax just sucks at updating status - they don't actually have real-time access to IRS systems so they're always behind.
You guys need to stop obsessing over these apps and just wait for your money. Checking 10 times a day won't make it come any faster.
I get it, but the stress isn't helping anything. The IRS runs on their own timeline regardless of how much we check.
I work at a tax office (not TurboTax) and we see this ALL the time. TurboTax's status tracker is garbage - they literally just check WMR themselves and then display it in their app, but often it glitches or fails to update properly. As long as WMR shows your DDD you're fine.
i had the EXACT same issue this year. TurboTax changed from DDD to pending on me too but my refund hit my bank account right on schedule. Don't stress it.
The IRS is a joke. They can take our money instantly but when it comes to giving refunds suddenly everything moves at sloth speed. I'm in the same boat - TT shows pending for 3 weeks now. Called IRS but couldn't get thru the robot hell.
Use Claimyr (claimyr.com) to get through to an agent. Was the only way I finally got answers. IRS had flagged my return for ID verification but never bothered to tell me. Got it cleared up in one call.
thanks for the tip! will check it out. this whole process is driving me insane.
This is actually really common with TT and their banking partner SBTPG. They hold onto refunds for weird reasons sometimes. Best thing to do: 1. Call SBTPG directly (not TT customer service) 2. Check your IRS transcript 3. Make sure your bank info is correct There's also a TT forum specifically for these issues that might have more specific advice.

I spent 3 hours on hold with IRS yesterday trying to figure out why my direct deposit was delayed. was just about to hang up when I remembered claimyr.com from another thread here. Got a call back with an agent in 45 mins! Found out my refund had a small error that needed clearing. Got it fixed and my deposit hit this morning! talking to an agent got my refund released so fast.

LPT: If you really need your refund fast and reliable, just select the paper check option. SIKE! That's even worse š
