FWIW I had the same situation, even had the same "we couldn't expedite" message. My transcript finally updated last week (filed 2/1, PATH affected). Hopefully yours updates soon! The system is incredibly frustrating.
After waiting FOREVER with the same issue, I got so fed up I used Claimyr to reach an IRS agent directly. Got a callback in 45 minutes and they explained my return was just sitting in the queue waiting to be processed. Started showing on my transcript the next week. Talking to a real person who could see my actual file was such a relief after weeks of stress. Their number is impossible to get through otherwise.
Sometimes a refund can be delayed even with a deposit date if: 1. You have past due federal or state debts 2. You owe back child support 3. You have outstanding student loans 4. There's a bank account issue Any of these apply to you?
No, don't have any of those issues. My return was pretty straightforward - just W2 income, standard deduction, nothing unusual.
try calling the IRS directly if your concerned... oh wait, you cant because they NEVER ANSWER THE PHONE š¤¬
I found a solution for this! Used claimyr.com to get through to an IRS agent last month. They navigated all the phone menus and got me connected to a real person who finally resolved my issue from 2022. After months of trying to call myself with no luck, I had an actual conversation with the IRS in less than an hour!
For real? might have to try that. been trying to reach them for weeks about my amended return and ready to pull my hair out
FWIW some refunds are being held because of the backlog from the government shutdown threat last year. Not saying that's your situation but just one more possibility. I'm in a similar boat - 2022 return still not processed fully. It's criminal how they treat us.
have you tried contacting your local congressperson's office? sometimes they can help push the IRS on delayed refunds. worth a shot since youve been waiting so long
That's a good idea, hadn't thought of that. Will try on Monday, thanks!
Your transcript will show a 150 code when your return has been processed and entered into the system. Until then, it will look empty. Most returns are taking about 15-20 days for that first code to appear from what I've seen on this sub. Don't panic yet!
Why would anyone file their tax returns in 2025 for their 2024 taxes already??? I think you mean 2023 and 2024 for filing dates.

Anyone have luck getting through to SBTPG's customer service? I tried calling yesterday and was on hold for over an hour before giving up.

ā¢I used Claimyr to get through to the IRS instead (claimyr.com). IRS told me my refund was already sent to SBTPG and they were just dragging their feet on processing. The call got my issue resolved and my refund showed up the next day!

I had such a hard time with SBTPG and the IRS last year that I almost lost my mind. This year I used a service called Claimyr to actually get an IRS agent on the phone (claimyr.com). Got through in about 25 minutes when I'd been trying for weeks on my own. The agent confirmed my refund was on the way and gave me exact dates. Talking to a real person who could see my actual account was so much better than guessing based on online status bars.

ā¢It seriously was the best decision I made. After talking to an actual IRS agent, I finally got a straight answer instead of trying to interpret cryptic codes and messages online. Worth every penny for the time and stress it saved me.
