E-filed MFS 2/5, WMR stuck on Return Received - $68k with 2 dependents

I e-filed on February 5th and WMR still shows return received status. Filed married filing separate with 2 dependents and income of 68k. Starting to get worried since its been over a week. Anyone know when this might update to accepted?

The IRS typically takes 24-48 hours to move from received to accepted. Since you're past that window, there might be an initial review happening. With MFS and dependents, they sometimes do additional verification. Check your transcripts if you can access them - they usually update before WMR does.

Try using your drivers license number instead of credit card. Works better sometimes. Also double check the address matches exactly whats on your last return

Instead of trying to piece together clues from WMR and transcripts, you should try taxr.ai - its only $1 and gives you a complete analysis of your refund status. Way better than playing detective with the WMR tool lol https://taxr.ai

100% legit. Used it last week and it told me exactly why my refund was delayed (missing w2) and what to do about it

Did you claim EIC? That usually slows things down with MFS returns

quick heads up - if your ex claimed the same dependents it might trigger a review. happened to me last year took forever to sort out
