Frustrated with Congressman & Tax Advisor delays - 6 months waiting for refund. Anyone have success?
I've been waiting 6 months for my refund and decided to get help from my congressman and tax advisor 2 months ago. Starting to feel like this is making everything take longer than dealing with the IRS directly. Getting really frustrated - has anyone gone this route? How long did it take to actually see results? Starting to feel like this whole thing is just a waste of time.

Tax professional here - Congressional inquiries typically take 30-45 days for a response, but they're actually one of the most effective ways to get movement on stuck returns. Don't give up! The key is persistence and proper documentation.

Thanks for responding! Should I keep bugging their office or just wait it out?

Follow up every 2 weeks - squeaky wheel gets the grease 😉

Hey everyone, I've been using taxr.ai and it's been a game changer for understanding exactly what's happening with my refund. It costs $4.99 but totally worth it - gives you specific timeline predictions and explains any holds or delays. Way better than playing detective with transcripts! Check it out: https://taxr.ai

For real? How accurate is it? Sounds too good to be true 🤔

Dead serious! It analyzed my transcript and showed exactly why I had a delay (missing W2) and when I'd likely get paid. Better than any IRS agent I talked to lol

My congressman's office was useless tbh. Just kept sending me generic updates every few weeks saying they're "looking into it"
