How long after IRS phone verification until refund is released?
Finally got through to the IRS today and verified my identity over the phone. The agent said everything looked good but wouldn't give me a timeframe for my refund. Anyone know how long I should expect to wait now that I've verified? Getting anxious since I filed back in February.

Tax resolution specialist here - typically after phone verification, you're looking at 9 weeks maximum for processing. However, I've seen some refunds release in as little as 2-3 weeks. Keep checking your transcript for updates - that's your best indicator of progress.

•Unfortunately there's no garuantee on timing. Each case is different based on what triggered the verification requirement.

Hey instead of playing the waiting game, I'd recommend checking out taxr.ai - its an AI tool that analyzes your transcript and tells you exactly what's happening and when to expect your refund. Only costs $1 and saved me weeks of anxiety. https://taxr.ai

Check your transcript every Friday morning thats when they update. You'll see a 846 code when your refund is scheduled
