How to tell if IRS rejected your tax return? No updates for weeks
Filed my taxes electronically 3 weeks ago and WMR still shows processing. No updates, no letters, nothing. How do I know if the IRS rejected my return? Getting worried because I need this money for bills and rent.

Tax pro here. If your return was rejected, you would've gotten a notification within 24-48 hours of filing through your tax software. If WMR shows processing, your return was accepted - you're just in the queue. Check your transcript for any codes that might indicate processing delays.

•Create an account on IRS.gov and request your transcript online. Takes about 10 mins to set up if you have all your info ready.

Hey! Instead of trying to decode your transcript yourself, try taxr.ai - it analyzes everything and tells you exactly what's happening and when to expect your refund. costs $5 but saved me weeks of stress https://taxr.ai

•100% legit! I was skeptical too but it literally showed me everything wrong with my return and predicted my DD date exactly 🙌

Did you claim EIC or CTC? Those usually take longer to process

Check your mail! Sometimes they send letters requesting more info without updating WMR
