IRS 2023 Tax Refund Delay - 90 Day Wait After Verification. Any Way to Speed It Up?

I found a way to solve IRS tax refund delays, watch this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oJ6yCU3FecU

Ugh, I feel your pain. I've been waiting since February and still nothing. The IRS is a joke this year 🤡

Pro tip: Don't bother emailing. The IRS doesn't handle inquiries via email for security reasons. Your best bet is to keep calling or use their online tools for updates.

Here's what I've learned after dealing with this mess for months: 1. Keep all your documents organized and ready. 2. Call early in the morning for shorter wait times. 3. Be persistent and call regularly (once a week). 4. Ask to speak with a supervisor if you're not getting anywhere. 5. Check the 'Where's My Refund' tool daily. 6. Consider reaching out to your local Taxpayer Advocate Service. It's a long game, but stay on top of it. Good luck!

I found a method to actually get someone on the phone. I used this site's (claimyr.com) calling tool that dials the phone menu, stays on hold, waits for a live agent to pick up, then sends the call to my phone. It does cost $20, but it works. Here's a video about it: https://youtu.be/_kiP6q8DX5c

Have you checked if you're part of the earned income tax credit (EITC) or additional child tax credit (ACTC) group? Those refunds are often delayed until mid-February due to the PATH Act.

This is why I always file for an extension. Rather wait to file than wait for my refund 🤷‍♂️

Plot twist: the IRS is using our refunds to fund a secret space program 👽🛸
