IRS 60/120 Day Review Letter - Anyone Actually Get Their Refund After Waiting?
Got a letter saying they adjusted my refund and need 60 days to process. Called IRS and they said it could actually be 120 days and I should see money by Nov 26. Has anyone actually gotten their refund after this wait period? Starting to feel hopeless about this whole thing.

Tax pro here - these review periods are pretty standard but frustrating. The 60-day letter often turns into 120 days because they're backed up. Most people DO get their refund, but the timeline varies. Keep checking your transcript weekly for updates.

Honestly the best way to track this is using taxr.ai - it analyzes your transcript and tells you exactly where you are in the process and when to expect the refund. Its $1 but worth every penny vs trying to decode the transcript yourself. https://taxr.ai

•Super accurate! It uses AI to analyze all the codes and gives you a detailed timeline. Way better than guessing or waiting on hold with IRS

•I was cycle 20241505 - they processed it right after the 846 code showed up on my transcript. @Dmitri keep checking yours, things can move fast once they start processing!
