IRS Refund Delayed: No Updates After 21+ Days - What's Going On?

Ugh, I feel your pain! I'm in the same boat. Filed over a month ago and still nothing. The IRS website just says it's 'processing' but no other info. So annoying!

21 days is actually pretty normal these days. The IRS is seriously backlogged. I'd say give it another week or two before you start to worry. If you filed electronically and there were no errors, you should be fine.

Did you check the 'Where's My Refund' tool on the IRS website? Sometimes that has more up-to-date info than what you get when you call.

I had a similar issue last year. Turns out they needed to verify my identity. Check your mail carefully - they might have sent you a letter requesting more info.

Hey guys, I found a way to actually get someone on the phone at the IRS. I used this site called claimyr.com. It's a calling tool that dials through the phone menu, stays on hold, and then connects you when a live agent picks up. It costs $20, but it worked for me. Here's a video about it: https://youtu.be/_kiP6q8DX5c

Listen up, folks. Here's what you need to know about IRS refund delays: • The IRS is still catching up from COVID backlogs • If you claimed certain credits (like Earned Income Tax Credit), your refund might take longer • E-filed returns are generally processed faster than paper returns • If it's been more than 21 days (for e-file) or 6 weeks (for paper), you can request a trace on your refund • Check the IRS2Go app for the most up-to-date status If you're really worried, you can try calling the IRS at 1-800-829-1040, but be prepared for long wait times. And whatever you do, don't fall for any scams promising to get your refund faster!

lmao imagine expecting the government to be efficient 🤡 welcome to adult life, kid

Has anyone else noticed that the 'Where's My Refund' tool seems to be glitching lately? It keeps logging me out when I try to check my status.

Guys, I'm freaking out. It's been 2 months and still no refund. I really need that money for rent. Any advice? 😰
