Ugh, I feel your pain. I've been trying to get info on my refund for weeks now. The IRS website is useless and the phone lines are always busy. It's so frustrating!

I actually found a way to get through to a real person at the IRS! There's this service called Claimyr (claimyr.com) that calls for you, waits on hold, and then connects you when an agent picks up. It costs $20, but it saved me hours of frustration. Here's a video about how it works: https://youtu.be/Jc9x-gysK0

Pro tip: Try calling the IRS right when they open. I got through after only a 30-minute wait last week. Also, make sure you have all your docs ready before you call!

Has anyone else noticed that the refund amounts seem off this year? I was expecting way more based on my calculations. wondering if its just me or if the IRS is messing up 🤔

Alright, let me break this down for y'all. I've been dealing with IRS refund issues for years, and here's what I've learned: 1. Be patient. The IRS is notoriously slow, especially during peak season. 2. Use the 'Where's My Refund' tool, but don't rely on it 100%. It's not always up to date. 3. If you filed electronically and it's been more than 21 days, or 6 weeks for paper returns, then it's time to call. 4. When you call, be prepared with: - Your Social Security number - Your filing status - The exact amount of your refund 5. Best times to call are early morning or right before they close. 6. If you can't get through, try the Taxpayer Advocate Service. They can sometimes help with delayed refunds. 7. If you're really desperate, contacting your local congressperson's office can sometimes work wonders. Remember, persistence is key. Don't give up, and good luck!

Am I the only one who thinks its ridiculous that we have to jump through all these hoops just to get our own money back? The whole system needs an overhaul smh

Hey OP, have you checked if your refund might be delayed due to certain credits? I know the Earned Income Tax Credit and Additional Child Tax Credit can slow things down.
