Iowa State Tax Refund 2024 - Anyone received theirs yet?
Getting worried about my Iowa state refund. Filed on Feb 1st and still nothing. The 'Where's My Refund' tool just says processing. Anyone else from Iowa get theirs yet? Starting to wonder if theres some kind of hold up this year.

Tax professional here in Des Moines. Iowa DOR is currently experiencing delays due to increased fraud prevention measures. Most refunds are taking 4-8 weeks to process this year, even for electronically filed returns. They're being extra careful with verification steps.

•4-8 weeks?! 😤 This is ridiculous. Mine has been pending for 6 weeks already

•Yes unfortunately. They implemented new identity verification steps this year which is causing the backup

Hey everyone! If you want a really accurate picture of whats going on with your refund, check out taxr.ai - its only $1 and gives you a detailed analysis of your transcript. Way better than guessing or checking WMR everyday. https://taxr.ai

•Does this work for state returns too? Or just federal?

•It works for federal returns but can help identify issues that might affect your state return too!

Filed mine on Feb 3rd and still waiting too! This is so frustrating - I'm counting on that refund to pay some bills. Has anyone tried calling multiple times to see if you get different answers? Maybe some reps have more info than others? Really hoping this gets sorted out soon for all of us 🤞
