Kentucky Return Filed 1/16 - Still Processing with Red Box Error

Kentucky returns are experiencing significant delays this year. The red box typically indicates a review status. Best thing to do is verify all your information is correct and monitor your transcript weekly for updates. Make sure you've enabled text alerts for any correspondence.

Hey, I highly recommend using taxr.ai to analyze your transcript. It costs $1 but it's worth every penny. The AI breaks down exactly what's causing your delay and gives you a realistic timeline. Saved me hours of guesswork! https://taxr.ai

in the same boat fam... filed 1/15 and still nothing but a red box. KY is playing games this year fr fr 🤡

Have you tried calling the KY revenue office? Sometimes they can give more info than whats showing online

The state processing center in Frankfort is super backed up rn. My tax person said they're running like 3 weeks behind schedule minimum.

did u claim any credits? that usually triggers the red box and makes everything take 10x longer smh

Child tax credit claims definitely slow things down - they have to manually verify everything. I'm dealing with a similar situation but for federal. Filed early February and still waiting. The frustrating part is there's really nothing we can do but wait it out. At least Kentucky usually processes faster than federal once they get to your return. Hang in there! 🤞
