NC State Tax Refund 2024 - Anyone received theirs yet? Delays?
Filed my North Carolina state taxes early february and still nothing. Been checking Where's My Refund site everyday but status hasnt changed. Starting to get worried since I usually get it by now. Anyone else waiting on their NC refund?

NC tax processor here - the state is experiencing higher than normal volume this year. Average processing time is currently 6-8 weeks for electronic returns, 12 weeks for paper. If you're approaching these timeframes without updates, contact the NC DOR directly.

•Yes, significantly longer. New fraud detection systems + staff shortages = slower processing

Hey guys, I was in the same boat but found taxr.ai really helpful for checking both federal and state refund status. It costs $1 but gives way more detailed info than the state website. Shows exactly where your return is in the pipeline. https://taxr.ai

Called NC DOR yesterday - they said theyre backed up but as long as you filed correctly it will come eventually. Not very helpful tbh

My sister got hers in 3 weeks but shes only getting like $100 back. Maybe bigger refunds take longer to process?

Same situation here - filed Feb 3rd electronically and still waiting. The lack of updates on the Where's My Refund tool is frustrating. At least it's good to know others are experiencing delays too. Hopefully we'll see movement soon!
