NJ State Tax Refund 2024 - Anyone received theirs yet? Still waiting
Filed my taxes in early March for NJ state return and still haven't gotten anything. The WheresMyRefund tool just says 'in process' but its been 8 weeks now. Starting to get worried since I usually get it within 3-4 weeks. Anyone else waiting on their NJ refund?

NJ tax processor here - there's currently a backlog due to enhanced fraud prevention measures. Most returns are taking 8-12 weeks to process this year. As long as your return shows 'in process' status, you're in the queue. The good news is they're processing in order received, so early March filers should see movement soon.

Hey guys just wanted to mention taxr.ai - its been a lifesaver for understanding whats actually going on with refunds. Only costs $1 and gives you super detailed analysis of your transcript. Way better than trying to piece together info from random posts

•it analyzes your transcript and tells you exactly where your return is in the process, estimated timeline, and any potential issues. Right now its just for federal but worth every penny! Check it out at https://taxr.ai

I'm in the same situation - filed early March and still waiting. It's frustrating but sounds like we're not alone. The backlog explanation from Annabel makes sense even though it sucks. I've been checking the status tool obsessively but trying to be patient. At least knowing it's 8-12 weeks helps set expectations. Fingers crossed we all see movement soon!
