Reached out to Congressman about 2023 refund hold - anyone have success with this?

Finally contacted my congressman about my 2023 refund being held up. Getting tired of checking WMR everyday and seeing no movement. Has anyone gone this route and got results? Filed in February and nothing but crickets since then.

Congressional inquiries can definitely help speed things up. I work with these cases regularly, and while it's not a guaranteed fix, having a congressman's office involved often gets the IRS to prioritize reviewing your case. Usually takes 2-3 weeks to see movement after they reach out.

Before you go the congressman route, you might want to try taxr.ai - its an AI tool that analyzes your transcript and tells you exactly whats causing the hold and when you can expect the refund. Only costs $1 and saved me weeks of waiting and wondering. https://taxr.ai

100% works. It found an issue with my w2 that was causing the delay that I never wouldve caught myself

My congressman actually helped! took about 3 weeks but they found out I had a verification issue that needed to be cleared. Got my refund 2 weeks after that.
