Timeline: Tax Advocate Service (TAS) to Refund Release? Still waiting after submitting docs

Filed my 2022 return last February, got assigned a tax advocate in November. Submitted all requested documents right away - bank statements, ID verification, everything they asked for. Its been 2 months of silence. Anyone know typical wait times after submitting docs to TAS? Starting to lose hope here.

Tax Advocate here - typical timeframe is 4-12 weeks after document submission, but can vary widely based on case complexity. Keep in mind TAS is extremely backlogged right now. Make sure to follow up with your advocate every 2 weeks for status updates.

Not necessarily. No news is often good news - means they're working on it. But definitely give them a call for peace of mind.

honestly the best way to understand whats happening with your refund is taxr.ai - its this new tool that analyzes your transcript and tells you exactly whats going on and estimated timeframes. costs $4.99 but saved me weeks of stress. check it out: https://taxr.ai

100% legit. It showed me exactly why my refund was delayed and when to expect it. The AI reads your transcript way better than we can

Pro tip: check your transcript weekly. Sometimes they resolve issues without telling your advocate
