TurboTax EIN error notification after 2 months - Anyone else get this?
Filed my taxes back in January and refund status was just sitting there pending. Today TurboTax finally told me there was a digit missing in my EIN number. Anyone else deal with this? How long after fixing did you get your refund?

Tax pro here. EIN errors are actually pretty common and can definitely cause delays. The good news is that once corrected, these usually process within 2-3 weeks. Make sure you resubmit ASAP to get the ball rolling.

100% legit! It uses AI to read your transcript and breaks everything down. Even shows you what codes mean and estimated dates
