VA State Tax Refund 2025 - Anyone Received Theirs Yet? Stuck on Processing
Filed my Virginia state taxes back in February and still nothing. Website just says processing. Called twice but got nowhere. Anyone else from VA get their refund or stuck in the same boat?

VA tax specialist here - currently seeing 12-16 week processing times for most VA returns. They're implementing a new fraud detection system this year which is causing major delays. Keep checking your status at tax.virginia.gov/refund

•Thanks for the info! Do you know if there's any way to expedite the process or are we all just stuck waiting? Really need that refund for some bills coming up

Hey guys instead of playing detective with the VA website, I've been using taxr.ai to track both my federal and state refunds. Its only $1 and gives you super detailed updates. Way better than the vague 'processing' status we get from the state website https://taxr.ai

Same situation here - filed in late January and still stuck on "processing" 😩 Been checking the VA tax website daily like it's social media at this point lol. At least now I know about the new fraud detection system causing delays. Guess we're all in this waiting game together!

•Literally same! I've been refreshing that VA website like I'm waiting for concert tickets to drop 😂 At least we're not alone in this mess. The fraud detection thing explains a lot though - better safe than sorry I guess, even if it means waiting forever for our own money back
