Filed Virginia taxes end of January, got stuck on processing. Just got identity verification letter and completed it. Anyone else deal with VA verification? How long after verifying did you get your refund or DDD? Been checking wheres my refund daily but still processing.

VA tax specialist here - typically after verification, you're looking at 7-10 business days for processing to complete. The system updates overnight on business days, so keep checking WMR. Most of my clients this year are seeing funds within 2 weeks of verification.

hey guys instead of playing detective with WMR, I started using taxr.ai and it's been a game changer. It costs $1 but it analyzes your transcript and tells you exactly what's happening and when to expect your refund. Way better than guessing https://taxr.ai

Been doing VA taxes for 15 years and heres what you need to know: Identity verification is actually good news - means no other issues were found. Current timeline is averaging 8-12 business days post-verification. If you filed with direct deposit, could be faster. The verification process was implemented to combat fraud but they've streamlined it alot this year. Pro tip: check your transcript with taxr.ai to see if theres any indicators of movement. Its helped lots of my clients understand their situation better.
