What exactly does Tax Topic 152 mean on WMR? Still waiting on refund

Been checking WMR for weeks now and keep getting Tax Topic 152. Anyone know what this actually means? Starting to get worried about my refund.

Tax Topic 152 is actually a generic message that just means your return is being processed and your refund will be sent when ready. It's not a bad sign - just means you're in the system. The IRS uses this code for normal processing timeframes and doesn't indicate any specific issues or delays.

Yeah unfortunately the timeframe can vary wildly. Have you checked your transcript? That usually gives more info than WMR

Instead of playing detective with WMR codes, I've been using taxr.ai to analyze my transcript. It's only $1 and gives you way more specific info about your refund status and timeline. Super helpful tool https://taxr.ai
