First IRS Payout Date set on Where’s My Refund 2017
We have many confirmations this morning that Where’s My Refund did update and many individuals have their first 2016 direct deposit date set for Friday, January 27th, 2017. This goes perfectly with our 2017 Refund Schedule.
Did you 2017 direct deposit date not get set yet? If you were accepted after January 20th, 2017, we estimate your direct deposit date to be set next week. Also, just because the IRS doesn’t update your Where’s My Refund page, doesn’t mean that you will not get your tax refund Friday January 27th, 2017. The IRS cannot always get to every taxpayers WMR, so just wait for a Direct Deposit in your bank account.
Quick FAQ about IRS Payout Date being set for early filers:
Q: Does the IRS ever issue direct deposits and tax checks without updating Where’s My Refund?
A: Yes, the IRS has been known to do this every year. At least in the first month of e-filing.
Q: Should I be concerned if I early filed and have not been accepted yet?
A: No, this is only the very first reports of Where’s My Refund Updating. The IRS may continue updating their website over the next two days. Also, sometimes the IRS will split up the first few payouts in half weeks to let the Treasury better handle the depositing workload. I would not be concerned until after the second payout date(February 5th, 2016.)
Q: Me and my friend filed on the same day this year. My friend was approved yesterday and I was not. How is this possible?
A: Even though you and your friend were both in the processing stage, doesn’t mean you will both end up in the production stage. This is the stage where Refund Dates are set, also not everyone has their Where’s My Refund updated before receiving their refund.
Q: I was able to put my 2016 Tax Return Transcript, does this mean I will get my refund earlier?
A: No, the IRS has said many times that your transcript in no way impacts when you will get your refund. It is basically part of the processing stage(being accepted, not approved.)
Q: Why are people who filed after me being approved before me?
A: Every tax return is different, some have different forms, forms are handled differently so no tax return is the same. No taxpayer can compare their tax return to another’s or the Direct Deposit Date with another.

We have some screenshots sent in by our awesome Facebook community below:
I filed on the 12th of January. It showed accepted on the 13tih, but nothing else has updated. Should i be worried?
Mysti, not every taxpayer who filed early was approved today. There could be approvals tomorrow and Friday as well.
Same here
Q: Me and my friend filed on the same day this year. My friend was approved yesterday and I was not. How is this possible?
The same here. I filed on the 11th and it was accepted on the 12th. It still just shows accepted as of right now.
Same Here
Still on one bar as of 10:00am this morning.
i filed 1-7-16 got accepted 1-11-16 but still one bar yet ppl who filled a week after me have gotten the second bar. 🙁
Your not alone, I filed on the 13th and got accepted on the 13th and I’m only on 1 bar also. So don’t feel bad.
yea its just wierd how it all works just the antisipation sucks.
Hey Ashley anything new?
has anything changed for you on the WMR site?
Nothing has changed at all. I’m still stuck at one bar. This has never ever happen to me before. I have the app and I go to the site and check and nothing has changed at all. 🙁
same here, the waiting is what’s killing me, i did check my account just to see, and of course nothing, do they update on weekends do you know? or do we have to wait for Monday now?
I highly doubt they update on weekends. My good friend of mine is a CPA in state of Florida (Which is the state in live in) and he keeps posting on his Facebook IRS updates and he currently stated the IRS
is only releasing less that 1% of tax refund of those who filed early and that are under $1000 to prevent any type of identity theft. My co worker received his refund on Wednesday of this week but on the other hand his refund was only $84.00. I think im going to give them a call today to see whats the deal. They can at least update the WMR site?
Ok, Thanks, I don’t know if they will give you any Info, you know how they can be, please keep me posted, my refund is over $4k i sure hope I don’t have to wait the full 21 days, i wont be happy…………..Lol’
last year it was between 8-10 days it was in my account
Mines to, I got mines in 10 days.
Yes I will keep you posted.
I just went over my return, I put the amount of federal wrong that I paid in, its like a $140 more then what I paid, go figure I had it backwards, wonder how long its going to take me now to get my return, always something, not for bad luck I’d have none l swear
Hey Ashley anything new? Nothing new with me at all. IDK WTH is going on!
nope nothing its getting deppressing i really need the money had to pay my rent today and my son will be out diapers sunday and cant buy anything till next payday its bs. called and talked to a representitive who said it may have been accepted the 11 but they didnt start processing till 19th so 21 days from the 19th which is bs. says 21 days rom the date they recieved it. just gonna continue to get the run around
Same here doesn’t make any since
Yea not making since to me either i filed 1/9 accepted 1/11
Mine was filed on the 7th and accepted the 11th
I’ve gotten a text from turbo tax saying that the Irs accepted my taxes on the 14th of jan .. But when I check on irs website it says no info can be provided should I be worried
They have alot of traffic right now so no dont be worried about that
You need to make sure you are putting n the correct refund amount – that being just your Federal refund amount, not your State added.
I filed on 1-12 and was accepted on 1-14 and my return was accepted but it’s still pending approval as well.
Mines as well. Still stuck
AnY update
Yes my WMR has been updated and a daye was given
Oh that’s nice..I hope the rest of us get something this week!
I did mine of the 18th accepted on the 19th and I’m still on the first bar :(.
any up dates for u
No still one bar
Feb 3
any updates
any update
my boyfriend got his state BEFORE his federal, that NEVER happens! the federal site hasn’t been updated yet, we’re both still on one bar!
I don’t have any bars
I don’t either. I had bars at the beginning of the week and then a few days ago they disappeared.
I did have bars to begin with
For the one who filed with Turbo Tax and the IRS still shows nothing, I would be worried!
Why you say that plz
I was just saying that because if the IRS doesn’t show you have filed, it may have not been submitted from Turbo Taxes side. If it still shows it hasn’t, I would call Turbo Tax and see what is going on.
I filed with turbo! Does this usually happen with Turbo? I have used them for 2 years and never once have had an issue!
I’ve filed with Turbo Tax for several years and have not had any issues. Turbo Tax is one of the best online e-file programs to use so I’m not worried at all. I understand what Juan Pizarro is saying but it shouldn’t just be directed at Turbo Tax. Any tax program could have that issue.
If it hasn’t been accepted, then there is an issue. I had the same thing happen to me and my CPA put in a wrong EIN number. As soon as he corrected the mistake, it was accepted in minutes.
Any updates
I woke up yesterday to a DDD of 2/3. It was on the approved bar
Lucky you
I had a friend who filed on turbo few days before me and her refund was approved yesterday
do you know what date she filed by chance? and did they give her a DD date?
this year they are checking into everything because a billion and so.was stolen from people.other people applied in their names before they could and stole their checks.like 58 billion dollars.so they are really verifying addresses etc if you oved they are sending pin numbers to be verified va phone etc their catching scammers.
So has anyone on here got their refund yet they say many have I’m just wondering
I filed on 1/9 got accepted on 1/11, i filed same thing like for the past 8 years but still stuck on that one bar which is nothing like i have experienced in the past at all. I just dont know whats going on. Just hope i get my money tomorrow or at least the 21 day mark which is Monday.
from what I was told, the date they really started processing was the 19th, that’s the day I did my E-file, I checked this morning and I’m still on the first bar, they say we should get our refunds by Feb 5th, I think last year I got mine within 8-10 days, I sure hope it’s soon, nothing has changed except I’m not claiming one of my grandchildren like l did last year, just one. I freak out every year.. if anyone has received theirs please let us know, Thanks!
I usually get mine within 12 days, as does my boyfriend. We both were able to file on the 20th, and the 21st, so I am estimating ours to be deposited hopefully by the 5th, since it’s only been about 7-8 days! Crossing my fingers! Hope we all get refunds soon 🙂
Yes I’m hoping by the 5th, of course I would like them Now, bit I guess a extra week wont hurt, I’ll keep you posted and let you know when I get mine,
I did not get mine, nor did my site get updated!
Did anyone get theirs? my boyfriend got his state BEFORE his federal, that NEVER happens!
My friend filed two days before me and got accepted same day as me her status bar moved yesterday morning, says money will be deposited from 1/29 so that feb 5th stuff not true necessarily
I don’t know what’s going on ibfiled on the 1/9/16 was accepted and its still stuck on one bar never been like this before I’m check the web
no i filed on 1/10 accepted 1/12 and stuck on first bar still…;( my 21 days is up on 2/3 yet irs agemts are saying 2/9 is 21 days . called about 7 times and each agent said same thing ;( i dont think even the irs knows…..but ill bet irs emploees got tjeir returns today…lol
I don’t know and you are in my deepest prayers for you and your family and I hope yours come soon
I filed on 10th and got accepted on the 11th still stuck on one bar wtf is going on ?!?!?
Me to bro. Stuck on one bar also. Filed on 13th and accepted same day
Irs said there is a glitch in the system,an they are not giving out any information on tax returns
where did you see this? do you know if they are doing the deposit’s and not showing the dates?
I called an they said if you filed b4 the 19,it will be the 29 are the 5 of February
An yes they are cause the system is not working
I would also like to know if anyone hear shows a refund date yet.
i filed mines on the 19th and its still in one orange bar like wth
AnY updates
I filed on the 8th on the IRS site I’m on one bar but on the Jackson Hewitt site it says I’m accepted and waiting on my funds which are pending. I hope I get mine tomorrow. It’s hard to wait patiently ?
I filed on and was accepted on 1/19 and its says approved and I should expected my deposit on 1/29
did u check on WMR? I did mine on the 18 actual date, accepted on the 19th, I still have one bar, now I’m getting worried, they did want my drivers license at the end I gave them all my info, same status as last year, except, I’m only claiming one grandchild this year not two.
I have lived at the same address for 14 years, only thing I changed was my email.
We field on the 19th of January… And also had our tax person do a injured spouse for efile.. Has it been know for it to take less than 8 weeks to get it back
Do The Paper Checks Take Longer Than The Direct Deposits? Or Does The Filing Date Only Matter?
I filed on the 14th and was accepted on the 19th and I’m still at one bar on WMR
I filed on the 15 Jan got accepted on the 20 Jan still on first bar it’s driving me crazy!!! ?
I filed the 7th accepted the 11th and no update I was in the test batch wtf
What time should it come today? Does anyone know??
It should be there first thing in the morning after 6am
Anyone know wht time the deposits should hit the accounts. I filed through h&r block and was accepted on 1-14 so im hoping mine goes in this morning but so far 0.00 balance
did you get a DDD?
No i didnt i got accepted on the 14th so i was hoping i Would be in the 29th group but the 29th is almost over and nothing. Will they only do more deposit on feb 5th or do they do them throughout the week?
Filed on the 19th accepted on the 19th..still one bar…bummer…but i did read some place that it needed to be accepted before 11 am to be with the first cut of deposits…again..bummer….mine was accepted at 230
Your expected refund delivery is between January 19 and February 8
The IRS expects to issue more than 9 out
of 10 refunds in less than 21 days.
3% of TurboTax customers whose returns
were also accepted on January 11 have received their money.
3%
have received their money already
I filed @ 15 it was accept on the 18 at midnight for the first batch what I was told by h& r block , but I’m stuck on the frist bar what the hell last year it took a week cuz we almost got kick off apt . were behind all our bill and it saved us and nothen as of today @ 600 am
I just spoke to a “friendly” irs rep and he told me anyone who received a refund got a RAL and it wasn’t from the irs, they have not sent out any refunds.
I filed on the 11th
Accepted on the 12th
State TN one bar still
Not true. I am a tax preparer and I filed my mom’s taxes myself last week and she got both her federal and state yesterday. Some of my other clients were scheduled to receive theirs today and some (including myself) do not have a date yet.
He sounded like a robot, prompted to say an automatic response. I always used a preparer myself but this year used tax act and am scared I did something. Seems like it should be today but don’t have it as of 3:22 pm. Last year it came about this time
I used tax act also and last year i got it in the 29th. You proably did fine when filing cause tax act uses flag alerts before you process the final efile.
Well I was accepted on the 12th so I assumed I would get my refund today, someone said it will be in the morning? Beats me but I’m bummed
I know how u feel..i didnt get mine either ;(…the statement this site made about gettin ur refund even if the WMR didmt change obviously isnt true..;( i Filed mine on 1/10 accepted on 1/12 and im STUCK at that first bar still…my.21 days is up on 2/2 this tuesday but irs keeps sayimg that 21 days is 2/9,..Also i doubt anyones refunds will dep tomorrow because its a weekend…if we are lucky enough we might get them on monday or tues…never ever had this issue in the whole 32 yrs ive filed taxes..hopin posts soon i have 3 mo old granddaughter i am raising and her 22yr old momma who has liver cancer and could pass away any day unless We Find her a liver ;( i desperately need this money…been prayin since jan 12 but still no money ;( need all the prayers i can get ;(
Bless ur heart. Sending prayers, I just read that the irs will be sending ddd over the next two days and it splits the work load so the treasury can handle it. I hate this wait. The irs won’t tell you anything. Not sure if their computers still send on the weekends. Maybe? Anyone know?
those computers obvioysly do something on weekends becayse its now showing they have no info on me to allow 4 weeks fron time i mailed…i DIDNT MAIL it i EFILED it…now gotta wait til monday to talk to the idiots ;(
Did you do anything different this year on your taxes? From what I have seen in the past this screen could mean a review, which just means an actual person will be looking at your return, and then if finds no discrepancies will process it but yeah it is best to call them Monday
i know what you mean Diana, I’m arsing my 10 yr old grandson, yesterday was his Bday and couldn’t do anything with him, but he’s such a good sport, I told him as soon as l get my taxes we will go do something, my husband lost his job of 26 yrs, No unemployment , thank the good lord, he was offered a decent paying job yesterday and starts on Tuesday, first time in 16 yrs we’ve been late on a house note, last year i got mine in 8-10 days, this is 2016 i know they had tons of fraud last year, but for the ones who file the same every year should know who we are by now, it’s crazy, good thing i have a decent job, but all i’m thinking about is paying that house payment, hope we all get ours next week, was accented on the 19th before 11am, i hope to see a different bar on monday.
Have a good weekend, and God Bless i know how it is to raise a grandchild, had him almost 4 yrs now. 🙂
Hey was yours updated?
as of 5:45 am this morning no, now i’m getting really worried, still one bar and Topic 152, like it has been 🙁
Me too
I’m so sorry about your Daughter i didnt read all of your post,
My Thoughts and Prayers are with you and your Family, God Bless you All,
I will keep her in my Thoughts xox
I have not tax related information to provide, but I am saddened by your situation and I want you to know that you and your family are in my prayers.
Diana go check yours again and see WMR updated mines its on the second bar For me and I’m hoping the same for you
When will your be deposit mines say Monday
Nothing has changed for me..but we will see
Hopefully mines will hit the bank today if not it will be Tuesday
That’s good..You mean Monday? If not today, Monday.
It say Feb 3 do you think sooner Asia
I have direct deposit so it should come before the 3rd
Nope it updated alright..says no info can be found plz alliw 4 weeks from date i mailef the return…I DIDNT MAIL IT I EFILED IT AND IT WAS ACCEPTED ON 1/12 …are these people at irs that dang stupud….;(
You should call it might say that because they might already approved it just keep checking your card
Check yours it might changed mines did
Oh wow lucky you
Did you get a update yet
No..I didnt..I guess we will see this week..
Tonight check it mines said it should be in my account on the 3rd me and my mom and my sister hers didn’t update and we did ours the same time we got accepted on the 12th
Tonight, like Sunday?
Did you check yours yet
yep..bar still on the first one
Did you call your tax payer
i did it via turbo tax
Oh
Have you checked your state mines had to be reprocess it keep saying no information found
oh i got state last week friday
My sister got her state yesterday they had to reprocess mines
filed on the 7th, accepted on the 11th and still on the first bar. No deposit in the account either 🙁
So, for those of us who are not seeing bars who had bars, people are reporting that they are able to order both transcripts, so I would not be too worried right now.
Exactly
Mines didn’t change yet and I been accepted on the 12th hopefully I get mines today and my sister got her state refund yesterday they had to reprocess mines ?
Well i got accepted on the 14th chart said that acceptance date deposit should be on the 29th and the 29th is almost over and no deposit will they be doin deposits throughout the next week or is it only on the 5th
Pay out should have been the 29th. That’s the date they post on the IRS website. From there it depends on how long your bank takes. You will probably receive it Monday morning.
Is there anychance even though i got accepted on the 14th that my payout will not be till the 5th. My bank is the h&r emerald card but the wmr site is still stuck on accepted for me.
I’ve actually seen it hit the same day the second bar appears. Sometimes that site is behind.
Did your deposit finally come?
No deposit still my bar disappeared this morning but still didnt have a ddd monday night. Im hoping to be part of the Wednesday deposits Thursday will be 21 days since i was accepted so im praying
Best of luck!
has this happened to anyone ore know what it means. if i had one bar showing when i checked last now the bar meter is not even showing up. and it says something about my refund being processed?
Says it’s being reviewed prior to step two. See pic
Hi all…state NC…filed on 12th accepted on 13th. Still saying refund received. 29th is here and still no money. This is getting out of hand. Last yr I filed on the 13th…accepted and approved on 31st…paid on the 2nd of Feb. Not sure what’s going on but I’m getting worried and Pissed at the same time.
Any updates?
Nope…Nothing. Still stuck on 1 bar!!
Still no change. In just not understanding how things are working this yr. This is complete BS. My 21 days will be up on Feb 3 and I still have no changes. I stupid bar. Last yr the 31st was on a Saturday and they still processed claims. I got mine on the 2nd which was that Monday….last yr. This yr we can’t get shit….smh
I can order 2015 transcripts does that mean my refund is complete?
Both account and return?
Yea both of them I’m still at 1 bar though
Cool…on the return transcript it shows the refund amount and good stuff, which is was able to view online last year but not this year
Wow I filed on 1/11 and was accepted that same day but IRS Where’s My Refund still just saying Refund Received and being processed. Guess I wasn’t one the lucky ones. 🙁
any update
Yes finally approved.
thats great… **sighing**
Mine was accepted on the 19th, still one bar. Anyone have idea on possible hold ups? I used TT like i do every year
used TT as well
hopefully by Thursday we will know if we get refund Friday i never waited more than two weeks. from the Jan 22nd to Feb 5 is two weeks
I hope so too…
yes because I need it for my down payment on a new car so that I can have a reliable car
I feel you
I filed early morning January 24th and it was immediately accepted. I check like a fiend 87 times a day (they kicked me out for the day) and here I am on February 4th and it’s in the same status (first bar). Historically I let my daughter’s mother claim my daughter even though my daughter is with me 5 days a week but this year I claimed her with my ex wife’s approval so that should hold no bearing as long as nobody else claims my baby. What is going on? I’m going to need that money soon. Real soon.
Correction, My return was accepted on January 22nd.
What’s happening? Is this real life? I want to know, who will stop the rain? The financial forecast is dismal with a 95% chance of broke AF
I filed on the 20th and it was accepted the same day. The WMR showed as received and then a week later the WMR shows “no information found”. Still no refund has been deposited. Ughh! I filed head of household and 1 child.
I filed the 19th with taxAct, accepted by Fed on 19th, accepted by State (Michigan) on 20th. As of today – still no movement off the first bar BUT got my State deposit today! (minus the MI Secretary of State Drivers Responsibility Fee that I have a payment plan on and have never missed or been late with. Guess my payment plan is done now.) I’m guessing Fed deposit will be any day despite no updates. Hope this helps all!
How long did it take to get your state ??
Well – I filed the 19th and state accepted 20th. I got the money on 2/2 so…the 14 days from the date I filed it hit my bank account.
Me 4 days after I filed
Mines had to be reprocess and it have been 2 weeks now and nothing showing up that its processing
I got my state first too
I got my state back four days after I filed but they took it for a bill I owed. If I got my state back does that mean I will get my federal as well I do not owe anything to the IRS I called the number and checked
I filed on the 22nd of January by turbo tax and it said it was accepted and being processed. So we will see. I also was able to order account transcript, not return transcript, today.
What does topic 152 mean and why is it on there when I check wmr
Mines saying the same thing what it means
I’m trying to find that out too.
We also field a injured spouse with it electronically… And they told me it could be less then 8 weeks
I file on the 6th of Jan n got accepted on the 13th it was on one bar for two weeks n than jump to the 152 I think I’all give them a call on tomorrow to see what it means
I sure would… They are very behind on things,due to making sure no fraud takes place,….
it means your return is a direct deposit not a check, click the code and read for more info on the wmr
Thz
It’s just a general message for everyone.
Any updates yet
Nope not at all still on one bar,
You?
Nothing the same still 152 topic
152 means your return is going to be a direct deposit, you can click the code and it tells you.
Mine still stuck
Mine also
I filed 13 accepted on 14th they opened the 19th still 1bar. Wth. This sucks big time.
It says received being processed. Then at bottom tax topic 152 what is that. ?
Anyone here from jersey?
New update will have mines on Tuesday
When did it update cause I filed on the 11 accepted on the 13 ,and still one bar.
My tax prepare text me and told me it changed and I will have my money on Tuesday and my sister received her state 2 days ago they had to reprocess mine

Hay Asia! Did your status ever change before your deposit?
It changed to approved and never changed after that I received my money on my card yesterday at 5pm

any updates
Anyone in Maryland or DC area
The website updated check it on there instead of the app
Removing app as we speak
Me too
I will stick to the website
I filed the 19th accepted the 19th still stuck on the first bar
Filed 1/17 accepted 1/19 on the IRSGO site is shows one bar but on the website it shows we are processing your return with no bars… Why is it doing this?
Mine says the same thing. It was one bar until today. Now it say it is being processed.
My wives show a refund date for the 3rd as of today. we both filed on the 11th and was accepted on the 12th.
Well that’s good news
Hopefully it updates tomorrow
Hope so
mine says processing also but I have one bar.
On the website or the app?
website
If I were u guys I wouldn’t bother with wmr, just go to santa barbara bank website to check on the refund. You can google santa barbara tax products group this is the bank that handles your deposit sent from the irs. Once you see a date on their page, you know when your money is coming. I’m stuck on one bar as well.
So did it give you any different Information?
If u check the bank website it will show if your money has been deposited to them. The irs website will show u a direct deposit date, but u will be able to see when it has been sent out on the banks website. Sometimes wmr doesn’t even update but ur money will post on the other website.
Yes I seen. They haven’t received anything as of yet
I’m more concerned now because now my bar is gone and went to your refund is being processed
You might have your ddd soon, no worries, it’s coming.
Ok once we go to the site where do we find the date because my WMR SITE sat on 1 bar til today and now i cant log in says they have no information on me i have to eait 4 weeks ftom when i mailed it…I DIDNT MAIL I E FILED THOUGH TURBO TAX AND ACCEPTED ON 1/12 stil no refund….help? Uggggh shaking fists….my daughter is terminally i and im taking care of het and het 3 mon old baby girl i desperately neef my money…no time play games with irs ;(
This is why I never file before the IRS actually start accepting. It seems when you wait you get your refund faster
Someone must really hate me bevause as i said i went from accepted the last 3 weeks to we have no information plz allow 4 weeks from when u mailed ur return…i didnt mail it i efiled…how is this even possible? I know the WMR is updayed by ppl and im hoping its just a glitch tjst simeone update wrong…but now i gotta sit and wonder until 7am monday ;( tjis is so wrong
anyone filed on January 22nd? I did. it was a Friday.
I sure did
I filed January 22nd. turbo tax says I was accepted same day. irs says one orange bar. last year the same thing happened and I got my return without knowing the date
I just checked that santa barbara products group and they havent received my refund ;( whicj means someone at the irs really messed up 🙁 because thete is NO WAY u can e file and b accepted sit like that for 18 days and then suddenly not b able to login becausr theu claim theu have no information on u and are assuming u mailed ur return…I EFILED…….can anyone explain tjis? I havr never had issues in 32 yrs and someone in FL said same exact thing happenef to her todau…what is going on????? ;(
My dad checked his it said no information could be found it was saying that at first I think its the computer system
Your tax return is still being processed.
A refund date will be provided when available. Anybody else getting this?
Me too
The Internal Revenue Service suffered a “hardware failure” on Wednesday afternoon, which left many of its tax processing systems unavailable Wednesday night, the agency announced in a statement.
The agency stopped accepting electronically filed tax returns because of the problem. The outage could affect refunds, but the agency said it doesn’t anticipate “major disruptions.”
“The IRS is still assessing the scope of the outage,” the agency said. “At this time, the IRS does not anticipate major refund disruptions; we continue to expect that nine out of 10 taxpayers will receive their refunds within 21 days.”
The IRS.gov website remains available, but “Where’s My Refund” and other services are not working.
Some systems will be out of service at least until Thursday, the agency said. “The IRS is currently in the process of making repairs and working to restore normal operations as soon as possible,” the IRS said.
Taxpayers can continue to send electronic returns to companies that serve as middlemen between taxpayers and the IRS. But those companies have to hold on to the tax returns until the IRS systems are up and running again, the IRS said.
this is what I just read on the MSN new site just a minute ago. FML! 🙁
So with that being said if WMR still considered down. I filed the 20th and I haven’t got neither Federal or state back and people who have file after me has at least gotten one or the other.
Same here.. I filed on the 20th and my brother filed on the 26th.. I’ve received nothing.. he got his back on the 2nd… 🙁
What state. That is bull and I am not worried about Federal also.
We are both in MN.. My federal WMR shows “no information found”. My state shows “Received”. My brother got BOTH his federal and state back in less then a week and his refund was close to mine.
That is very weird. I can see it online both of them . I am in OK and both state and federal says received but not approved. Like the 20th was a bad day to file I suppose
I guess. Its just frustrating that others filed after us but already have it. In the past it has usually been 10 days or less. I’m now at 16 days and I have no information on WMR. It makes me worried of course!
Could be the amount of refund
I keep reading and hearing if it’s a big refund it will be here on the 12th
Smh
I was question to that also. But it wouldn’t justify filing on the 20th and I haven’t gotten state or federal. My state wasn’t even big bit still nothing
Exactly Ashlei! My federal was less then 5k and state was less then 2k. My brothers was 4k and 1k and he got it back in 6 days. Pretty crappy for me!
I hope tomorrow we get a deposit tomorrow.
I hope so too! It would help so many people out!
Its very frustrating that we should have at least gotten state back filing on the 20th. And I’ve called both state tax commission and IRS and was advised I have to wait the 21 days before they can look into it.
the WMR isn’t working, that post I copied from that MSN page said, it wasn’t available neither, I bet the BIG pay out for the 5th isn’t coming, they are BROKE and cant pay us, but if we owed them, I bet they wouldn’t give to shits in a hand basket if we had a GLITCH going on in our personal life’s, where we couldn’t pay them , I had to deal with them for 10 years all the penalties ad interest I paid them, I could probably give half of us are own refunds , just pisses me to no end!
sorry had to Rant!
Haha! I like rants! And you are totally correct. They will take our money without any “glitches” happening but as soon as refunds are supposed to go out there is always a huge delay or “glitch”.
you got that right…sending stupid a$$ in a minute and then even force you to make hefty payment arrangements as well lol
Kunal have you got yours yet. When was it that you filed
Jan 22nd lol
it was on ABC news this morning, and I seen this on MSN news on the web this morning when I turned my PC on at work, I called my credit union and there’s nothing showing a deposit for tomorrow, I’m in Michigan and was accepted on the 19th, I wouldn’t put something I didn’t see on here to upset anyone, I need my refund just as bad as anyone else, I’m PISSED, in the 30 yrs this has never happen to me or anyone I know for that matter, hope this crap that gets taken care of soon,
You know I read that too. And I was in question of it was still down as of today on WMR. I never had to go through this to not have state nor federal and its been two weeks. Like what the hell. And then people after me who have filed have gotten one or the other
same here
Well that sucks. I got accepted on the 26th…and nothin!
There making everybody wait at least 2weeks from the 19th this year
That’s not entirely true.. My brother only had to wait 6 days! And his refund from federal was $4k and state was $1k.
Well I filed the 20th so two weeks add tomorrow the 5th so I hope to see a happy bank account with federal and state.
Did you get your refund
well I’m really Sh**ing here, my friend whose taxes I did just Saturday, checked her wrm today and her refund is coming the 8th , I thought that system was done, damn IRS lie more then a rug.
In what state this happened because I did my taxes on the 18 of January and they accepted it on the 20th and Still haven’t received my tax return yet
I saw this when I went to the IRS website this morning…..this is everywhere but only really affects those filing after Tuesday…..it said if you’ve already been accepted that you should still receive your refund within 21 days
But why so many people still haven’t received there returns yet I always get mine before the 21 days and this year is a hassle
I am in sc and same. Filed 16th accepted 19th and nothing.
I called and talked to the IRS about 2 hours ago because I Filed and was accepted on February 15th.. I am without bars but still have tax topic 152 and my refund amount. The lady said officially they did accept them before the 19th, but she said no one can count their taxes from when they were accepted unless it was the 19th or after… She said for me and other who filed before the 19th that your 21st day officially is Feb 9th… Just wanted to let everyone know…. She said some returns have been processed but that was chosen in their testing phase
I think they are really pushing the 21 days this yr. I filed and accepted 1/19/16 and still no money, no DDD, no 2nd bar. Can’t blame them…do they earn interest daily on their bank balance just like we do? I’d hold out too if that’s the case.
dont give them any ideas lol
Exact same here accepted on the 19th and haven’t received any federal
I filed on the 19th was accepted on the 19th.. still a sitting duck. “Let’s go!!! duck..duckk.. goose?”
I filed on the 15th, too. Accepted on the 19th – still nothing.
I filed the same day as you keep me updated and I will do the same for u…. Stuck on the first bar.
Nothing as of yet here
Ok! Yeah same for me! Thanks alot!!
you are very welcome
Me neither. Guess we didn’t make the 2/5/16 DDD – ugh. Today is 18 days since fed accepted me 19th, with no deposits on sunday…1 more hope for tomorrow but at this point now I’d be happy for their 21 day guarantee which is Monday.
my 21 days is up next Friday
CHECK THIS OUT:
the issue with late refunds this year. The IRS announced budget cuts this year, so there are less people working to get the refunds out, in addition to the new fraud measures implemented this year, refunds are expected on average to take about one week longer than last year. There is an insanely amount of people requesting transcripts as well, which is only bogging down the already understaffed IRS, because people falsely believe that if they can order a transcript it is an indication of refund approval. Many people are getting their deposits ahead of seeing an approval bar or a DDD, because the IRS is trying to get the refunds out in a timely manner but they are understaffed to update.
i read about them been understaffed and stuff
They must have fired ppl on the 21st when mine went through and hired some a few days later…because its crazy how others have been picked up when they filed after…using the exact same forms…smh ugh
Was told yesterday they disburse on weds + FRI’s. So hoping those of us who should’ve gotten DD today will get it on weds! Don’t wanna go thru another week of obsessively checking my bank, WMR, + sbbt!
Today is day 19 for me too ; ( still says being processed according to Jackson Hewitt where I filed mine there has been no errors or rejected return they claim mine was approved.. almost 21 days for me too.. what I don’t understand is how others who filed after me have received checks today…. well okay then..
My sister seems to be convinced they deposit over night on Fridays (from past years experience) my memory’s not that good lol – so I’m hoping to wake up tomorrow and see it too! Not hopeful however.
Also…last year fed accepted me on 2/4/15, my DDD was 2/19/15. Exact same details and filing status/deduction, etc as this yr. But was paid in 15 days. AND the WMR bars never changed until after my money was in the account – so I def don’t sweat that part this yr. Fyi all 😉
i am just gonna read this post for updates on what is going on with you guys..once i dont see anything by the 12th, then some calls will be made
Are you able to order your return transcript? Is so, those that haven’t been before but we able to this morning are receiving a DDD of 2/10. Not on WMR but when they call in. My bar hasn’t moved, but I was able to order transcripts, but I’m not calling…. I’ll take their word for it.
That’s what I’ve been doing! Got more info from here than from any IRS website!
Any updates yet just. For my ddd
Mines saying the same thing what does that means
I am also ugh hope we see some movement soon filed 1/20 acc 1/20 no ddd
Filed 22nd..accepted n processing..nothing yet
My gogot accepted in the 23rd now his saying no information found
please tell me u r kidding
Ieant to say my dad g?t accepted on the 23rd now his saying no information found me and my got accepted on the 12th my date is bye the 3rd my sister still being processed and my mom filed 3 days after us and her date is the 3rd to idk what’s going on with their stuff
if it says can’t find any info that means your return has probably been adjusted and your now your entering an incorrect refund amount.
When did you file? Any updates?
Any updates?
Nope not at all.you?
Nothing. Just checked this morning and it’s still on the first bar.
Still nothing . This sucks. A friend of mine did he’s last week and got his today! He told me that some were being flagged for the healthcare, but I had healthcare plus we basically used the same forms so I’m not sure. I thought maybe it was the software…because only 2% of TTO customers received theirs as of yesterday. He used tax slayer…And most tax companies do as well. Idk. I just feel if mine are going to be delayed…update the WMR site and let me know, because I was expecting them for Friday.
Kimberly when did you file
I efiled on the 21st
I did to have you heard anything
No…still at received on the site…and that bank they someone posted doesnt bring up an account which means they haven’t got to me yet. Im giving up if it doesnt hit Friday, and when it does come I will have a nice suprise….cos this tax check is making me go crazy. ha
After Friday thats it too
any updates yet Kunal?
i havent checked yet but with all the rants and stuff that I am seeing, i think I will just limit my loggin on to IRS to night time lol
Right…lol
Well tomorrow is the big day….fingers crossed for everyone…especially since the IRS updated the site today to say they are back in business….
Lol I know right
No updates yet on this side…what about you Sarria?
No update. I hope our money be in our account in the morning
Me too
Have u called the 800 number
What 800 number? Is it helpful? I have given up looking as of yesterday…but I had to check this morning just to see if it magically hit lol. But no…no 800 #, pls share

No. I checked too many times, now im booted off until tmrw.
Yeah it does that lol
Same here. They booted me off lol. Filed and accepted on Jan 23…and no movement on the wmr… last year I had dd refund within 11 days
AnY updates
So annoyed, boyfriend and I both filed 1/20 and 1/21 and NOTHING, he got his state already which is WEIRD!! sites haven’t updated either 🙁 so annoying.
got state as well!
Yes as of today sunday its saying that before that I as on one bar for two weeks
i filed on the 11th, accepted on the 12th, as of Saturday (1-30) night i got this… before i was stuck on return recieved… last year i had my money by the 29th (based on the order date for my computer components) and in the past always had my refund in my account by the end of January… this is the longest i’ve waited and my return is very simple as it has been every year before
the big purchase i have planned this year has a rebate offer that expires soon so i’m just a tad annoyed by this delay
Hey james i filed on the 12th accepted on the 14th and still being processed as of this morning my 21 days is tomorrow have u heard anything on yours
i checked around a half an hour ago and it went to approved with a deposit date of the 5th
What day did you file? I filed and was accepted on the 28th per the refund cycle it says I would get deposit on the 5th but I’m still stuck on first bar
i filed on the 11th as i said in my original comment this is the longest i’ve waited to be approved… in the past it’s never taken more than a week from when the IRS started processing returns and my return is just as stupid simple as it always has been
sh*t me too..i dont do too many transactions and dont do all that intricate financial stuff!
https://www.irs.gov/uac/Newsroom/IRS-Statement-on-Experiencing-Systems-Outage
Wow☹️
Sighing
This shouldn’t effect those of us who have already filed and been accepted, at least I hope not.
I hope to God not
Me too. My state says it will be in there today (2-4-16)…. But still on first bar!!!!
have you got your refund yet? I filed on the 27th and accepted on the 28th but still no DD
Man mine is still in processing hope mines for the 5th that will be 22 days since i was accepted it usually hits my account in 10 days definitely stressing me out
like i said, i am not filing early anymore..screw this sh**t
Hope you get yours soon!
WMR still doesn’t say refund sent but i got my money in my account today and… refund spent
oh thats great!!!
Did your wmr ever update past return received?
WMR still doesn’t say refund sent but i got my money in my account today and… refund spent
I did as well
Mine was accepted January 22 and hasn’t changed since. According to the direct deposit schedule my tax return should be deposited February 5. Could I get my return that day even though my status on the where’s my refund site still says they accepted it and is processing it.
ANY updates
No update on mine. But my mother filed here’s the 25th and got her approval and ddd for February 8.
Where my refund website just changed. Got my ddd Feb 10
Me too and I did mine at the tax shop and I called them to see if it was a problem and they said it was accepted that the system just was not updating like it should
https://www.irs.gov/uac/Newsroom/IRS-Statement-on-Experiencing-Systems-Outage
im still stuck on that message my tax return was accepted jan 19th this sucks. i still have not gotten mine yet
im still stuck on that one. multiple calls and still no idea what they are investigating or researching. i filed jan19th this sucks longest wait ever. this has never happened to me before
I filed on the 11th accepted on the 13th and still being processed
Anybody else filed thru tax slayer?
i filed through tax slayer. whats wrong
I did
Im still being processed filed the same as u and only one bar on the site no date yet
I filed on the 15th accepted on the 13 and still being processed! A friend of mine file on the 19th accepted on the 19th and got his refund the 29th.
My dad checked his and it said no information can be found it didn’t say that yesterday
Well its good to know im not thr only one getting thst message…but i worry because none of us has still received our refunds..i tjink we should all just keep checking our accounts..Also tjis question is really IMPORTANT TO ME so plz hekp me. For those of u getting the messahe we have no informstion available plz allow 4 weeks from when u mailef ur return”
We all know we didnt mail our returns so hrre is the question…would u look on that message and see if it gives u a phone no and ext no to call? It did me and see if it gave u a ref code of 9001.
This information will b at the bottom of that screen under that masg..
Its important because if u all got that too tjen we havd no need to worry and we just need to keep checking our accounts…if my refund isnt in my bsnk by 7am est time then im calling that no and finding out WTH is going on
For thosr of u getting that message like me go to sbtpg.com cluck on taxpayers scroll to step 2 and put in your info tjis bank will tell u whether or not they received ur refund from the irs….if they did it will give u a date…in my case they havent receibed it…but more than likely its because its a weekend and the bank is clised…i wpuld say that if this is just a glitch then we will get our funds on tjr 3rd…if u have bars and it says by the 3rd then u will get it on wed the 3rd
I am praying really hard that this is just a computet glitch ….
Mine is saying I put the wrong information and I know I didn’t should I be concerned
Not really from what I heard..maybe it’s wrong ssn or something check with your tax preparer
I looked on my tax info everything is right according to the paperwork I have
Efile or a tax preparer? Usually with e file it will let you know if something is wrong..or maybe it’s just irs messing up
I did mine with a tax preparer
Yeah..call em quick
UPDATE ; FOR those of u getting that msg about no info found check fir a ref code….mine is 9001 it sayd that i tried to access my refund status with a secondary taxpayer identification number (TIN) but i dudnt so im not sure if i need call irs or not. Because i havrnt got my refund but to b on safe side im calling tjrm at 7am in morning
My dad said his say no information found either it stared saying that today he used a pin number to file his taxes so idk he gonna call tomorrow
I serioysly brlieve tje WMR site is messed up
I filed on the 4th and was accepted on the 19th, but I only have one bar and it’s still saying processing.
Any updates yet
Ask your dad if there is a reference code at the boytom. If there is ask him what it is and i can look it up and tell him what it says
Ok
He say no it just saying no information could be found
I filed my taxes 1/21 and was accepted on the same day.My status is still processing no DDD as of yet
Why does it say wmr unavailable? And its say to try again later
the page is unavailable Sundays from.like 1am to 5am I think those are the hour’s.not forsure hour’s
Filed for a friend and was accepted on Jan 23 but she only has one bar (tax return accepted bar) best of luck to everyone as I know how difficult it is waiting for money. I remember last year I had my return dd within 11 days and my bf had his paper check in the mailbox within 16 days both used turbo tax. Hopefully this year goes as quickly
Any updates
Nope still on first bar.. how about you ?
None at all
Damn IRS is killing me lol when ya know you got money coming your way it’s impossible to be patient lol
You are so right about that
I know I am not filing early next year
Lol same
Nothing at all. It seems like most people are going to wait the 21 days before they see any movement. Not like last yeAR when the entire was received within 14 days
Nothing new…. ):
Not a damn thing…. still says processing which who knows if that’s true or not. How about you?
Has anyone actually received their money yet?
I filed on the 15 th got accepted the 20th and still stuck on 1 bar. I’m wondering if the ppl that got there’s early are the ones who have he lower amount refunds ?
Still no date yet
Filled on the 19th…accepted the same day around 4pm EST. Approved on the 29th for DD on the 3rd.
Okay its official..time to panic a little people…cant order return transcript yet and bar aint moving!
this is getting ridiculous what is going on
Hey did anyone get there state yet
I filed on the 13th and was accepted on the 14th and Im still stuck on the first bar. No DDD and no updates. Do you think I will get a deposit without WMR update?
Can anybody tell me what that means. I had the bar for 2 weeks and now it says the same thing refund is still being processed and a date will be provided when available? Can someone tell me what that mean. I have been told so much different stuff
i guess give it time till end of the week
means its being processed. until the irs sends you a letter, you get a call from your tax preparer, or an email from the tax software you used if you filed yourself, dont worry. everything is taking a long long time. most refunds are going through additional verifications and checks this year. see my earlier post for a number u can call 2 get some answers.
So I did what you said and spoke to someone. They said I had to verify my identity which is why I had the message I had. They cleared everything and said the refund will process within 9 weeks and I’m assuming it’s taking that long just because they are already delayed and behind.
I know mine too filed on the 19th got accepted on 20th and still says return processing.
This year it’s taking too long I always get it within 2 weeks or less of filling. Today marks, 2 weeks and still only 1 bar.
yes it is taking longer than it suppose to..something that has to do with the number of people handling the workload and stuff
This year it’s taking too long I always get it within 2 weeks or less of filling. Today marks, 2 weeks and still only 1 bar.
I filed my taxes on Jan 25th, and got a text message that same night, stating that my federal return has been accepted by the IRS. According to the 2016 Refund Schedule, I’m supposed to have my refund by Feb 5th, but the status on my WMR app hasn’t changed at all. Still on the first bar. Any advice?
just hang tight. according to the schedule you should get DD by Feb 5. They usually update the system at the end of the day and DD goes in your account around midnight or so
You got urs?
Well i was accepted on the 14th so mine was suppose to hit the 29th then they switched it to no later than the 5th and its the fourth and no update and i called irs the 22nd day and they wont tell me nothin till eb 9nth at the earliest i always get mine in 10 days now im approaching a month and i still dont know when ill get it and its a simple refund that refund chart on here means nothing im so stressed over this
The same for me as well. Maybe we’ll get it as planned 2/5.
When did you file
1/25
I applied on 1/21 accepted the same day hopefully I will get mines on Friday crossed fingers
me too. Jan 22 here
I filed on 1/19… Checked this a.m still on the first bar :/
EVERYONE PLZ LISTEN AND DO THIS BEFORE U START PANICKING…FOLLOW THESE STEPS…
1.go to sbtpg.com – this is tje bank the irs uses to dep our refunds and then send them to ud
2.click on for taxpayers
3.go to step 2 on the site
4.put in ur social filing status and refund amt.
If it lets u log in it will say they have not receivef your refund yet BUT if u cany log in It mrans the irs has not finishrd processing u.
It is my understanding that the irs sends everyones name who is getting a refund to this bank so the bank can open an account for eaxh of us for tjem to send the money to…tje bank will not open an account unless we are due a refund..
Also if u can log into sbtpg website at the very bottom of ur page it will give u the expected amount amd when they received it if it was received…
It took bunch of researcH but i hope this helps
I did this it says my expected amount but says the irs still hasnt sent it.
I was able to log in and it even has customer id for me…it says irs hasnt sent anything to them
same here
Same here
Thank you for this information. It was very helpful. It allowed me to log in, but they haven’t received anything yet. Hoping something processes soon 😀
I log on the santa Barbara bank site it have me my expected refund but still says they have not received any money yet. Also the calender says if you filed before the 19th or on the 19th refund should be 1/29 thru 2/5 and if you filed the 19 thru the 2929th refund date should be 2/5
Ok guys I have details…of your WMR bars are gone here is what you can do. Call 800 829 0582 opt 1 for English. Ext 652 approx wait time 7- 10 mins. I spoke with them. They gave me the script speech. Tell them that ext 652 was on your WMR and the 800 number. That will allow them to review your account. 21 days for everyone this yr is from the 19th even if u filed early…doesn’t matter. They will put u on hold…review your case…then let you know what is going on and when u should set DDD.
so for someone like me that filed on the 22nd, i should just wait till like next week or what would u suggest?
Wait til next week. count 21 days from the day you got accepted in your case. you filed on the 22nd. so whenever you got your confirmation….21 days from that date.
Why does the refund chart say if you filed between January 18-29 you’ll get your Direct Deposit Feb 5th
refund chart is an estimate. not a guarantee. they base it off of how the IRS cycles
oh i only have one bar
that means they havent gotten to it yet. when u lose your bar, then they are working on your return. returns this yr are going thru a 2wk cycle.
Oh ok thank you…When did you file? Had this been your experience?
I filed 1/12/16…accepted 1/13/16. Yes everything i have posted has been through personal experience.
What does 2 week cycle mean?
Does the 21 days include the weekend
example: I filed 1/12/16…accepted 1/13/16…IRS opened 1/19/16….21 days is 2/9/16….my DDD is 2/8/16!!
Oh okay cool..I guess next week then
I was accepted on the 19th and my refund is suppose to be deposited on Feb 3, I also claimed my children.
My status changed to this at some point this evening. I filed on 01/13/16 and was accepted on 01/14/16. So is the 21 days just for those of us that have the status bars gone now or supposed to be everyone? I know there are a lot of people that have already received their refunds and they filed after the date so just curious. I don’t usually have an issue with mine, but I’m guessing that’s not the case this year. 🙁
But how is 21 days for everyone possible even for early filers when some early filers have gotten there money already.
Yes…large refunds this year are being completely verified. IRS opened on the 19th so techinically no one’s was processed til the 19th.
Guys just be patient. This yr is prepping us for what is next. We can thank the frauds and thieves for this hell!! But if call the number and do exactly as I said I will get some info. Do tell them your bars are gone and that there 800 number plus the ext was on your WMR. They will.only look of u have a code or.ext. only telling u wht I know cuz I just called myself.
800 829 0582 ext 652
I CALLED THE NUMBER SHE SAID THEY GOT MINES ON 21ST BUT STILL PROCESSING BUT MY TAX OFFICE SAID IT WAS ACCEPTED ON 19TH SO I DONT KNOW WHAT TO THINK ABOUT THAT SHOULD COUNT FROM THE 19TH OR 21ST AND I LOGIN INTO THE IRS BANK AND SAID MY REFUND HAS NOT MADE IT TO THEM
Is lt time to Panic, mine still hasn’t moved, one bar and code 152? has anyone gotten a refund yet? accepted on the 19th nothing has changed code and all
Dont panic. This is how things are going to be from here on out. Expect your refund in 21 days….period!! U still have one bar so that means they have it. Count 21 days from the date the IRS excepted it. Everything has changed so much. If your refund is more than $1000 except a delay. if your address is different from last year…except a delay. Things are just different now and will be from here on out
Wel seems that if we are able to log in to the sbtpg website that we should expect our refunds anytime…cause if we werent approved i dont believe the bank would open an account for our mobey to go to…
The WMR site is useless this yr…i am luke mizunderstood beauty i had to call but they woyldnt tell me anything…i had the 800 no and an ext. And the lady kept telling me check site..but i kept telling her it woyldnt let me….that it kept saying no info on me …so i gave up and hung up…
call back… you have to do it the way i posted…exactly. they have to type the code or ext in so that they arent flagged for looking at your return for no reason. The ext will get in you and they can look for you
Anybody else been accepted on the 19th and still see no approval?
yes…lots of people. this year is going to be different. if you are expecting a refund of $1000 or more then you are going to go through a 2 wk cycle. so at least 2 wks before u get a refund this yr. you should have your refund 21 days from the date the irs accepted it since u were accepted on the 19th. when your bars leave thats good…in a way. means they are working on it finally and it will change when done. WMR tool is really pointless this yr
Mine was accepted n the 19th and it says I should expect a refund on Feb 3. My refund in well over 1000, someone stated that it affects the refund if accepted after 11am on the 19th.
That’s great for you and your refund was more $1000?
Yes I was accepted on the 19th got my state on Jan 25th no federal yet I’m from Maryland .
Me toooooooo. Md here..state showed up very fast
yes, I was accepted on the 19th, got my state, but no fed!! -Missouri
I WAS ACCEPTED ON 19TH STILL ON THE FIRST BAR NEVER TAKES MINES MORE THAN 2 WKS
Me to filed and accepted on 20 still on first bar tomorrow will be fourteen days this doesn’t make sense we was suppose to be in the bunch on the 29 no later than the 3. Hopefully Friday the fifth they have some coming out tomorrow the 3 smh damn irs system is really messed up
Got MY DDD filed on the 11 accepted the 12th second bar 29th and got my r we fund deposited at 5 pm! I’m going shopping
Mine was 1100 with no delay… dont believe everything you read folks
your refund was 1100. thats why it came so fast. mine is 9921 and its taking much longer. so believe what u read!! And the things I post are facts…not thoughts or assumptions!!
I filed on 21st , accepted on 22nd..and I’ am on one bar still. Has anyone with same date range have this same problem?
Yes me
I filled the same day, and i’m on only 1 bar. I check with HRB and they said 1/12/16.
Oh really?? wow! So…..i took the advice of others and called IRS..gave them an Ext ..she looked into my account and said there was nothing wrong, there is alot of traffic, delays but still processing and should wait to be approved. She advised, as long as we do not see a “Code” or if she does not see one either, than we will receive our monies soon. 🙁
Im out of California…I usually always receive my return by the 3rd if i file early or the 10th if i file on or after Jan 29th.
We usually have ours back about the first week of Feb. This is the first year I did my own taxes and was worried I might have made a mistake. I don’t have any codes so I’m guessing everything is good.
Did she say what code?
No she didn’t. She seemed as if she was trying to hold back on to much info being given.
Thats nice to know .. I have heard of some people not getting updates on WMR and got the refund back. Fingers crossed we will get them Friday.
Any update?
Filed and accepted on the 21 st
Still one bar
I’ve been checking my wmr so much that it will not give me any information and says to try back tomorrow. Anyone else ever received this message?
Yes i did.
Yes it does that for everyone. I think u can only check it 5 times per day.
it only updates once a day. so best tim to check is in the morning or late at night.
Thanks a lot! I’ll check in the morning.
they only update once a day from 3am to 6am no need to check more then once a day
yes a few times, guess it’s people like us messing up the WMR? LOL’ IDC I need my money and need it now. :((((((((((((((
Lol exactly crossed fingers that we all get it this week!
yes TiffTiff, they have been LOL’ I went to that sptpg.com and nothing on either, it’s crazy this year, Diana hang in there sweetie, I know it’s hard seeing your child sick, I’ve been keeping her in my Thoughts and Prayers, I don’t know you, but if I had money I sure would help you, it will be here soon, the good Lord will help you through this difficult time.
God Bless you!
Hope we all get ours soon
Thanks so much. I’m so anxious as I know you all are. Based on the refund schedule I should get a direct deposit on the fifth but my meter hadn’t moved past refund accepted.
I really hope the irs gets it together before thursday because my 22 yr old daughter will b out of some of the medications she needs to keep her liver going and keep her alive…ins doesnt cover this med and this refund is the only way we have to pay for it…;(
I dont know if anyone from irs monitirs this site but if they do i hope they see this…some peopkes lives depend on their refunds…..i need my money to pay fir her medicines and keep her alive…she isnt gonna b here much longer but shr has a3 mo old baby girl and im trying to give her all the time i can wuth her and i value the time i have with het…
Irs pkz get on the ball…
Your in my prayers. Everyone is upset about their money.
When u go to that tpg does it say ur refund status at the bottom
No. it just tells u when they receive it
Does this mean they sent it
Not sure u didnt show full screem…scroll to the right it tells the date wgen they received it
Has anyone been updated yet on the sbtpg website? Just wonderibg. Guess gonna have to call irs again tomorrow ;( my daughters life rides on this refund ;( its a shame
I’m praying u receive urs asap
Update I have money just waiting on state and my dad call IRS they said that the app and website are messed up because everybody getting on there and keep checking every 5 seconds so now y’all might have to call to get updates or keep checking your card or if y’all have text or email alerts to y’all prepaid or bank account just keep checking because mines still saying approved and I have my money
Asia would u do me a favor and go to sbtpg.com go to taxpaers go to step 2 and log in and send a pic of what it shhows. Bevause our money goes to thid bank before ours and most of us are not seeing a dep at that bank yet…would b very thankful
Hey the log in doesn’t pop up I think its doing what the app and website doing
Is this website for everyone in the US??
We are wanting to know this as well. Does the Santa Barbra tax site work for Indiana? We filed on the 24th was accepted within an hour for federal and state. We’re getting my state direct deposited on the 4th. But my federal is still stuck on the first bar and the 800 number says the same thing. Really hoping it hits our card on Friday.
https://www.irs.gov/uac/Newsroom/IRS-Statement-on-Experiencing-Systems-Outage
Was ur refund a substantial amt?
I got my whole refund just waiting on my state IDL why its taking a long time imma call and see what they say
Are u from Pa??This is crazy lol Im just glad Im not the only one
I’m from Maryland
Whhhhaatttt md here
Anyone from PA??
I filed and was accepted same day on Jan 24th so will I get my DD on Tue 5th of Feb? My status bar hasn’t changed :/ still on the first one.
May I ask of your refund is more th and $2000? Ppl with lower amts r getting thru. Mine is almost 10,000…so ima waiting like many of us. Bars are not changing. WMR has crashed and is no help this yr. See my prior post for a number to call for help and instructions.
Yeah mine is over 4,000 my bar has not moved as well. Its getting aggravating
My bars just disappeared this morning what does that mean
Plz see my prior post for explanation and a number to call for help.
Thanks
what is going on with new york federal returns i know a lot of people who was excepted on the 11th and hasn’t got anything yet
I cnt with y’all. Plz read thru the post before posting your question. 9 times out of 10 the answer is already in the post. I stress to u that there are only a few fast refunds this yr. If you are expecting a large refund like me…almost 10,000…then be patient and expect to wait….simple. We all need the money. But we have already crashed the WMR site so what next?. The money is coming just not fast like before. I’m getting almost 10,000 back so yes I’m angry and want my money too but what can we do. 2 week cycle for refunds with thousands of dollars….week 1 alerts…identity…address changes..etc. If something gets flagged they will send u a letter. Week 2 makes sure everything cleared and if so then u will get your money. That info comes directly from the IRS as I spoke with them yesterday. I’ve tried to help u guys but if u dnt use the 800number and do exactly what I said then u won’t get any info. Good luck guys. Our money is coming. By end of week and into next week we will be rolling in the dough….lol! And FYI…screw the refund schedule. That’s not gonna help u this yr!!
MizUndaStood_Beauty, do I HAVE to call the IRS for everything to be cleared, if my bars disappeared? Or is that just a suggestion to figure out what the problem is? I was going to wait until tomorrow to see if it went in my account, but if I need to call I can. If my bars disappeared does that mean that it’s been flagged for some reason? I filed and was accepted on the 14th of January. I did check the sbtpg website and it just says they haven’t received my funds from the IRS yet. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. THanks:D
U dont have to call. U can call just to put yourself at ease and know what is going on. U could have been flagged and not got a letter yet. U just never know.
I’m still on the first bar I got approved January 26th
filed Jan 22 accepted the same day. nothing yet but IRS says if filed before Jan 29 u will DD by Feb 5 so let’s hope it hits by the end of the week
I filed on the 21st and still no date
Hey do anybody know how long state takes to process
some people are saying it takes 14 to the 21 days as specified by IRS
It took 7 days but they had to reprocess mines but its ready to be 10 days now
ok the irs does not want you to call them until after the 21st day that you were accepted. For people who were accepted b4 the 19th that date starts the 19th. Do not give a mind to ugly here cause that person is full of bad info. I keep reading the posts. The reason for most of the people here that has not gotten a DDD is cause in the past you reported your info stolen or lost or something. Maybe they are not sure you were honest or maybe there just not sure if that crook is still trying to use it. The amount of your refund if everything else is ok means nothing. Mine was 7000 and I got mine the 29th and filed the 18th accepted the 19th. I also changed address from last year and bank but I have never reported a problem with my taxes. Those who have not reported a problem and some that have will have the money tomorrow or Friday if they filed b4 the 19th. The bar does in fact not always get up dated check bank tomorrow and if not there on Friday. My bar never moved from bar one. Hope this helps. As far as posting here I hope you all do cause I am sure that makes people feel better as they wait. I know it seems forever but really not that long and for next year try not to count on the money so much so you are not going to get kicked out of your apt or whatever if it does take the 21 days. Cause if you do even if you get it fast its all gone on bills. Goodluck
Well I never reported anything stolen or lost
when did you get accepted?
January 14th
Veronica there is a Santa and I bet you get yours the 5th if you did direct deposit and you been a good girl. lol
1/22
Jay I think you will also get yours on the 5th if direct deposit also but cause after the 19th could be next week but should be there the 5th.
Oh ok thanx hopefully…. Where r u located Doug??
jay I am in st. louis mo ret US army but I also work cause I had some kids with a young mail order bride from the phil. lol
St. Louis
I hope your right Doug been hearing so many discouraging messeages for the past few days
I have found that when you file really early, you will most of the time wait longer than normal for your money. So i always wait till feb 1st or after to file and i always get it within a week to 2 weeks. I also have clients taxes i do and its the same for them as i tell them to wait. Im guessing its probably cause they got so many people filing early thinking they get their money faster or they have not work all the bugs out yet.
I filled on 1/26 excepted on the same day.. still processing?? as per the IRS chart I should get mine Friday 2/5 DD
does anyone know if they will do a deposit w/o a DDD? its not showing under review same topic 152 todays the 14th day I filed the 18th accepted the 19th, I’m just wondering if maybe I could get mine Friday, I know next year I’m not doing mine on opening day, I will wait a few weeks, this is crazy anyone accepted on the 19th have a DDD yet?
This is very much so crazy I think we would all feel better if we knew wth was going rather than all the naysayers…. I did mine 22nd accepted same day and still nothing
I filed and was accepted on the 19th still no ddd. My refund is 5k so I would say the amount MAY have something to do with it. My two coworkers filed the 19th as well, one who is getting a higher refund like mine hasn’t gotten anything or ddd. The other whose refund was around $800 got hers on the 29th.
Me tooo. I will wait for a while..
Efiled with h&rblock January 22 got an email the same day saying my state and federal was accepted …nothing yet and I’m still at one bar!
just called irs they said even if we filed early they didn’t start processing until the 19th and we have to wait up until February 9th if still no money then maybe they can look up your status….. This is bs……..we work hard for our money all year long and rely on our refunds, people like myself I have 4 children and really need my refund.smh……irs….plz get it together….quick to take our taxes but we can’t get our returns when we really need it
..
What area are u in??
Ny
Have u tried that bank that they mentioned below??
I don’t think that bank is used in ny
Yeah in Pa either
Go to sbtpg.com that is the irs bank…its for the whole US …this is where our tefunds go first then the bank sends oyr money yo us..FOLLOW THESE STEPS EXACTLY AND IF U CAN LOG IN THEM THE IRS WILL B DEP UR REFUND SOON…
1. sbtpg.com
2 go to taxpayrrs
3 go to step 2
4 enter info it will tell u if they got u r refund
If u cant log in then u are not processed yey
Who told you to have 4 kids when you can’ afford to provide decent lives for them without a once a year refund??? So what do you do the other 11 months out of the year? You need to either A) Get off your ass and work a second job or B) close your legs until you can afford to take care of them
work and not a bum maybe you are
keep your negative comments to yourself
Exactly
LMAO, your a real card HUH? guess you must be mad BECAUSE US WORKING PEOPLE GET REFUNDS AND “””””WORK”””” I BET U DO NOTHING LIVE OFF YOUR GIRL AND JUST MAD YOU DONT GET A REFUND….HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA…
BUM? YEA YA ARE!!
people who judge others without knowing their situation should just leave it alone and go on with their life’s and leave all US WORKING PEOPLE ALONE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
God forgive me but that’s why people do some scamming for real
registered nurse for over 13 years never had a problem…..just with all the scams this year, unfortunately honest people like myself have to pay …..
i filed on the 19th with only one bar… hasn’t moved any i filed head of household with one dependent.. its been 2 weeks =( no date has been given just says received.. i did my return with Jackson Hewitt and they claim my refund was approved so i do not think the bar is accurate
I did receive my state on the 26th i am in INDIANA
me too, state was rcvd., I’m in MO
Any updates from people who were accepted on the 19th?
I got accepted on the 19th and I’m still on the first bar…
Unfortunately no, as if today I’m still at one bar. Fingers crossed for a approval tomorrow.
nothing checked this morning still nothing, does anyone know how far in advance they will let you know when you have a Direct Deposit Date?
If i do receive my monies late tonight or Tuesday, I will update. But as for now, I’ am on one bar….still waiting to be “Approved” for that hard working money! grrrrr
What was your filing date?
I filed around 6pm on 21st. I checked fri morn and was approved.
Is anyone from New Jersey
OMG!!!! Someone help! The IRS CLEARLY told me when I should expect my refund but I’m broke because I’m lazy and didn’t pay attention in school or go to college and now I have a shitty job that pays minimum wage so I’m going nuts about this once a year tax return so I can ball out for a month and go back to being broke for the other 11 months out of the year!!!!!!!!!!
Come on guys I have 7 1/2 kids I NEED MY MONEY NOWWWWWWWW!
lmao yall some damn bums
first of all no one is a bum on here because we work. I guess you must pay taxes which is not our fault bum
listen here, we ALL WORK or we would not get a REFUND!! some people need this money WE pay into this crap, you have NO reason to judge anyone, I see you holding a child are you claiming and getting the EARNED INCOME CREDIT??? before you start running at it, everyone on here works or there would be NO REFUND! grow-up we all want our money, I have worked over 30 years and have a good job, but that doesn’t mean I don’t want nor need my refund. SMH!!!!!!
Refund Status Results
Your tax return is still being processed.A refund date will be provided when available.
Please read the following information related to your tax situation:
Tax Topic 152, Refund Information
What does this mean?
I have the same thing. Up until yesterday I had the “Return Received” status bars then it went to this. I also went on to the Santa Barbara Tax Group website and checked and it let me log in, but they haven’t received my refund from the IRS yet. I’m not sure if I need to call the IRS or not; was just gonna wait and see if it goes in tomorrow or not. I filed and was accepted on the 14th of January so 21 days will be this Thursday, the 4th of February. I hope and pray that mine is not flagged for some stupid mess. Not “depending” on my refund but good grief I sure did have plans for it.
I filed the 14th as well but IRS starts processing returns the 19th so 21 days from that.
I got the same thing on mine after it was accepted on the 27th of January and a few days later that was on mine and the bars were gone and it has not changed since.
I got accepted on the 19th of Jan…. still on the acceptance bar. hopefully, maybe tomorrow….

How do you know if you got flagged? Do they send a letter or can you find that out by checking “Where’s my refund?’ I filed on the 21st with TT and accepted within a few hours on the 21st and my bar has not moved. I called the IRS and spoke with someone this morning and was informed it was still processing.
Let’s all hope we have it tomorrow

Has anyone here had to or done injured spouse? I know how long it takes , just want to see if anyone else had or has filed one..?
on IRS page its says allow 4 extra weeks for processing for injured spouse
what is sbtpg.com?
Santa Barbara tax groups
k, I filed on the 18th, rcvd email that night, that my info., was rcvd., got my state, but no fed – Missouri, can I still use that sbtpg site
I dont think so
sbtpg is thr bank the irs sends our refunds to and then the bank sends our money to us..if u cant lig in then the irs hasnt finished processing your return
So if your able to log on to the santa Barbara bank site then your return is processed?
Still no bars no info and no dd I filed on the 13 accepted but no date yet…

The WMR on the irs.gov website and on the app as of 10 minutes ago keeps saying……We are sorry Where’s My Refund is currently unavailable. Please try Where’s My Refund again later…..We filed on 1/26 and was accepted within minutes, even on the wmr site it showed accepted within minutes of e-filing through TaxAct and of ocurse like everyone else no update since…I’m sooooo confused LOL
HOPING THIS MEANS UPDATE COMING…I am having faith and praying for those who are struggling and waiting on thier money because of the need of thier child/children or loved ones medical needs I have been reading on here

TPG has not received your federal tax refund.
Your expected IRS funding date of 2/3/2016 has passed, and the IRS has delayed the processing of your tax return. Check the status of your refund by calling the IRS at 800.829.1040. If we receive your refund, it will be processed according to your original instructions.
So this is what Santa Barbara says as of this morning
Sarah u need call irs IMMEDIATELY because that just happened to me..it happened because i am one of thousands flagged to verify identity. i can about guarantee that happened to u.if so ur looking at hour pricess to verify and up to 6 more weeks before u get ur refund. ;( this sucks but ee got lazy arse theives to thank fir it.
I needed my money to help keep my daughter aluve for a while longer without her meducation she wont last a week…guess the lord has his reasons for this ;(
About to call at 7. What number did you call to verify your identity
Still no update filed on the 13 accepted but thats it any suggestions
Go to sbtpg.com cluck on for taxpayers then go to strp 2 click on it then type in ur ss refund amt and filung status if ut lets u log in then u can check on refund starus…that is irs bank it will tell u if they received ur refund ..BYT WARNING UF u get a msg thst says ur refund date has passed u need call irs IMMEDIATELY…because means something is wrong
I did no account found on sbtg so I guess I will call when they open
You only have a account when your refund is approved until then you will not have an account.
Not all preparers use that bank. Call your preparer and ask them what bank they process through.
I called additional review. They said their doing this to a lot of returns. So check back next week..
I called. They said my identity is file they are just experiencing a delay This year. They also said people are getting deposits without the wmr updating. It’s just a waiting game everyone. Also I was advised that to keep calling every time you call or check wrm it notates under your social and that there are people flagging their own account for identity concerns. So guys please everyone situation is different
I heard a delay too and website may not update with a refund jusy have to wait
Not everyone’s tax refunds are processed through Santa Barbara Bank. JH uses them and maybe other preparers. This year my preparer is using capital one bank. So the information you’re providing is helpful but does not apply to all.
Who was your tax preparer
For several years they were Jackson Hewitt but this is the first year they parted ways. They said JH was charging fees that were too high. I’ve used them since 2005
Are you familiar with Brooklyn, Ny?
Oh ok I used TT no I’m from Maryland have my state but still waiting on the federal. Is there a way to check capital on site like the other to see if there is a release
sbtpg.com just told me that the ONLY refunds they deal with is if you filed taxes with a online tax prep cpmp that charged you and you chose to have your fees come out of your tax refund…If you filed e-file and it was free with a company they don’t deal with like myself who used TaxAct then they will NOT get your refund and the IRS deposits it directly into your account you put on your return
I went thru turbo tax
Did you choose to have your fees taken out of your refund?
I believe so my friend did my taxes for me using turbo tax
Ms Diana are you saying if you are able to log into this system that the refund is being processed and if you are not there is something wrong with the return?
Not necessarily depends who u usef for doing ur taxes this bank uses civusta turbo tax h and r blick not sure who else
Not necessarily depends who u usef for doing ur taxes this bank uses civusta turbo tax h and r blick not sure who else
I filed on Jan 22 using TT, I was accepted within a hour. Im still waiting on my refund. I did my husband on Jan 18th he got his today. My mom filed on Jan 23 and got hers today. I dont get how their jumping around and why mine has yet to been approved. I’m in Texas and we dont pay state tax I just dont undersand.
Filed the 29th @ 10 pm, accepted same night. Got my DDD date today which is the 5th. my refund was 6000+. I didn’t experience delays due to a big refund.
That gives me hope my refund is several thousands and someone was on here yesterday saying if your refund is over $1000 you have to wait 21 days
Mine is bigger than that, and I filed on 1/19
whomever came up with chart for this tax season needs to rectify it..ijs
I know. I’m still on one bar
Received my direct deposit date this morning, for Feb.5th. I filed the 21st.
Was wondering if you had bars that disappeared or anything
No I didn’t.
I filed on the 21 too! nothing yet
Really?? What the heck is going on.and to be honest..I don’t even trust the date, until that $$ is in my account.
i m losing trust in it too
Me either filed on the 21 accepted 22 and still on first bar
Any updates yet?
filed on 22nd
That’s crazy you haven’t seen anything yet either….unless they’re busy going to issue you a deposit without updating system?… idk
i know it is lol…i am hoping thats the case..
Kunal does WMR show your return has been received?
Mine was filed on the 20th and accepted the same day and I checked my WMR on the 22nd, 23rd and 24th and it said it was received. I checked it again on the 25th and it said no information found!! 🙁 Still waiting.
mine just says received and processing…supposedly if yours is saying no information found, then IRS is working on it.
I hope that’s the case and it just deposits tomorrow. It still shows up with no info found. So frustrating. Today marks 16 days for me which is horrible compared to the usual 10 or less in previous years. Each year tax refunds get even more screwed up. Uggh!
i dont know if i should even call to inquire
if u call them let me know what they said
still processing was what i was told..the guy sounded relaxed and chilled
The bar can say pocessed and u can get it friday wiyb it sayimg it
Yes what i read it can be this eay
I filed on the 22nd as well and nothing. My coworker filed on the 27th and got her ddd this morning for the 5th. Smh.
Sighing
Ugh, I filed on the 22nd too and nothing. Just a notice stating my return has been received and it’s processing and that I should receive cold hard cash within three weeks.
It probably won’t even be cold when I get it; more like room temperature and soft as a decaying peach.
I’m going to cry now and ponder my mortality.
I was accepted on the 19th still NO Date, I watched the news this morning, the IRS isn’t taking any E-Filers right now, they are having trouble, but should not have anything to do with the ones who have already E-filed, I’m really getting upset, I assume the WMR isn’t updating as well, so who knows hopefully tomorrow the 5th.
Still nothing? Want to start a revolution with me? I think that may be the next logical step at this juncture.
I’m in!
I knew I could count on you Rachel.
Um…Rachel…[nervously reaches into his pocket for a ring pop…because most dudes just happen to be carrying a ring pop] I um…I know we just met but I feel like we have reached the level and um…will you…ahh…um…will you marry me or something?
[runs behind the nearest structure and embarrassingly peeks at Rachel as he tries to determine whether his question will receive a ‘yes’ or ‘no’ based off of Rachel’s facial expression]
Or not…maybe we can just be platonic friends and I can pretend I support you dating others but cry in secret as I ponder my mortality…
[wonders if he just thought the honest response he just gave or if he actually said it in which case he plans on joining a local circus in Cambodia where he will master the art of juggling…with two balls but not three because that would take a certain level of talent Shaune is void of]
I love you!!!!!!!
[nervously laughs in goofy fashion earning a punch to the jaw and cheekbone from anyone willing to pop him right smack in his face]
Haha
Filed and accepted the 211st still on first bar
Filed and accepted on the 21st still on the first bar
Really annoyed right now
Any updates Theresa?
No nothing yet
Filed and accepted on the 20th… The WMR showed one bar for like 3 days then it showed “no information found” Still haven’t received a deposit and the WMR still says “no information found”. Hopefully it just deposits tomorrow.
I applied on the 20th accepted on the 21st.
Still on the first bar for the Federal.
State return required additional processing. (Annoyed)
I’ve had the same job for years, used the same legit childcare provider. My state is usually higher than it was this year so I’m really baffaled as to why I was flagged. Called the state yesterday the rep said, as far as she sees there is nothing wrong or additional docs needed so idk what’s the hold up.
Has anyone got their Refund yet I file my taxes 19 .It still say process and it’s now February 3rd . what is the hold up. Why have I got my refund yet. Last year it only take 7 days and it alway take 7 day sicne I been doing my taxes.
Same here filed on the 21 @approve the 22 no movement on bar but [email protected] block said feb 12 and last year got early at end of jan but it said u cam get deposted sooner and nit kniw a day on the refund bar
TT shows 12th
Filed and accepted on the 22nd. Still nothing.
Called IRS AND got the same message, STILL processing
I called twice yesterday they wouldn’t tell me anything. How did you get them to talk about your account?
Tell them it said call them on your page at ext 652
I did and they said they don’t know why and to call after 21 days
i just simply told them that i see it has been approved and the “irs refund cycle” states feb 5th as direct deposit. The guy placed me on hold and came back with still processing
I can’t get thru Noone… What number did u use and what steps gets you to an operator?
8008290582 ext 652
Just called, she says systems are down.
Thank u
18008290582 x652…u will get someone for sure
Thank u.. They playing mind games, she said systems are down. Try back later
yes they are…either they are not doing what they are suppose to or just taking their time…whatever
And if they ask for a code tell them 9001
Just tried it they still not giving me answers.
You have to specifically say I got a message to call when I checked where is my refund some people will ask what the code is tell them 9001. You have to say it just like that. You got an error message when checking WMR and was told to call in and you are not sure why
I filed on the 20th and got accepted the same day.. The WMR app showed the received bar when I checked it on the 22nd, 23rd and 14th. One the 25th the app said no information was found and its been like that ever since. Anyone else have that problem???
I also filed MN state on the 22nd and it says received but no updates after that. Uggh!
Guys. If you call the IRS and say that you received a note from Santa Barbara saying you need to verify your identity the IRS will put a note in your file to verify your identity. I just did it it’s being sent back to processing will probably have Friday she said
What number you called
This is only my second time doing my own taxes, but I don’t understand why all of you are freaking out. The message says 21 days. My DD is scheduled for the 15th. I filed the 25th. If it comes before, great! If not, I wait. It’s going into savings to save for my house. 🙂
Because when you are use to getting in 10days or less it just throws you in a panick mode when you dont a have DDD or that your bars havent moved since you filed
Did anyone find out why people are getting the message no information available?
Irs website website is saying now the site is unavailable. I filed on the 24th and was accepted the same day. Bar has still been on accepted
Filed the 17th, Accepted the 19th, and WMR updated this morning for DDD of 2/5. Check my bank and the refund is pending for 2/5.
Glad to hear some got the deposit… Did u have call them for any inquires? Before tour direct deposit?
No I did not.
I talked with an irs representative this morning he said the IRS has extended the 21 days to 28 days due to them receiving so many returns all at the same time. He said that normally its less than 21 days, but this year it may take longer, but they are doing the best they can.
all types of excuses from them for real!
Yes I just wish they would get it together my 21 days is up next Tuesday
Yes I just wish they would get it together my 21 days is up next Tuesday
My daughter’s still has one bar and she received her deposit on her netspend card an hour ago
ok
I’m sitting on one bar aswell… Hopefully that happens to me, my direct deposit magically appears by Friday.
Set up anytime alerts on your phone. Because, you may get your deposit without the bar going to approved.
how do u do that?
Dial the number on the back of your card and it will guide you.
Call the number on the back of your card and it will guide you to change or start anytime alerts.
how do u do that?
BOOOOMMMM!!!!!!
BOOOOMMMM!!!!!!

She filed and was accepted on the 24th. I filed and was accepted on the 19th and I haven’t received mine yet. Everything is crazy this year.

She filed and was accepted on the 24th
I filed my taxes Jan 20th. Still no approval but i did come across this. An updated IRS Refund Schedule! oh and dont rely on the WMR because its inaccurate due to soooo many people constantly checking it.
where did u see the updated schedule pls?
on this website http://igotmyrefund.com/irs-e-file-refund-cycle-chart-for-2016/
i seen it here http://igotmyrefund.com/irs-e-file-refund-cycle-chart-for-2016/
where did u see the updated schedule pls?
Update: I checked WMR this morning and they finally approved my refund. My deposit date is Feb 10th!! I filed Jan 20th
Hi DeShanta, i need help in deciding what tax professional to file with. Which do you suggest i use to get my refund processed faster
I highly recommend using turbo tax. It’s fast and easy! Soon as I was done filing my taxes, the IRS had accepted it that same day.
Oh! okay, i will look into Turbo Tax. This is my first time filing myself. Do you mind running me through so i don’t make a mistake. Is it okay we chat in private?
This is a first for me waiting this long but I am not too worried since everyone is having the same issue
me too
me too
I filed the 18th after 6pm, accepted by the IRS on the 19th around 3:30 pm. I’m still at one bar. I filed with TT and the sbgtb site has an account for me (I can sign in) but there’s only an account number at the top and how much I’m expecting but nothing received. I’m really hoping they send it out tonight or tomorrow. I’ve filed with TT for the past few years and its always been at 14 days.
TT user here too
I filed turbo tax to
I filed turno tax too on 1/10 accepted 1/12 was due dep on 2/2 and irs stopped it. I was one of thousands red flagged for id theft ;( spent hour on phone eith irs verifying identity…passed that now being reprocessed could take 6 weeks or more because we placed at back of line…;( HOPE NO ONE ELSE GOES THRU THIS..
my 22 yr old daughter is almost dead because of liver cancer and the medicine she needs to kerp her alive runs out tomorrow….its 900$ a vial and ins dont cover it. I take care of her and her 3
mo old baby girl…who was born 6 weeks premature …its bad enough she will not b here to see her baby first steps hear her first words or celebrate her 1st birthday BUT NOW THIS ;(( guess god has his reasons i guess ;(
TT user here too
me too, same dates/bar, nothing…
I filed and was accepted on the 24th, by the schedule I am supposed to receive my refund on the 5th, but I’m not counting on it. I really hope it wont be 28 days. 21 days is already longer than normal for me
i hope so too
i hope so too
Can anyone tell whether or not if you filed thru turbo tax does your refund goes to the santa Barbara bank FIRST!!!. I’m reading yes then no I just want to be 100% for sure before I start making my calls I filed and was accepted on January 21st. I’m getting a huge amount back I just don’t want that to be the issue.As I read that as well on this site.?
Civista Bank!!!!! Just read my print out from Turbo Tax…read it and make sure we have the same thing!!!
18779087228
Thank you
just called them and the bank, Civista and Santa Barbara are all in one group. The lady said I should allow 10 to 21 days.
Called IRS this morning and they said their system is down. Thwy can’t access anything at this time. The system failure is nationwide. I called 18008290582 ext. 652. I called three times and each time the rep said they were in a different service center. I was also told that because of this, refunds can be delayed. Was told to keep checking to see if system starts up again.
California
Filed: Jan 25
Received: Jan 25
1 bar on wmr
Wow….well thanks for the info!
You’re welcome
I called three times too. Two of them said system down, the other was like call after 22 days from when u file return.
Filed 1/19
Received 1/20
Still at one bar as of today.
Hey Jacque I spoke with irs like ten minutes ago and they said by the 12 we should have our money so when the do their big update Monday-Tuesday we will be in that batch they shut down yesterday because they are a week behind they tryna catch up but anybody that was approved on the 20th that hasn’t gotten there’s will be in that batch for next Wednesday or Friday
Hope your right. Thanks for the update!
Yes for sure the guy said
i filed my return via TaxAct on 1/17; accepted mid day on 1/19 along with my state return. Only have received one bar via WMR since 24 hours after the acceptance. Very concerned because my return is being reviewed.. Co-worker already received hers last Friday.
Like everyone else, need the money
From Illinois
not sure if it is being reviewed.. nothing has changed.. just worried because there are changes from last year’s return.
Back at the start of 2015 I got like $300 to $600 back, filed for it on 2/1/2015 and got it back 2 weeks later.
Now I’m getting $1100 this yea, filed it on 1/9, got accepted on 1/12, and all I saw was one bar and then “Your tax return is still being processed. A refund date will be provided when available.Your tax return is still being processed.” appeared around 1/31 or 2/1… bleh
Why tha f**k did IRS turn off the e filing system?!!!! No wonder refunds are slow!!!!!!!!!
what that mean? delay of refunds?
That’s what I am thinking
Uh huh
The WMR has approved me and has givien me a DDD of feb. 3. Which is today and my bank hasnt received any deposit nor has the bar changed from Approved to Sent. Does anyone have any answers?
This is some bs. Not cool to give u ddd date and they have not been deposited.
Some tines refunds post later during the day. I’ve had this happen before when my preparer used Santa Barbara bank, the morning of I saw nothing and was pissed off and worked up for nothing the bank had it but hadn’t processed it until after 11am
It also could post tomorrow, when I used JH I got a DDD date for one DAY and after all parties processed I got mine
https://www.irs.gov/uac/Newsroom/IRS-Statement-on-Experiencing-Systems-Outage
Great
That’s what I said
OMG! great! so is this meaning refunds set to deposit are at a pause??
I suppose so..you cant access your wmr
FAWK! the government is toying with us
You know it
I just checked my WMR and it does show Feb 5th date. I still do not trust the government tho
It didnt allow me to.do so
Well there goes another week added to our refunds
If you ask me they shouldn’t have done that stupid test phase at all!!!
Alright folks…just tried checking my refund status and it’s not available so yes the system is down and I am gonna go shout into a pillow
I just checked and it gave me the same old in process status. When my sister had that problem last night a few hours later that updated her ddd.
Then maybe its me
They are working my last nerve as well so i understand your frustration… I havent waited for longer than 5 days in YEARS.
I know!! It’s usually 7 days or less for us!!
I hope that happens to me but I’ve locked myself out until tomorrow lol
Oh I hope that is the issue for me…mama would like her money!!!
My bars disappeared last year about 3 to 4 days they came back and i had a dd date and this year my bars did the something i filed on the 25th its been 9 days since i filed and two days since my bars disappeared
Can’t view wmr at all
Same problem here!
Check this out:
“In the old days, people mailed in their returns, and they slowly trickled in, giving our employees and computer systems enough time to sort through and properly handle every W2 and return,” said Goldsmith. “With the advent of being able to file over the phone, and now online, people are getting us their tax information by the first and second week of the year, causing or systems to crash and employees to be working over 100 hours a week to get everything sorted. It’s a real and total cluster-eff.”
“We like to be able, normally, to get people their refunds due within a few weeks, or sooner, thanks to direct deposit,” said Goldsmith. “Unfortunately, this year it appears we will end up having to manually sort through all returns manually, which will take us several months. Refunds can expect to be received starting in July or August of this year.”
Lol..u know what I am done
In this case..im screwed..I mean dang.
Who told u this they are nit doing such a thing julu or aigust whwre u get this info from

The Silver lining is, we hear Peps getting their returns including your self. Hopefully this gets fixed asap…, otherwise people are gonna start a war lol.

your husband’s aunt lied to you the first one was jan 29th I got mine and so did some others also today some got theirs and friday will be even more. All you have to do is read here or check any IRS web site they say the same thing I do and others do too.
Um maybe you’re lying I’ve read all the comments and only two ppl on here say they got their money so…yea
A lot of ppl received theres on the 3rd, some received last friday. Go to igotmyrefund.com.
Watch how things change on here after the 5th
I got you no one ever gets there refund b4 you right?? lol maybe your husbands aunt does not even work for the IRS. I checked here alot more then 2 people say they got there refund plus the site says it too guess there lairs also?
Just about every year I never see the Approved or Deposit Date line colored in. Each year it was DD within 8-20 days. This year I am scheduled February 5th since I filed on the 20th of January. I already got my state return on the 29th which was nice. I expect to see my Wells Fargo account grow by $7,000. Thank you EIC and kids! We are going to California for a vacation, and putting $2,000 into savings.
I filed on 1/19 still at processing status. Hope to see some ddd soon. You will love Cali.
I love Cali and cannot wait to love it more! it’s been so long since my last visit in 1996. Going to Loma Linda to visit family, then do more LA stuff. I have no doubts it’ll be on the 5th 🙂 I hope yours arrives quick as well!
I filed on the 18th., no ddd…
Ok last year mine said approved than last year and this year same time and still processing so does it usually say pocessing or can it go in bank wiyh oit being approved
So this is strange. I had been able to log on to wmr all week aND tonight I enter my info and it says no information available. Please try again later….. anyone ever experience this?
A lot of ppl experienced this today. The system was down earlier.
Oh ok whew thought it was just me
At the bottom of that screen dies it give u an 800 no an ext no and a ref code? If so u have probably been chose for the identiryverify…;( whuch really sucks because it happened to me yesterday…my refund was ddd of today and i dudnt get it becayse i was chosen fir that bs …i spent hour on phone verufying..i passed and now they say can take 6 weeks to get my.refund….NOT RIGHT ;(
I have a 22 yr old daughter who wont live to see her 23 rd birthday nor see her 3 mo old babygirls furst steps hear her furst words or celebrate her first birthday…The med she needs to kerp her luver functioning will run oyt tomorrow and its 900$ a vial..ins dont cover it…i was needing my money to prolong her life a little while longerand give her as much time possible with her babygirl…BUT bc of this bs we may lose her sooner…;( unless god gives us a miracle..
THANKS A LOT IRS
Sorry to S, arorye
No no codes on the bottom. Praying you get something quick as I read about your situation
No message on mine
So now there is an outage within the IRS? As if we needed anymore delays? Last year I had my dd o. The exact 11th day from when I filed
So this is the babygirl that will never know her momma ;( plz pray for my baby and grandbaby….IRS PLZ GET ON THE BALL ;(
Diana, two beautiful girls!!! Prayers your way!!!
Thank u stacie…i can help her luve a little longer with her medication IF THE IRS woyld quit playing games…her med is outrageous and ins wont covet it….Her life LITERALLY depended on this refund…
My refund wadnt being used to buy a new car go shopping or even a vacation..it was being used to save my babys life…but does irs care H#%~L noooooooo ;( such a shame
If these are your true circumstances its sad and unfortunate. However these refunds are ALWAYS subjected to the possibility of an audit or delays so you shouldn’t put your self or your child in a situation where this refund is all or nothing. It CAN be 21 days it can be 90 to 120
So as a grown up seek other means rather than bank all on a one time refund that is NOT even guaranteed to be available.
How much is the medicine your daughter needs? are there any organizations/churches that will help you get the medicine?
Still on one bar got accepted on the 26th still processing ughhhhhh
Any updates on state
Mine was accepted on the 27th and still on stage 1 and my girlfriend got her’s approved the next day. She filed a few days after me, and I wonder if the outage has something to do with the delays ?
I wonder why there has been no changes in the status since my return was accepted on January 24th? I am perturbed and perplexed.
Same here my return was accepted Jan 27th and mine is still processing. Last year I got mine 8 days later and was approved 3 days after accepted the date.
There is clearly a high volume of returns with a healthy dose of incompetence that is delaying our refunds. I think I just ensured that I won’t see my return until July with that comment. What can I say, I sacrifice for the people in an effort to expose truths.
[just comes to the realization that he may very well be a hero]
Are friend status update and we are riggy after hom so maybe tom we get are money
I got my refund. Its a day early but there no complaints coming about that.
Had a DDD for 2/5/16 updated yesterday on WMR.
I was expecting my OH state refund before my Federal refund.
when did u file
I filed 1/23/16.
I got accepted an hour later.
My WMR status only has 2 bars.
Just checked and still only is on approved. So my refund was sent to my bank account before the IRS notified me.
Can it go in bank wiyh out sayong approved
I’m not really sure. I just know it can be sent to bank account before WMR warns you. I filed with TT and they never notified me of any change from being accepted. There must be a bug in the systems.
Ok i knew computer problems yesterday are friend filed a day beofre us and he got accepted we should be soon we filed [email protected] block and said accepted anf be deposted feb 12 that is 21 days last year was deposited in 13 days wonder what the hold up this year
What does vmr stand for
Was your refund over$1000 I’m hearing if it’s under that amount people are getting their money. I filed 1/21 I was accepted an hour later I used TT. I’m able to check my WMR it just stays on the received column.I’m wondering should I call I don’t believe I’m flagged for anything.
No it was over a $1000
Nothing yet. Now I’m starting to think they will make us wait next week
Me
To
What if it tells you the deposit amount on the Santa Barbara website? Does that mean you will receive your refund soon, even though the bars havent moved and there is no DD
I have the same issue
Speak to a bank rep, your refund may have been deposited. Could process after 11
Even if the Santa Barbara website is saying, they havent received a release date from the IRS?
Some people said they’ve received a refund although the site wasn’t updated so, it can’t hurt to try.
this is true
The Internal Revenue Service suffered a “hardware failure” on Wednesday afternoon, which left many of its tax processing systems unavailable Wednesday night, the agency announced in a statement.
The agency stopped accepting electronically filed tax returns because of the problem. The outage could affect refunds, but the agency said it doesn’t anticipate “major disruptions.”
“The IRS is still assessing the scope of the outage,” the agency said. “At this time, the IRS does not anticipate major refund disruptions; we continue to expect that nine out of 10 taxpayers will receive their refunds within 21 days.”
The IRS.gov website remains available, but “Where’s My Refund” and other services are not working.
Some systems will be out of service at least until Thursday, the agency said. “The IRS is currently in the process of making repairs and working to restore normal operations as soon as possible,” the IRS said.
Taxpayers can continue to send electronic returns to companies that serve as middlemen between taxpayers and the IRS. But those companies have to hold on to the tax returns until the IRS systems are up and running again, the IRS said.
This is really frustrating. I hope they still make deposits tomorrow.
Still no movement on my WMR its been on “received & processing since 1/24 which is when I filed, honestly I believe it’s obsolete this year, since they’re having so many issues. I just turned on deposit notifications for my bank acct & I hope I get it tomorrow, or on 2/12 at the latest.
What does additional review mean is it an audit
Basically….. Mines says that for the State
Years ago for the federal and it was an audit….they take a manual look over your taxes rather than let the computer process it
How long does it take
Here’s what the Refund Advantage website has to say:
January 28, 2016 – Unusual Refund Patterns at IRS
As of 7am Eastern this morning, the IRS has still only released a small trickle of refunds so far this year. Never in the history of e-file have most early filers waited this long to receive their refund.
By the end of today, the IRS is scheduled to release approximately 10% of refunds under $1000 which were filed prior to 1/23/2016. Tomorrow, the IRS is slated to release some additional refunds which were filed on 1/23 and 1/24. However, as is the case today, our information shows that the IRS will again release only approximately 10% of refunds under $1000 during that time period. Put another way, for the most part, the IRS has not yet released ANY refund over $1000.
This situation is nationwide, affecting all taxpayers and all tax preparers throughout the country. Based on our records, never in the recent past has the IRS waited this long to release the initial large batch of refunds related to early filers.
Keep in mind that it is still possible that additional refunds will be released by the IRS today or tomorrow other than those mentioned above. Also, it is likely that we will receive additional information over the next two days on when the remaining refunds will be released. If that occurs, we will post a message here to let you know.
January 27, 2016 – No Federal Refunds Yet (updated)
As of 3:30pm Eastern, the IRS has still not yet released the first large batch of refunds this year. There was a very (we mean VERY) small handful of refunds released by the IRS this afternoon. But in ALL of these cases, the taxpayers owed an offset debt to the U.S. Treasury. The batch released by the IRS was so small that it is extremely unlikely that any ERO reading this message even had a customer included in the batch.
Keep in mind that no one in the entire country (except for the very, very small batch released today) have received refunds yet. We continue to believe that the IRS is likely to release the remaining refunds by the end of this week.
January 27, 2016 – No Federal Refunds Yet
As of 8:30am this morning, the IRS has not yet started to release federal refunds. Although we expect the IRS to begin releasing refunds soon, there is no indication of exactly when that may occur. We will let you know just as soon as we receive an indication of when the IRS will begin releasing refunds.
Additionally, the IRS Wheres My Refund tool is still not yet showing estimated refund dates for anyone, anywhere in the country. Rarely has the IRS has waited this long after the startup of e-file to begin releasing federal refunds.
We still believe that it is very likely that the IRS will begin releasing refunds by the end of this week.
Like everyone else on here since the day I filed I’ve been on edge checking like a psych every second for my refunds…only to find my state under review for up to 90 days. Called the federal several times and each rep says ” we can only access your account after the 21st day” They didn’t ask any of my information just gave a genric script response. I do this every year and every year I ALWAYS get my money back before V-Day so why so much anxiety only to receive my money in the allotted time and look back and say see you worked yourself up for no reason at all. I say this to say, let’s all try to just be patient until the actual 21st day mines is the 9th and not work ourselves up or stress ourselves out with the same questions when we already know the response. I’m sure we all have jobs, still collecting income and although we wanna shop, pay bills and do whatever we want with what we earned we can survive a few more days…have a good day everyone.
sighing lol..good point
Still at the first bar, I hope they deposit all refunds tomorrow morning like there schedule says. Only one more day to find out.
Fingers crossed! I filed on 1/19 still at one bar.

Some systems will be out of service at least until Thursday, the agency said. “The IRS is currently in the process of making repairs and working to restore normal operations as soon as possible,” the IRS said.
Taxpayers can continue to send electronic returns to companies that serve as middlemen between taxpayers and the IRS. But those companies have to hold on to the tax returns until the IRS systems are up and running again, the IRS said.
EVERYONE PLEASE READ!
The Internal Revenue Service suffered a “hardware failure” on Wednesday afternoon, which left many of its tax processing systems unavailable Wednesday night, the agency announced in a statement.
The agency stopped accepting electronically filed tax returns because of the problem. The outage could affect refunds, but the agency said it doesn’t anticipate “major disruptions.”

This was released to just cover up them being slow this year and to shut things down so they can get a little ahead.
You guys read about the computer shutdown today? Wonder how bad it is and how much all of us who filed early will be affected
Called irs. Rep advised those of us who were accepted on the 22nd our last day before we should call is the 12th of friday. The website updates from 3-6 am.
okay cool…jan 22nd here
Yes but if so why still processing and no bar moved
You can receive refund without status movement
Wow mine every year was a movement mine says processong and accepted on 21 are friend bar moved today and he filed a day beofre us
There is no blanket answer for that as each return is different. Could be just slow, it could be what others here have mentioned that people checked the wmr site so much it crashed and doesnt update anymore, theres a lot of different reasons.
Thank u last year was fast and approved a week and 3 days later deposit
Anyone have your return accepted but still no date? Mine accepted on Jan 25, which should mean I’m getting it tomorrow Feb 5, but literally no change or date since it accepted on the 25th. I just wanna knowww if I’m getting it tomorrow or not! 🙁
I filed my on the 16th, it got accepted the 19th, got state on the 23rd and federal is still on first bar…..I pray it’s there tomorrow. I went on bank website and I have an account but the IRS didn’t sent refund to them yet….smh
Depends on the bamk i have my own bank acct amd it goes pretty fast
I mean the bank the IRS sends refunds through. Someone posted a link and said if you are able to log in, it means irs processed your refund, I think it sbtpg.com.
Ok i dont know about that i have own checking acct so i really dont know
yeah, I have a bank account but this is the bank the irs uses, they send the info to them and then they send it to your bank…..go to the website, select taxpayers and enter your info (like on wheres my refund) and it’ll tell you the amount and whether it was received or not!
Processing been since jan21 but [email protected] r block said approved
then you should get it tomorrow, hopefully me too!
Hope so cuz its never took this long last year hopefully bar moves to approved tom and deposted tom or sat morning it was this way last year good luck
How did you find that out?
[email protected] block app
Okay mine just says received and says Feb 12th, but that is my 21 days
Yes mine too
Mine too so who knows why takimg longer
My sister filed after me and she got hers today, she owed money and she had a small refund. Idk if what people are saying is right about the bigger refunds taking 2 weeks is true but I’m starting to think it is
Yes could be om calling my bank to aee about a deposit
She also said her bars went from 1 to all 3 since last night
Yes my froend did tii two bars im at one
Me too
May cuz of health care crap but are is yhe same as last year ni change in that but i guess i need to be patience
I was able to log in but they didnt say it was received. But if it wasn’t processed that means they wouldn’t know the amount. So maybe mine was processed? .
yes, if they hadn’t, then an account wouldn’t have been set up…..maybe by the end of the day, they will get the deposit and send it to our banks….fingers crossed!!!
Ok, this is kind of good news lol
yeah, I’ll take any little thing right about now….lol
They said ppl had expected dates on that site. Everyone’s disappeared because they were getting too many calls from us nuts jobs lol So they took them off. They might not put up an expected date on the site so it might be tomorrow like expected
can you post that link where someone said that
https://taxpayer.sbtpg.com/login.aspx
no the link to where someone said if you can log in it was processed
When you say bank website are you talking about sbtg? Cuz I went there too! And same thing 🙁 with! My return is like so straight forward too, there’s nothing that should hold it up or anything… Super annoying! Just afraid since no update today that it won’t be getting deposited tomorrow – here’s to hoping it updates overnight tonight!
yes, were you able to log in???
Yeah, I put all my same info in as you do on where’s my refund but it just says they haven’t received it yet..
me too, let’s hope it’s there tomorrow!!!
I filed on 1/19 got accepted and processing as of today. No movement on the bars, I hope it magically appears tomorrow in my bank acc.
Everyone that filed before Jan 30th I would like to say a little prayer. lol
Did something go wrong?
No but we should of all had our DD and hoping we all still get it tomorrow even without it being updated like the schedule says we should
Yeah no. I’ve long since given up on that hope. Now I’m just hoping I get it before tuition is due for spring :’D
Have any filed there tax return on the 19 and its now feb the 4 and it still said being processed. Trying to see I’m the only one. Feb 8 makes 21 days.
No I did mine on the 18th of January they accepted it on the 20th and mine still says processing I don’t know what is going on
mine was accepted on the 19 but on tt they said Feb 9 is my 21 days so I’m praying they come tom!
Does it still say being processed
yes, first bar
the WMR isn’t working, the IRS E-file system is shut down and so is where’s my refund, so none of us are going to see any bars move, at least till next Thursday they are saying, but isn’t effecting anyone who filed b4 the shut down yesterday
I also filed on the 19th… As of today still at one bar. Ugh!!!
I filed on the 20th and I have gotten nothing from Federal nor State. And in my state people who have filed after me are at least getting state back.
Yes I did mine the 18th of January and they accepted it on the 20th and it says still processing
This the first of my life that this happened to me always got my taxes 5 to 7 to 10 days never had this before.
I feel like every time I file early (before end of Jan) there’s always a hold up. Maybe cuz so many people are doijng the same? Mine “supposed to” be deposited tomorrow but no update as of yet on IRS site so not very optimistic
When did you file and does it still say being processed
Jan 24, has said processing since then. :-/
Has anyone called the IRS after the 21 days to figure out why they have not. Got There refund
Supposedly the 21 days doesn’t start until the 19th no matter how early you filed. So that wouldn’t be until next week… 🙁
Since the shut down/ glitch lastnight….21 days is out the window. They are adding an additional week processing time….so 4 weeks and not 3. Most people this year are waiting the full 21 days due to the new security checks. You can call 800 829 0582. Press 1 for english and 652 for the ext. Tell them that you checked your WMR and this 800 number and ext was listed for you to call them. Without a code or ext they wont look at your account and give you any info. Upon speaking to them, they can let you know about how long you will have to wait, if u changed your address, if your identity needs to be verified….etc. Hope this helps you out. We all are just gonna have to be patient this yr. And yes filing early does not start your 21 days early. IRS opened on the 19th so thats when they start from. If you filed after the 19th then you count from the day the IRS sent you confirmation that it was accepted!!
I just thought I’d share my past experiences with DDD, and what I’ve found trolling the net about this year. For those who filed early returns, it seems that 98% of people are waiting the full 21 days for their refund. Some have already received their refund; many have seemed to report that 2/5 is their expected DDD.
It is very possible to receive your refund WITHOUT the bar moving from accepted to approved on WMR. This happened to me last year. I checked one night and the bar hadn’t moved from accepted; the next morning, my refund was DD yet the bar still hadn’t yet moved.
It appears that the general consensus is that the IRS only updates the WMR on Wed. But speaking of Wed., it seems that DDD are only on Wed., and Fri.
Because of added security measures regarding ID theft, it seems that A LOT of people are receiving their state refunds sooner than their federal. But that depends on the state you live in and how fast they’re processing their paperwork.
The IRS has been suffering from glitches regarding E-filing, but if you E-filed BEFORE or AFTER the glitch, it shouldn’t affect your DDD at all. You’re in the clear. If you haven’t been able to E-file because of the glitch, it may only set back your refund by a couple of days. You should still receive your refund within the 21 day period, though.
The processing of federal returns is done randomly; it doesn’t matter if you filed single or jointly, nor if your return was simple or complex. But E-filing is, of course, the fastest way to receive your refund.
Also, 2 people can E-file on the exact same day, at the exact same time, and one may receive their refund sooner than the other. However, say that one receives their refund on a Wed., the other person should receive theirs on Fri.
If you check WMR and an error message pops up, try clearing your browsing history and try again. The error message doesn’t necessarily mean “the glitch” is in affect. Sometimes the error it has to do with the sheer number of people checking their refund status.
Only contact the IRS about your refund after the 21 days has lapsed. They will be more willing to help you then. Anything before that, they’ll tell you to contact them after the 21 days. You can contact your bank and they’ll tell you if your DD is pending. Then it’s just a matter of the BANK releasing the funds, which usually happens the next morning.
Actually now that you say that I’ve def received my refund in my account in the past, without an update on WMR… Def hasn’t happened yet this year tho lol
So are they only doing them on Fridays?
Thank you for this! Seems the best info I’ve gotten yet, you check with IRS and they just give you a bland blanket response
When do the people get there taxes that file on the the 19th. This is crazy it is now February 4th.
I filed Jan 21 still nothing. never waited so long but since that shut down imma hope we get it by Wed we should have it.
What shut down when was the shut down. And is it back up.
Your guess is as good as mine ?
I just checked my mothers, She filed as single and her DD is 2/5 I filed as joint a day later and it is still processing. My refund is 4 times more then hers
http://cdn.taxproductsgroupblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/02/funding-schedule.png?852513 So I am assuming if the IRS sent it to taxpayer.sbtpg.com/login.aspx and you can log in you will recieve your funds in a couple days after. Look at the first link
i have been doing so since Monday with nothing there, just the amount
I am thinking tomorrow is your day..

Hello all…I have another update!! Thanks to the gliche lastnight in the IRS system everyone can expect to wait 4 WEEKS instead of 3. Called them again today after hearing about the glitch on the news. They are adding an additional week to everyone’s processing time. That doesn’t mean it won’t come early but expect to wait past 21 days. Everyone logging and calling is crashing there systems…smh! The wait continues guys!!
Ughhh! Well that’s some crap! I really hope it doesn’t affect all of those that filed nearly 21 days ago!
well it does. my 21 days is up on the 8th and i still was given the additional week processing. still may come early. Im not even checking on it anymore. im just gonna wait til I get the txt to my phone of a deposit. shit is ridiculous.
When you called back what did you say for them to check it? I had a message to call the on mine and want to find out if the identity issue has been resolved
I called the IRS about the identity and was advised that if there was not letter sent by the IRS I was advised to still wait until 21 days. My expectant for DD is the 5th based on me filing the 20th , but it seem I shall just wait until the 21 days. Based on Turbo that is the 10th.
They had not sent the letter out yet but there was a flag on y case the guy said I was going to get a letter but disregard because I had already completed the identity process
Ok. They didn’t tell me much with the system down. But said to just allow the 21 days. But I also have not got state and they have started to issue them out here and nothing for me.
call 800 829 0582 ext 652 tell them you have that message and that 800 number i gave u plus ext was also there. they should help you out!!
Thank you
No problem!!
Another thing people….Federal refunds are just that…FEDERAL!! That means the entire US. Your state doesnt matter with you getting your Federal return. STATE taxes are handled in your state. Federal taxes are not processed or distributed by state, last names, birth dates…etc!! Our Federal Gov’t is in DC if yall aint know!!
Ok here is the info if you go to https://taxpayer.sbtpg.com/ and enter your information …if you have an account set up then your taxes have been processed and approved. YOU WILL NOT HAVE AN ACCOUNT IF YOU HAVE NOT BEEN APPROVED AND PROCESSED.
They told you this?
yeah she said they specifically did
That is all i need to know lol
lol i am just not gonna look at anything during the day anymore where I will be idignant and stuff
Yes they did she said If you can enter your information there then you have been processed and approved otherwise there will be no amount there…She said the bank does not know your amount until the IRS authorizes them to set one up. So therefore if you are in that system them you are processed and approved and should receive your funds within 48 HRS.
Again this was told to me by an IRS agent. She was really nice and I think gave me info she did not have to
Ok i have a questipn. I can log in sbtpg and it says my dep date of 2/2 has passed. And tje irs is processing my return .
So how can they give the bank a dep date and then take it away
I wouldnt rely too mych on the just logging in part ;(
Ok, so tomorrow it should be
Depending on your bank might be Saturday but I would safely say if you are in that system then Definitely by Monday I imagine it depends on who you bank with and how fast the process the funds.
Well I have been able to log in since at least Monday (that’s the earliest I tried) and still nothing on wmr and no date on the bank’s website so the 48 hours thing is wrong for sure but I REALLY hope the fact that I have been able to log in all week means I’ll wake up to a good text tomorrow.
amen
I hope so too I was not able to log in until Yesterday
May I ask how much your’s is for…or more like is it over $1000? I am wondering how much weight this over/under $1000 thing holds.
4077
ok mine is over $5000 hopefully we all get the great news tomorrow!! 🙂
I hope so too 🙂 good luck
if indeed you do get your deposit, please let us know..when did u file
I sure will and I filed on the 20th and was accepted the same day. it went from accepted to processing on 01/24
good stuff
Ok so when I get on the site I put my info in once it opens up it has my refund amount but no date and I also have a #id log in number. Does that mean I have an open account.???
dont trust any site if its not the IRS WEBSITE thats not how they do things
I am just trying to give helpful information that I received to help everyone out, believe it or not….Click on it or not I don’t care You are obviously concerned about your as you are in this discussion.
I just thought I would share what I was told by the IRS.
It is a green dot site…that is probably only helpful if it isn’t DD to a bank
the link I posted is not green dot
its a bank that does the transfers for the IRS
From their about page:

I am not sure I have mine going to my Chase account
No. Mine is going to my bank. It goes there first
If you pay your taxes through your refund. It goes to tpg to take out the money you owe your tax guy and pay him from there too
I would think that those who aren’t paying for any tax services wouldn’t go to that tpg thing.
Looks like a scam
Hope not
Correct you have an account and the IRS will be sending your refund there to be sent to your bank
Ok thanks
yup click the link because it would work better then the offical IRS website ……someone click the link lol fat girl is trustworthy …lol
I was specifically told this from the IRS
I wonder if IRS is even caring or reading people’s frustration..just a thought
They care. They aren’t getting their returns on time either
I hope that I get my refund tomorrow how sweet would that be, what was the point of doing the taxes early if its not going to be there i filed back on jan15 and was accepted on the 19th lets pray LOL
Ammmeeeennnnnnn
That’s what I told my hubs, what’s the point!? Last year I filed on 1/31 got my refund on 2/14
This year I filed on 1/19 and still waiting! It’s bull crap.
my too
I filed 1/18/2016 accepted 1/19/2016, got the it’s being processed and nothing else. Should I be concerned?
Not yet as they had a crash a few days ago so everything is behind
Thank you ?
I have a costumer ID set up, is that it?
YEs if you are set up then the IRS has already processed and sent your information to that bank otherwise how would they know your refund amount?
Does everyone go threw this bank?
I think those only that didnt pay out of pocket
I did mine for free on TT and I am in that bank I bank with Chase so I believe everyone does , However I am not sure on that
Maybe it depends on who does your taxes.
I choose to have my fees come out of my refund and everytime i check the bank site it tells me they can’t find my account
No
sorry i check out he link on my phone last year it was a different link so my apologys
No worries …..I am just trying to pass on information that I came across hope it helps and hope we all get our money fast 🙂
mine did not have a date just account number, so I don’t think i’m getting it tomorrow
When i go to WMR to check my status i dont have the orange bars anymore and it gives me a code.??? Sooooo annoyed
What’s the code? If it’s 152 that just means you signed up for direct deposit
Yeah it is…. ive never waited so long this is crazy
What code are u receiving?
152
That just mean you chose direct dep for ur return
Yes I know.
Ok so did anyone file the 19th to the 20th on Turbo?. I filed the 20th and I heard that many people that filed the 19th got a email advising their refunds have been approved. Here is the kicker they are saying those who file after the 19th like me aren’t getting refunds deposit after the 5th. WTF
I filed before the 19th but it was accepted on the 19th through TT. I have not received any e-mails or notifications at all. According to TT 28% of people who were accepted on the 19th have already received their refunds but unfortunately, I am not in that 28%. According to WMR I am still on 1 bar but I am able to log into SBTPG but it says they have not received my refund from the IRS yet and directs me to check WMR for more information. As far as I can tell no flag or anything wrong with my return it’s just taking FOREVER.
Yes I just check WMR and I got one bar still. and mines is 26% of those who file on the 20th has gotten there refund. I mean this is crazy. I always have filed through TT and its never been this long
Same here! In all the years I have filed taxes…even way back when I got paper checks in the mail, I have NEVER had to wait this long for a refund! Last year with TT I got it in 7 days I believe and the year before it was 8-10 with TT. H&R took a little longer but still less than 14 days!
I guess we have to wait and see if there is a deposit in our accounts tomorrow and if not next week will be 21 days and hopefully we get it. I thought I was the only one going through this and I see there are many of us.
I know…it is depressing but oddly comforting. I mean I wish none of us had to wait but I am glad that I am not the only one because it means I did nothing wrong, the IRS just sucks more than usual this year. As much as I have enjoyed my little “savings plan” by letting the IRS borrow my money I do not think I will be doing it again next year. I will just figure out exactly how much needs to be taken out to cover my butt and have that deducted from my paychecks instead of letting the IRS borrow my money ever again.
I’m thinking the same thing… I mean its nice to get one big check at the beginning of the year but… this waiting thing sucks.
I agree with you guess. It sucks ass that we are all in the same boat, but comforting that you are not alone. I will just be happy to once get both and be done. But patience is a virtue and I guess this is the lesson of the year for 2016.
Hahahahaha Lesson learned and noted! Now give my my money! lmao
As the Great Stewie from family guy says ” I WANT MY MONEY”
YES!!!!!! “You got my money?? Where’s my money Brian?” or in this case IRS! lol
no games
and my turbo tax says 28% received their money but i think that was the glitch they said they where going to split DDD one for the 29th and the other for the 5th
so if the SBTPG has your account # but no date what does that mean ? its approved but is it that the IRS cant transfer the money because of this computer problem
I sound like a fool but what SBTPG
https://www.sbtpg.com/ go to taxpayers, then go to check with TPG. another girl listed a link i thought it was a scam but its not. i did this last year it shows if money was direct deposited or if you even have a account. which if you have an account they have approved you just waiting for DD
I went on there and they havehave no info on my refund so filing on the 20th and getting it tomorrow is looking like a no.
try tomorrow sorry mine shows up with the account and amount i am supposed to get but.. no DD date
no mines came up with that also but it said that they had no received it from the IRS
when was yours accepted
I also got to see the amount and they have a account # for me also. But it said that it had not been received from the IRS.,
that means its approved but your waiting on the direct deposit from IRS
Oh so if there is an account and amount its just awaiting the IRS! Jasmine don’t get me excited here lol
BUT when is the big question i want the direct deposit date lol
There you go that is most important when will we get it
they are the bank that processes the irs returns
I just checked TPG again and before you can log on this message showed up “Your refund may be delayed due to system issues at the IRS: CLICK HERE for details”
Close
i filed on the 15 of january and it was accepted on the 19th in the morning i have not yet got a email from turbotax
Have you got wither refund from your state or federal?
im in Florida i dont get a state
Well that is one less stress for you, lol
yeah I know but its funny some people said they have already got their state and state usually takes longer then federal
U might be up dor additional review like I am they’re saying an extra week
We arent gettn refunds?? Or we are not gettn them until after the 5th??
I filed with TT got accepted on the 19th and I’m still waiting to be approved or for a DDD. My son did his last week with TT and he’s getting his tomorrow. Okay so he did his for free and I paid for mine but still… kinda burns my butt if you know what I mean.
Cheryl same here I have the paid TT and nothing. went on WMR and still in the processing stage. Even state I have not gotten back and I am like ok what is going on here.
This is what I am getting. I went on the stbg website and I dont have an account yet. I have checked my sisters accout, she has the same message, but she has an account on stbg…I called the IRS yesterday, she said wait til the 9th (21 days from the 19th) and call back if I dont have my refund. She said I dont have anything to worry about, but like everyone else, I never had to wait this long or had this note before…
Yes I called IRD yesterday and was advise in a calm voice to allow the 21 days and have nothing to worry about.
lol in a calm voice
I know right lol.
Did you pay for your taxes out of pocket?
I had the amount deducted from my direct deposit.
Ok then you will have an acount on stbg
I still dont have an account as of today… I was able to go to the IRS website and order my transcript for 2015, which I wasnt able to do the other day.
They’re saying its an extra review…that takes an extra week
I got this and it was saying I had to verify my identity
Anyone using Tax Act have a DDD? Just curious
I dont have one yet
No DDD for me. Filed 1/21 and approved same day. I do know their bank is actually Republic Trust. The site is http://www.republicrefund.com. Shows my account but no amount recvd yet.
Remember people. Irs crashed a few days ago. If they still did it by hand we’d all be waiting till August to get our refunds. Machines crash and people make mistakes. I know it’s hard to be patient. We all have things we want to buy with our refunds. The people who work for the Irs aren’t getting their returns any quicker than we are.

In My mind what I think the IRS is Doing …..
LOL
That is funny…but really they are working overtime to try and get our taxes done.
True but we have to laugh…otherwise we shall all go insane! They do work hard and they hate this time of year as much as we hate waiting. They are only people who are understaffed and under-budgeted and we know that but we’ve gotta have a few chuckles to keep us going.
My current situation
..
I think most people would relax if they would stop giving the Federal Government an interest free loan every year and expecting it to come back in a timely fashion. The tax code is all kinds of screwed up and our culture has made us all ‘expectant’ of the tax return, even so far as to have life or death situations depend on ‘government efficiency’…So while we wait, remember, the tax code sucks and they should abolish the KGB..i mean IRS.
Here’s to hoping and praying that February 5th makes us happy!
I’ll drink to that
I will to 🙂
On a side note…last year it took a week for me to get my refund *Only got one due to ‘tax credits’ written into law, same as this year*This year I’m still waiting, filed and accepted 1/23, partners 1/22 and he has a DDD for tomorrow.
Hopefully you’ll both get your refunds tomorrow. But remember, although you might have filed the same day or even before your partner that doesn’t mean they were grouped together.
Good luck
I don’t hold my breath. 🙂 Or rely on the tax returns to live…even the IRS says you shouldn’t do that..but people don’t listen 😀
Expkain this to me then…i filed on 1/10 accepted on 1/12 apprived and DD was fir 2/3 but still no money…got a message on wmr that no info foynd so i callwd irs had to spend hr verifying identity and then got told b 6 weeks til i get refund…how can they approve and give a dd and then not send money …just turn aroynd force me to verify identity and maje me wait 6 weeks..
HOW IS THIS POSDIBLE ;(
My 22 yr old daughter has less than 6 weeks to luve due to liver cancer and she has a 3 mo old baby girl…i needed this money to help her with med she needs to help het stay alive..and ins DONT cover and now we can only pray cause without the med she wont make it 6 weeks
Pro tip. It’s the irs. They can do whatever they want.
Dint mind verifying identity but i SHOULD NOT have to wait 6 weeks when i already had a DD
They are going to start releasing funds tomorrow…(5th)
maybe ….
Let’s keep the prayers going! I have lot’s of things to take care of. I will be able to pay off car, student loan, pay 6mos to a year for car insurance, and drive to Cali to visit family!
Cali is also on my list!!! May God bless us all.
Hope so mine says processimgand foled in 21 and approved on the 22
Mine filled and accepted on the 20th
I mean the irs website processing and [email protected] block approved the 22
i filed the 19th of January and still no monies
Its safe to say we all hoping for a miracle tomorrow to have that DDD.
On the Refund Schedule Facebook, A lady had mentioned the IRS system hardware failure crash, blah blah, As being a complete Hoax . so irs can catch up.
I def believe that
Same here
and damm that bounced check i wrote…! ooo taxes oo taxes where art thou 🙁
Its to the point all you can do is laugh and make fun of this foolery the IRS has us all like WTF.
seriously tho…i let go about three days ago. . so idk .
I fell you. making payment when you got a check that yo ass cant cash!!!
yeap. stupid me …i just relied on last years turnaround..which was 5 days.
same here and the year I filed early I get this mess
Stacie hope not lawyer lawyer where art thou! lol
It really crashed. I have friends that work for the irs. Lol she’s just wanting to cause trouble.
so tomorrow people who filed the 20th or before should have their returns the 5th?
So they say, but I have not gotten one update on that and I filed the 20th
i filed the 19th and still no money. i dont remember it taking this long last year
It doesn’t usually but since they had a bit of a computer crash it’s taking longer. Hopefully tomorrow
Me too
I filed the 20th too and I have nothing on the WMR except processing , however I was told that the bank link I posted earlier meant you were processed and approved so I am going to sleep tonight with the hopes that my deposit will be there in the morning. Last year I got my refund an d 3 days later it moved from processing to approved and then the next day (day 4) it said money sent and I had my money for 4 days already.
so I definitely believe you can receive it without it moving from processing cause it happened to both my sister and I last year.
What does vmr mean?
Where my refund
Ok mine was received and been thatt way since jan22 and still on one bar
What bank link?
https://taxpayer.sbtpg.com
Irs says irs down working on it
But I went one the website it is for green dot cards
Mine still processing hopefully approved tom and deposit sat
Hopefully they should. No guarantees
Where did you hear that?
that would be the tax refund schedule but the glitch happened then they updated it saying they split it for the 29th and 5th if you did you return and was accepted 1/19-1/29
The approved part on irs wmr or the online i filed onlibe thru [email protected] block was accepted by them thru irs bit the wmr days processing
yes but lets see
i just want my money
on a lot of the news sites they say the IRS is trying to have problem fixed by today
Yes i called [email protected] block and went to irs websiite they are working on it
This is true. And hopefully a ton of people will be getting returns tomorrow
Amen
I filed on Jan 30th and got a DD date of Feb 8th. My Husband Filed Jan 19th still haven’t got a date yet! im not sure whats going on!
It could be the crash. Also not all returns are grouped together. That could be why you’re getting yours first
That is what I do not understand on how can people who filed after be approved and those who filed early are in the hole
Who did you use to file your taxes? I filed on the 29th and was accepted on the 29th and still nothing
I filed with freetaxusa I do my own…. My husband went through Jackson Hewitt!
It could have something to do with the crash. Also even though you did your taxes first doesn’t mean you’d get your refund before him. They group the returns and they might not have gone in the same group.
What is this transcript people are speaking of and what do I need to get one or how do I get one?
Return Transcript
Where and how do I obtain one?
You dont need one. I never got one and always had my return before 7 days
Ok thanks.
On the IRS website
Okay I filed 24th and accepted on the 24th still at one bar. No account on https://taxpayer.sbtpg.com/login.aspx (my sister has an account with no deposit date and filed on 2/1 but paid for TT) I filled with TT for free. No I have never waited this long. Yes I have changed address but I changed address last year and that wasn’t affected. I really think they are behind this year…..But I am in prayer until the 8th but after that I will be calling them in 15 minute intervals until I get some news……( not really) Beyond frustrated. I just want my Christmas in February gosh darn it!! Wishfully thankful I wake up with a nice deposit tomorrow morning. Praying for the rest of you all…..but I might toss a table if my sister gets her refund before I do. Will wait next year to file this is ridiculous. Rant over.
I filed with TT on the 30th and don’t have an account with the bank yet. I guess it all depends on what group your return goes into. I want my Christmas too :). Have to pay off disneyworld and for a root canal
This single momma over here like COME ON!!
Filed with TT
I don’t understand how people filed after I did and have a DDD already! What the heck!!! I know I have a large amount coming, but it’s been like that for the past 6 years.
Join the group Bonnie. ITs frustrating and I have not got neither State or Federal
My state is coming before my federal. Which I’ve never had happen. Lame IRS!
Not every year
Well people have filed after me have at least gotten state I just sitting her waiting on both.
They group returns when they receive them. Also could have something to do with the crash.
They have a crush every single year. They use the to play catch up.
Wish people would stop blaming the irs. It’s the people who check on their returns a lot during the day that made the system crash in the first place. That’s one of the reasons you’re getting your return late. Just remember they are people too.
I don’t think it has anything to do with people checking on their returns! LOL! You’ve been able to check on your returns in the past and this has never happened. And the system didn’t crash until yesterday… many of us have had our returns done since the 20th… but they are already running behind because off all the identity theft and what not. Blaming the crash on people checking their returns is just a load of crap. Sorry…
The IRS does a poor job and not efficient
Exactly! Its funny how the crash happens and refunds get delayed.. however the deadline for filing hasn’t changed… everyone is still expected to have everything done ON TIME! The IRS gets a pass though!
every year they have a problem either it happens early or later but every stinking year
No one gets a pass! The people that work for the irs are in the same boat as us. They don’t have heir returns yet either
The IRS does a poor job and not efficient
Don’t be sorry. I used to work at the irs and I will say I did quit because of the work load and the stress. There was more than 1 crash this year.
No wonder all you been doing is sticking up for them lol

We’ll never know.. but I wouldn’t be surprised if it never happened.

This is crazy I’ve been needing this refund, my hours were cut, raises have been frozen at work and my kids and I lived in a hotel for a month as a result of a bad storm. This has had me in depth for the past few months, please come on IRS with my refund !
All we can do is wait…and hope it doesn’t crash again
Yeah I guess so
Yeah I guess so
leave it to the IRS but if you owe them a dollar they take it for sure
Okkkaayyyyyy!!!!!
Yyyi
Okkkaayyyyyy!!!!!
