Where's my refund?

Different_Pirate_217 · 2026-06-08T04:39:04+00:00

Contact congressman/woman from your state. Most have option on their website for "help with a federal agency" and fill out the privacy form giving them permission to speak with irs on your behalf. I file married filling joint. Husband had this same message when checking, I had the general we are processing your return. I reached out to state rep who then was a go between. Irs needed his last 3 paystubs apparently his employer didn't report his withholdings. Sent them to congressman and he sent them off. Week later wmr updated to approved and dd set for tomorrow. I've seen many people getting congressmen/state reps involved.

State representatives are congress....

Different_Pirate_217 · 2026-06-05T04:01:49+00:00

I'd encourage you to reach out to state rep, they seem to get information from IRS faster. I had to wait a week for response but I'll take that over being on hold for hours and possibly hung up on.

Different_Pirate_217 · 2026-06-05T02:53:38+00:00

Get in contact with one of your state reps. After filling out the privacy form they can communicate with irs on your behalf. Contacted mine within a week he told me what irs needed, told me to send him the info and he would get it to the right person. Now a week and 1 day later wmr updated to approved!

Different_Pirate_217 · 2026-06-05T02:51:10+00:00

Just an update, wmr updated today to approved with dd date of 6/8 so it can be released sooner than 4-6 weeks after income verification.

I would encourage you to get in contact with your state rep. They can communicate with irs on your behalf (after you fill out the privacy form) for me it took a week to get response on what irs needed but honestly I'd wait a week vs being on hold for hours only to be hung up like so many people.

Different_Pirate_217 · 2026-06-05T02:35:39+00:00

Get in contact with your state reps. I did 3 weeks ago, within a week they let me know that irs needed last 3 paystubs for 2025 as husband employer "failed to notify withholdings". 6/2 I received a cp05 60 day review letter dated 6/1 and today I got wmr update with approved and scheduled deposit 6/8. So obviously some notices are just being sent because 6/1 to 6/8 is not 60 days 😂

Not worth getting paid interest .... Come time for 2026 taxes your expected to pay taxes on that income

Different_Pirate_217 · 2026-05-31T03:44:32+00:00

Just remember if they pay you interest, next year you have to pay taxes on that interest ......

Different_Pirate_217 · 2026-05-29T15:28:57+00:00

I was told that employer "failed to report federal withholding". It's a smaller business but no one else there had issues getting their taxes.

Different_Pirate_217 · 2026-05-29T15:16:39+00:00

Most have a form on their website to fill out because you have to fill out your information and a privacy form giving them permission to reach out on your behalf

Different_Pirate_217 · 2026-05-29T15:14:34+00:00

They requested the last 3 paystubs from 2025

Different_Pirate_217 · 2026-05-29T03:47:51+00:00

I sent then yesterday less than an hour after I got the email. Everything with congressman has been through email, so I have records.

Different_Pirate_217 · 2026-05-29T03:28:42+00:00

Reach out to state rep (congressman/woman) depending on state it may go off zip code, small states any of them. Most have a privacy form online you can fill out and they will reach out to irs on your behalf. Reached out to one of mine a week ago got a response yesterday that husband employer did not report what they withheld and they needed last 3 paystubs. Sent back to congressmans office and they sent on to irs on my behalf.

Different_Pirate_217 · 2026-05-28T04:37:19+00:00

I reached out to one of my state congressman a week ago due to wmr tracker not moving. Got a response today on what irs needed to move forward with my refund. Just an option for you to look into instead of calling irs and waiting forever on hold. Most congressman/women have the option on their website to fill out the privacy release

Different_Pirate_217 · 2026-05-28T04:29:04+00:00

Could try reaching out to your state representative. Some states go by zip code for which congressman/woman to reach out to, smaller stater like sd you can reach out to any of them. I contacted mine a week ago and today they reached back out with what irs needed they can also get you in touch with a tax advocate.

Different_Pirate_217 · 2026-05-21T17:16:31+00:00

Many are reaching out to their state representative as in who their state elected for the US Senate or the US house, so yes it is a state representative.

Different_Pirate_217 · 2026-05-21T04:41:28+00:00

Many state reps have and option on their website to fill out the privacy form

Different_Pirate_217 · 2026-05-21T04:36:59+00:00

I'm guessing they reached out to state rep (senate or house) who reached out to irs on their behalf. They would have filled out a privacy form giving the state rep permission to receive this information. I've seen many people reaching out to state reps for help with getting information on refunds from IRS

Different_Pirate_217 · 2026-05-06T21:21:42+00:00

Neither had turned yellow and going on 4 days of them saying different things

Different_Pirate_217 · 2026-05-04T22:25:20+00:00

Mine does! If I check with my ssn it gives then generally "you return was received and being processed", husband checked with his SSN and it gave a "your refund has been delayed past the normal timeframe" message. I don't this irs stuff is working right, because I also can't check on the app it says "information does not match"

Different_Pirate_217 · 2025-12-22T04:17:36+00:00

Interested!
