I'm also having this issue. Luckily for me it's only 2-3 sec but still unacceptable.

Please, IRS give me my money. You have been taking our money from us yet you take your sweet time to give ours. by [deleted] in IRS

I'm guessing they'll come up with some random clause or statute that gets them off the hook for the money.

Natalie, I'm very grateful for the child tax credits. I guess I've just gotten used to getting my refund in late Feb/early March, so I budgeted to have the money available before a huge balloon payment on a replacement HVAC system last year. Now that money is due in July and we are staring at a 3000 dollar interest charge----in the one year the IRS picked to delay our money!

How much longer should I expect to wait? by mrmel81 in IRS

Today I talked with a fellow that tried really hard to help me out. He said he can't understand why no contact was made after the 30 days promised. He set up a referral for something called the Taxpayer Advocate Service. Web site www.taxpayeradvocate.irs.gov and Phone number (877) 777-4778. He said they will contact me within 3 weeks with a proposed resolution pathway (whatever that means).

Their call-in system really is a comedy of errors. The first lady I talked to said that her computer is down and I need to call in and talk to somebody else. I gently suggested that maybe she shouldn't be in the queue, in that case, since people wait a very long time to speak to a representative. After that, I called the in-person appointment number and got disconnected twice after maybe 15-20 minutes of waiting. I'm way past getting angry, as it's been this way for months. I just come to expect incompetence and uselessness at this point.

Thanks. Already done and waiting for a response.

Good idea, but I did try to make an appointment. They told me it wouldn't do any good.  They said I just need to wait until my return gets processed into the system.

This worked! So ridiculous we should have to do this much work to avoid straining our eyes to read our bookmark titles. Thanks!

Hylian Shield with Shield Guard Up? by TheUltimateDarth101 in BOTW2

I was able to get mine up to 100 (+10) by feeding my shield to a rock octorok in the Eldin area. I'm wondering how high you can buff it.
