📣📣Taxpayers who have checked the “Where’s My Refund” tool on the IRS website have probably seen a message that says, “Your return is being processed.” In some cases, this message might stay on there for weeks or even months.

The message might be annoying if it keeps popping up over and over again, but it actually carries good news. That’s because it means the IRS “got your tax return, so you don’t have to sweat that there was an issue with them receiving it,” Howard Samuels, a certified public accountant at New Jersey-based Samuels & Associates, told the Acorns.

Historically, the IRS has been able to process most returns and issue refunds within 21 calendar days of receiving the return. But the agency has run into a massive backlog since the beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic, caused by a combination of staff shortages and more complex returns that include federal stimulus payment income. The IRS recently reassigned 1,200 employees to answer calls and help with the backlog. It said in a statement last month that it expects to have most refunds disbursed within 21 days this tax season. Even so, don’t be surprised if your refund is delayed.

“At this point I would say sit tight for at least four to six weeks,” Samuels said. “After that, you may want to call the IRS to find out what’s going on.”

If you suspect that your refund is delayed longer than usual, you should contact the IRS 1-800-829-1040. Just be sure to do so at the right time. Last year, taxpayers who contacted the agency with tax return questions had only a 1 in 9 chance of being answered, Acorns noted, citing a report from the Taxpayer Advocate Service. Those who did get through had average wait times of 23 minutes before being connected to a customer service agent. “Your best bet is to call first thing in the morning as soon as the IRS opens at 7 a.m. ET,” Samuels said. “I’ve also heard some people have luck when they call later in the day around 6 p.m. or 6:30 p.m. [Eastern] right before the IRS closes at 7 p.m.”

Another thing to keep in mind: The IRS is obligated to pay interest on refunds that have run into excessive delays. If you don’t receive a refund within 45 days of this year’s April 18 filing deadline — which would be June 2 — the IRS will owe you interest on the refund.

From the IRS: Important information regarding refunds, by law, the IRS cannot issue refunds claiming the Earned Income Tax Credit (EITC) and the Additional Child Tax Credit (ACTC) before mid-February.
While the IRS will process those returns when received, it cannot issue related refunds before mid-February. The IRS expects the earliest EITC/ACTC related refunds to be available in taxpayer bank accounts or on debit cards starting the first week of March if they chose direct deposit and there are no other issues with the tax return. Where’s My Refund should start showing updates on or after Feb. 19, 2022.

IMPORTANT information regarding the monthly Child Tax Credit payments and the 3rd Stimulus payments that were received in 2021!!!!

The IRS encourages everyone to have all the information you need in hand to make sure you file a complete and accurate return. Having an accurate tax return can avoid processing delays, refund delays and later IRS notices. This is especially important for people who received advance Child Tax Credit payments or Economic Impact Payments (3rd stimulus payment) in 2021; we will need the amounts of these payments to be able to prepare your tax return. The IRS is mailing special letters to recipients.

The IRS started sending Letter 6419, 2021 advance Child Tax Credit, in late December 2021 and continues to do so into January. The letter contains important information that can help ensure the return is accurate.

The IRS will begin issuing Letter 6475, Your Third Economic Impact Payment, to individuals who received a third payment in 2021 in late January.

Please KEEP these letters and bring them in with you when you file your tax return. We will need the accurate information regarding these payments to avoid a lengthy delay in your refund. Don't panic or fret, if for some reason you didn't receive this letter or keep it, you can access this information on your online account at IRS.gov/account

Get instructions on your online account. Review the amount you owe, balance for each tax year and payment history.

‼️‼️‼️ These Child Tax Credits are for your 2021 tax return!!! So you would only get half of the credit on your tax return if you receive the payments from July-Dec!! If an eligible taxpayer does not want to receive the 2021 Child Tax Credit in advance, they will have the opportunity to decline those payments and receive the full benefit when they file their 2021 tax returns next year. Once they have it set up, you will be able to opt out on the IRS website. ‼️‼️‼️

The Internal Revenue Service has released more information about the Child Tax Credit changes that will see parents getting between $300 and $350 a month starting this summer.
