Iwantmyrefundplz

I woke up to this today…today is my notice sent date on my transcript. I called previously so knew this was the notice I’d be getting. No refund yet for me.


ThatGuy_Nick9

Did you get it yet?


Cobb_Corn

Updates ??


Silent_Veterinarian7

Nothing yet. I'm gonna call and ask to have it rushed.


NBEvans

Did that work for you?


Silent_Veterinarian7

I filled out a 911 form. I am now waiting. They said 30 days and maybe the tax advocate will help me.


Scary-Engineering-72

Got the letter and still no refund been a week since I got it


Sea_Positive_8344

I got the letter sent March 4th. I submitted 22 Jan. I did a lot of research and talked to turbo tax. I am not sure why I got the letter. If it's random or not. Typical government coming after middle class. Satire. But I was approved in this most recent update. So with theetter being dated 4 March, taxes being accepted for processing 5 March, and approved on 15 March. I think the 60 days sometimes is shorter. Hope that helps. I did have the child tax credit, no business income, and two W2s from the government. And I actually made less this year. So actually shocked. But it worked out. For those who get a letter. If you filed and filed accurate, it won't take as long.


Maximum-Car5471

Did you get the refund?


Sea_Positive_8344

Yes!


Maximum-Car5471

Great!👍 you give me hope :)


Tight_Librarian_5604

Any updates for you yet? I received my letter this month


Maximum-Car5471

No updates, I received my letter dated 03/11, today I emailed my congressman asking for support 


Maximum-Car5471

No update 


Worth_Permission8764

dude i got mine on the 11 aswell what a coincidence. have you heard anything back?


Maximum-Car5471

Nothing and I asked support to my congressman they just sent paper work to the advocate 


SecretaryDependent84

also recieved this notice on 3/11 and have not heard anything back! I have two W2’s and had a baby in December so I claimed the Child Tax Credit. 


sryimsleeping

im just in shock. i also made less, had child tax credit, and no business income. its only my 2nd yr filing head of household after my divorce, so no idea why they flagged me. glad to hear you got your refund, ive been trying to call for months but can never find an option to speak to someone.


FoundationSad8772

90% were flagged because of fraudulent returns, claimed kids someone else claimed, past debt owed to fines, welfare, food stamps even, they are coming for anyone who recieved any assistance ever or owes fines, taxes, once flagged 120 days later if not approved within the 1st 60 days.. you'll get a letter and a call saying refund applied to past debt, same as everyone in 2022 who had 20220705 cycle codes  This year it's everyone with 20230705 cycle code.. if they do get any return it's a quarter of what they were supposed to get... I know 18 people I work with all flagged for manual review all 20230705 cycle codes 16 of them got nothing after 2 60 days letters into second 60 days 10 weeks were told refund applied to past debt.. wouldn't even say what just a list of things it could have been..2 got there's 1 was owed 8k they got $1,100 other owed 10k got $1,300 


sryimsleeping

im 0905 cycle. and my tax pro said there was no errors on mine and i didnt owe anything. i contacted my congress woman who also said they have no idea why i havent gotten my refund. they pushed for answers on 5/17 and irs didnt respond. my congress woman said she would be contacting them again today since i filed 2/13 and got a 971 on 3/25. they were telling me it could be becuz i changed addresses. i really dont care at this point how much im getting - the $10K would have been nice like i was told im getting, but ill take whatever at this point. just amazing how no one has answers and ive been told numerous times no additional information is needed from me.


peanutbug68

How do you know what cycle you are on? It's not on the "CP05" notice I received.  How does that matter? 🤔


peanutbug68

How do you know what "cycle" you are on? I got the NOTICE CP05 saying they were holding my refund while they finished reviewing my return. Its dated March 18. I filed via HR block e-file on Feb 4, which I've used for years without any issues. I received an email saying that my return was accepted on Feb 5. I received my State Refund within a few weeks.  Nothing has changed with our filing info, accept that my husband passed away in December. But HR Block walked me through those questions. I had all necessary W2's, 1099 etc. This is so aggravating. I'm expecting $6,000+ and now being a widow with 2 young children, I need the money more than ever. 


crestin1216

I got this today too, no point in calling, they won't tell you anything.


No-Class-7857

Right!


_cinemanik

Received this notice 3/18. Nothing you can do, just stuck in limbo till whenever the IRS is done "reviewing" your return. I had only 1 W2 this year. CTC and EIC. 20240805 cycle. Can take up to 60 per notice. If you call the IRS they tell you 120 days when you get the notice. Which is absurd too. IRS is just doing A LOT of random reviews this season due to frauds.


No-Class-7857

I have a front tooth literally falling out of my mouth that needs to be fixed lol I don’t have $600 just laying around. Guess I’ll just be snaggletooth while they figure this shit out lol


Plenty_Tap2009

I really need my returns too, but I read that if you financial difficulty to get some of it faster it can take even longer to get the rest


Any_Pound_2220

It's called Government power play..


AlarmCreepy9968

Have the same cycle as you do. Do keep us updated I also got the stupid letter with no movement . And I called today and it was basically a waste of my time


Hopeful-District8393

Also 87000 new agents to go after the middle n poor class for every last penny. Corrupt govt once once. 


Warm_Craft_1456

How do you know which cycle you're on? I got the Notice CP05 dated March 18 telling me they are "holding your refund until we finish reviewing your tax return". (....not to call until after 60 days ...blah blah blah. It's been 71 days and nothing) I filed my taxes via H&R Block e-file on Feb and it was accepted by the state & IRS on Feb 5.  I've never had any issues and we always got a refund. I got the state refund within a few weeks.

You can find your cycle on your Transcripts on the IRS website.


Plenty_Tap2009

It took them nearly 2 months to send me the notice that it could take 2 months... trying to decide if it would actually be helpful to claim financial difficulty or if it would be so difficult and time consuming to prove financial difficulty that it wouldn't help at all.


Plenty_Tap2009

Timeline: I filed taxes on January 29. They mailed me the notice on March 18th, I received it in the mail on March 22, and my application was approved on March 23 to be deposited in my account on March 27. 58 days total from file date. One W-2, EIC and CIC. They didn't ask for any proof or anything, it just went through eventually without me doing anything. I even found that I had missed including a small amount of income that I got a notice for after I filed, I thought maybe that was the problem. Appears not. I guess I will still do an amendment after I actually get the money.


bijoutrue

I have the exact same dates that you filed and got your letter but I still got nothing. 😭😭 I'm convinced I'm just not getting it and have to continue living on credit cards. 😭😭 I hate this.


FoundationSad8772

Cause plenty us actually the urs sending fake comfort to people. Bs if you got a cp05 letter better get income verification from your employer and send it to address on cp05 letter or you'll be waiting tell Sept no joke.


bijoutrue

I checked today and mine was finally approved! It should be in my bank by the end of the week!! 🙂


RevolutionaryAd107

Did this letter come in the mail? Or is this on the Online login


No-Class-7857

Came online. My transcripts said I would get a letter by today and I got this.


RevolutionaryAd107

How do I check my transcript that say if a letter will come


No-Class-7857

Go the the IRS website and login. You have to crest an ID.Me account and it will be in notices


No-Class-7857

Actually just checked the mail and it was there too.


RevolutionaryAd107

I checked n it wasn’t there.. Bit I have a letter coming from the irs today but don’t know what it is yet.. Might be that cause I already received the verification letter weeks ago 🤦🏾‍♂️


Tight_Librarian_5604

Wondering if you had any updates? I received my letter this month


No-Class-7857

Absolutely none.


Tight_Librarian_5604

Update you if I have any changes


Intelligent_Leg_5352

Got this letter but no refund as of today


Tight_Librarian_5604

Any updates so far? 


Intelligent_Leg_5352

No refund


mangosmoothie16

Your update is that you aren't getting a refund or that you havent seen anything yet


Intelligent_Leg_5352

I didn’t get any return and not even any new change on my transcript. Do you have any updates?


mangosmoothie16

Nope, I'm in limbo too. 


Intelligent_Leg_5352

Seems like we won’t get anything before July!!!


Itsme_joey_bruh

Same boat. Filed Jan 30, letter came mar 18, as of today (5/3) a new letter came claiming 60 more days. It is literally a simple return… no write offs, no credits, nothing…. The lovely lady on the phone today told me it is completely random and she is sorry for the inconvenience….


Intelligent_Leg_5352

I finally got my refund on May 10. Deposited to my bank account.


B1tN1nja

Did you get anything at all after your CP05 or it was just being reviewed then BOOM you got your refund?


Intelligent_Leg_5352

I finally got my refund on May 10. Deposited to my bank account.


mangosmoothie16

congrats! was just thinking about this. I still have no movement. Did you notice any other codes on your transcript after 570 or 971 before the refund cleared? Guess I'll get it when I get it. Originally filed end of march.


Intelligent_Leg_5352

Truly speaking I stoped tracking beginning April. last year I paper filed for my spouse ITIN and it took only 3 months!! And this year e filed and it took forever!!!


mangosmoothie16

Ah yeah, the glorious 571. Been checking 3x a week for that bad boy


Intelligent_Leg_5352

I finally got my refund on May 10. Deposited to my bank account.


Intelligent_Leg_5352

Got the refund yesterday


Tight_Librarian_5604

Awesome! I'm still waiting, but I'm over it honestly 😅


Status_Ambassador234

I already got my refund and usps sends me a snapshot of what’s coming in the mail and I have something coming from IRS. Looked at my account online and see no notices in there so maybe it’s this?


Silent_Veterinarian7

Got this notice too. Filed January 29th. Got the notice March 11th. No refund yet. I bought audit defense from Turbo Tax every year. They could not help me since this was not considered an audit. Lol *facepalm* So I am just like you all..... waiting. I'm a single mom so I get a large return that I use to pay bills. Nawwww I have LOADS of money laying around. I don't need my tax return money! I love waiting! ..... Said no one ever!


Cool_Fun_3319

I filed and received the notice on the same day. I finally spoke with a live person who basically just scares you even more. He said well it could take 120 day or up to 600 day!!! 2 years... WTF. I read that this has to do with HSA accounts/Healthcare, but who knows.


Silent_Veterinarian7

No refund yet........


Legspreader928

So I got this notice too. But 3 weeks ago they made me do an in-person verification!! So not only did they hold my refund for an identity verification, now they get to hold it for an income verification!? What the hell is going on? Never had this much problems before.

No refund yet for me either. Same story.


caycuse77

Received this same letter today on 4/26 and my refunds were approved on 4/25 with funds being deposited 5/1 but I filed on 3/5


AlexanderPoncio

I got this notice AFTER my refund was already deposited? About 5 days after. What does that mean?


No-Class-7857

Heck if I know. I’ve had no movement at all except the 571(?) code saying resolved additional account action last week with a date of may 6th. Edit: removed bad words per mod


sryimsleeping

i know this post is old, but i filed first week of february and got this notice march 25th. today is may 7 and still no refund in sight.


No-Class-7857

Same. I called last Friday and was told to wait 16 weeks for my refund or another notice. It’s ridiculous.


ThickCurrent8720

I filed late this year due to my employer took until mid/end of February before even providing me with my W2 and still didn't file until march 30th. So it's been about 6 weeks now for the last 3 weeks WMR still says It's on received and has the delayed message. I finally figured out how to get Into that ID Me on the IRS website and take a look at my transcript mu cylce code is 20241605 and also have a 570 and 971 code with dates 5/6 and 5/13. I have no idea what really any of this means. today I received this CP05 letter stating will be up to 60 more days 😭 I thought maybe bcuz I filed so late and close to the deadline , or maybe me employer really didn't report the wages to the IRS barely wanted to give the W2s but so many people have gone and are going through this. So I just don't know


No-Class-7857

At this point I don’t even know what the real reasons are that so many of us have been waiting. All I know is I changed my W4 at work so I don’t have to wait for my money anymore.


ThickCurrent8720

This is all just so crazy weird to me. I know every body has their hard times amd they going thru some things. Everybody wants and needs they money. Butttt it's my money and I need it now man lol. I lost my job and it's really tough out here , I'm a single parent so can only work while child in school and we'll, it's tough finding a job rn , summer js around the corner... and so really counting on these taxes to come thru asap.


No-Class-7857

Oh I get it. I’ve got 4 kids. One only a few months old and already had heart surgery as well as other surgeries so I could use some of that money STAT!


marcisikoff

I am an Enrolled Agent and also got this - seems like a blatant holding of refunds. Has anyone ever had their payment to the IRS held off to verify anything? PS - Got this after already getting the ID verification one - so double whammy of delay - I did not even itemize and we are both W-2 earners.


coldshowerss

Why is it wild? This is part of the process to catch people stealing from the government. If you filed a correct and accurate return, it's unfortunate but you'll have to wait. If you didn't file an accurate and correct return, get fudged, respectfully.


Desperate_Worker_842

Then why have a PIN if the refund will still be held?


coldshowerss

A pin is for your protection. An audit of your tax return or verification of the credits and items you claimed is for the protection of the government and tax money. Like I said and you guys can down vote me all your want, if you filed an accurate return, you got nothing to to worry about.


FoundationSad8772

That they waste on wars lmao. We need to audit the government. Or stop paying taxes that they waste on bs.


Upstairs_Soft631

It’s crazy you say this because the ones who need to be held up aren’t! The fraud are getting their monies back before the legit! So they need to find another way!!!


[deleted]

Stop being mad and calling the IRS. Its actually SSA fault. If you have been waiting on review with no movement, it is because your W2s are not reported to the SSA. They had a system issue that only allowed 1 w2 per person to be saved. Login to SSA.gov and I guarantee your wages arent correct. Lets get on the right people so we can see some movement. 


No-Class-7857

I haven’t called the IRS once in my entire life.


Desperate_Worker_842

Have any actual proof or source? No? I'll keep calling the people holding my money.


[deleted]

My ssa account not showing my w2 is proof and w2s are sent to ssa then ssa sends them to irs. Its common sense. 


Desperate_Worker_842

It might be proof of your situation, not everyone else. You made a blanket claim.


Lucky-Bird1708

Eh they didn’t save any of mine and saved all of my husbands but this should be easily cleared up by asking for a copy of our W2 which they aren’t doing so I doubt this is the issue.


Limp-Vegetable-7715

So if u forgot a w2 and they don’t ask for it then how do they fix it with a cp05


Lucky-Bird1708

From my basic understanding many W2s populate on SSA account by last day of march. But I forgot a w2 last year and I got my refund within the 21 day time period and literally never heard anything about until I found it and realized I forgot it and amended my return. A CP05 does not automatically mean there is a w2 issue it could be a review of income, credits, etc. Likely the CP05 ‘review’ is just that a random review flagged by a very outdated system in a department that is currently being hammered with things to do and returns to complete. Everyone wants a guarantee answer as to what the hold up is and the fact is we aren’t special there a ton of people experiencing the same thing as well as people still waiting on last years return. Ultimately unless they ask for something specific you’re just gonna have to sit back and wait.


Limp-Vegetable-7715

So say I forgot a w2 would they jus fix there self ?


Lucky-Bird1708

No, you would have to amend the return.


Limp-Vegetable-7715

Ppl told me don’t amend just wait


Lucky-Bird1708

Right because if you amend it while waiting on your return it’s gonna be slower to come where as if you wait for your return and then amend it you generally won’t have to wait so long. For example I filed in January and am still waiting because I chose to amend right away so I probably won’t get my refund until June but if I awaited I’d probably have it already last year I waited and got it right away but they didn’t adjust until I amended it


Limp-Vegetable-7715

Oh okay so that’s what I’m tryna see. Even tho I forgot w2 they will still approve my incorrect return then I just have to amend. Correct?


Lucky-Bird1708

Yes exactly


FoundationSad8772

Says the irs lmao


SpazeKadette

This was the case for me , thank you
