Anyone having a delay in their tax refund? :/

I filed my taxes with my Mother using TurboTax  on  February 2nd but my mother  accidentally hadn't put my pin the IRS sent me due to some unknown Thief in 2013 somehow getting a hold of my tax information and filing under my name and stealing what would have been my money. When I filed for real, my Tax preparer called me and told me someone already filed under my name and got my refund. I was pissed. I had to sign paperwork swearing I was the victim of Identity theft and wasn't the one who filed the first time. It took me six months to get my refund check. I was PISSED!

IRS now sends me a Pin every year for tax filing. I got an Email saying my Tax filing was rejected and I was told it was missing a Pin. I put the Pin and got a message saying something like,"Error fixed. It showed me my refund and my Bank Account information. I saw something like,"Sign and E-file, but I didn't properly do it. About two week later, I got a call from TurboTax. I assumed it would be something like,"Your tax refund is on its way in about one more week. " Instead, I was informed my Tax filing was rejected.

I was baffled as I put in the Pin. I had to put the Pin again and ACTUALLY sign and E-file (I assumed the tax filing went through when I saw my Bank account details and vmy Refund amount. This was on Wednesday, February 16th when I FINALLY did it the right way all the way. I assumed I would be getting my refund by March 9th.

March 9th rolled around and I still didn't have my refund. I went to IRS Website to inquire about my Tax Refund and I got the message that my tax refund was delayed. It didn't even tell me when I should expect my Tax Refund. I went to Google and a LOT of People have their Tax Refund delayed and got the SAME message from the IRS Website. There was something written like,"Being told your Tax Refund is delayed with no set date is no comfort  for you when you're desperately needing the refund check to be deposited in your Bank Account". As of today, March 14th, I still have not received my Tax Refund check. 🧐

Hmm. My Bad. I assumed that the majority of Posters were from the U.S....

I got my refund in about a week but I also filed on the first day. I don't ever want to get caught up in somebody fraudulently filing before me. I feel sorry you. It's hard to get answers out of the IRS. And they said expect delays in refunds. Don't remember the reason.

I felt pretty good about my taxes, got a little back from the feds and paid a little to the state. I cleared $20 in the end. It's nice to get a big check back but they don't pay any interest on holding my money up for a year.

No you didn't! I love the reference to IRS song by Guns N'Roses!

Whew, that could have been a nightmare.

This is the first year I didn't help my daughter do her taxes. She got married and he's self employed. Not touching that tax return. You married a tax nightmare kid.

Actually, I received my Tax Refund yesterday! I was lucky I got the refund 5 days earlier than the IRS said I would be getting it!
