Update for everyone that is waiting on their refund?
Here's the company memo.
These issues and delays are related directly to a new fraud detection and prevention filtration system holding more refunds than anticipated and more returns are being impacted than originally projected by IRS.
The IRS has worked to correct this error and so they now believe refund timing, for all refunds will be on the following schedule:
•Select returns were impacted on the very first day of processing beginning on 1/17/2012.
•Refunds from that first day which were expected on 1/23/2012 may not have funded yet.
•Updated information indicates affected returns filed on:
•1/17/2012 are expected to fund on 1/30/2012.
•1/18/2012 are anticipated to fund on 1/31/2012.
•1/19/2012 are anticipated to fund on 2/1/2012.
•1/20/2012 are anticipated to fund on 2/2/2012.
•1/21/2012 are anticipated to fund on 2/3/2012.
I would say accepted on the dates above. I also hope this is true. A great site to look at is www.igotmyrefund.com

Thanks! I filed on 1/19 and was told by IRS rep I should have DD on 2/1 but WMR says 2/7 so I wasn't sure. I hope this is true.

That is what H & R Block told me this morning... Is this an official letter from the IRS?

Great! Does this mean refunds that were ACCEPTED on those dates, or just filed on those dates? Hopefully, this pans out for everyone. We have all been waiting. We need our money!!!
