I still did not get my tax refund from 2018.

Posted on October 7, 2019 by admin • 1 Comment

Q) I still did not get my tax refund from 2018. Why is it so hard to get my tax back? Whenever I call they just told me to wait and wait. Please I need urgent help.

A) According to the IRS – Some tax returns take longer to process than others for many reasons, including when a return:

Includes errors
Is incomplete
Is affected by identity theft or fraud
Includes a claim filed for an Earned Income Tax Credit or an Additional Child Tax Credit. See Q&A below.
Includes a Form 8379, Injured Spouse Allocation, which could take up to 14 weeks to process
Needs further review in general

We will contact you by mail when we need more information to process your return. https://www.irs.gov/refunds/tax-season-refund-frequently-asked-questions

It’s RIDICULOUS that it’s darn near impossible to schedule an appointment with them by dialing the appointment line phone number. (1) When the call goes through, I’ve left messages and my number for someone to call me back, but no one ever does (2) The majority of the time, a recording comes on, claiming I need to call back later or the next day, to which I get the SAME RECORDED MESSAGE. From my experience in the army as a base tax center non-commissioned officer-in-charge and trained tax preparer, this is NOT proper customer service.
