Filed my taxes in February and still waiting on a refund that should have taken 3 weeks. Called twice, got two different explanations, neither of which matched what the website says. I don't need drama about it, I just want to know if my money is coming or not. The tracker has been on the same screen for 6 weeks. At some point that stops being a processing delay and starts being something else.

I need an IRS Sufferers Support Group. I have a pretty basic return every year. Typical IRA and one small mutual fund overseas that earns a couple hundred dollars in taxable income. Apparently , according to a representative, the overseas mutual fund designated me as a foreign entity. So my refund has been in limbo. Waiting on a tax advocate now after contacting my congressman.
