Due to problems at the IRS…
Due to problems at the IRS, the first batch of refunds to be released by the IRS under its “weekly” schedule is MUCH smaller than expected. According to sources, new filters at the IRS have caused over half of all refunds to be unexpectedly withheld nationwide. Sources indicate that approximately 60-70% of the refunds nationwide that were expected to be released by the IRS were not released by the IRS.
This is a nationwide problem at the IRS. This problem effects every tax preparer across the country equally. Taxpayers who were expecting a refund this week, but did not receive one, should visit the Where’s My Refund link at IRS.gov for more information on when the IRS will release their refund. We have been told that the affected refunds should experience a one week delay from when they were expected. We will post more information here if new information becomes available.
Refund Status
The IRS has opened its filing season successfully this month, and refunds have started going out to many taxpayers. As with the start of any tax season, there are system validations that occur requiring some fine-tuning of our systems. As part of this, some taxpayers will receive refunds approximately one week later than initial projections they may have received, but these are still in line with historical refund delivery times.
The IRS reminds taxpayers that refund time frames provided by “Where’s My Refund” and tax providers are projected time frames and are subject to revision. Many different factors can affect the timing of the refund after the IRS receives the return for processing. The IRS apologizes for any inconvenience caused by the revised refund dates.
When the IRS announced the opening of the 2012 filing season, it advised taxpayers who electronically file and select direct deposit that they could see their refunds in as few as 10 days and 90 percent of refunds are provided within 21 days. Some taxpayers are getting refunds much faster, but at this time taxpayers should expect refunds to be issued as indicated in the original IRS guidelines.
The one-week delay for some refunds relates to fine-tuning IRS systems to adjust for new safeguards put in place this tax season to provide stronger protection against refund fraud. The IRS is providing additional screening for fraud this year before issuing refunds, but the vast majority of taxpayers can still continue to expect to receive their refunds in a timely fashion.
