Where's my refund? IRS can't tell you right now
The Internal Revenue Service said Wednesday that its tool that lets people check on the status of their refunds is not currently working.
“We’re having some technical difficulties right now but expect to have this resolved soon. We apologize for the inconvenience,” the IRS said in statement posted to its website midday Wednesday.
An IRS spokeswoman told msnbc.com Wednesday that the agency is working hard to fix the problem but didn’t know exactly when it would be resolved.
However, she said the glitch only is affecting whether people can track their refunds. The refunds are still being processed normally.
This is the second time in a week the IRS has had problems with the Where’s My Refund tool. Last Friday, it posted a notice acknowledging that some taxpayers who filed electronically could not find their information on the Where’s My Refund tool. The spokeswoman said that issue has since been resolved.
DH and I are wolrd-famous procrastinators! We wait until...well, last year, it was the first/second week in April.... I got my third baby coming at the end of summer and want to get a large SUV. Oh well, long as we get it before aug-sept., i suppose!
It isn't the only thing not working. Our refund was a week late because of some type of toll they out in to prevent people from identity theft and thus getting someone else's refund. I also cannot link my refund to my FAFSA because my husbands name is the first one on the tax paperwork. OS I now have to request that copies of our tax papers from the IRS be sent to me because the school will not take our H and R Block papers. I just hope I actually get them.
"Obama told the local affiliate that he has made using the internet more effective so if someone needs a government service, "they don’t have to navigate through 50 websites, they can go to one website. So on those fronts we’ve done a lot. We’ve made a lot of progress."
Change you can believe in.....
I'm sue most people remember when you just waited for the check to come in the mail...
When I got the email 2 days ago that it wasn't working it couldn't show me where it was.
Quoting rocketracer:
