I'm a California resident that filed the simplest possible (single, no claims, no deducations, don't owe irs anything) completely clean federal income tax return for my 2013 wages electronically and exactly as reported on official W-2 form from my sole employer for that year and have been delayed over 3mo in receiving my money. Timeline;
Jan 31st - Electronically filed through TaxAct
Feb 5th - Accepted by IRS (no status shown via wheres my refund tool)
Feb 24th - Letter received claiming a review is needed, allow up to 60 days for response
April 25th - I reached IRS since 60 days have passed and no response via phone, email or mail. I am told to send in supporting documentation and allow up to 45 days.
April 26th - I write a letter, provide my official federal copy of w-2 form, copy of my return and employer contact info and certify mail it to address given over phone
May 2nd - I call back to see if response is given and lady says she is putting a referral to that department.
May 10th - Still can't see a status posted on the Where's my refund tool and I'm sure as heck if I call i'll be told to wait 45 days and i probably shouldn't expect a response from them or money any sooner as you can see how they ignored me in the first place.
Has anyone else had this issue and is there anything else i should do to get MY money..?
Thanks
