Ask Terry Questions Still waiting for a tax return

Still waiting for a tax return

By Terry Savage on October 04, 2021 | Wild Card

So my daughter was doing her taxes online and they flagged her and stated she needed to actually send the paperwork in to the IRS so she did that and she still waiting for her tax return. We tried calling and they won’t allow you to speak with an actual representative. They say you should’ve had your taxes six weeks after. Which it’s been way longer than six weeks. So what is it that I can do to find out what’s going on with her taxes?

Terry Says

Well, six weeks isn’t a long time (and I’m assuming she is awaiting a refund). Many people are waiting 6 months to get refunds.
But if you’re worried about whether they actually RECEIVED the return, here’s a link to the IRS Where’s My Refund site. She can check on her status there.
