Wonder if everyone is getting a check this year? I prefer direct deposit. Called yesterday still saying I’m listed for direct deposit… so question is does everyone get checks?

I filed 2/4 got my federal back 2/26 but still waiting on state. I didnt get my dc back last year due to me filing self employed and my business not being registered well this year it is and I’m still waiting -_-
-
Thanks for the update Pink. I have the 25 day message. I was accepted on 2/20, so I guess I’ll just have to wait. Normally the deposit just shows up in my account out of nowhere lol.
-
Pink
I got a identity verification letter in the mail today. I went online with the pin provided and it mentions waiting 6 weeks. Ugh. I think its because I moved.
-
Pink
Still no update. The 25 day message is still there. Filed on 1-28-20. Accepted 1-29-20. My 25 days is almost up. If anything like last year they will update it on the 24th and a half day loll.

It feels like forever! I have been waiting since I filed on 1/28 accepted same day. WEbsite still has 25 business days BS… I usually get a check every year. DC taking tooooo long. If I call can they give any info on a date?

Took my documents in person to the OTR tax office yesterday. God willing I will get my refund at the lastest by next week. They say there is no backlog. They are consistently working on returns. So its whenever they get to yours.

Took my docunents in perdon to OTR Tax office yesterday. Waited 2 hours to see a representative. Only took 3 minutes to review my documents. She said to call or check status by Monday. There is no backlog they work on them when they get to my return. So God willing I will get my refund before or no later than next week.
-
GiveMeMyMoney
@Candy E Go on Facebook and instant message them. That’s how I got in contact with them. They called me a few hours later put your first and last name and your number and they will call you.

Filled my return on 1/31–it was finally processed yesterday.
After repeatedly, frustratingly calling the OTR–and receiving messages of ‘wait a week…a few days…25 days…just a bit longer’ for the past month, I randomly sent a message to the OTR through mytaxdc.gov regarding the status of my submission. See below for the response I received an hour later:
Received: Monday, Mar 18, 2019 3:35:34 PM
Subject: RE: Status of Tax ReturnThank you for contacting e-Services.
Your refund has been approved, please allow 3-5 business days from today to receive it in your bank account.
Regards,
————————————-Good luck!

@givememymoney I definitely understand. I did it last Monday and it was approved by last Friday. I had to get it mailed because of a new address but it shouldn’t take long. Hoping I see it by Wednesday.
-
GiveMeMyMoney
@Bravo same here filed 1/31 just got the id verify passcode today so hopefully, I get it this week. When did you do yours do you remember which day? I Don’t mean to pry I’m just trying to get an idea of when I’ll get my money seeing as though we waited sooooo long this year!
-
Candy E.
I’ve been trying to call DC OTR since this morning and I keep getting this recording that all lines are busy try back later.
Is this for real? I have never experienced this before with any government agency. They don’t even give you an option of dialing an extension. -
Bravo
@givememymoney I filed on 1/31 then had to do an identity verification quiz last week. According to previous posts, the amount going to 0 means it’s been sent. No deposit yet though.
-
GiveMeMyMoney
@Bravo when did you file?
-
Bravo
My balance when I log in has gone to 0 as opposed to showing my refund amount. Does this mean it is about to be deposited?

After 25 Business Days DC just sent me a letter adking for documents for my EIC which is crazy because I didn’t make any money. The letter was written on March 8th just received today and tgey are giving me to Marvh 23rd to comply. I was told I can bri g documents in person insyead of mail. All they could say was they wete sorry it took so long. Yeah right you only had my return since Feb 8th.
-
Paul P.
I was accepted 1/31 and still nothing. Very annoying
-
Candy E.
Do anyone know what’s going on with DC and the tax refunds? This is ridiculous!!!! I’ve been waiting since February 6 when t was accepted. Their system tells me to wait and check back in 10 days. Then I saw something about waiting 25 days. I even gave them a day for the snow day we were closed and e holiday. How long must I wait now?
-
Queen
I been waiting Since January 25 And Still Nothing! What’s Going On??

Today is officially 25 business days and still nothing. I’ve seen folks on another forum confirm receipt of their tax refund but nothing on this side.
-
Veryfustrated
GiveMeMyMoney; unfortunately, he just got divorced so that is all the information he has. DC needs to be reported publicly for holding our monies. This is not right. 25 Business days is March 13th for me. I will let you all know if I get my refund. Has anyone received any money from DC.? We need to hear from you
-
Y Easton
Maybe we will have our state taxes by Christmas because thats how long it seems. I never experienced this ever. Im being patient and im like come on.

This Has Got To Be A Joke! Where Is Our Money
-
Kiwi
I just called again and now they saying due to there new system reviews go deeper so i said if i bring in all my supporting documents would that do anything even tho yall not requesting nothing and she said yes if you need your money now that would be your best bet 😑😑
-
GiveMeMyMoney
@Veryfustrated did he say when she filed? And was it a lot? I think the more you got back the longer they gonna hold it.
-
Kiwi
I filed 1/31 so 25 days been passed im confused.
-
Veryfustrated
Was just told by a friend his daughter got her dc tax check 2 days ago (Monday). Finally, DC has started giving refunds. They held back everyone’s refund to accrue interest off of our monies. That just isn’t right. I pray God deals with them. Alot of people needed there money during these troubled times.
-
Y Easton
I spoke with. A representative yesterday and she told me I had to wait 25 Business days. Im like what? I never waited this long before.
-
Queen
I talked to a rep today! They said they started processing feb 25 and will won’t see our money until April! Now who lying???
-
Lulu f.
Just got off the phone with the rep. She said that refunds are finally being “kicked out this week”. It seems as if you have to wait the entire 25 BUSINESS DAYS. Before they will issue a refund. Hopefully, she was telling me the truth. Hopefully we’ll start to see movement this week.
-
Veryfustrated
I filed Feb 6th. DC told me 14 business days. Ladt week called and it changed to 25 business days but the person said don’t quote me on that. What does that mean. Its over 30 days. Its March got my Fed in exactly 21 days with an EIC. Has anyone received DC tax yet?
-

Mines been processing since 2/1/2019 and just this week I was told that they have to process everyone’s taxes for 4-6 weeks before they can start issuing return 😡😡😡 my 4 weeks was yesterday and is still saying processing check basin 7-10 business days 🤦🏽♀️ I haven’t received any notices in the mail either
-
T. McGinnis Frazier
They are full of it. Went thru the path act and got my fed refund and still processing for DC.
-

Nothing been processing since January 25
-
Tiffany
Nope. No update, still processing since February 1st. I haven’t received any notices in the mail.
-
Bravo
Did anyone receive their refund today?
-
Jade
Thanks for the update about DC not processing refunds until 3-1. And I agree that their WMR message should just say so!
-
Lulu f.
Wow DC! Why have a message that says check back 7-10 days, they know that’s inaccurate. If they communicated better we wouldn’t have to call and wonder. It also doesn’t help when the DC OTR reps just want to get you off the phone. Shame on them this year!
-

My dd for my federal is 2/27 filed 1/31 called DCmultiple times and was told finally today they are not processing no refunds until 3/1 😑
-

-

Still haven’t received my DC tax refund. Already got federal. Anybody know what’s going on with DC this year?
-
Y Easton
I got a DDD for my federal for 2/27/2019. Then an offset omg. This years sucks. Still no State refund. What is going on? Im going to call on Monday. I patiently waited now im like come on.

Nikco116
Talk to a service agents at the office of tax and revenue’s today and was told it can take up to four weeks to process first was told its up to 14 days like the website says then told three weeks now 4 to 6 weeks for processing in dc
-
Y Easton
Still waiting. It still says processing check back 7- 10 business days. It’s been way past that and no change. What is going on. Maybe it will never change like last year. It stayed processing and they deposited my refund on 2/21/ 2018. So hoping for the best!
-
Jade
Been waiting for DC to deposit my refund since January 28. The tax portal shows my refund amount in green. As already noted, once the refund amount shows 0, they have sent the direct deposit.
-
Lulu f.
Nothing yet for me. I created an account on DC OTR portal. Shows processed and refund amount in green. No letters have been sent out. After looking at prior years, when the balance shows $0 means refund has been sent. I recommend that everyone creates an account to make sure you have no letters coming in the mail. Can you all provide updates of what you see?
-
Y Easton
As of now still Nothing! How long does it take?
I filed 1/30 and still stuck processing. I probably will get my federal back first this year. Both are saying processing. I filed my federal on 1/28. We got a winter storm coming hurry up! -
Y Easton
Filed on 2/1/2019 and still nothing. Wmr still stuck saying being processed 7- 10 days. This is crazy. I guess they will be dragging their feet again this year like last year. I got dd on the 22 for 2018 both state and federal came same day. SMH

-

I received my DC refund without me even knowing, and yes I still can not pull it up online. I randomly checked my card yesterday after a KFC purchase and it was on there. It was waaaay lower then expected, with no offsets to my knowledge, but it was on there.
-
So far Have not seen or heard of a person with a refund or eWhat a shame! Let’s see if we have some movement this coming week…

Called again today. DC is really crazy. Everything is done but they are not releasing before 14 BUSINESS days…So I was told to call after the 19th…People who filed 2/29 should see something this week. Please advise if you fall in this category so we can be hopeful…

Jay
Any update?

So today I called AGAIN. I can see my return has been processed on the website since 2/5 (filed 2/3 accepted 2/4). But have been said that nothing will be sent out before 14 BUSINESS days for everyone. They just keep the money for whatever reasons even when you, even when it’s ready…pffff

Has anyone received any word on their 2016 DC State Tax refund? We had to mail ours in this year. I know they received mine but I’m just wondering how long it’ll be until it’s at least processed.
-
Leslie Moore
Anyone get their DC tax refund yet? I filed on 2/2/2015. When I called the rep said that it was a good thing I did because my return would have just kept sitting there. The rep said she would submit my refund for approval but that it will take another 2-3 weeks!!!
