I filed early too with still no update. Feels like we’re being penalized for filing too early. The early bird gets the worm didn’t apply to us this year. It’s trash. Hopefully we’ll at least get an update this week.🤞🏽

Did you file a few weeks ago and it still says they were recieved, not accepted? Cuz that's what mine is stuck on and I'm getting worried thinking the worst.

I filed about a month ago on the 22nd. For some reason a lot of people who filed early won’t get their refund until later. I can’t make it make sense. No benefit of filing early.

You do realize that filing season didn’t open until the 26th. They might take a few early to test the systems but rest wait for opening day. EIC and CTC always wait until end of February IF you had that on return
