Question

I still have Reference Code 1301 It looks like another week of delay for me I filed 1/19 and was accepted 1/20 and I have called the IRS about 10 different times last Thursday I was I would probally have my refund this, but it does not look like that is going to happen

Answer 1

Hi Robin..



You and I have been in the same boat for a while. I still have the 1301 code on the website BUT I called yesterday and they told me I was scheduled for DD on Friday. Have you called them yet, if not they should be able to tell you your exact DD date now. Good Luck... PRAYERS!

Answer 2

Yesterday the website told me feb 17th, this morning is now tells me,





We have received your tax return and it is being processed. For more information, please continue.

If you have questions or need additional information, please have the following on hand when you call:



* A copy of this page.

* A copy of your tax return.

* The Social Security Number, Filing Status, and refund amount claimed on your return.

* Tell the representative that it has been more than 6 weeks since you filed your return.



Please mention reference number 1301 to the IRS Customer Service Representative.





I am not to sure what is going on but a lot of people are having the same issue.





1301 code is only for going over 3 weeks when you e-file. I just got off the phone with the IRS I had the same problem and I was suppose to get mine on the 17th of Feb and got the 1301 code this morning she told me there was a delay in the e-filing and that it would be deposited on Friday the 20th. Since they do there deposits on Fridays.

Answer 3

My husband & I were supposed to have our return direct deposited on 2/17. This morning we check our account. Nothing. Then we logged into the "Where's my refund?" site & we have code 1301. I tried to call the IRS number given, but I wasn't able to get through. The automated message told me to call back at a later time due to high call volume. I'll try to call again later. It would make it so much easier for everyone if the IRS listed an explanation of code 1301 that was understandable.

Answer 4

I filed on 1/16 and was accepted on 1/17 and I have called too many times to count. As of yesterday, I was told that I would receive a letter in the mail. After being told that, the IRS promptly said, you are one of the lucky ones, and proceeded to hang up on me. Frustrated, I called back about an hour later and the IRS rep told me the same thing, but I was one of the lucky ones, because the letter I was getting was a CP12 letter stating that there was an overpayment on my return and my refund would be more and she gave me the new amount. She then went on to tell me that I was scheduled for DD on 2/20. I was very happy with this answer, but just to be sure, I called again early last evening and got the same answer with a DD date of 2/27 and a 2/20 mailing date for the CP12 letter. So, if it indeed goes to 2/27 that will be 6 weeks for my efile.



Good luck to everyone this year!

Answer 5

I also filed on February 1st electronically. My mom filed the same day both electronically both accepted. She got her refund this past Friday, February 13th, I still do not have my refund. We both choose direct deposit. I checked the irs website on February 9th, it gave me an error code of 8002. I called and they said an error had been corrected. I checked it again the next day, it said it had been processed and I should receive it by Feb 17th. Still no money. I checked again today and all this week, it says it is in process( not processed) and I should receive it by Feb. 24th. This is so frustrating because I need this money to pay bills and I also have a baby that is due any day now. I am going to call today and see if I can get some answers.

Answer 6

1201 All other conditions not covered by a status code conduct account analysis

1221 Refund delayed, pulled for review, within 7 cycles conduct account analysis

1301 Fact of Filing Electronic return received more than 3 weeks ago; no other information See IRM 21.4.1.3.1.2, Return Found/Not Processed.

8002 Electronic return taxpayer filed more than 3 weeks ago, failed authentication Conduct account analysis.



If you filed between Jan 29 to Feb 5, direct deposit will be sent on Feb 13 and paper check on Feb 20. Add three more days before you will have it in the bank or receive the check



If you filed between Feb 5 to Feb 12, direct deposit will be sent on Feb 20 and paper check on Feb 27.



If you filed between Feb 12 to Feb 19, direct deposit will be sent on Feb 27 and paper check on March 6. For more information, and how to find status of your refund, read http://taxipay.blogspot.com/2009/01/when-will-i-get-my-tax-refund.html

Answer 7

From the IRS web site:



1301



Fact of Filing Electronic return received more than 3 weeks ago; no other information



See IRM 21.4.1.3.1.2, Return Found/Not Processed



How is that for vague. I am in the same boat.

Answer 8

My status overnight went from You should receive your refund by feb 17th to the reference code 1301. It's just crazy and I want my refund. I efiled on 2/4 and it was accepted the same day. And now just waiting, I was going to call but I think I will wait another day to see what my status shows tomorrow morning.

Answer 9

Wow Robin, I cannot believe that you are still getting the run around on your refund. I have been reading a lot of the post and have seen you post several times. I haven't had an update on wmr because I did finally receive my refund last week after waiting 6 weeks on an e-file. I'm sorry that you have not received yours yet, you must be going flipping nuts. I hope that some thing gives for you and I hope it happens very soon.

Answer 10

I got the same issue, i filed 2/4. told me i would have it by 2/17, i know they only deposit on friday's, so i get up today and now i have a message to call with reference code 1301. They need to just release our money, its ridiculous. and of course nothing on their website saying they have had any delays



Update-waited on hold for 35min, lady asked me several questions about my 2007 return??? she then told me that it would be DD on 2/20. So i guess i wait another 2 days to see what happens

Answer 11

Robin, I am still right there with you, as of this morning still have reference code 1301, I am so sick of this, I just don't know what the heck is going on. I am with you though, did anyone out there w/refer code 1301 change this morning? I would like to know.

Answer 12

Hi Robin my stat still says 1301 but when i called last night and today i was told i will get mine deposited friday and i had a new amount i was told they update the site all day today check later

Answer 13

i filed 1/29 gov accepted 2/1 i efiled with turbo tax. same happened to me ...wheres my refund site said i should recieve it by 2-17 but nothing checked it today and now it said refernce number 1301 and to call 18008290582 xt 462 I am holding on the phone as I am typing this with the IRS. (Lovely music..hahaha) I wonder what they are going to tell me. I will post it

Answer 14

I have been having the same issue.I efiled on 01/17. I have been trying to get ahold of the IRS all day and keep getting. "We are experiencing high than normal call volumes all of our agents are busy" and then it hangs up on me. Im hoping Im as lucky as the others who were told they WILL get theirs on Friday I was told that I SHOULD receive it 02/20 when I talked to them last week so we shall see!







UPDATE:talked to IRS and they stated I have DD set for friday even though on website still has 1301 error.

Answer 15

I filed early too, refund was supposed to be directly deposited into my account on 2/6, finally got refund in a check and now the bank has put a hold on the funds??? has anyone ever heard of that?

Answer 16

I went to H&R Block and did my taxes with the 1040A. i did no longer get authorized for an RAL (first time in years) and that i filed on the fifteenth and it replaced into ordinary via the IRS on Sunday the seventeenth. The IRS website shows no suggestion by any potential and that i've got usually called the 1800 quantity and not something. i understand the cycle says that's going to deposit on the twenty ninth. I even have an emerald card with H&R Block and it will bypass on there. i understand the form you men experience. that's problematical.

Answer 17

No but, I called 1st thing this morning to see what was the holdup..same dependents, no funny nothing just plain and simple return..Hell I've been working since I was 16...I got a pack of lies because I realized it was the run around. Just that a CP05 letter would be coming out. So I copied kids info, grabbed letter from both schools and had the secretary notarized! Made of copy of W-2's from temp service and asked for a letter from them..just waiting on this damn letter now...Feb. 23rd...hum we will see

Also I told them I needed to complete a request for an advocate...

Answer 18

My status has not changed yet. I just checked, it still says Feb 24th deposit unlesss we find errors.



I hope it changes to you will have your money Friday. LOL.



Crossing fingers. Good luck. Cheers!



UPDATE:



I checked all day yesterday with bank of america up until 12:15 AM.



Then when I woke up this morning, saturday, my money was there!



Thank God.



Good luck!

Answer 19

Here's my opinion - and it' sjust an opinion because I have the same error code, I'm thinking since they gave us a "should have by" date of the 17th and the 17th is passed, that is why the error message is coming up. I spoke with someone yesterday and she assured me my dd date is the 20th - I'm on hold with them again, but I'm thinking this isn't terrible.
