If there is a small offset on my refund, does it delay the refund date?
Q. I have a refund of $5047 thats supposed to be DD on Friday, the 29th. I found out I owe the Dept of State $116 for a returned check on a passport from several years ago and that is going to be taken from my refund. Does that generally delay the refund date?
Asked by Thomas - Tue Jan 26 10:58:46 2010 - - 7 Answers - 0 Comments

A. An offset could but does not always delay the refund. It appears from my experience it depends on the nature of the offset. If it is clear cut, as yours appears to be, there is little if any delay.

A. I first had refund to be deposited 1/25, then "there is a delay in processing your refund" recvd a cp-05 letter which basically told me nothing, would receive a refund or another letter within 3 weeks from 2/18! The people at the IRS are NO help at all. I don't think there is anything wrong with any of our returns. I think they are just slow and are using these codes as excuses to hold our money. I am so sure they will be paying us interest on our money that they owe us! The exact same thing happened to me last year. H&R block on line. E-filed. Still have been waiting almost 6 weeks!

How long does simple pay delay your IRS refund?
Q. I filed my taxes with HR Block online e-file, and according to the IRS website my refund is supposed to be direct deposited on March 5th, 2010, tomorrow. I'm wondering if anyone else used simple pay from HR Block, and how long that process delayed your IRS refund for compared to what the IRS website says. I expect a day or 2 but any longer than that would be a bit of a waste.

A. You asked this question an hour ago and the answer hasn't changed since then. Please don't post the same question multiple times. When the money shows up in your account depends upon how your bank processes ACH transactions. Some banks process them in real time around the clock. In that case the money would turn up in your account within a few hours of the IRS sending it, though many banks won't make it available to you until the beginning of the next banking day. Other banks batch-process all transactions at the end of the banking day. If your deposit was sent with the Thursday transmittals from the IRS, your bank would not process it until Friday evening. The money would not be available to you in your account until the beginning… [cont.]

A. You "heard" it here, so why do you think anyone will give you any other answer? The IRS has anti-fraud programs in place. If they didn't, people would make up numbers on their W-2s, file and hope that they could get, keep and spend the money before anyone noticed. The exact parameters are kept secret. Bill Gates asking for a $10,000 refund wouldn't surprise the IRS. Someone who worked at McDonalds, yes.

On that note, I will probably be getting another update on Wednesday morning on 3/11 telling me a different reason because from what I understand the refunds are not direct deposited on any days but Friday.
