Mailed my taxes 9 weeks ago, still no #2 or #3 Stim checks and no refund [View all]

There's little guidance on what to do. Visit Get My Payment. Sit and wait.

I expect this to drag on through July into August.

IRS has a backlog we are told. Don't call them. Even if you do you get automated system and told to visit Get My Payment.

Taxpayer Advocate doesn't sound promising, but I suppose if it's late summer they might listen.

No way to check if your ID's been hacked and your return's been misdirected.

This is just a crazy system.
