Jan. 30th: Completed federal taxes. Jan. 31st: Attempted to file federal taxes online, was not able to because one of the forms "could not be submitted online" to the IRS. Feb. 1st: Mailed federal return to IRS. March 15th: 6 weeks later, still have not received refund from IRS. March 16th: Called IRS, was told I have to wait until tomorrow to check the status of return. March 17th: Called IRS, was told return will not be processed until April because I changed my filing status from single to married, and they have to create an entirely new file for me. As my daughter would say, bear shirt.
