Anyone Else Not Get Their Federal Tax Refund Yet?

Has anyone else gotten their state refunds yet but not their federal refunds yet? I did my taxes in early February and got my state refunds but not my federal refunds yet. I was alerted by email that the IRS accepted by state and federal taxes but why would there be a hold-up on the federal taxes? Just all the stimulus stuff happening? 

Does anyone have a working number they've used to contact the IRS? I tried all the numbers listed on irs.gov and they all say "Due to call volumes, we can not complete your call at this time, goodbye." And yes, my tax preparers aren't responsible for contacting the IRS but they were not very helpful to contact them either. 

Since it's been 8 weeks, should I just be more patient this year or would you give it a little more time? Again, any working IRS number you guys have used would be appreciated, thanks! :)

    Do you have some cognitive disability?

    Your writing appears like you have a decent comprehensive writing understanding.

    Your ability to understand what is written is non-existent.

    The number for the IRS is 800-829-1040.

    Your state return & refund has nothing to do with your federal return & refund.

    *** HOW COME YOU DO NOT UNDERSTAND THIS? ***

    The rules are not different for 2015, 2016, 2017, 2018, 2019, 2020, nor 2021.

    Most refunds are processed within 21 days.

    Your refund is not late until it's been 16 weeks.

    the IRS will not help you until your refund has been processing for 16 weeks.

    *** HOW COME YOU DO NOT UNDERSTAND THIS? ***

    Once you pay your tax preparers bill, they cannot help you unless it's determined that you tax return is wrong.  There is NO REASON TO CONTACT THEM.  THERE IS NOTHING THEY CAN DO FOR YOU.

    *** HOW COME YOU DO NOT UNDERSTAND THIS? ***

    There is a hold up because the IRS monitors Yahoo Answers and is screwing everyone whose name is Mike to torture you!
