The IRS does have a number you can call with questions: 1-800-829-1040
https://www.irs.gov/help/telephone-assistance
Tried calling the number and got recorded messages. After following all the instructions I got the same answer as when I went to the IRS site "Wheres my refund" No information provided was the answer. Hopefully that means it hasn't been processed yet. If it had Wouldn't I get a message saying a refund had been issued? Even if it was not to me?
