How long does it take to receive a refund when filing injured spouse?

I filed 2/14 and turbo tax said I should see a refund 2/27. Still no refund or info. When I called the IRS, they said it takes longer when you file an injured spouse (12 weeks?). Is that accurate or is the worst scenario? How long should I expect to wait?How long does it take to receive a refund when filing injured spouse?
When you attach Form 8379 to your return the total processing time is 11 to 14 weeks. If you file after the fact it takes 6 to 8 weeks after your tax return is processed to release any refund. This works out to about the same total amount of time needed for processing either way.





If you filed on 2/14, don't expect to see any refund before early May and possibly early June.How long does it take to receive a refund when filing injured spouse?
Sorry, but that's the way it works. TFTP.
