Residents eager to get their state tax refunds may have a long wait this year: The recession has tied up cash and caused officials in half a dozen states to consider freezing refunds, in one case for as long as five months.

States from New York to Hawaii that have been hard-hit by the economic downturn say they have either delayed refunds or are considering doing so because of budget shortfalls.


That's just splendid...will the people in these states be able to charge the states interest?

I'm waiting on mine, but it has only been 2 weeks.

But then again, I'm not expecting back much either.

Is this an attempt to use those funds for curent fiscal year and then do the same thing next year to replace those funds? I see this as being one of those things that will be hard to ween off of.

Great reason to adjust withholdings so that a person doesn't GET a refund ... don't give them more of your money than you have to to begin with!
