I filed my state and federal but never received a check from federal and I received the check from state.Help!



I received my refund from state but nothing from Federal. A month after I received my check I got another w2 from another job I had. I didn't file that on time and need to do a 1040x. I called Federal and they said they never received my Federal Taxes, and I'm really worried now! I didn't copy or save anything! How is it possible that i received my State Refund and not My Federal? I did my Federal Taxes to calculate my State, I sent them off and everything. I don't want a penalty and I'm not really getting any help. The FTB isn't helping me!

You have a bit of a mess. There could be a number of ways to approach the problem. If you have no copy of your federal return (1040) I would attempt to recreate it as you filed it including the original date. Depending on how you prepared that return will determine how difficult that may be. With the recreated 1040 I would do an amendment (1040X) to the Feds with the new W-2. This will motivate them to tell you that they don't have your original and you can send them a "copy" of the now recreated original with a scolding note about them losing your return. You will also need to send an amendment to the state. Since you mentioned the FTB I would guess that you live in CA and the proper form would be an 540X. It is likely that both amendments will result in additional tax (perhaps not) which you should send along with the amendments. By the way make sure to keep a copy of the amendments.
The two go to different addresses, so it's entirely possible that one would go through and the other not. Just complete the 1040x and send it in. If they contact you about a missing return, you can make your case to them later on.
I deal with the IRS all the time so listen up. The FTB is the State the Federal return is filed for the Federal government. They are not the same, the FTB can not help you with the Federal return. Following are the reasons you have not gotten your refund:
1. You did not mail the federal return (sending a copy with the state return is not the same) You need to mail a separate copy to the IRS.
2. You made a mistake on your retun and you are not owed a refund, in this case you should receive a correspondence from the IRS communicating the same.
3. They have not processed your return and you will be getting your refund shortly.

You can always check on the status of your refund by going to http://www.irs.gov/ right on the front page there is a caption which says "Where is my refund" click on the link and follow on. Best of Luck

I assume you goofed and did not file your federal return. But, the good news is, now you don't have to amend your federal return because of the late W-2. Plus, if you are owed a refund, you won't pay penalties or interest.

So just re-do your federal return with the additional W-2 and mail it off to the correct address. Make a copy of everything before you mail it.

Then, you will have to amend your state return.
