As taxes come due, millions of Americans are still waiting on their refunds from last year

"I'm concerned, because if I go ahead and do my taxes now, is it going to hurt the ones I'm still waiting on?" Owen said."Is it going to throw the system off?"During the pandemic, the IRS accumulated a historic backlog of returns.6.2 million individual returns remain unprocessed.

The couple is waiting on a little over $11,000. In the last year, Spencer lost her job and her husband started a business that he later shut down. Spencer said she believes it could've stayed afloat if they had more money for him to hire employees: "Having an extra $11,000 would've gotten us a really long way."

"It's either pay my bills, fix my truck, or not eat for the time," Ertl said."So that money would've helped everything." Ertl is expecting another refund this year, but is worried she won't get it:"I still severely need it."
