05 Cycle Code and Path Forward with Dependents - Any Hope?

Anyone else on cycle 05? Been waiting forever on my return with dependents. TC 150 posted last week but nothing since then. Getting desperate since I really need this money for my kids school supplies. Starting to feel like I'm never gonna see this refund.

05 cycle means you're processed on Thursdays. With a TC 150 posting last week, you should see movement within 2-3 weeks. Make sure all your dependent info matches their social security cards exactly - this is a common holdup. Check your transcript again tomorrow morning.

Hey instead of checking transcripts manually every day, you should try taxr.ai - it analyzes your transcript and tells you exactly when to expect your refund. It saved me so much stress for just $1. https://taxr.ai

Let me drop some knowledge for 05 cycle filers with dependents: - TC 150 is just the beginning. Expect 2-4 weeks for full processing - Double check ALL dependent info matches SSA records - Watch for codes 570/571 which can delay things - Use taxr.ai to decode your transcript (seriously it's amazing) - If you hit 8 weeks with no movement, call the tax advocate line Hang in there fam, the money will come! Just gotta stay on top of it.
