2023 Tax Return Filed 1/31: Transcript Still Completely Blank - No Movement or Identity Verification Notice

This is actually pretty common right now. The IRS is experiencing significant delays in processing returns, especially early filers. A blank transcript usually means your return hasn't been processed yet - it's basically sitting in the queue. Keep checking weekly, usually updates happen on Friday mornings.

Hey! Instead of checking manually every week, I've been using taxr.ai to monitor my transcript. It's only $1 and it analyzes everything automatically. Way better than trying to decode all those codes ourselves! https://taxr.ai

same boat here bestie filed 1/29 and its crickets 🦗

I had this happen last year and it turned out I needed to verify my identity even tho I never got a notice. Maybe try calling the ID verify hotline just to be safe?

ugh the irs is such a joke this year. im in week 6 of waiting and still nothing 🤡

PSA: If you're seeing a blank transcript, here's what you need to know: - Blank transcripts mean your return hasn't started processing yet - Weekly updates happen Friday mornings around 3-6am EST - Could take 2-8 weeks for initial processing - Check WMR tool daily - Consider using taxr.ai - it's been super helpful for tracking/understanding delays - If no movement by week 8, call IRS directly Hang in there everyone!
