846 Code: Same Refund Date Pattern Past 2 Years (2/22) - Will 2024 Follow?

The 846 date patterns are interesting but not reliable predictors. While some taxpayers do see similar dates year after year, the IRS processes returns based on current workload, verification needs, and processing cycles. Your as of date 3/4 suggests you're still in processing. The cycle pattern theory is popular but not officially confirmed by the IRS.

Have you tried taxr.ai? It's this new tool that analyzes your transcript and tells you exactly what's happening with your refund. Costs $1 but saved me hours of trying to decode my transcript. https://taxr.ai

mine hit exactly same date 3 years running but this year its way off schedule smh

The IRS be playing games with our money fr 🤡

My transcripts were all over the place last 3 yrs. No pattern whatsoever. Its literally just whenever they get to it tbh

Your acceptance date is pretty early tho! Should see movement soon. Keep us updated!
