If I could give 10 stars I would
If I could give 10 stars I would If I could give 10 stars I would Such an amazing service so needed during the times when EDD almost never picks up Claimyr gets me on the phone with EDD every time without fail faster. A much needed service without Claimyr I would have never received the payment I needed to support me during my postpartum recovery. Thank you so much Claimyr!
Really made a difference
Really made a difference, save me time and energy from going to a local office for making the call.
Worth not wasting your time calling for hours.
Was a bit nervous or untrusting at first, but my calls went thru. First time the wait was a bit long but their customer chat line on their page was helpful and put me at ease that I would receive my call. Today my call dropped because of EDD and Claimyr heard my concern on the same chat and another call was made within the hour.
An incredibly helpful service
An incredibly helpful service! Got me connected to a CA EDD agent without major hassle (outside of EDD's agents dropping calls ā which Claimyr has free protection for). If you need to file a new claim and can't do it online, pay the $ to Claimyr to get the process started. Absolutely worth it!
Consistent,frustration free, quality Service.
Used this service a couple times now. Before I'd call 200 times in less than a weak frustrated as can be. But using claimyr with a couple hours of waiting i was on the line with an representative or on hold. Dropped a couple times but each reconnected not long after and was mission accomplished, thanks to Claimyr.
IT WORKS!! Not a scam!
I tried for weeks to get thru to EDD PFL program with no luck. I gave this a try thinking it may be a scam. OMG! It worked and They got thru within an hour and my claim is going to finally get paid!! I upgraded to the $60 call. Best $60 spent!

The IRS really needs to make this stuff more user friendly istg
Raul Neal
ā¢fr its like they purposely make it confusing š¤”
Javier Gomez
I feel you on the confusion! Just went through this same thing last month. The "As Of" date basically just shows when the IRS computers last touched your account - it's NOT your refund date unfortunately. Your cycle code 05 means you're on the Thursday update schedule, so any changes to your transcript will typically show up on Thursday mornings. That April 15th date you're seeing is probably related to the tax deadline, not your specific return. The real timeline depends on so many factors - whether you have credits like EITC/CTC, if there are any review holds, etc. Most people are seeing 2-3 week processing times right now if there are no issues. Keep checking your transcript on Thursdays since that's when cycle 05 accounts update! š¤

Cycle codes explained: ā¢ First 2 digits (08) = Weekend processing batch ā¢ Last 2 digits (04) = Which processing group you're in ā¢ 0804 is common for February filers ā¢ DDD of 3/25 is normal timeline for 2/17 filing ā¢ Most returns follow 21-day normal processing ā¢ Returns with credits (EITC/CTC) take longer (up to 6 weeks) ā¢ Transcripts update weekly, usually Thursday night ā¢ WMR tool updates 24-48 hours after transcript changes ā¢ Your timeline appears completely normal
Rachel Clark
ā¢This breakdown is so helpful! I've been filing taxes for 12 years and never understood what those codes meant. It's like having a decoder ring for the IRS's secret language. Definitely saving this for future reference!
Also in the 0804 cycle here! Filed 2/19 and just checked my transcript after reading this post - I have a DDD of 3/25 too. It's reassuring to see we're all moving through at roughly the same pace. I was getting anxious because last year my refund took forever, but it looks like this year is much more predictable. The timing makes sense now that I understand what the cycle codes actually mean. Thanks for starting this thread - it's nice to know we're not alone in the waiting game!

Protip: The Where's My Refund tool updates way less frequently than transcripts. Check transcripts instead if you want the most current info.
Malik Davis
ā¢thx for the tip! wmr has been showing the same message for weeks smh
Marcus Marsh
Based on my experience, transcripts usually update between 12:30-3:00am EST on your designated cycle day. If you're on a weekly cycle (most common), it's typically Friday mornings. But don't drive yourself crazy checking every night - the IRS processes in batches so your info won't change until it's actually your turn in the queue. Save your sanity and check once in the morning after your cycle day!
Sean O'Brien
ā¢This is solid advice! I learned the hard way that constantly refreshing just leads to disappointment and lost sleep. The batch processing thing is so true - your transcript won't magically update at 12:01am just because it's technically your cycle day. Better to check once in the morning and move on with your life if there's no update.

February 25th mail date here too and still nothing in my mailbox š” this is getting ridiculous
Lucy Lam
ā¢At least I'm not alone! Let me know if yours comes this week?
will do! we're all in this hellish waiting game together lol
I'm also waiting on a Feb 25th mail date check! This is so nerve-wracking being my first paper check too. Reading through all these comments is actually really helpful though - sounds like 7-10 business days is pretty normal even though it feels like forever. I just signed up for USPS Informed Delivery like someone suggested so hopefully I'll at least get a heads up when it's coming. The waiting is brutal but at least we're all going through this together! š¤
Nia Davis
ā¢Right there with you! Also Feb 25th mail date and checking the mailbox obsessively every day. It's crazy how stressful waiting for your own money can be. Thanks for mentioning the Informed Delivery thing - just signed up for that too. Hopefully we'll both see our checks show up in the preview soon! The community here has been super helpful in managing expectations. Fingers crossed for this week! š¤
Kai Santiago
I understand your concern about the transcript status. Based on what you've described, here's what's happening: ā¢ Address updates often process separately from return status updates ā¢ The system is acknowledging your new information (good sign) ā¢ The "not filed" status will likely update within the next 7-10 days ā¢ This pattern is especially common with address changes or newly married filing status changes Many of us have experienced this exact sequence, and it typically resolves itself without any action needed on your part. The fact that your new address is showing means your return is definitely in the system and being processed.

Thanks for sharing this question - I'm actually going through something very similar right now! Filed about 3 weeks ago and just noticed my transcript updated with our new address but still shows "not filed" status. It's reassuring to see from the other comments that this seems to be a normal part of the process. I was starting to worry something went wrong with our return, but it sounds like the IRS systems just update different pieces of information at different times. Going to give it another week or two before I start panicking. Fingers crossed we both see our status update to "filed" soon!
