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 – 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!

I went through exactly this last week. Here's what happened and how I resolved it: 1. First, I couldn't access transcripts for 2 days straight 2. On the third day, I tried early morning (5:30am ET) and got through 3. When I finally accessed my transcript, I saw my account had been updated with new codes 4. The cycle date on my transcript showed my refund was processed in the most recent batch 5. My direct deposit arrived exactly 2 days after the transcript updated The technical explanation: The IRS Master File updates in weekly batches. During these updates, they take the transcript system offline. When you see these outages, it often means they're processing a large batch of returns. The system will typically come back online with updates to many accounts.
Did you notice if your Where's My Refund status updated before or after your transcript became available again? I'm wondering which system updates first.
Were you able to see any pending transactions in your bank account before the official deposit date? My bank sometimes shows IRS deposits a day early.
I'm experiencing the same issue! Been trying since yesterday morning with no luck. Based on what others are saying about this being related to batch processing, I'm hoping it means good news is coming. Does anyone know if there's a pattern to when these maintenance windows typically end? I've got my tax preparation software ready to go but need to verify a few numbers from last year's return first. Really hoping this gets resolved soon - it's frustrating when you're trying to be proactive about your taxes and the system won't cooperate!

The IRS is such a joke fr fr. Why cant they just email the PIN in 2025? 🤔
security reasons. email is too easy to hack
I had the same issue last year - took almost 3 weeks for mine to show up. The mail system seems really slow with these verification letters. If you're getting anxious about it, definitely call that number Aisha mentioned. Also worth double-checking that your mailing address on file with the IRS matches exactly where you want it sent. Even small differences like "St" vs "Street" can cause delays. Hang in there!

Make sure you check with your lender about using your LOC this way. Some personal LOCs have terms that prohibit using them for investment properties. I found this out the hard way when my bank reviewed my account activity and saw I was making payments to my LLC that manages my rentals. They threatened to call the entire loan due immediately since it violated the terms!
That's a really good point I hadn't considered! Did you manage to resolve the situation with your bank or did you have to refinance the loan elsewhere? I'll definitely review my LOC agreement before proceeding.
I negotiated with them and ended up refinancing through a commercial loan product they offered. It had a higher interest rate but proper terms for investment use. The loan officer admitted they rarely check but when they do, it can cause major headaches. Another option is to get a LOC specifically designed for investment properties. Some banks offer these products but require more documentation upfront. The benefit is you won't have any issues with loan terms later, and everything is properly structured from the beginning.
Has anyone here considered the impact on your personal assets if the rental property turns out to be a bad investment? Using personal assets as collateral puts them at risk if the rental doesn't generate enough income to cover the LOC payments. I did this with my stock portfolio and regretted it when the rental market dipped in my area.
This is such an important point! I used my home equity to buy a rental and when the tenants stopped paying during covid, I almost lost my primary residence. Maybe consider a conventional mortgage on the rental even if the rate is higher? Less risk to your personal assets.
This is exactly why I'm proceeding cautiously with my plan. I'm only planning to use about 40% of my available credit line initially, which gives me a cushion if rental income doesn't meet expectations. I'm also keeping 6 months of LOC payments in cash reserves specifically for this scenario. The tax benefits are attractive, but you're absolutely right that protecting personal assets should be the priority. Have you considered using an LLC structure to add another layer of protection between your personal assets and the rental property?

Has anyone successfully deducted home office and tech equipment for their S-Corp trading business? My accountant says since trading isn't technically a "service" I provide to others, I might not qualify for these deductions even though I have a dedicated home office where I exclusively do my trading work.
Yes! I deduct my home office, multiple monitors, trading computer, specialized software, market data subscriptions, and even partial internet costs. The key is that your S-Corp must have a legitimate business purpose beyond personal investment. Keep documentation showing you're operating a trading business (business plan, trading log, regular hours) rather than just managing personal investments. My S-Corp pays me rent for the home office space, which is a deductible expense for the corporation. Make sure you have proper documentation though - I have a written rental agreement between myself and my S-Corp with fair market value rent.
One thing that might help clarify your situation is understanding the difference between "investment activity" and "trading business activity" within your S-Corp. The IRS looks at factors like frequency of trades, time spent, and intent to profit from short-term price movements versus long-term appreciation. If your S-Corp is engaged in trading as a business (not just investment), you can legitimately pay yourself a reasonable salary for managing those trading activities. The salary reduces the S-Corp's net income, and the remaining profits (still characterized as capital gains) flow through to your personal return. Regarding your question about reinvesting profits - this doesn't change your tax liability. You're taxed on realized gains whether you distribute the cash or reinvest it. However, if you're consistently profitable and reinvesting, you'll want to make sure you have enough cash flow to cover the taxes on the pass-through income. One important consideration: if you're making "multiple short-term trades" as you mentioned, you might want to explore whether your S-Corp qualifies for trader tax status and consider a Section 475 mark-to-market election. This could potentially be more advantageous than traditional capital gains treatment, especially if you experience volatile trading results.

If your looking at account transcript, the cycle code is usually next to the 150 transaction code. But seriously just use taxr.ai, it explains everything way better than we can here

Pro tip: once you know your cycle code, you can also check the IRS processing calendar to see which weeks they're processing returns. They usually skip holiday weeks and sometimes have maintenance periods. Also, if you e-filed, your transcripts typically show up faster than paper filers. The cycle code system has been the same for years so once you understand it, you're set for future filings too!
