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!

PSA: Be careful with identity thieves trying to take advantage of this situation. Never give out personal info to anyone claiming to be from the IRS over the phone or email. They'll always contact you by mail first.
Anyone else feel like the whole tax system needs a major overhaul? This identity verification stuff is just the tip of the iceberg. 🙄
Careful what you wish for. Knowing the government, they'd probably make it even more complicated 😅

I went in person for a different issue (identity verification) and they were super helpful, but for reviews/audits they probably won't be able to do much on the spot. Still, they can see notes in your file that you can't see online, so it might give you more info at least. Make sure to schedule an appointment tho - they don't take walk-ins anymore at most locations.

Whatever you do, DON'T IGNORE IT! That's the worst thing you can do with IRS notices. Trust me, I learned that the hard way 😭
Oof, sounds like theres a story there. Care to share what happened?
Let's just say ignoring it led to some hefty penalties and a lot more stress than if I'd just dealt with it right away. Don't be like me, kids! 😅

Another thing to consider - if you're using the cash method of accounting for your business (which most small Schedule C filers do), you would only deduct expenses when you actually pay them. So the store credit approach mentioned above makes sense from that perspective too. If you're using accrual method (rare for small businesses), it gets more complicated and you'd need to properly account for when the expense was incurred vs when the credit was applied.

•How do I know which accounting method I'm using? This is my first year filing Schedule C and I don't remember choosing anything specific. I just track my income when I get paid and expenses when I pay them.

•You're using the cash method. That's the default for most small businesses and exactly what you described - recording income when you receive it and expenses when you pay them. The accrual method is more complex and involves recording transactions when they're earned or incurred, regardless of when money changes hands. Most Schedule C filers use cash method unless they specifically elected otherwise or have inventory that requires accrual accounting.

Wait I'm confused. If Amazon gives me a $10 promotional credit just for being a Prime member and I use it for a business purchase, is that considered a discount (deduct only what I paid) or is it considered income (deduct full amount but report the $10 as income)?

•It's considered a discount, not income. You would deduct only what you actually paid out of pocket after applying the promotional credit. The IRS generally views promotional credits and coupons as price reductions rather than income. You don't need to report the $10 credit as income, and you should only deduct the reduced amount you actually paid for the business item.
