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!

Anyone know what the realistic chances are of actually getting a whistleblower award? My brother-in-law claims he got like 15% of what the IRS collected after his report, but that sounds like BS to me.

0 coins

It's not BS but it's definitely rare. Awards are typically 15-30% of what the IRS collects, but only if: 1) they actually find fraud, 2) they collect over $2 million, and 3) your info was actually useful in their investigation. Most whistleblower submissions don't result in awards, either because the case isn't strong enough or the amount recovered isn't large enough.

Based on my experience working in tax compliance, your evidence sounds pretty solid for a Form 211 submission. Emails discussing "keeping it off the books" combined with screenshots of accounting discrepancies can be very compelling evidence - the IRS looks for patterns that show intentional tax evasion rather than just mistakes. A few key points for your documentation: - Organize everything chronologically to show the pattern over time - Include dates, amounts, and context for each piece of evidence - Your $450K estimate is fine - show your methodology for how you arrived at that figure - Keep detailed notes about those overheard conversations (who, when, where, what was said) The IRS doesn't expect you to have perfect proof - that's their job to investigate. Your role is providing substantial information that gives them a starting point. From what you've described, you definitely have enough to warrant filing. Just make sure you're only using information you had legitimate access to through your normal job duties to avoid any retaliation issues. Good luck with your submission!

This is really helpful advice, thank you! I'm feeling more confident about moving forward with my Form 211 now. One quick question - when you mention organizing everything chronologically, should I create like a timeline document that references all the evidence pieces, or just arrange the actual documents in date order? I want to make it as easy as possible for the IRS investigators to follow the story of what happened.

Does anyone know how wash sales are represented on the Robinhood 1099? I did some frequent trading of the same stocks last year and I'm concerned about how to handle it correctly.

0 coins

Wash sales should be marked with a "W" code on your 1099-B and the amount of loss disallowed is shown in a separate column. Robinhood will include this adjustment in your adjusted basis, but it's good to understand which transactions were affected. If you did trading across multiple platforms (like Robinhood plus another broker), be aware that Robinhood won't know about wash sales between platforms. You'd need to identify those yourself or use tax software that can analyze across multiple 1099s.

0 coins

Just wanted to chime in as someone who went through this exact same panic last year! That section 1D number is definitely just your total proceeds from all sales - NOT what you'll owe taxes on. I had a similar situation where my 1099 showed like $200k in proceeds but my actual taxable gains were only around $12k. The key thing to remember is that the IRS expects to see these big numbers because they represent ALL the money that moved through your account from sales. What you actually pay taxes on is the difference between what you sold stocks for and what you originally paid for them (your cost basis). Make sure to look for the sections that show your net gains/losses - that's the number that matters for your tax return. And definitely keep all your records in case you need to verify any cost basis calculations later!

This is so reassuring to hear from someone who went through the same thing! I'm definitely feeling less panicked now. Quick question though - when you say "net gains/losses sections," are you referring to a specific box number on the 1099? I want to make sure I'm looking at the right numbers when I sit down to actually file my taxes. Also, did you end up using any tax software or did you file manually? I'm wondering if the software automatically knows to ignore that big proceeds number and focus on the actual gains.

Code 570 on HOH Return with $17,552 AGI - EIC and Credits Pending Until April 15

Just checked my transcript and I'm seeing something concerning. My account transcript shows a 570 code dated 02-24-2025 with "Additional account action pending." I've never had this code before and I'm really worried about what it means. Could it be because my address might be wrong on my return? Here's what my transcript shows: ACCOUNT BALANCE: ACCRUED INTEREST: AS OF: Feb. 24, 2025 ACCRUED PENALTY: AS OF: Feb. 24, 2025 ACCOUNT BALANCE PLUS ACCRUALS (this is not a payoff amount) RETURN OR AS ADJUSTED.. EXEMPTIONS: 04 FILING STATUS: Head of Household ADJUSTED GROSS INCOME: $17,552.00 TAXABLE INCOME: $0.00 TAX PER RETURN: $0.00 SE TAXABLE INCOME TAXPAYER: $0.00 SE TAXABLE INCOME SPOUSE: $0.00 TOTAL SELF EMPLOYMENT TAX: $0.00 RETURN DUE DATE OR RETURN RECEIVED DATE (WHICHEVER IS LATER): Apr. 15, 2025 PROCESSING DATE: Feb. 24, 2025 TRANSACTIONS CODE EXPLANATION OF TRANSACTION CYCLE DATE AMOUNT 150 Tax return filed 20250605 02-24-2025 $0.00 30221-415-09788-5 766 Credit to your account 04-15-2025 768 Earned income credit 04-15-2025 570 Additional account action pending 02-24-2025 I filed Head of Household with an AGI of $17,552.00 and my taxable income was $0.00. The transcript shows my tax return was filed (code 150) on 02-24-2025, and I'm supposed to receive both a credit (766) and Earned Income Credit (768) dated 04-15-2025. My self-employment income for both myself and spouse shows $0.00, and my total self-employment tax is $0.00. I'm really concerned about getting my credits. This 570 code seems to be holding everything up, and I don't understand why there's "additional account action pending." Has anyone else dealt with this 570 code situation? Does it typically delay refunds by a lot? I'm counting on this money and getting worried.

Check if you have a 971 code coming after the 570. That usually means they sent you a notice explaining the hold

0 coins

dont see any 971 yet but ill keep checking

Code 570 with EIC claims is pretty standard - they're just verifying your qualifying children and income. Since your credits are already scheduled for April 15th, the IRS is confident they'll release the hold by then. The fact that you filed so early (February) actually works in your favor because there's plenty of time for them to complete their review before the scheduled release date. Most EIC verification holds clear within 4-6 weeks, and yours should be resolved well before April 15th based on the timeline shown.

That's really reassuring to hear! I was freaking out because I've never had a 570 code before. So even though it says "additional account action pending" it's probably just them double-checking my EIC eligibility? I have 2 qualifying children so maybe they're just making sure everything matches up. Thanks for explaining the timeline - makes me feel way better knowing April 15th is still realistic šŸ™

When Will My $14,621 Refund Process with 570/971 Codes and March 20 Processing Date?

I have a $15,621.00 refund showing on my transcript with codes 570 (Additional account action pending) and 971 (Notice issued). Really need this money asap as I'm facing some financial difficulties. Looking at my tax transcript details: ACCOUNT BALANCE: -15,621.00 ACCRUED INTEREST: 0.00 AS OF: Mar. 14, 2023 ACCRUED PENALTY: 0.00 AS OF: Mar. 14, 2023 ACCOUNT BALANCE PLUS ACCRUALS (this is not a payoff amount): -15,621.00 INFORMATION FROM THE RETURN OR AS ADJUSTED: EXEMPTIONS: 05 FILING STATUS: Head of Household ADJUSTED GROSS INCOME: 43,142.00 TAXABLE INCOME: 23,742.00 TAX PER RETURN: 125.00 SE TAXABLE INCOME TAXPAYER: 0.00 SE TAXABLE INCOME SPOUSE: 0.00 TOTAL SELF EMPLOYMENT TAX: 0.00 RETURN DUE DATE OR RETURN RECEIVED DATE (WHICHEVER IS LATER) Apr. 16, 2023 PROCESSING DATE Mar. 20, 2023 TRANSACTIONS CODE EXPLANATION OF TRANSACTION CYCLE DATE AMOUNT 150 Tax return filed 20230905 03-20-2023 $125.00 30211-452-21254-3 806 W-2 or 1099 withholding 04-16-2023 -$5,808.00 766 Credit to your account 04-16-2023 -$2,000.00 766 Credit to your account 04-16-2023 -$6,909.00 766 Credit to your account 04-16-2023 -$1,937.00 768 Earned income credit 04-16-2023 -$3,092.00 570 Additional account action pending 03-20-2023 $0.00 971 Notice issued 03-27-2023 $0.00 My transcript shows a processing date of March 20, 2023, and most of my credits are dated April 16, 2023. My cycle code is 20230905 with reference number 30211-452-21254-3. I'm concerned about the 570 code (Additional account action pending) posted on 03-20-2023 and the 971 notice code showing 03-27-2023. Does this April 16th date mean I'll be getting my refund deposited then? Everything seems to be processed but I'm worried about these pending action codes. The transcript shows my withholding credits of $5,808.00, three separate credits totaling $10,846.00 ($2,000.00, $6,909.00, and $1,937.00), plus Earned Income Credit of $3,092.00. Is there anything I can do to speed this up? I've been checking "Where's My Refund" but it just says it's still processing.

mine cleared after 6 weeks. hang in there!

Looking at your transcript, the good news is your refund amount is solid at $15,621 - all your credits and withholdings add up correctly. The 570/971 combo usually means they're verifying some of your credits, possibly the large ones totaling $10,846. Since your 971 notice was issued 03-27-2023, you should have received or will receive mail explaining what they need. Sometimes it's just identity verification or documentation for certain credits. The April 16th dates you're seeing are just processing cycle dates, not your actual refund date. With a cycle code ending in 05, you're on a weekly cycle which is actually better for getting updates. Keep checking your transcript weekly for changes - once that 570 drops off, you should see an 846 refund date code pretty quickly after. Have you received any mail from the IRS yet? That 971 notice will tell you exactly what's holding things up.

$8,368 Refund Delayed - IRS Codes 570 and 971 on April 2023 Transcript with Processing Date 04-17-2023

I just checked my 2022 tax transcript and saw a 570 code (Additional account action pending) dated 04-17-2023 with a 971 notice issued on 04-24-2023. My refund is supposed to be $8,368.00 (which matches my account balance) but it's just sitting there. My return was processed on April 17, 2023 with a tax per return of $8,009.00 and withholdings of $16,377.00 (code 806). I pulled my transcript on 04-07-2023 and I'm confused about what's happening. Here's what's showing on my transcript: ACCOUNT BALANCE: -$8,368.00 ACCRUED INTEREST: $0.00 AS OF: Apr. 24, 2023 ACCRUED PENALTY: $0.00 AS OF: Apr. 24, 2023 ACCOUNT BALANCE PLUS ACCRUALS (this is not a payoff amount): -$8,368.00 INFORMATION FROM THE RETURN OR AS ADJUSTED: EXEMPTIONS: 01 FILING STATUS: Single ADJUSTED GROSS INCOME: $69,277.00 TAXABLE INCOME: $56,327.00 TAX PER RETURN: $8,009.00 SE TAXABLE INCOME TAXPAYER: $0.00 SE TAXABLE INCOME SPOUSE: $0.00 TOTAL SELF EMPLOYMENT TAX: $0.00 RETURN DUE DATE OR RETURN RECEIVED DATE (WHICHEVER IS LATER) Apr. 15, 2023 PROCESSING DATE Apr. 17, 2023 TRANSACTIONS CODE EXPLANATION OF TRANSACTION CYCLE DATE AMOUNT 150 Tax return filed 20231305 04-17-2023 $8,009.00 30221-418-88158-3 806 W-2 or 1099 withholding 04-15-2023 -$16,377.00 570 Additional account action pending 04-17-2023 $0.00 971 Notice issued 04-24-2023 $0.00 Everything looks normal to me - I'm filing as Single, with AGI of $69,277.00 and taxable income of $56,327.00. No self-employment tax. Filed before the due date of April 15, 2023, and the return was processed quickly on April 17, 2023 (cycle 20231305). The math adds up since my withholdings of $16,377.00 minus tax of $8,009.00 equals my expected refund of $8,368.00. There are no accrued penalties or interest as of April 24, 2023. Anyone know what these codes mean and why my refund is being held up? The transcript shows the tracking number and everything, but no actual refund date. I'm especially concerned about the 570 code (Additional account action pending) followed by the 971 (Notice issued). Will I be getting a letter explaining what's happening?

Check if you can verify your identity online through ID.me - sometimes that speeds things up

already did that when i filed :

I went through this exact same situation last year! The 570/971 combo is frustrating but pretty standard - it just means they're doing some kind of verification review. Since your math is perfect and you filed early, it's likely just a random audit or income verification check. The good news is your transcript shows everything processed normally on 4/17, so you're definitely getting that $8,368 refund - it's just a matter of when. The 971 notice should arrive soon and tell you exactly what they need. In my case, it was just identity verification and took about 6 weeks total once I responded to their letter. Pro tip: keep checking your transcript weekly for updates. Once you see the 570 code reverse (showing as a negative amount), your refund should be released within a few days. Hang in there!

Thanks for sharing your experience! 6 weeks doesn't sound too bad compared to some of the horror stories I've been reading. Really hoping mine moves faster since everything looks straightforward on my transcript. Did you have to send in any additional documents or was it just the identity verification through their system?
