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 โ€“ 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!

According to Internal Revenue Manual 21.4.1.3(1), the 846 code indicates a refund issuance, while 971 refers to a notice or correspondence. Per IRM 5.19.1.4.10, when you have an outstanding tax liability, the IRS is authorized under IRC ยง 6402(a) to offset your refund to satisfy the debt, which appears to be what happened in your case. The February 25th date on the 846 code indicates when the refund was issued (after any applicable offsets), and the March 10th date on the 971 code indicates when they'll send formal documentation of this transaction. This is standard procedure when the IRS applies refund offsets to satisfy existing tax liabilities.

I just went through this exact scenario last month and can confirm what others are saying. The 971 code is basically the IRS saying "we're sending you paperwork" and the 846 is "money is coming your way." Since your 846 date was 2/25, you should check your bank account - the refund might already be there (minus whatever you owed). The timing makes perfect sense too - they process everything first, send the money, then mail you the explanation letter. It's like ordering something online and getting the package before the shipping confirmation email! One thing to watch for: the amount next to your 846 code will show exactly how much they sent you after taking out what you owed. So if you were expecting $1000 back but owed $200, the 846 should show $800. The 971 notice will just be a letter breaking down those numbers for your records.

Protip: stop checking WMR every 2 seconds, it only updates once per day usually around 3am EST

Been there! This exact thing happened to me last month. TurboTax acceptance just means they successfully sent your return to the IRS, but it takes a few days for their systems to sync up. The IRS processes returns in batches, so even though they have it, it might not show in WMR until they start actually processing your specific return. Usually takes 3-5 business days from acceptance to show up in WMR. Try not to stress too much - if TurboTax says accepted, you're in the system! ๐Ÿ™‚

To all those having trouble reaching a human at IRS. I just ran across this video that gave me a shortcut to reach a human. Hope it helps! https://youtu.be/_kiP6q8DX5c

Reference 9022 typically indicates a math on your that the needs to correct before processing your refund. This could be something like incorrect calculations on your liability, withholdings, or credits. The will usually send you a notice explaining the specific and either correct it automatically (if it results in a smaller refund) or request additional information from you. You should receive correspondence from the within a few weeks explaining the details of the math they found.

TaxSlayer isn't the problem. The IRS is just swamped right now. I'm a tax preparer and clients who filed in January with simple returns are getting paid, but anyone with credits or who filed after Feb 1st is seeing delays across ALL software platforms. Be patient, it'll come!

Filed with TaxSlayer on Feb 5th and still waiting too! I have EIC and ACTC on my return, so sounds like we're all in the same boat with those credits causing delays. My transcript updated yesterday with a 971 notice date but no deposit date yet. At least knowing it's normal processing and not an error makes me feel better. Hang in there - seems like March is when most of us with credits will see movement!

Same situation here - filed 2/3 and still getting that exact message. It's frustrating but at least we're not alone! I've been checking every few days but trying not to obsess over it. From what I've read, as long as you don't get any letters or notices, it's just a waiting game. Hang in there!
