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!

2 Has anyone used Koinly for this purpose? I'm looking at options for sorting out my crypto taxes and that's one I've heard mentioned.

18 I've used Koinly for the past 2 filing seasons. It's pretty good for most mainstream transactions, but I found it struggles with some DeFi stuff and NFTs. The interface is nice though and it integrates with most major exchanges.

One thing I haven't seen mentioned yet is checking if you have any old email confirmations from your 2021 purchases. Coinbase used to send detailed transaction confirmations that included the exact amount, price, and fees for each purchase. I was in a similar situation last year and found these emails buried in my Gmail - they were a lifesaver for reconstructing my cost basis. Even if you can't find the emails in your inbox, try searching for "Coinbase" or "You bought" in your email from 2021. Also, if you linked a bank account for your purchases, your bank statements from 2021 will show the exact dollar amounts you transferred to Coinbase on specific dates. You can then cross-reference those dates with historical crypto prices to get a pretty accurate cost basis estimate. The IRS accepts reasonable reconstruction methods when original records are unavailable, so don't stress too much about getting it perfect down to the penny. Just document your methodology clearly.

Does anyone know how long amendments are taking to process these days? I filed a 1040X back in November for 2022 and still haven't heard anything.

The IRS is currently saying amended returns are taking more than 20 weeks to process - often much longer. Paper amendments (which most are) take the longest. The "Where's My Amended Return" tool on IRS.gov can give you a basic status, but it's not very detailed.

Just to add some reassurance - I was in almost the exact same situation last year when I forgot to include rental income from a small duplex I own. Filed my original return in early March, realized the mistake a few days later, and immediately filed a 1040X. The key things that worked for me: 1. Filed the amendment right away (didn't wait for original return processing) 2. Included payment for the additional tax owed with the amendment 3. Used certified mail to send it so I had proof of delivery The IRS processed my amendment without any issues, and because I got it filed and paid before April 15th, there were no penalties or interest charges. The whole process took about 4 months to complete, but the important thing was getting it submitted quickly. Don't stress too much about it - honest mistakes happen and the IRS understands that. Just get your 1040X filed ASAP with payment included and you'll be fine!

I'm so stressed about this too! My return was accepted on February 8th and I didn't see ANY movement on WMR until March 1st - that's 22 days of nothing! 😫 When it finally updated, it went straight from "Return Received" to "Refund Approved" and I got my money 3 days later. The whole time I was checking multiple times a day and getting more anxious with each passing day. The IRS is definitely moving slower this year than I've ever seen before!

That's exactly what happened with mine last year! Went from nothing to approved overnight after weeks of checking. Gave me such relief when it finally updated.

I'm going through the exact same thing right now! Filed on February 28th, accepted the same day, and it's been radio silence from WMR ever since. I keep telling myself to stop checking it obsessively, but working from home makes it way too easy to refresh that page every few hours. Reading through everyone's experiences here is actually really reassuring - sounds like 2-3 weeks with no movement is pretty normal this year, even for simple returns. I think the IRS is just overwhelmed and moving at their own pace. At least we're all in this waiting game together! Thanks for posting this question because I was starting to wonder if something was wrong with my return.

Just wanted to add that if you haven't received your refund yet even though code 846 shows 02-13-2025, give it a few more business days. Sometimes there can be delays with direct deposit or mailing depending on your bank or address. The IRS typically says to wait 21 days from the filing date before inquiring about a missing refund. Since your return was filed on 02-24 according to code 150, you're still within that window. If you don't see it by mid-March, then definitely call the IRS hotline!

If you filed on April 15, 2020 (the extended deadline that year due to COVID), your tax transcript should be available until at least April 15, 2027, as the IRS maintains records for 7 years. If you filed earlier in 2020 for your 2019 taxes, you still have plenty of time before those records expire. One thing that hasn't been mentioned: if you've moved since 2019, make sure you're using your address from that year when requesting transcripts by mail. The IRS will only send sensitive information to the address they have on file from that tax year unless you've formally updated your address with them through Form 8822.

I feel your pain about losing track of important tax documents during stressful times - caring for family can definitely throw off our usual organization systems! Here's what I've learned works best for getting your 2019 AGI: **Try these in order:** 1. **Check your tax software account first** - If you used TurboTax, H&R Block, TaxAct, etc. in 2019, log into that account. They usually keep your returns for 7+ years and it's instant access. 2. **Search your email thoroughly** - Look for "tax confirmation 2019", "e-file accepted", or your tax software's name. Many people save the PDF confirmation emails without realizing it. 3. **Contact your tax preparer** - If you used one, they're required to keep records and this is often the fastest route. 4. **IRS Get Transcript Online** - Go to IRS.gov/transcripts. You'll need to verify your identity with a credit card, mortgage, or auto loan info. 5. **Call the automated transcript line** - 800-908-9946 is less congested than the main number. **Only if all else fails:** Call 800-829-1040 right at 7am when they open. Have your SSN, filing status, and 2019 address ready. The online transcript is usually your best bet if you can get through the verification process. Good luck!
