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 ā€“ 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!

Almost everyone I know who e-filed this year had some kind of error on their transcript. The IRS systems are completely overloaded and broken. Congress keeps cutting their budget and then everyone acts shocked when things like this happen.

Who prepared your taxes? If it was a professional, they should help you resolve this at no additional cost. If you did them yourself with software, check your actual submitted return first.

After being stuck in limbo for weeks, I finally reached an IRS rep through Claimyr (claimyr.com) and found out my return was on hold because of a mismatch with my W2. They never sent me a notice! The agent fixed it on the spot and my refund was released that day. Sometimes you just need to talk to a human - it was seriously the best decision I made after weeks of stress and uncertainty.

570 code appeared on transcript after 3/29 ID verification - will my $9,393 refund (EIC + withholding) be delayed past 5/2?

Just got an update on my transcript overnight at 3:14am on 4/15. Filed electronically on 3/5, accepted on 3/6. Had to verify my identity on 3/29. Checked my transcript again today and saw a 570 code (Additional account action pending) dated 5/2. My refund is showing as $9,393.00. Does anyone know if this 570 code is just from the ID verification I already completed? Or do I need to do something else? Getting worried as I've been counting on this money. Here's the exact information from my Account Transcript that I pulled today: Internal Revenue Service United States Department of the Treasury This Product Contains Sensitive Taxpayer Data Request Date: 02-28-2025 Response Date: 02-28-2025 FORM NUMBER: 1040 TAX PERIOD: Dec. 31, 2024 ACCOUNT BALANCE: -9,393.00 ACCRUED INTEREST: 0.00 AS OF: Mar. 17, 2025 ACCRUED PENALTY: 0.00 AS OF: Mar. 17, 2025 ACCOUNT BALANCE PLUS ACCRUALS (this is not a payoff amount): -9,393.00 INFORMATION FROM THE RETURN OR AS ADJUSTED EXEMPTIONS: 02 FILING STATUS: Head of Household ADJUSTED GROSS INCOME: 20,396.00 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 Mar. 17, 2025 TRANSACTIONS CODE EXPLANATION OF TRANSACTION CYCLE DATE AMOUNT 150 Tax return filed 20250905 03-17-2025 $0.00 30221-423-39404-5 806 W-2 or 1099 withholding 04-15-2025 -$3,480.00 766 Credit to your account 04-15-2025 -$1,700.00 768 Earned income credit 04-15-2025 -$4,213.00 570 Additional account action pending 03-17-2025 $0.00 I'm confused why there's a 570 code when I already verified my identity. The 570 code is dated 03-17-2025 on my transcript but when I look at the WMR tool it's showing 05/02. My processing date shows as March 17, 2025 but the ID verification was completed on 3/29. Does this mean my return is still being reviewed even after verification? I really need this $9,393.00 refund soon - it shows my withholding of $3,480.00, earned income credit of $4,213.00, and that other credit of $1,700.00. The transcript shows my account balance as -$9,393.00 which I understand means they owe me that amount. Has anyone else had a 570 code appear after identity verification was completed? Is there something else I need to do, or do I just wait?

This happened to me last year due to a name mismatch with social security records (I got married). The 570 sat there for 11 weeks before i got a letter explaining the issue. After I fixed it, took another 3 weeks to get my money. Check that all your info matches your social security card exactly.

after dealing with this exact nightmare scenario for 2 months I finally got through to the IRS using claimyr.com and found out my return was stuck in the error resolution department due to a mismatch with my dependent's SSN (I had typed it correctly but apparently there was some database issue on their end). Talking to an agent resolved it immediately and I had my refund 8 days later. Sometimes you just need a human to look at your account.

Confused about 2024 tax transcript: 846 refund code showing $7,694 coming March 5th with $9,461 withholding (code 806)

I just checked my transcript for my 2024 taxes and I'm trying to understand what I'm looking at. I filed jointly with my spouse in February and my transcript is showing some codes that I'm confused about. Below is what my Account Transcript shows: Internal Revenue Service United States Department of the Treasury This Product Contains Sensitive Taxpayer Data Request Date: 02-28-2025 Response Date: Account Transcript FORM NUMBER: 1040 TAX PERIOD: Dec. 31, 2024 ANY MINUS SIGN SHOWN BELOW SIGNIFIES A CREDIT AMOUNT ACCOUNT BALANCE: 0.00 ACCRUED INTEREST: 0.00 AS OF: Mar. 17, 2025 ACCRUED PENALTY: 0.00 AS OF: Mar. 17, 2025 ACCOUNT BALANCE PLUS ACCRUALS (this is not a payoff amount): 0.00 ** INFORMATION FROM THE RETURN OR AS ADJUSTED EXEMPTIONS: 04 FILING STATUS: Married Filing Joint ADJUSTED GROSS INCOME: 82,124.00 TAXABLE INCOME: 52,924.00 TAX PER RETURN: 1,767.00 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 Mar. 17, 2025 TRANSACTIONS CODE EXPLANATION OF TRANSACTION CYCLE DATE AMOUNT 150 Tax return filed 20250905 03-17-2025 $1,767.00 70221-443-54861-5 806 W-2 or 1099 withholding 04-15-2025 -$9,461.00 846 Refund issued 03-05-2025 $7,694.00 There's a code 846 that shows a refund of $7,694 being issued on March 5th, but there's also a code 806 for $9,461. My tax per return shows $1,767. Does this mean my refund is $7,694 and it's coming on March 5th? What exactly is the 806 code for? Is that my withholding? Our adjusted gross income is $82,124 with a taxable income of $52,924. The transcript shows a zero balance but I just want to make sure I understand everything correctly before I start planning how to use this money. Our processing date was March 17, 2025, and we filed jointly with 4 exemptions. I'm especially confused about the cycle date versus the actual date for some of these entries.

Austin Leonard

I learned way too much about reading these transcripts last year when my refund was stuck for 6 months šŸ˜­ The 806 code is your withholding - money taken from your paychecks and sent to the IRS throughout the year. In your case, they took $9,461. Your actual tax was only $1,767, so they're refunding you the difference ($7,694). The April 5 date is when they'll send the payment.

If you need help deciphering your transcript I highly recommend talking to a live IRS agent. I struggled for weeks trying to understand mine until I used Claimyr.com to get through to someone. The agent explained everything and even found a processing error that was holding up my refund. Talking to a live person from the IRS was the only thing that finally got my money released.

After calling the IRS for WEEKS and never getting through, I used this app called Claimyr and got a callback in 40 minutes.

Talking to a live agent was the only thing that worked - check out claimyr.com if you're getting nowhere like I was.

i was in the same boat literally 2 weeks ago. Those codes appeared 4/30 and 5/7 on my account. I called using claimyr.com and got through to an agent who told me they were verifying my w2 income because there was a small discrepancy with what my employer reported. She manually verified it during the call and my DDD showed up 5/21. Refund hit my account yesterday (5/25). talking to an agent directly was the only thing that worked after weeks of nothing happening.

IRS "Action Required" Message for 2023 Head of Household Return - Still Under Review Since April With No Timeline

I filed my 2023 taxes back in April as Head of Household and was expecting a decent refund. When I checked the Where's My Refund tool yesterday, I got this weird 'Action Required' message saying they received my return but are reviewing it. The message showed: "Action Required Please read the following information related to your tax situation. You may need to provide additional information to receive your full refund. We received your tax return and are reviewing it. If we need additional information, we'll mail a notice with further instructions. If you've already received a notice, please follow the instructions. If we determine no additional information is needed, we'll continue to process your refund." It also showed my "Tax Year" as 2024 and "Filing Status" as "Head of household" with an "Expected refund amount" section (though no actual amount was displayed). There was also an option to "Select another year" at the bottom. Has anyone else seen this screen? How long did it take to resolve? It's already mid-July and I'm getting anxious cause I need that money for some bills coming up. I check WMR every day but nothing changes. Does this mean they're going to audit me or is this just a standard delay? I'm worried because I really need this refund to cover some upcoming expenses. The fact that it says they might mail something makes me nervous since mail can take forever.

Mason Kaczka

Yes I had this problem. If it helps, here's a tip: Create an account on the IRS website and check your transcript instead of using WMR. The transcript will show you specific codes that tell you what's happening. Like code 570 means a hold on your account, and 971 means they sent a notice. Way more informative than the useless WMR tool.

I work for a tax firm (not in MA though) and we see this a lot. The general timeline is: - IRS takes the refund: Day 0 - IRS sends to federal offset program: 1-2 weeks - Federal offset program sends to state: 1-2 weeks - State processes and sends to custodial parent: 2-4 weeks So total time is typically 4-8 weeks, but can be longer during peak tax season which we're in right now.

WMR still showing "Action Required" after ID verification completed - should I be worried?

I completed my ID verification through ID.me back on March 21st and the IRS representative just told me today that it was successfully processed on March 25th. However, when I check the Where's My Refund tool, it still displays the same "Action Required" message that was there before I verified. Has anyone else experienced this? How long did it take for your WMR status to update after verification? Should I be concerned or is this normal? My tax return was filed in early February and I'm starting to get anxious about when I'll receive my refund.

Diego Rojas

Try checking your transcript if you can - that's where you'll see movement first. Look for codes 766 and 768 (credits) and eventually 846 (refund issued). WMR is basically useless.

If the IRS told you your verification was successful, then you're good! The WMR tool is notorious for being slow to update. Most people see the status change within 2-3 weeks of verification, but some take longer. Just keep checking your bank account rather than obsessing over WMR.
