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!

This is the worst IRS filing season I can remember. Return took forever to process, transcripts gave no useful info, couldn't reach anyone by phone... until I found claimyr.com. Got through to an agent who explained my refund was delayed because they were verifying some info from my W-2. She pushed it through while I was on the phone with her and my DDD showed up the very next day. Talking to an agent was the only thing that actually fixed my problem.

Can confirm it works. I was skeptical but desperate after 3 months of waiting. Got through to an agent who fixed my issue on the spot.

Just an FYI to anyone getting state refunds - each state has completely different processing timelines. My federal took 3 weeks but North Carolina state took over 2 months. Some states are quick (California, Illinois seem pretty fast this year) while others are horrible (looking at you, New York and Hawaii with 4+ month waits). Check your state's tax website for their current processing times.

Last time I got a refund quickly was 2018. Ever since then its been a minimum 6 week wait even for the simplest returns. The system is completely broken.

I had to wait 11 weeks for mine this year. The most frustrating part was checking "Where's My Refund" every day and seeing the same "Your return is still being processed" message with zero additional info. Felt like screaming into the void.

Just a thought - have you checked with your bank to see if they can tell you about pending deposits? Sometimes they can see it in their system before it posts to your account.

My experience with SBTPG has been so bad this year I'm never using them again. Last year was fine but this time they've held my refund for 9 days now with no explanation.

This happened to me a few years ago! Turned out my ex-wife had filed before me and used our joint bank account from when we were married. The IRS deposit system got confused and tried to deposit both refunds to the same account, which caused mine to bounce. Had to go through the whole trace process. Check if anyone else might have used your account for their refund?

Try getting your transcript and see if there's a trace already in progress. My refund vanished too, and when I finally reached the IRS I found out they had already started an automatic trace because the bank rejected it. Look for TC 971 with action code 449 - that means a trace is happening.

After 2 months of waiting on my refund and getting nowhere with the IRS automated system, I used claimyr.com to actually reach a human at the IRS. Discovered my return was sitting in limbo due to a simple verification issue. Agent resolved it immediately and I got my refund the next week. Sometimes you just need to talk to an actual person.

I'm honestly shocked by how many ppl think the IRS has the resources to handle the volume they get. They're processing ~2.5 MILLION returns per week with Reagan-era computers and half the staff they need. The fact that anyone gets their refund within 21 days is a miracle.

This. People don't realize how ancient their systems are. They're literally running on COBOL and can't find programmers who know it anymore because it's from the 1960s.

Pro tip: If you really want to know whats happening with your refund, check your account transcript on the IRS website. It will show you exactly where your return is in processing and when your refund is scheduled. The 846 code is the one to look for - that's your refund issuance code and date.

If I had a dollar for every time the tax software refund date was wrong, I'd have enough to pay my taxes! ๐Ÿ˜‚ Only trust the IRS WMR tool date, and even then, add a few days for bank processing time.

I always tell people NOT to file in January/February. The early batches get more scrutiny from the IRS and they're testing their fraud detection systems. I intentionally wait until March to file every year and almost always get my refund within 2 weeks. Early filers are basically beta testers for the IRS systems lol.

Check the status of your state refund too! sometimes state returns get approved while federal is still processing. at least you might get part of your money sooner.

I remember being confused by this too! Here's what happened to me: 1. Filed with TurboTax in early March 2. Got a $600 advance through Credit Karma a few days later 3. My actual refund was $2800 4. About 3 weeks after filing, the remaining $2200 showed up in my Credit Karma account The advance is just a partial payment of what they expect your refund to be. You'll get the rest when the IRS finishes processing.

This helps a lot! My situation is almost identical. I got about $700 as the advance and my total refund should be around $3200, so I'm still waiting on about $2500. Hopefully it comes soon!

I had so many problems with the credit karma+turbotax combo that I actually ended up havig to call the IRS. After 2 hours of waiting I gave up and used claimyr.com - within an hour I had an agent on the phone who sorted everything out. The issue was that my refund had been sent but credit karma had the wrong routing info. Once I talked to the agent they fixed it and reissued my refund. Best money I ever spent to avoid wasting an entire day on hold!

It's a service that basically waits on hold with the IRS for you and calls you when they get through to an agent. Saved me hours of frustration. I was about to give up on ever getting my refund figured out.

The IRS has been randomly selecting returns for manual review the past few years. If you're lucky it's just an ID verify which can be done online. If you're unlucky it's a full audit which can take months. Just wait for the letter and respond promptly.

I experienced this last year. It took 2 weeks to get a letter asking me to verify my identity, then another 3 weeks for them to process it after I verified. The whole thing took about 5-6 weeks total from when I first saw that message until I got my refund. Super annoying but pretty routine these days.
