Anyone else think its wild that we have to jump through all these hoops just to pay our taxes? Like, take my money already! š
Right?? It's like trying to give someone a gift but they make you solve a Rubik's cube first š
Just wanted to add - if you're doing this over the phone, make sure you're in a quiet place with good cell reception. I had to restart my verification call twice because the connection kept cutting out and they couldn't hear me properly. Also, have a pen and paper ready to write down any reference numbers or next steps they give you. The whole process is stressful enough without having to worry about technical issues!
I had my DDD on April 3rd, 2024 with CashApp and it actually hit at 1:23am that morning! Much better than last year when I had a May 17th, 2023 DDD that didn't arrive until 4pm. The IRS has been processing refunds faster this year with most people seeing deposits early morning of their DDD. One tip: make sure your CashApp is fully verified with all identity documents submitted or they might delay deposits.
I've been using CashApp for tax refunds for 3 years now and here's what I've learned about DDD timing: ⢠Midnight deposits are rare - most hit between 2am-6am ⢠CashApp doesn't show "pending" for tax refunds like they do for regular deposits ⢠If your transcript shows 846 code with tomorrow's date, it's definitely coming ⢠The IRS releases funds in waves throughout the day, not all at once Last year my DDD was on a Wednesday and it hit my CashApp at 4:47am. The year before it was around 2:15am. I'd recommend checking first thing in the morning rather than staying up until midnight. Also make sure your CashApp app is updated - I've heard some people had issues with outdated versions not showing deposits immediately. Good luck! The wait is almost over.
To all those having trouble reaching a human at the IRS. I just ran across this video that gave me a shortcut to reach a human. Hope it helps! https://youtu.be/wMf29SmRU-I
I received a 4464C letter last month and was initially worried, but it turned out to be routine verification. The IRS just needed to confirm some information from my W-2s and 1099s. I responded within the 30-day timeframe they gave me, and my refund was processed about 3 weeks later. Don't panic if you get one - just make sure to respond promptly with the requested documentation. You can also check your account transcript online at irs.gov to see any updates on your case status.
Unpopular opinion: maybe we should all just adjust our withholdings so we don't get big refunds? Then we wouldn't have to deal with this stress every year. Just a thought š¤
easier said than done my friend. some of us rely on that refund to catch up on bills or make big purchases. not everyone can just adjust their budget on a whim
I'm in the same boat - filed in early March and still waiting! One thing that helped me was setting up IRS account online at irs.gov. You can see more detailed info about your return status there than just the basic "Where's My Refund" tool. Also, if you have any dependents or claimed certain credits, those can add processing time. The IRS website says they're still working through a backlog, so unfortunately we just have to be patient. But definitely keep checking every few days - sometimes the status updates suddenly!

Hey OP, just curious - why do you need an expedited verification letter? I'm in a similar boat and wondering if I should be worried about timeframes.

Have you tried using the IRS "Get Transcript" online service? You can sometimes get verification letters digitally through your IRS account without having to call. Go to irs.gov and look for "Get Transcript Online" - it might save you the phone hassle entirely. I used it last month and got what I needed in minutes instead of hours on hold.
