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!

I'm in a similar situation and wondering if anyone knows what happens if you move after filing? I filed in January and then had to change addresses in February. I'm worried that if they sent a verification letter, it might have gone to my old address, just like what happened with my state tax refund last year.

Just to clarify something that hasn't been mentioned yet - if you do need to verify and decide to call instead of using the online portal, make sure you're calling the specific number for identity verification (800-830-5084). That's different from the general IRS number, and the hold times are usually shorter. When I called in March, I only waited about 35 minutes, which is practically lightning speed for the IRS.

I'm actually going through a similar situation right now! I checked the wrong box on my grad school financial aid form in March. I'm feeling so anxious about it! What worked for me was: 1) Email financial aid office immediately with subject line "URGENT: Tax Filing Status Correction" 2) Call them daily until you speak to someone 3) Submit a formal correction request through their system 4) Provide a copy of your tax return or IRS transcript as proof 5) Get written confirmation they've updated your record. Don't just assume they'll fix it! I'm still waiting for mine to be fully resolved but at least they've acknowledged the issue.

Have you had any issues with your financial aid being delayed because of this correction process?

I fixed a similar mistake last year. Here's what worked: got my tax transcript from IRS.gov, highlighted the filing date, wrote a brief explanation letter, submitted both to financial aid office, followed up with a phone call 3 days later. They fixed it in their system within 24 hours of my call. No penalties. No delays in my aid. The key was providing clear documentation and being persistent with follow-up. Don't just send an email and hope for the best - make sure a human actually reviews your correction request.

0 coins

This is really helpful information. Did they require any specific format for the explanation letter or was it just informal?

0 coins

Did you have to go through the formal correction process on the FAFSA website first, or did you work directly with your school's financial aid office?

Have you received any letters or notices from the IRS? Sometimes they send a letter requesting additional information but don't update the online systems right away. Also, did you check both account transcript and return transcript? Sometimes one will update before the other.

The N/A transcript with a processing delay message is a classic indicator of a CP05 review. This is an automatic compliance check where the IRS verifies income, withholding, and credits claimed. The cycle typically takes 45-60 days from filing date. Your 'as of date' of 4/26 aligns with this timeframe from your 1/29 submission.

The IRS website actually has a page that explains these transcript codes: https://www.irs.gov/individuals/understanding-your-tax-record. The 570 is definitely a hold, but it's often temporary. You can also check the Tax Time Guide on IRS.gov which mentions that many returns this year are being selected for additional review due to identity theft prevention measures. Most of these reviews are resolved automatically without any action needed from you.

Is there possibly a date associated with the 971 code on your transcript? I'm wondering if that might indicate when the notice will be sent or when the issue might be resolved?

Let me explain how the SBTPG process actually works, since there's a lot of misinformation: Step 1: IRS approves your refund and assigns a DDD (in your case 2/22) Step 2: IRS releases funds to SBTPG (usually midnight of your DDD) Step 3: SBTPG verifies the amount matches what they expected Step 4: SBTPG deducts their fees and TurboTax fees Step 5: SBTPG initiates ACH transfer to your bank/Cash App Step 6: Your bank/Cash App processes the incoming ACH Cash App is typically faster at Step 6 than traditional banks. Some people get lucky and SBTPG processes them a day early, but don't count on it.

Warning from someone who's been through this: Never pay TurboTax fees from your refund if you can avoid it! I paid $39 extra last year for the "privilege" of having SBTPG hold my money for 2 extra days. This year I paid TurboTax directly with a credit card and my refund came straight from IRS to my bank - got it 3 days BEFORE my official DDD! The SBTPG middleman just adds delays and their website never shows accurate info. Check https://igotmyrefund.com/forums for real-time reports from others with your same DDD.
