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!

I've been tracking refund patterns for exactly 7 years now, and I've noticed that about 12% of filers experience what you did - getting refunds without WMR updates. Last year, the average processing time was 19 days, but about 8% of filers received their refunds in under 14 days. The IRS processed approximately 111.6 million refunds last year with an average refund amount of $3,167. Your 13-day turnaround puts you in the top 10% fastest refunds this season!
The IRS actually publishes weekly filing season statistics on their website. They show how many returns they've processed, average refund amounts, and year-over-year comparisons. They don't publish the detailed processing time breakdowns, but tax professionals and forums like this track patterns.
Just to add to this - the IRS also releases their Projected Weekly Refund Release dates internally, which sometimes get shared publicly. These show which cycle codes are being processed in which weeks. Your refund timing suggests you were part of cycle 20240708 or 20240709.
Instead of relying on WMR or transcript access, I've found that setting up IRS text alerts works better for many people. Text "IRS" to 40400 to start the process. You'll need to verify your identity, but then you'll get automatic updates about your refund status. I've been doing this for the past three tax seasons and always get a text 2-3 days before my refund hits my account.

Be careful with this situation. Last year my refund showed up in my account before WMR updated, and I thought everything was fine. Two weeks later I got a letter saying there was an error in my return calculation and they were adjusting my refund amount. Had to pay back $340! š Not saying that will happen to you, but might be worth checking your transcript just to make sure everything processed correctly. The IRS giveth and the IRS taketh away, lol.

Has your friend checked the IRS2Go app or the Where's My Refund tool on IRS.gov? Sometimes those will update with slightly different information than what shows on the transcript. I'm curious if it shows the same 3/28 date or something different?

In February 2023, I filed through TurboTax with fees coming out and a refund advance. My transcript showed a DDD of 2/22/23, but did I get it that day? No. Did I get it the day before? Also no. I actually received it at exactly 3:17 PM on 2/22/23. Why such a specific time? Because that's when TurboTax processed the batch that included my refund. They receive the funds from the IRS, deduct their fees, then initiate a transfer to your bank account. With Credit Karma being owned by Intuit (same as TurboTax), your friend might actually see it process slightly faster than I did, but I wouldn't count on it arriving before the 28th. Wouldn't it be nice if the system were more transparent about all these behind-the-scenes steps?

The "no info available" part is actually the key here. Real offsets have paper trails! Idaho's system is actually pretty good about documentation - unlike the DMV where your paperwork disappears into the void, never to be seen again š. This sounds more like a processing error that the tax commission needs to fix. They're required by state law to provide offset information, so if there's "no info" then something's broken in their system.
Liam Duke
From my experience working with Idaho tax issues, here's what you need to know: ā¢ Idaho uses an automated system called TRIPS (Tax Refund Intercept Program System) to match refunds against outstanding debts ā¢ Common offset sources include: child support, unemployment overpayments, college tuition, state taxes from previous years ā¢ You should have received a pre-offset notice before filing ā¢ If no notice was received, you can appeal within 30 days of discovering the offset ā¢ Request a debt verification letter from both Tax Commission and the agency claiming the debt ā¢ If it's a legitimate debt, you can often set up a payment plan for the remainder Don't wait too long to address this - the appeal window is limited!
Natasha Petrov
Does the 971 code mean they're sending a letter? I have the same codes. Should I wait for mail before calling? This is stressful.

Have you considered setting up an appointment at your local Taxpayer Assistance Center? They can often resolve these issues in person without the endless phone waits. Isn't it better to speak to someone face-to-face rather than battling the phone system? I was in a similar situation last year and managed to get everything sorted in a single visit. The key is booking the appointment online rather than trying to walk in.

ā¢This is solid advice. TACs can help with tons of issues that phone reps can't. Just make sure u bring proper ID (driver's license/passport) and any relevant tax docs. They're way less backed up than the phone lines.

ā¢How long did you have to wait for an appointment though? I checked last month and the earliest slot was 6 weeks out. By that point my issue had already resolved itself. Did you find a way to get in sooner?
