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!

Oh come on, you're making it sound way worse than it probably is! Most of these notices are routine! I got a similar notice last year and it was just asking me to verify my identity online. Took 15 minutes to resolve and my refund came two weeks later. Let's not scare people unnecessarily!

The consensus among most experienced filers here is that the transcript processing date is just the beginning of the actual processing. Those N/A boxes will typically update 7-14 days after that date appears. It's frustrating, but the IRS systems were designed decades ago and don't communicate with each other in real-time like modern systems. Just part of the annual tax season fun we all get to enjoy.
This is correct. The IRS uses multiple database systems that don't always sync immediately. The master file (which controls your transcript) updates first, while the account display system (which controls those boxes) updates later. It's inefficient but normal.
Does filing early in the season versus later affect how quickly these systems sync up? I've heard January/February filers often wait longer than March filers.
Great news! I just went through this exact situation and can tell you exactly what happens next. My transcript showed 2/12 as the processing date, top boxes stayed N/A for 9 days, then EVERYTHING updated at once on 2/21. Refund hit my account on 2/23! Based on your 2/26 date, you should see movement by this weekend or early next week. The system is working - it's just not very transparent about what's happening behind the scenes. Hang in there!
Did you get any interim status updates on Where's My Refund during that waiting period, or did it just jump straight to approved/sent?
Thank you for sharing this specific timeline! It's so helpful to see real examples with actual dates rather than just vague estimates. Makes the waiting game a little more bearable.

Just went through this! The PATH Act hold is automatically applied to returns with EITC or ACTC to prevent fraud, while the 1095-A request is related to the Premium Tax Credit reconciliation process. You need to submit Form 8962 along with your 1095-A to reconcile your advance premium tax credits. My transcript showed TC 570 (refund hold) until I submitted these documents, then updated with TC 571 (hold released) about 10 days later. Such a relief when it finally processed!
Per Internal Revenue Code §36B, taxpayers who receive advance premium tax credits must reconcile those amounts using Form 8962, which requires the information from Form 1095-A. I experienced this last year and found that the quickest resolution is to immediately provide the requested documentation. While the PATH Act mandates the IRS hold refunds involving EITC/ACTC until mid-February (per IRC §6402(m)), the 1095-A issue is an independent verification requirement that will continue to delay your refund until addressed.

Getting your tax refund is like waiting for a package that has no tracking updates. You know it's coming, but the waiting feels like forever. Checking transcripts is like having the secret tracking number that actually works while everyone else is just refreshing the basic tracking page. Glad you found the shortcut!

Look, I know it's frustrating, but this is completely normal for returns with both marketplace forms and ID verification. The IRS systems don't talk to each other efficiently. Your return is in the system - it's just not showing up in the transcript database yet. The good news is that the WMR status change means you're moving forward. I've seen hundreds of posts like yours over the years, and they almost always resolve within a few weeks after the WMR status changes back to processing. I know it's stressful, especially when you're counting on that money for tuition, but hang in there. This is just how the system works unfortunately.

Your tax return is like a package that's been routed through multiple distribution centers. It arrived at the main facility (filed on Feb 1), then got sent to the special handling department (marketplace form), then to security verification (ID.me), and now it's back on the main processing line. The tracking system (transcript) hasn't updated yet because it's still making its way through the final sorting area, but the package tracker (WMR) shows it's moving again. I had the exact same situation last year - filed Feb 3rd, had to do marketplace form correction on Feb 10th, identity verification on Feb 17th, WMR went back to processing on Feb 25th, and transcript finally updated on March 8th. Refund arrived March 11th. So about 5 weeks from filing to refund with similar complications.

•That package analogy makes so much sense! Thank you for explaining it this way - I finally understand why everything seems so disconnected. Really appreciate you sharing your timeline too!

•When you say your transcript updated on March 8th, did it just suddenly show everything at once? Or did it gradually start showing information? I'm trying to figure out if I should keep checking daily or if it will be obvious when something changes.
