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!

SBTPG delays happen every year. Common issue. Not a reason to panic yet. Check your bank account directly. Sometimes money arrives before status updates. Give it until Monday. Business days matter here. Weekend processing is slower. Call Tuesday if nothing changes. Keep documentation of everything. Screenshot your transcript. Note all contact attempts.
I was in the exact same situation last week. Waited 4 days past my DDD with SBTPG showing unfunded. I was getting really nervous about it. Then suddenly on day 5, the money just appeared in my account without any status change on SBTPG's website. Their system seems to be lagging behind actual transfers this year. I wouldn't worry too much until it's been at least 5 business days past your DDD.

Quick heads up for anyone needing their actual 1040 forms ASAP! 😬 I learned this the hard way last year when my student loan servicer needed verification. The transcript system is great for many things, but it's like asking for a photograph and getting a written description instead. If you need your ACTUAL 1040 form within the next month, don't wait for the IRS 4506 process - it's currently taking 90+ days instead of the advertised 75 due to backlog. Check your tax software account first or call your tax preparer immediately!
The community consensus is correct - transcripts don't contain viewable copies of your actual 1040 forms. I verified this with the IRS on April 3rd, 2024, after spending considerable time searching for this feature. According to the representative I spoke with, this limitation is by design, as the transcript system was created to verify specific tax data points, not to serve as a document repository. For those who need the actual forms, maintaining your own records is essential. I personally keep digital copies of all tax returns going back to 2015, organized by tax year in a secure cloud storage solution.

You might want to try the Taxpayer Advocate Service if you're experiencing financial hardship because of this delay. I'm not completely sure they can help with verification issues specifically, but they might be able to expedite the process if you're facing eviction, utility shutoffs, or other urgent financial needs. Their number is 877-777-4778, but prepare documentation of your hardship before calling - they're overwhelmed right now with the tax season ending soon.
This happened to me last year but with an even longer delay. Filed in February, stuck until MAY! Compared to my previous years when I got my refund within 2 weeks, it was maddening. Turned out I needed to verify my identity, but unlike most people who get letters, mine never came. The frustration you're feeling is completely valid - I remember checking WMR obsessively every morning at 3am hoping for a change. Hang in there!

According to Internal Revenue Manual 21.5.6.4.7, the 570 freeze code temporarily prevents credit or refund processing while the 971 indicates that correspondence has been issued. Per IRM 5.19.9.2.3, daily cycle accounts typically update overnight, with transaction codes posting within 24-48 hours of processing. The specific notice you'll receive is likely a CP05, requesting verification of income, withholding, or credits claimed. This is standard procedure under the PATH Act provisions codified in IRC §6402(m) which mandates additional verification for certain refundable credits.
I'm not entirely convinced this is just routine. My accountant warned me that these particular code combinations with this timing often indicate a manual review. Last year it took 11 weeks from the 971 date to get my refund, despite everyone saying it would be 2-3 weeks.
My 570/971 appeared on February 8th and February 15th respectively. I received a CP05 notice dated February 15th that arrived on February 24th. My transcript updated with code 571 (freeze released) on March 12th and code 846 (refund issued) on March 14th with a direct deposit date of March 19th. The entire process took 39 days from filing to refund.
Just went through this exact scenario. TC570 dated 02/19/2024, TC971 dated 02/26/2024. I'm on daily processing cycle 20241105. My transcript updated overnight between 03/11/2024-03/12/2024 with TC571 (freeze release) and TC846 (refund issued) with DDD of 03/14/2024. The hold was due to income verification under PATH Act protocols. No correspondence was required in my case - system verification was completed automatically. Total processing time was 26 days from acceptance to deposit.

I've been tracking WMR patterns since January 29th, 2024, and there's no consistent update schedule this tax season. Some people see updates on Tuesday nights, others on Friday mornings. I checked with a friend who filed on February 21st and her WMR updated on March 12th at 3:45am. Another friend who filed February 18th is still waiting with no updates as of March 25th. I'm concerned the IRS might be experiencing system delays that they're not publicly acknowledging.

Isn't it fascinating how much collective knowledge we have here about WMR patterns? The official IRS stance is that WMR updates once daily, but we all know it's more nuanced than that. I've seen returns update within hours of filing during off-peak times, while others take days despite being identical in complexity. The system clearly prioritizes certain return types and processing centers over others, regardless of what they officially state.
