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!

According to IRS Publication 1345 (Rev. 1-2023), when a taxpayer selects a Refund Transfer product, the financial institution must make funds available within 5 business days after receipt from the IRS. Your son has grounds to file a complaint with the CFPB if it exceeds this timeframe. I recommend documenting all communication attempts with SBTG as evidence. Time is critical - file the complaint today at consumerfinance.gov/complaint/.
I was in the same boat last week - DD date of Feb 16 through SBTG and nothing for 8 days! š Called my bank thinking they were holding it, nope! Called the tax place, they just shrugged. Then suddenly on day 9 - BOOM - money appeared! No explanation, no warning, just magically showed up. The whole system feels like playing financial roulette sometimes. Hang in there, it's probably just days away!

I filed 2/20 with TaxSlayer. Got my refund on 3/4 to my Chime account. Exactly the same experience as you. No fees taken out. Simple return with just W-2 income. No credits or deductions beyond standard. Chime always posts early when they get the notification from the federal reserve. Been using them for three years now just for this feature.

Be careful assuming everyone will have the same timeline! Last year I filed on 2/15, used TaxSlayer, had Chime, and still waited 47 days for my refund. Turns out there was an income verification issue that nobody told me about until I called after 6 weeks of waiting. My friend who filed the same day got hers in 2 weeks. The IRS works in mysterious ways, and just because one person gets a quick refund doesn't mean everyone will.

I successfully navigated this exact situation last month. Here's what worked for me: 1. Document the date and time TPG received your refund. 2. Take screenshots of your TPG account status page daily. 3. Call your bank to alert them of the incoming ACH deposit. 4. If not received by the promised date, call TPG with your documentation ready. 5. Request to speak with a supervisor if the first representative can't help. 6. Have your TPG account number and personal identification ready before calling. Following these steps, my funds were released exactly on schedule and my bank processed the deposit within hours of receiving it.

This is RIDICULOUS! š” Why do we have to jump through so many hoops just to get OUR money?! I'm shocked at how complicated they make this! Next year, I'm definitely choosing direct deposit straight from the IRS instead of letting it go through a third party. The extra days might not seem like much, but when you're waiting for YOUR money, every day feels like forever!

This is a common misunderstanding. TurboTax gives you an ESTIMATED deposit date based on normal processing times. It has no special insight into your actual IRS processing status. The transcript not showing your return yet is because there's a delay between IRS acceptance and transcript updates. This happens to thousands of filers every day. Your return is probably fine, just in the processing queue. Give it 3-5 more business days before worrying.
If the return was accepted but isn't showing on transcripts yet, would calling the IRS help at this point? Or would they just see the same information we can see online?

ā¢According to the IRS website at irs.gov/refunds, phone representatives won't have any additional information until 21 days after e-filing. I was in this exact situation last year and spent hours trying to get through on the phone only to be told they couldn't see anything more than what was showing online. I feel your pain with the uncertainty!
Think of it like checking your tracking number right after dropping off a package. The postal system knows it exists, but it hasn't been scanned at the first sorting facility yet. TurboTax is telling you they handed your return to the IRS (and the IRS accepted it), but the IRS hasn't fully processed it into their main system where transcripts live. This is totally normal this time of year when they're processing millions of returns.

I would recommend they also contact their state tax agency immediately. On January 12th this year, I discovered someone filed federally using my info, and three days later they tried filing a state return too. By February 3rd, I had contacted my state tax department and they flagged my account. When the fraudulent state return came in on February 17th, it was automatically rejected. Your friends should do this by April 15th at the latest, before fraudsters try to hit state taxes too.

This happened to me last filing season and it was terrifying. I kept thinking about how someone had all my personal information. Beyond the tax stuff everyone's mentioned, make sure your friends change ALL their passwords and enable two-factor authentication everywhere. The thieves who got my tax info also tried to access my bank accounts and credit cards. I remember checking my credit report obsessively for months afterward. I'm still a bit nervous every time I get mail from the IRS, wondering if there's more problems coming.
