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!

Used FreeTaxUSA this year. No advance needed. Filed February 12th. Full refund deposited February 21st. No fees. No hassle. No special card required. Just my regular bank account. Couldn't be happier.
If you need your refund quickly, avoid advances completely. They add exactly 5-12 days to processing time in my experience. The "advance" is usually only 25-50% of your expected refund anyway. Better option: file electronically, use direct deposit, and don't claim certain credits that slow processing. I've tracked this for 6 years straight with precise filing dates. Simple returns without advances consistently arrive faster.

I work with tax clients, and here's what typically happens with deposit delays: 1. First, verify your transcript hasn't changed (sometimes a hold gets placed after DDD is issued) 2. Next, understand that the IRS sends payment files to banks in batches, not individually 3. Then, realize that banks process these batches according to their own schedules 4. For Chime specifically, they usually post within 1-3 business days of receiving the file 5. If it's been more than 5 business days since your DDD, then it's time to contact the IRS 6. Remember that weekends don't count as business days for processing Most delays resolve themselves within 5 business days without any action needed.
Would it make any difference if I've already received state refund but federal is still pending? Does that indicate anything about my federal return status?

ā¢If I check my transcript again and see the same DDD, should I also look for any specific codes that might explain a delay? What codes would indicate a problem?

Just wanted to share a success story! I had the exact same issue with a 2/17 DDD to Chime. After checking the IRS2Go app and https://www.irs.gov/refunds daily with no updates, I finally got my deposit yesterday (2/27). According to what I found on the IRS website (https://www.irs.gov/refunds/tax-season-refund-frequently-asked-questions), they consider it on time if it's within 5 business days of the DDD. Hang in there - it's probably coming soon!
That's reassuring to hear! I've been stressing over this for days now. Glad you finally got yours!

ā¢Did you notice any pattern with when it arrived? Like was it early morning or did it just show up randomly during the day? Trying to know when to check my account.

Just to clarify a common misconception: The DDD (Direct Deposit Date) shown on your transcript with code 846 is the date the IRS releases funds to your financial institution, not necessarily when you'll see it in your account. Financial institutions like Intuit with the Turbo Card often process these payments early as a customer benefit, but they're not required to. The PATH Act requires the IRS to hold EITC/ACTC refunds until February 15th, but once released, the standard ACH processing window is 1-3 business days.
Be careful with those prepaid cards. According to multiple posts on r/tax and the IRS subreddit, some people have had their accounts temporarily frozen when large deposits hit. The anti-fraud systems can sometimes flag tax refunds as suspicious transactions. I'd recommend checking your Turbo Card app daily and having their customer service number handy just in case. Nothing worse than seeing your money is there but not being able to access it.

It's like being the only house on the block with no Christmas lights while everyone else is fully decorated! I filed on February 3rd and had ZERO transcript activity until March 22nd - felt like I was in the IRS witness protection program or something. Then suddenly everything appeared at once and my refund was deposited 5 days later. The silence doesn't necessarily mean something's wrong - sometimes you're just in a different processing lane.

If you were accepted on February 11th, 2024, and you're on a weekly cycle, you should expect updates on either March 14th or March 21st based on current processing patterns. I've been tracking multiple tax forums, and returns filed between February 8th-12th with PATH Act credits are just now starting to see movement. The IRS officially began processing PATH Act returns on February 15th, but they work through them in batches. Weekly cycles update Thursday night/Friday morning around 3:00 AM Eastern Time, so check your transcript then.

I was in your exact shoes last tax season! Filed early February, got stuck on PATH, weekly cycle, no WMR movement... the whole frustrating package. My refund finally came exactly 31 days after acceptance. The pattern I've noticed over the years is that the first batch of PATH returns takes the longest, then they speed up. I'm slightly worried about your amended return from last year though - sometimes that can flag your current year return for additional review, especially if it was recently processed.
