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 remember last year when I used H&R Block, they had a similar verification process that confused me. From what I've gathered from tax forums, these extra verification steps are actually beneficial - they're checking for common errors that trigger IRS reviews. In my previous experience, the returns that went through these extra checks actually processed faster because they had fewer issues when they reached the IRS. Have you tried checking your tax transcript directly from the IRS website? That might give you more insight than WMR.

According to the TurboTax support forum at https://ttlc.intuit.com/, this is a known issue with the 2024 software. It's related to their enhanced error-checking algorithm. The forum suggests this happens most often with returns claiming certain credits or with self-employment income. It doesn't cause delays by itself, but it might be flagging something in your return that could cause a delay. Check out the IRS processing issues page at https://www.irs.gov/newsroom/irs-operations for current known processing delays.

Here's what's actually happening with your early deposit: 1. The IRS assigned you a Direct Deposit Date of 2/26 2. They initiated the ACH transfer approximately 1-3 business days before that date 3. Your bank (Chime) received the pending deposit notification 4. Instead of waiting for the funds to fully clear, Chime fronted you the money This isn't actually your refund arriving early - it's your bank advancing you the funds based on the pending notification. Traditional banks will show the deposit on 2/26 because they wait for the actual settlement date. Some credit unions might show it a day early depending on their policies.
Have you noticed how the IRS seems to release refunds in batches by filing date? I filed on January 29th and got my DDD for 2/19, received via Chime on 2/17. My brother filed February 1st and got his DDD for 2/26 - same batch as you. Seems like they're processing weekly batches for straightforward returns. Did anyone who filed in early February get a different DDD than 2/26? Or is the pattern holding?

I had the same issue and finally got through to the IRS after using Claimyr (https://claimyr.com). Waited on hold for over 3 hours the traditional way with no luck, but Claimyr got me connected to an agent in about 25 minutes. The agent told me there was a small verification flag on my account that was causing the delay, but nothing serious. They cleared it while I was on the phone and my refund was processed within a week. Worth every penny not to waste days trying to get through.
For real? I've been trying to call them for weeks but keep getting the "high call volume" message and getting disconnected.
100% serious. I was in the exact same situation - kept getting hung up on after waiting forever. Claimyr uses some system to hold your place in line and calls you when they get an agent. Saved me so much frustration.

I've been around this sub long enough to see the NetSpend timing question come up every tax season. Here's what I've gathered from hundreds of posts: about 60% get it a day early, 30% get it on the exact DDD, and about 10% experience a delay of some kind. I had NetSpend for years and personally always got mine early, but there's always those outlier cases where something weird happens. Just prepare yourself mentally for the actual date on your transcript, and if it comes early, consider it a bonus!

Have you tried checking the NetSpend Facebook page? According to their customer service posts on there, they release Treasury deposits as soon as they receive them, which is often before the official date. The IRS Direct Deposit info page (https://www.irs.gov/refunds/direct-deposit-limits) also mentions that while they provide a specific date, your financial institution determines exactly when funds become available. Might be worth giving NetSpend a call directly.

ā¢Thanks for sharing that link! I didn't know the IRS had a specific page about direct deposit timing.

ā¢It's like waiting for water to boil - it feels like forever until it happens! In my case, it was like the IRS sent my refund on a slow horse that finally arrived at NetSpend a day before my DDD. The money was there when I woke up, like magic. Just hang in there!

Be careful about counting on refund timing. My brother got his deposit notification. Money showed pending. Bank put a 5-day hold on it. Then IRS pulled it back due to verification issues. Took 2 more months to resolve. Don't spend it until it's fully cleared your account and the hold period is over.

Did you have any credits that might have delayed processing? Step 1: Did you claim EITC? Step 2: Any Child Tax Credit? Step 3: Recovery Rebate Credit from previous years? Step 4: Education credits? I'm trying to figure out why some people get theirs so quickly while others wait months...
