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!

This is nothing compared to what happened with amended returns last year. My friend waited 6 months for his check, while my rejected direct deposit only took 2 weeks to be reissued. The IRS is actually much faster with bounced deposits than with other issues. Look at it this way - at least you're not dealing with an identity verification hold. Those take 9 weeks minimum compared to your 2-3 week wait.

This happens a lot. IRS has a system. Takes about 3 weeks. Maybe longer. Depends on staffing. Can't speed it up. Just wait. Check your mail daily. No tracking available. Sorry about that.
Have you checked if your transcript updated with a 971 code? When my direct deposit was rejected, my transcript showed a 971 notice issued about 5 days after the failed deposit date. Then the check arrived about 10 days after that notice date. Did your transcript update at all since the DDD passed?

I had the exact same issue on March 12th, 2024. Called the verification hotline on March 13th but they couldn't help. Made an appointment at my local office for March 20th. Brought my ID, social security card, and tax return copy. Was verified in 15 minutes. Transcript updated on March 25th. Refund deposited on April 1st. Don't waste time waiting for the online option - just make the appointment now. The offices are booking 2-3 weeks out right now.
The IRS verification system is like a temperamental old car - sometimes it starts right up, sometimes it needs a few days to warm up. If you've tried logging in through both the ID verify portal AND the regular account access, I'd give it 48 hours before making other plans. But having a backup plan is smart - like keeping jumper cables in your trunk. Call the dedicated ID verify line at 800-830-5084 first, and only if that fails, then make the in-person appointment. The phone route is generally faster than waiting for an in-person slot, which can take weeks in some locations.

Let me clarify what's likely happening based on that 822 code: ā¢ The IRS initially applied your overpayment somewhere it shouldn't have gone ā¢ They've now recognized this error and are correcting it ā¢ This is actually good news - they're fixing a mistake ā¢ You'll likely see a refund issued (code 846) within 2-3 weeks ā¢ No action is required on your part unless it doesn't resolve This is fairly common and usually resolves itself automatically. The system is just correcting an internal error.
Cole Roush
I've seen this happen when the IRS initially applies a refund to the wrong year or account. According to https://www.irs.gov/individuals/get-transcript, you should check your transcripts for all recent tax years to see if there's a corresponding debit. Time is important here - the correction process usually takes 2-3 weeks, but if you don't see resolution within 30 days, you should definitely contact them before the issue gets more complicated.

Dealt w/ this last month for my 2022 refund! TPG can't give u an IRS trace # but they CAN provide: - Date IRS sent $ to them - Date they processed your $ - Where they sent it (acct #, etc) - Their internal tracking # IMPORTANT: If ur refund was sent >1yr ago, u need to request archived records which takes 3-5 biz days vs regular records. Call their cust svc (800-446-8848) & specifically ask for "archived 2022 refund transfer records" - they'll email u the docs u need for IRS trace. DON'T wait - IRS has time limits on traces!
This is so helpful! I went through something similar with Republic Bank Tax Refund Solutions last year. They kept telling me to contact the IRS, and the IRS kept telling me to contact them. It was a nightmare of circular references until I finally got the right documentation from the bank. Took almost 4 months to get my refund sorted out.

I successfully traced a missing 2022 refund that went through TPG earlier this year! The key was getting the right documentation from both sides. TPG provided me with their processing records showing they never actually received my refund from the IRS (despite the IRS claiming they sent it). I submitted those TPG documents with my Form 3911 to the IRS, and within 6 weeks they located my refund and reissued it. The process wasn't quick, but it worked. Have you already confirmed with the IRS that they issued your refund?

Do you know why they sent a check instead of direct deposit? I'm in a similar situation (verified on 3/10) and wondering if I'll get DD or paper check. My bank info hasn't changed since last year.

ā¢Not OP, but sometimes after verification they default to paper checks as an extra security measure. It's like the IRS saying "we trust you, but we're still keeping one eye open" š

I went through this last year and the year before. The ID verification system has become pretty standard for many filers. In 2022 it took me 8 weeks after verification to get my refund. Last year it was about 3 weeks. This year it seems they've improved their processes quite a bit based on your timeline and what I'm seeing from others.
