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!

I had a 570 code last month and was freaking out because I needed that refund for car repairs! I called the IRS every single day for two weeks straight and FINALLY got through on a Tuesday morning right when they opened. The agent told me it was just a random review and there was nothing wrong with my return. My transcript updated 3 days later and I got my deposit exactly 8 days after that. So about 11 days from speaking with them to money in my account. Hope yours resolves quickly too!
If you check the IRS2Go app, does it show the same status as the website? Sometimes the app updates before the website does. Also, have you looked at the Tax Topic 152 on the IRS website? It explains common reasons for refund delays including the 570 code: https://www.irs.gov/taxtopics/tc152. The information there might give you some insight while you're waiting.

Be careful about assuming everything is fine! Last year my transcripts showed N/A for three weeks, and I ignored it thinking it was normal processing. Turns out there was an identity verification issue that I needed to address. The delay cost me an additional month of waiting because I didn't take action. If your transcripts don't appear by the three-week mark, I strongly recommend being proactive and checking for any verification requirements through ID.me or the IRS verification portal.
I filed on February 14th and was in the exact same boat. My transcripts showed N/A until March 1st, then suddenly everything appeared at once. Got my direct deposit on March 4th. The waiting is brutal when you're counting on that money! I had marked February 28th on my calendar as when I absolutely needed the refund for my car insurance payment. Ended up having to shuffle some bills around, but it all worked out eventually.
My transcript availability followed a similar timeline last filing season. Filed on February 12, 2023, transcript remained N/A until February 27, 2023, when it updated with TC 150 and 846 codes simultaneously. The direct deposit was received on March 2, 2023, exactly as the 846 code indicated. This pattern suggests that some returns bypass the staged processing and move directly to completion status.
Thank you for sharing this! I've been so worried, but hearing actual dates and timelines is really helpful. I'm relieved to know this might just be normal for this time of year and not something wrong with my return.

The "verify" tag disappearing is actually GOOD news! It means your identity verification was successful and they've moved your return into normal processing. I've helped dozens of people through this process last year, and this is exactly what happens. The transcripts stay N/A for a bit longer because that system updates separately from the verification system. Don't panic - you should see movement very soon, but you need to act quickly if nothing changes within 14 days!
OMG thank you for this! I've been freaking out for days because my transcripts are still N/A even though my verify tag disappeared last week. The anxiety is killing me because we need this money so badly right now. 😩
Thanks for providing this practical timeline. Much more helpful than the generic "your refund should arrive within 21 days" that the IRS website keeps telling everyone. This matches what happened with my brother's return last month too.

I might be able to provide some insight, though my experience is from earlier this filing season. I was told on February 12th that my verification letter had been sent, but it didn't arrive until February 28th - approximately 16 days later. And to make matters worse, when I called again during that waiting period, another agent told me no letter had actually been sent yet! It seems like there might possibly be some disconnect between what agents see on their screens and what's actually happening in the processing centers.
This is exactly what happens. I worked as a tax professional for 12 years. The truth is that when an agent tells you a letter was sent on a specific date, they're reading what the system shows. But in reality, there's a 3-5 day processing period before letters actually get printed and mailed. So if they say it went out April 15th, it likely was printed around April 18-20 and mailed shortly after.
Wow, this explains so much! I had no idea there was this big gap between what they see in the system and what actually happens. I always thought the IRS would be like Amazon with super precise tracking, but it's more like ordering from that sketchy website where shipping updates are more like suggestions than facts. Thanks for explaining this!
My verification experience this tax season: • Letter sent date (according to IRS): March 2 • Actual arrival date: March 13 (11 days later) • Verification completed online: March 13 • Transcript updated: March 20 • Refund deposited: March 25 Don't waste time calling repeatedly. Set up Informed Delivery with USPS to know exactly when it arrives. Watch your transcript for code 971 followed by 290 - that's when you know you're cleared.

I had something similar happen last year and it turned into a complete nightmare compared to what you're experiencing. My transcript didn't update for 2 months, then suddenly showed an audit code. Ended up waiting until JULY for my refund. At least you don't have any notices or verification requirements - that's when things really go sideways. My brother-in-law filed around the same time as you this year and just got his deposit yesterday with no warning - transcript updated and money arrived on the same day. The system is so inconsistent it's maddening.

Have you checked your transcript for any specific cycle codes? And did you claim any credits like EIC or Child Tax Credit that might put you under PATH Act restrictions? Those usually lift around February 15th, but processing can still take additional time after that date.
