I'm in Arizona (Mesa area) and was in sort of a similar situation. I think the Phoenix service center might be a bit behind compared to other regions. My transcript finally updated yesterday with an 846 code after filing in February. The deposit date is set for August 10th, which I desperately need for some upcoming business expenses. If you're seeing a 570 code (additional account action pending) followed by a 971 (notice issued), it usually means they're reviewing something but it's probably not a serious issue. Just a heads up - Arizona seems to be running about 3-4 weeks behind the national average for processing times right now, at least based on what I'm seeing in local tax forums.

Based on my experience and what I've seen in this community, here's what you should know: • The 570 code means additional account action pending - this is common and doesn't necessarily indicate a problem • The 971 code means they sent you a notice - did you receive anything in the mail? • Arizona processing does seem to be running behind other states this year • The average wait time between 570/971 codes and the 846 deposit code is currently running 6-10 weeks • Small business returns are taking longer across the board due to additional verification steps Hang in there - most returns with your code pattern do eventually process without requiring additional action.

Using Claimyr is like having a fast-pass at a theme park - it doesn't make the ride any shorter, but it gets you through the line faster! I was in the same boat last summer with an amendment hanging in limbo. Felt like I was throwing rocks into the Grand Canyon hoping to hear an echo. When I finally got through to an agent, just knowing my paperwork wasn't lost in a black hole was worth every penny.

I just completed the amendment process for my cryptocurrency capital gains recalculation last month. The IRS processed my Form 8949 adjustment in exactly 14 weeks from submission date. The key indicator on my transcript was the TC 971 code followed by TC 290, which signaled the adjustment was accepted. My refund was issued 9 days after the TC 846 appeared. The entire process was remarkably efficient considering the backlog the IRS is currently managing.

Tax professional here. While there's no current federal first-time homebuyer credit, there are still valuable homeowner tax benefits: • Mortgage interest deduction (if you itemize) • Property tax deduction (up to $10,000 combined with state taxes) • Home office deduction (if self-employed) • Energy efficiency credits for certain home improvements Regarding your daughter's situation, the reduced refund is completely normal this year. The temporary expanded credits from 2021-2022 have expired, and we're back to standard tax provisions. Many of my clients are experiencing similar reductions.

Omg I literally just went thru this w/ my taxes. No first-time buyer credit BUT if ur buying this year look into a Mortgage Credit Certificate (MCC) BEFORE u close! It's not a refund but gives u a tax credit every yr for the life of ur loan. Most ppl don't know about it & u have to apply thru ur state housing agency. Can't get it after closing tho, so gotta plan ahead. Saved me like $2k/yr on taxes!

My deposit was *supposed* to arrive by 8am on my DDD too, but it didn't actually post until around 3pm. The credit union rep explained that they sometimes receive multiple ACH files throughout the day, and tax refunds might be in any of them. I sort of understand why they can't predict exactly when it will post, but it's definitely frustrating when you're counting on those funds. Maybe check again around noon?

Try these steps instead of worrying: • Call your credit union and ask if they see a pending deposit • Check if your transcript still shows the same DDD • Look for any offset codes on your transcript (TOP is common) • Verify your account/routing numbers on your return If none of these show issues, just wait until tomorrow. Most DDDs arrive by end of day, but some credit unions don't process until overnight.

The IRS phone system is a nightmare this time of year. After wasting 4 hours on hold last week, I used Claimyr.com to get through (https://youtu.be/_kiP6q8DX5c). They connected me to an agent in about 15 minutes. Found out my return was flagged for income verification but the letter hadn't been sent yet. At least I know what's happening now instead of checking WMR obsessively every day.

Processing doesn't necessarily mean anything's wrong. The IRS is just overwhelmed and understaffed. I filed February 5th and just got my DDD yesterday. Hang in there - it'll come eventually.
