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!

According to IRS Publication 1445 (Rev. 2-2023), direct deposit refunds are processed through the Treasury's Financial Management Service using the Automated Clearing House (ACH) system. What most people don't realize is that the DDD on your transcript is simply the date the IRS guarantees the funds will be released to your financial institution - not when you'll receive them! If you're dealing with delayed refunds or confusion about your deposit date, Claimyr (https://claimyr.com) can connect you with an actual IRS agent quickly instead of waiting hours on hold. I was shocked at how complex the refund release process is when an agent explained it to me.
FWIW, I track this stuff obsessively every year. For 03 cycle filers w/ TT early deposit option: 2023 filing season: DDD 3/8, deposit hit 3/4 (4 days early) 2022 filing season: DDD 3/16, deposit hit 3/13 (3 days early) 2021 filing season: DDD 2/24, deposit hit 2/21 (3 days early) IME the early deposits almost always hit between 1-4am EST. Don't expect it during banking hrs - these are usually overnight batch processes.
Thanks for sharing this data! Do you know if weekends affect the timing? My DDD is on a Friday, so I'm wondering if that means the early deposit might come on a Monday or Tuesday instead of during the weekend.

Identity verification procedures are part of the IRS's Return Review Program (RRP) that screens for potential identity theft. During peak season, approximately 1.5% of returns get flagged for manual verification. When calling, you'll need to authenticate through Knowledge-Based Authentication (KBA) questions derived from your tax history and credit profile. The CP01H letter typically indicates this verification requirement. Most verifications are completed within one business day of speaking with an agent, with refund processing resuming immediately thereafter.

Filed Jan 31. Nothing for weeks. Transcript finally updated yesterday. Refund scheduled for next week. Hang in there. System's just slow.
According to the IRS.gov website under 'Where's My Refund' FAQs, a lack of transcript doesn't necessarily mean your return isn't being processed. The IRS systems that update transcripts are separate from the main processing system. You might want to check https://www.irs.gov/refunds for the most current information on processing times. They're currently showing extended timeframes for early filers.
Has anyone calculated the exact average wait time for early filers this year? I filed exactly 57 days ago and still nothing, while my friend who filed on March 12th already received her refund in 16 days. Is there data showing January filers are consistently waiting 60+ days?
This is super helpful, thank you! Was about to call them tomorrow but will give it another week based on this. Really appreciate the actual facts instead of just speculation!

Be careful with these adjustments. My transcript showed the credit. Then disappeared. Then showed again. Took three months to resolve. IRS said it was a system glitch. New format made it worse. Had to file a taxpayer advocate form. Still waiting for resolution. Check daily if you're expecting an adjustment.
This happens every few years when the IRS updates their systems. What we're all experiencing is similar to what happened in 2019 with the TCJA changes and again in 2021 with the pandemic credits. The community consensus is that it takes about 2-3 weeks to get used to the new format, but the information is all still there. The key is understanding that they've grouped similar transactions differently, not removed anything. We'll all be experts on the new format by next month!

According to the IRS website (specifically Publication 2194, Disaster Resource Guide), disaster freezes are part of their relief efforts for affected taxpayers. The IRS.gov disaster relief page lists all current qualifying disasters by state and county. You should definitely check if your area is listed there. If you're not in a disaster area, they can remove the freeze immediately, but you need to speak with someone in the right department who has the authority to do so.

•Do you know if there's any way to check online whether a disaster freeze has been applied to your account? Or do you have to call to find out?

•Just to clarify - the disaster freeze isn't always a bad thing. If you were actually affected by a disaster, it can provide filing extensions, penalty waivers, and other relief. The problem only comes when it's incorrectly applied to someone who wasn't affected or doesn't want the relief provisions.

After you get this resolved, make sure to request an account transcript about 2 weeks later. You want to confirm the freeze was actually removed, right? Sometimes these disaster codes don't get properly cleared from the system. If you see any 570 or 971 codes still on your transcript after they said they'd remove the freeze, you'll need to call back. Wouldn't you rather check than have to deal with unexpected delays later?
