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 filed on February 12th, 2024 and had the exact same issue. My WMR showed a deposit date of March 3rd but transcripts were completely blank until March 1st. The money hit my account on March 4th (one day after the official date). The transcript finally updated on March 5th, showing everything processed correctly. TurboTax took their fees ($89 in my case) and the rest came through fine. The key dates to watch are your DDD (March 5th) and then 1-2 business days after for the actual deposit.
The community wisdom on this is pretty consistent: when refund transfers with fee deductions are involved, there's almost always a disconnect between WMR and transcript availability. This appears to be, at least in part, because the IRS systems that feed these different tools don't synchronize in real-time. The WMR tool might be pulling from the Refund Processing Database (RPD), while transcripts are generated from the Integrated Data Retrieval System (IDRS), which may update on different schedules. Additionally, the third-party bank handling (possibly SBTPG or Republic Bank) creates an additional layer that can somewhat obscure visibility into the process. Most users report that despite these discrepancies, funds are typically received within 1-2 business days of the stated DDD, though occasionally it might stretch to 3 days depending on your bank's processing times.

I experienced this EXACT situation in 2023. My ex claimed our son in 2022 with some SSN mismatch issues, then I claimed him in 2023 after getting full custody. The IRS held my refund for verification due to the "dependent TIN previously claimed" issue. They specifically needed Form 8332 (Release of Claim to Exemption) even though we had a court-ordered custody agreement. The terminology they use is so specific - they kept referring to "qualifying child determination" and "residency verification" during the review process. It took 11 weeks total, but I did eventually receive my full refund including the Child Tax Credit.
Did your client receive any specific notice or just the generic "refund is delayed" message on Where's My Refund? And has she been able to access her tax transcript online? I'm wondering if there are specific codes that might indicate whether this is a routine review or something specifically tied to the ex's unresolved issues from last year?

YES!!! This EXACT thing happened to me and I was SO WORRIED!! My transcript updated with a DD date of 4/12 but WMR still showed one bar for DAYS after that! I was checking it constantly and freaking out! But guess what?? The money showed up RIGHT ON TIME on 4/12 just like my transcript said! I was literally doing a happy dance in my kitchen when I checked my bank account that morning! 💃💰 WMR finally updated like 2 days AFTER I already had my money!
According to Internal Revenue Manual section 21.4.1.3, the Where's My Refund tool operates on a separate update cycle from the Master File that generates transcripts. Per IRS guidelines, taxpayers should allow up to 5 business days after a Direct Deposit date appears on a transcript before expecting WMR to reflect the updated status. This discrepancy is actually documented in IRM procedures and considered normal processing, though surprisingly not communicated clearly to taxpayers.

Have you considered what happens behind the scenes with these refund deposits? When you pay TurboTax fees separately, the IRS sends your money directly to Current without any intermediary processing, right? But did you know that even with a direct deposit, the Treasury still releases funds in batches on specific days? I've seen multiple instances where Current showed deposits 2 days early, but I've also seen them arrive exactly on the DDD. Wouldn't it be safer to plan for the 26th and be pleasantly surprised if it arrives earlier?
This is exactly what I needed to know. Thanks for breaking down the batch processing - explains why some people get early deposits and others don't even with the same bank.
I appreciate you explaining the batch processing system. Just to clarify - even with a DDD, we should watch for deposits starting 2 days before, but not be concerned if it arrives exactly on the scheduled date, correct?
Current Bank customer service confirmed to me directly that they post IRS direct deposits as soon as they receive them, regardless of the official date. They don't hold them. This is different from traditional banks. When you don't have TurboTax fees taken from your refund, the deposit comes straight from the Treasury. Your DDD is the GUARANTEED date it will arrive by, not necessarily the exact date it will post to your account.

After refreshing the IRS website for weeks with no updates, I found a Reddit post recommending Claimyr (https://claimyr.com). Used it last Tuesday when I couldn't take the uncertainty anymore. Got connected to an IRS agent in about 15 minutes instead of the 2+ hour hold times I was getting before. The agent explained my 570/971 codes were just verification holds and gave me an estimated completion date. Worth every penny since I needed to know for my financial aid deadline!

Got my DDD yesterday! Had same codes. 570 and 971. Was stuck for 3 weeks. Transcript updated Thursday night. Money hit my account this morning. Exactly 9 days after my 971 notice date. Keep checking. It's coming. System works. Just slow. Very slow.
