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!

If you're really concerned about this (which you shouldn't be), you could always print out your SSA earnings record and keep it with your tax documents. This is like keeping both the receipt and the credit card statement when you make a purchase - a bit excessive but gives peace of mind. I've been filing taxes for 20+ years and have seen much larger discrepancies that never caused problems. Compare this to a bank reconciliation where pennies can be off - accountants have a materiality threshold, and $1 is well below what anyone would consider material.
Don't get too comfortable with discrepancies. While $1 won't trigger anything, I've seen people ignore small issues that were symptoms of bigger problems. My cousin ignored a $5 difference last year, turned out his employer had been reporting his income under two slightly different SSNs for years. Check your Social Security statement annually. The small difference is fine, but make it a habit to verify your earnings record regularly - especially since you're managing your mom's finances too. Small errors compound over time if not caught early.

According to Internal Revenue Code §6428B, the Recovery Rebate Credit is technically an advance refund of a 2023 tax credit. The verification letter you received, despite lacking a form number, constitutes an official IRS communication per Treasury Regulation 301.7502-1. While not explicitly labeled as Notice 1444-C, it serves the same documentation purpose. Maintain this correspondence with your tax records for a minimum of three years as stipulated in Publication 17, Page 72.
Has anyone figured out why the IRS sends these letters without clear form numbers? It seems like they're making it intentionally confusing by not labeling communications consistently. Is there any way to request a properly labeled version that would be more useful for record-keeping?
This is actually by design in certain cases. The IRS uses different letter formats based on processing centers and specific situations. While standardized notices like CP2000 follow consistent formatting, informational letters often vary. The content is what matters legally, not the form designation. Your letter is completely valid for documentation purposes regardless of having a specific form number.

FYI - most states have diff processing times rn. Check ur state's DOR website for accurate timeline. NYS = 2-3 wks, CA = 3-4 wks, TX = no state income tax, IL = 4-6 wks. If u filed w/out errors + chose DD, should be faster than paper/check. Make sure u verified ur ID if ur state requires it (many do now). Some states also have refund delays if u claimed certain credits. Hope this helps!
I'm curious - did anyone receive any notification emails from their state's tax department? I filed in late February and set up email notifications for every step, but haven't received anything beyond the initial acceptance confirmation. I'm wondering if I should be concerned about this silence or if it's normal for state processing?

I filed on January 24, 2024 and was accepted immediately. My transcript showed processing date of February 19, 2024, but I've had zero movement since then. After waiting exactly 45 days, I decided to call the IRS on March 9, 2024. Spent 3 hours on hold before getting disconnected. Tried again on March 10, 2024 - same result. Finally used Claimyr (https://claimyr.com) on March 11, 2024 and got through to an agent in 22 minutes. They confirmed my return was in the processing queue with no flags but couldn't give me a timeline. At least I know it's not lost in the system now.

I had to call the IRS urgently last week for a similar situation. According to Internal Revenue Manual 13.1.7.2.3, taxpayers with medical hardships qualify for expedited assistance. I needed to submit Form 911 (Taxpayer Advocate request) after documenting my medical necessity. Don't wait - call first thing tomorrow morning at 7:00am exactly when they open! Every minute counts when dealing with their phone system.

Just to clarify - are you trying to check on a refund that was already approved but hasn't arrived, or are you trying to find out why your return is still being processed? Those might require different approaches. Have you already checked the "Where's My Refund" tool on the IRS website or the IRS2Go app? Sometimes those have more updated information than what phone representatives can access.
