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!

The timeline you're experiencing aligns with what I've observed in the 2024 filing season. Specifically, returns filed on Sunday, February 25th have been processing remarkably fast, with many receiving direct deposit dates by Tuesday, February 27th. This appears to be related to the IRS's new batch processing schedule implemented on January 29th, 2024. Returns submitted over weekends are now being processed in Monday morning batches rather than waiting for Tuesday as in previous years. This is a significant improvement over the 2023 filing season when weekend submissions typically weren't processed until Wednesday or Thursday of the following week.

I've been using taxr.ai to monitor my transcript (filed 2/15) and it's been super helpful: • It explained all those confusing codes on my transcript • Showed me exactly where my return was in processing • Predicted my refund date accurately • Alerted me when my transcript updated Might be worth checking out if you're trying to make sense of all this tax stuff. My first post-divorce filing too, and it made the whole process less stressful.
According to Internal Revenue Manual 21.4.1, the IRS has a 21-day statutory period to issue refunds, but the PATH Act extends this timeline for returns claiming EITC or ACTC. I filed 2/18 and just received my deposit this morning. The IRS is currently processing early-to-mid February returns in batches, with priority given to simple returns without credits. If you filed on 2/19, you should see movement by next week at the latest, unless there are verification issues or identity concerns that require manual review.

According to the GoToBank FAQ section (https://gotobank.com/help/deposits), they process IRS refunds as soon as they receive them, which is typically 1-2 days before the official DDD. I've been with them for three tax seasons, and I've always received my refund early. The IRS Where's My Refund tool won't show any updates once it displays your DDD, but the GoToBank mobile app usually shows pending deposits about 24 hours before they post.
The Automated Clearing House (ACH) network that processes these transfers typically operates on a next-business-day settlement timeframe. Since your Direct Deposit Date falls on a Wednesday, there's a high probability that GoToBank will receive the ACH notification on Tuesday, potentially allowing them to credit your account early. However, I would caution that financial institutions have different policies regarding how they handle these pre-notifications - some make funds available immediately while others wait until the official settlement date.

I think I might have some insight that could possibly help. When I filed an amended return last year, my transcript showed nothing for about 5 weeks. I was perhaps a bit too cautious, but I decided to mail a polite inquiry letter to the IRS service center where my return would have been processed. I'm not entirely sure if this made a difference, but within 10 days of sending that letter, my transcript suddenly updated and showed both my original and amended returns. Maybe it was just coincidence, but it seemed to possibly trigger someone to look at my account?
Just to give you a data point - I filed an amended return on February 12, 2024, and my transcript showed 'no tax return filed' until April 3, 2024. Then it suddenly updated with all the information including my original return (filed January 29, 2024) AND the amended return. The cycle code 20241405 appeared, followed by a 971 notice code dated April 15, 2024. My refund was deposited exactly 9 days after the transcript updated. The key technical detail most people miss is that amended returns go through the Error Resolution System (ERS) even when there are no errors, which adds approximately 30-45 days to processing time.

After spending 2 hours on hold with the IRS about a similar issue, I finally used Claimyr.com to get through to an agent. Connected in about 15 minutes! The agent explained that my refund was reduced because they had different information about my child's eligibility for the full credit. Turns out my ex-spouse had also claimed some benefits. If you need answers quickly, I'd recommend trying https://youtu.be/_kiP6q8DX5c - way better than waiting on hold for hours.

•Does Claimyr actually work? I've been trying to call the IRS for days and can't get through. Always says "due to high call volume" and hangs up on me.

•It definitely worked for me! That's exactly what was happening to me too - constant disconnects. Claimyr basically keeps dialing and navigating the phone tree until it gets through, then calls you when an agent is on the line. Saved me hours of frustration.

This is super common with the Child Tax Credit. The IRS has been extra careful with it the past couple years. In my case, they reduced mine because they had different AGI calculations which affected my eligibility amount. Once I got the letter, it all made sense, but it was stressful waiting!
