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 ā 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!

This is normal. Happens every year. System overload. Try again tomorrow. Different browsers help. Mobile sometimes works better. Don't panic. Your return isn't lost. Just a display issue. WMR isn't connected to main IRS database directly. It's just a status tool.
This happened to me last month and I was FREAKING OUT because I needed that money for my car repair! š I kept checking 3-4 times a day and getting more stressed. Then suddenly on a Saturday morning it was back to normal showing my status, and I got my deposit the following Wednesday. The emotional rollercoaster was REAL but it all worked out. Hang in there! ā¤ļø

Pro tip: If you do end up waiting the full 10 weeks, you'll likely get interest added to your refund. Small consolation, but at least it's something. Current IRS interest rate is 7% annually, which is better than most savings accounts.
Did you file with a tax preparer or software? Sometimes they can provide insight on common errors that might have triggered the review. Also check if you have any past due debts that might cause an offset - that sometimes triggers additional review.

ā¢I used TurboTax like I do every year. No debts that I know of! My return is pretty simple - W2, child tax credit, nothing fancy. That's why I'm so confused about what could possibly be wrong.
Could be identity verification then. The IRS has been extra cautious with Child Tax Credit claims the last two years. Might be worth calling specifically about ID verification - sometimes that's handled by a different department.

Yes. Still showing PATH. Filed January 25th. Claimed EITC. Transcript shows processing. No errors. No letters. Just waiting. Others reporting same issue.
I went through this exact same situation last year and the year before. In 2022, I waited 3 months past the PATH Act deadline for my refund. In 2023, it was 2 months. This year I'm still waiting after filing January 24th. I've learned that calling rarely helps unless there's an actual issue they need to resolve. The PATH delay is just their standard operating procedure now, especially if you have a business with Schedule C income and claim EITC.

When I was in this situation (waited over 2 months last year), I finally got tired of checking and called the IRS. Spent 3 days trying to get through before I found Claimyr (https://claimyr.com). They got me connected to an actual IRS agent in about 15 minutes. The agent confirmed my return was just in normal processing and nothing was flagged. Got my refund about a week later. Worth it just for the peace of mind.
Might have to try that fr cause this waiting game got me stressed. Thanks for the tip šÆ

Check your Return Transcript instead of Account Transcript. Sometimes one will update before the other. Also, try checking on a Tuesday morning - that's when a lot of the weekly updates happen in the IRS system.

OMG I was JUST about to post this exact same question!!! My red circle appeared yesterday morning and I'm DYING waiting for my refund to hit! Last year I got the circle on a Tuesday and had money by Thursday, but this time it's different and I'm so anxious about it! I've literally set up alerts on my banking app and check it every hour. This money is going straight to catching up on bills from when I was sick in January. The waiting is TORTURE!

Per IRS Publication 2043, the standard timeframe for direct deposit after refund approval is 1-5 business days. Weekends and holidays are excluded from this calculation. My red circle appeared on March 15, 2024, and funds were deposited on March 19, 2024. Four business days is within normal parameters and does not indicate any processing anomalies.
