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!

I'm in almost the exact same boat - filed Feb 17, using Chime, claimed EIC. My transcript updated yesterday with a DD date of March 7. Since you filed a few days before me, check your transcript soon if you can access it!

FYI the IRS has a huge backlog this year. They're still catching up from pandemic staffing issues and the new tax law changes are slowing everything down. My tax guy told me to expect delays for everyone this season.
Jamal Harris
ā¢Can confirm. My sister works at IRS processing center and said they're drowning in returns right now and understaffed.

If it makes you feel any better, I'm in the exact same situation but with Current Bank instead of Varo. 3/19 DDD, still nothing as of this morning (3/20). Called Current and they said they haven't even received it from the IRS yet. So frustrating!
Has anyone else noticed that the deposit times have been getting worse every year? I used to get my refund within a week of filing back in like 2015. Now it takes 6+ weeks even when there are no issues. The whole system needs an overhaul.

ā¢IRS is understaffed and using computers from the stone age. They're literally still running some systems on code from the 1960s. No wonder everything is so slow.
CosmicCadet
ā¢yup i remember getting my refund in like 8 days back in 2016. now im lucky if i see it within a month š

Check your transcript! It will tell you the exact date the IRS sent your refund. If it shows code 846 with date 2/26, that's when the IRS is releasing the money, NOT necessarily when it hits your bank because SBTPG has to process it first. The IRS transcript is always more reliable than any other source.
Last year I couldn't make sense of my transcript at all. This year I used this tool taxr.ai and it explained everything. Made the whole process way less stressful.

Last year I couldn't get any info about my refund and wasted hours trying to reach the IRS. This year I used claimyr.com to get through to a human at the IRS and got all my questions answered in one call. It was so worth it to finally talk to someone who could tell me exactly what was going on.

Sometimes there's a mismatch between the name on your tax return and your bank account that can cause delays. For example, if your tax return has your full legal name but your bank account is under a nickname, or if you recently got married/divorced and changed your name. Might be worth checking with SOFI if there's a name verification issue.
I work at a bank (not SOFI). Digital banks often have different processing schedules for ACH transfers compared to traditional banks. While the Federal Reserve might process the transaction on the DDD, it can take 1-3 additional business days for the receiving bank to post it. Since your DDD was Tuesday, and today is Friday, I'd say wait until Monday before assuming there's a problem.
Chloe Taylor
ā¢Thanks for the insider perspective! That's actually really helpful to know.
No problem! One more thing - since it's tax season, banks get flooded with deposits and some have to process them in batches, which can cause additional delays. If Monday comes and goes with no deposit, definitely call SOFI directly.

the IRS is a disaster this year. I had an 846 date of 2/10 and didn't see my refund until 2/14. Then got a random letter saying they adjusted my amount by $2 š Make it make sense! Just be patient for a few more days.

try calling the tax advocates line at 877-777-4778. they might be able to tell you if there's an issue with your refund that's not showing up on transcript yet. sometimes there are holds that don't show up right away.

ā¢I was having the same problem getting through, but used claimyr.com and got a callback in 45 minutes. Tax advocate confirmed my refund was fine and explained exactly when to expect it. Saved me days of frustration.
