The exact same thing happened to me! After months of frustration I finally used Claimyr and got through to an actual competent IRS agent. Turns out my return was sitting in some obscure holding queue because of a mismatch with my address format of all things. The agent was able to release it right there during the call. It was the only way I could talk to a live agent who actually took the time to search thoroughly. claimyr.com saved me from waiting another 6 months.
That's wild that it was just an address format issue. The system is so fragile. I'm definitely going to try Claimyr if I keep hitting dead ends. Did they find your return right away or did it take some digging?
save ALL your records!!! acceptance confirmation, screenshots, everything. i went thru this in 2022 and had to prove to the IRS their own system was wrong. it was a nightmare but i did eventually get my refund + interest.
Is anyone else's transcript showing code 570 and 971? Mine has those and DDD disappeared š³
570 is a refund hold and 971 means they sent you a notice. You might be getting audited or they found a math error. Check your mail.
I had this last year. Used taxr.ai to understand what was happening and it turned out they were just verifying my W2 with my employer. Refund came about 2 weeks later.
After 6 hours of trying to reach the IRS about my missing refund (kept getting disconnected after 2 hour holds), I finally tried claimyr.com and got through! IRS agent told me my refund was flagged because I accidentally entered a wrong W2 amount, but she fixed it right on the call. Scheduled for direct deposit next week now! It was the only way I could talk to a live person at the IRS without wasting an entire day.
Pro tip: if ur refund is delayed past ur transcript date and u cant get thru to anyone at the irs, try using claimyr.com to get a callback. talking to an agent got my refund released same day when it was stuck in processing for weeks. Absolute lifesaver when I was desperate.
Does the IRS charge for this service? Or is this a third party thing?
Its a third party service that basically navigates the IRS phone system for you and gets you in line for a callback. Totally worth it when ur desperate and cant get thru on ur own after trying for days
If anyone is confused by all the transcript codes, I had NO idea what I was looking at until I tried taxr.ai - completely broke down what every code meant and why my refund was held up. Apparently I had an income verification issue I didn't even know about. The tool showed me exactly what was happening and when I'd likely get my DDD. Super helpful since the IRS website is so vague. https://taxr.ai
I've been trying to understand my transcript for weeks and was about to give up. Just checked out taxr and it literally explained everything in 2 minutes. Why doesn't the IRS make their systems this clear??
Right?? The IRS seems to intentionally make everything confusing. My favorite part was how it explained WHY I was getting each notice instead of just what the codes meant.
I called the IRS yesterday using claimyr.com (they get you through to an agent when the lines are busy) and they confirmed my DDD of 4/15 is correct. The agent said most banks will receive the funds 1-2 days before the DDD but when they release it depends on the bank's policy. Talking to an actual human at the IRS gave me peace of mind.
is it safe though? do they need your personal info?

While you're waiting, make sure your banking info is correct in the IRS system. I had my DDD but the deposit got rejected because my account number was off by one digit. Took an extra 3 weeks to get a paper check š Just double check everything is right in your tax return!

ā¢Ooof that sucks! I'm pretty sure mine is correct but I'll double check. Definitely don't want any more delays

The DDD is not a suggestion, it's a promise (for most people)! You'll get it on 3/12 give or take a day depending on chase and what time they process deposits. But don't expect it much earlier than that.
