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!

Getting your refund is like watching a package delivery - except the tracking system is from 1995 and the delivery driver might take a month-long detour! When I needed to figure out why my refund was delayed last year, calling the IRS was impossible until I found Claimyr (https://www.claimyr.com). It's like having a fast-pass at an amusement park - you skip the endless hold times and actually get to speak with an IRS agent who can see what's happening with your return. Saved me weeks of wondering and worrying!
I used Claimyr last month when my return was stuck in processing for 6 weeks. They connected me to an agent in about 25 minutes. The agent confirmed they needed to verify my W2 information but that everything looked fine otherwise. Got my DDD the following week. Worth every penny for the peace of mind alone.
I was super skeptical about this service too, but my cousin used it and swears by it. Apparently they use some kind of automated system that navigates the IRS phone tree and holds your place in line. Pretty clever when you think about it!
Just a clarification for those who might not understand the terminology - DDD means "Direct Deposit Date" in IRS-speak. It's the date they schedule your refund to be sent to your financial institution. However, the actual posting to your account depends on your bank's processing schedule. ACH transfers typically take 1-2 business days to process, so a DDD of 2/25 means you'll likely see funds in your account between 2/25-2/27, assuming no banking holidays interfere. The IRS batch processing system is frustratingly opaque, but at least once you have a DDD, you're in the final stage.

Last year I had this exact issue with my state return. After waiting 3 weeks for a check that never came, I called and learned they had an incorrect mailing address. The best approach is to call your state tax department ASAP and verify they have your correct address on file. If they confirm the check was actually mailed to the right address, they can typically initiate a trace after 21-30 days (varies by state). Some states will even cancel the original check and reissue immediately if you explain it's been more than 14 days.
Be very careful about this! On February 15th last year, my state tax website showed my refund check was mailed on January 28th. After not receiving it by February 20th, I called and they confirmed it had been mailed. On March 7th, I called again and requested a replacement check. They told me I needed to wait until April 1st (a full 60 days) before they could reissue. When I finally got the replacement in mid-April, I discovered someone had intercepted my original check, forged my signature, and cashed it. This triggered a fraud investigation that took 5 months to resolve. Document everything and call immediately to verify the status.

Had this exact problem. Missing W-2 was $1,200. Got 60-day letter. Called IRS after 30 days. They confirmed they found the missing W-2. Said to wait. Got adjusted refund 2 weeks later. No need to amend. Just be patient. System works.

I'm in the same boat right now! Forgot a $1,200 W-2 from a side gig. Got my 60-day letter three weeks ago. Called the IRS yesterday (only took 4 hours on hold... my personal best! š) and they confirmed they're just adjusting my return based on the missing W-2. Said I should get my adjusted refund in about 2-3 more weeks. The agent specifically told me NOT to amend since they're already fixing it. Apparently amending now would just throw another wrench in the system.

The blank transcript indicates your return hasn't entered the primary IRS processing queue yet. This is different from normal processing delays. I'd recommend bypassing the general line (800-829-1040) and instead call the Taxpayer Advocate Service at 877-777-4778. They can initiate a formal inquiry if your return has exceeded normal processing timeframes, which at 8+ weeks, yours definitely has. Request a "Taxpayer Assistance Order" if you're experiencing financial hardship due to the delay. This triggers an expedited review of your case.

I waited 3 months for my refund last year after filing in February. Called every week. Each time they told me "just keep waiting." Finally got a letter saying they needed to verify my identity. But by then, I'd missed the payment deadline on my car loan that I was counting on the refund for. The late fees and credit score hit were brutal. Don't just wait like I did - be proactive! And definitely don't make financial plans assuming the refund will arrive on time. The IRS works on their schedule, not yours.

The IRS is so inconsistent this year. My sister filed the same day as me, we have almost identical situations, and she got her refund two weeks ago while I'm still waiting. The system makes no sense sometimes.

This gives me hope! I'm at day 26 of "still processing" and starting to get nervous. Congrats on making it through the wait!
