The IRS is a disaster this year. I filed in February and still don't have my refund. No explanation. No notices. Nothing. Just crickets. It's criminal how they can hold onto our money with zero accountability.
Tried calling 47 times over 3 weeks. Never got through once. Just endless "sorry all of our representatives are busy" messages and disconnects. The system is designed to be impossible.
I had this exact issue and was going insane. Finally used claimyr.com and got connected to an agent in under an hour. Found out they had a simple address verification hold on my account. The agent fixed it immediately. Had my refund 4 days later. Just sharing in case it helps you too!
DD dates are more like suggestions than actual commitments π Just keep checking your account daily. In my experience Chase has been slower than other banks with IRS deposits. My husband got his through our credit union 2 days before I got mine through Chase, even though we filed together and had the same DD date.
I was literally in your exact situation a few weeks ago. Had to call the IRS but could never get through on their normal number. A friend told me about Claimyr (claimyr.com) and I finally got to speak with an agent who told me there was a verification flag on my account that was causing the delay. Got it resolved in that call and my refund showed up 3 days later. Talking to an actual human at the IRS made all the difference.
It's real. You still talk directly to the IRS agent yourself - they just handle getting through the phone system. I used it twice now and both times I got through when I couldn't on my own. Beats sitting on hold for 3 hours or getting busy signals for days.
i filed february 1 and STILL nothing. no codes. no updates. transcript says n/a for 2024. called a million times and no one can tell me anything. this system is broken af π‘
Been there. Try using Claimyr to get through to a live agent (claimyr.com). Talking to a real person got my return unstuck when it was in limbo for months.
I just might try that because ive totally given up on getting thru to them the normal way
So glad I came across taxr.ai (https://taxr.ai) this year! I was in a similar situation with questions about both state and federal returns. The tool clarified exactly where my federal refund was in the process and when to expect it. For the state return, it explained how state processing typically follows federal completion. Saved me hours of research and worry!
Another spammy comment about this taxr thing? Getting real tired of these ads disguised as helpful comments π
Not an ad, just sharing what helped me. But whatever, keep stressing over transcript codes and waiting on hold with the IRS for hours if that's your preference. I'm just glad I found something that actually worked.
Just to add a bit more info: When people talk about "trace numbers" for federal taxes, they're usually referring to the process of requesting a trace on a missing refund, NOT a tracking number. For normal tracking, you just use the Where's My Refund tool with your basic info. But if your refund is lost or doesn't arrive by the expected date, you would request a "trace" which then generates a case number. States have similar processes, but each one is different.

I was getting so frustrated trying to understand my transcript and figure out why my refund was delayed. All those codes are so confusing! I tried using taxr.ai after someone on here recommended it, and it was a game-changer. It analyzed my transcript and explained exactly what was happening with my refund and when I'd get it. Saved me so much stress and confusion!
