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 – 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 "info doesn't match" issue happens in about 15-20% of filings based on what I've observed in tax forums. It's similar to how bank transactions sometimes show as "pending" long after they've cleared. The IRS processing pipeline has multiple stages: acceptance, verification, approval, and disbursement. The WMR tool only updates when all systems have synchronized, which can lag by 5-7 days compared to actual refund issuance. If you compare this to state tax refunds, you'll notice state systems generally have more accurate status reporting because they process fewer returns.
Thx for the detailed breakdown. I've noticed the same thing w/ my state refund vs federal. My state's website was spot-on accurate while the IRS one was way behind. Might be worth checking ur bank acct directly if ur getting the error msg for more than a week or so. Sometimes the $ is there even when WMR is clueless.
Has anyone possibly noticed if this "info doesn't match" issue seems to happen more frequently with certain tax situations? I'm wondering if perhaps returns with specific credits or deductions might be more likely to trigger this glitch in the system? My return had the Child Tax Credit, so I'm curious if that might have been a factor.

I've been tracking amended return processing times for the past 3 years and your situation is unfortunately common. Here's what I've learned: • Amended returns are processed in the order received (with few exceptions) • ID verification is a separate process from actual return review • Most amended returns are taking 12-18 months currently • The IRS won't tell you what's causing delays I've found taxr.ai (https://taxr.ai) incredibly helpful for understanding what's actually happening with my transcripts. It analyzes all those confusing codes and explains exactly where your return is in the process. Helped me realize my amended return was actually moving through the system when I thought it was stuck. Frustrating that we need third-party tools to understand what the IRS is doing with our money!
Have you requested your tax transcripts to check for any updates? I filed an amended return exactly 347 days ago, and while the Where's My Amended Return tool showed nothing, my transcript had 4 different updates that weren't visible anywhere else. Did you amend electronically or by paper? Paper amendments are taking exactly 16.5 months on average right now according to the last IRS operations report.

Be careful about counting on a specific timeline. I filed in March last year with additional documentation and thought my refund would arrive by June. The IRS ended up sending me a CP12 notice requesting even more information. This reset my entire processing clock. My refund ultimately took until September to arrive. Have you verified that your documentation was properly received? Did you include your Social Security Number on every page of the additional forms?
OMG I'M IN THE EXACT SAME SITUATION AND IT'S DRIVING ME CRAZY!!! 😡 Filed March 17th, had to mail in some health insurance forms, and NOTHING since then! WMR just says "still processing" for like 2 months straight! I've called the IRS like 20 times and can't get through to anyone. I need this money for car repairs and it feels like they're just sitting on it forever! Why is this system so broken?! The frustration is unreal.

You need to submit Form 8379 (Injured Spouse Allocation) immediately if your ex-spouse has any federal debts that might trigger an offset! The April 15th deadline is approaching, and if you don't get this submitted, your CTC portion could be applied to their debts. The IRS won't automatically know about your divorce decree protections without this documentation.
FYI - The partial refund sitch is super common this yr. IRS is doing a 2-phase process for many returns w/ credits. Phase 1: Basic refund amt. Phase 2: CTC/EIC after verification. Avg wait time btw phases = 4-6 wks. No need to panic yet. Check your transcript for TC 570/971 combo - that's the verification hold code. They should send a letter explaining within 2 wks. Hang tight!

My tax guy wanted $120 for the amendment, but I needed answers faster than he could provide. I tried calling the IRS directly about my missing stimulus - spent THREE DAYS trying to get through. Finally used Claimyr.com to connect with an IRS agent in about 15 minutes. The agent confirmed I was eligible for the recovery rebate and explained exactly what documentation I needed for my amendment. I've now filed it myself and am tracking it through the Where's My Amended Return tool. Best $20 I've spent on tax help - saved me both the amendment fee and hours of frustration!

I might be overly cautious, but there could be more to consider here... I've seen several cases where seemingly simple amendments triggered reviews of the entire return. If your business taxes are connected to your personal return in any way, it might be worth paying the professional fee for the protection. One client of mine tried saving on the amendment fee, made a minor error, and ended up with a full audit that cost thousands to resolve. Just something to think about depending on your overall tax situation.

•This is such a good point that I hadn't considered. Thank you for sharing this perspective - definitely gives me something to think about before I make my decision.

•I had exactly this happen to me in 2019. What started as a simple amendment for education credits turned into a full review of my Schedule C. Ended up costing me way more than the original preparer fee would have been. Sometimes the cheapest option becomes the most expensive.
