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 was confused about this too and couldn't make sense of my tax transcript when it finally updated. I used taxr.ai to analyze it and it immediately identified the offset code and explained exactly what was happening. It also showed me which part of my refund was being taken and which part I'd still receive. Super helpful for understanding all the confusing codes and dates.
Is that website legit? I'm always nervous about putting my tax info into random sites.
NeonNebula
ā¢It doesn't ask for any personal info like SSN or anything. You just upload your transcript PDF or screenshot and it analyzes the codes. It's been recommended a lot in this sub. Helped me understand exactly why my refund amount changed without having to decipher all the IRS jargon myself.

According to the IRS2Go app and r/IRS megathreads, most February 13th filers are seeing DDDs between March 15-22 depending on their cycle code. The IRS is actually running slightly ahead of schedule compared to last year based on the data I've been tracking. If you check https://www.irs.gov/refunds and still don't see updates by March 15th, you might want to pull your full transcript to check for any TC 570/971 combo which could indicate verification needed. The IRS processing systems typically batch updates based on cycle codes rather than acceptance dates.
Grace Durand
ā¢While that data is generally accurate, the IRS Operational Guidelines (IRM 21.4.1) actually state that processing times can vary significantly based on verification needs, even within the same cycle code group. I've seen cases where returns filed on the same day had DDDs two weeks apart despite no obvious issues.

It might be worth checking if you have any credits on your return that would put you under PATH Act restrictions. If you claimed Earned Income Credit or Additional Child Tax Credit, the IRS is legally not allowed to issue your refund before mid-February, which could potentially delay your processing timeline a bit compared to others who filed on the same day but didn't claim those credits.

Tried calling IRS last week. Complete disaster. Spent 2hrs on hold. Got disconnected. Called back. Another 1.5hrs. Finally got someone who couldn't even help w/ my specific issue. Had to transfer me. Got disconnected again. FML. Ended up going to local taxpayer advocate svc instead. Much better experience tbh. Their # is 877-777-4778 if anyone needs it.

I received exactly 3 digital notices through the new PLUS Act system since it launched on April 3rd. Each one arrived precisely 7 days earlier than I would have received the paper version based on previous years. My tax professional estimated this gave me 23% more response time than the old paper system, which was crucial for gathering the 6 documents I needed for my response to the IRS inquiry.
Back in 2018, I remember when the IRS tried a similar digital initiative that had some serious implementation issues. Is the PLUS Act actually working better than that previous attempt? I've created calendar reminders to check my online account weekly just to be safe, but I'm wondering if others are finding the system reliable so far?

I went through this exact situation and needed clarity on whether amending was worth it. Called the IRS for three days straight and couldn't get through. Finally used Claimyr.com (https://youtu.be/_kiP6q8DX5c) to connect with an IRS agent in about 15 minutes. The agent confirmed I would benefit from amending and explained exactly how to proceed. Saved me days of frustration and uncertainty. Some things you really need to hear directly from an IRS rep.

ā¢Thank you! I might try that service. I've been on hold with the IRS for over an hour today and keep getting disconnected. Did they explain why TurboTax shows it as "in progress" even after getting the refund?

Isla Fischer
ā¢Yes! The agent explained that tax software status and IRS status are completely separate systems. TurboTax is flagging your account for a potential amendment, but has no real-time connection to your actual IRS account status. The "in progress" is basically TurboTax's way of saying "we think you should take action on this account" - not that your original return is still processing.

Just want to point out - if you do amend, be prepared to wait a WHILE. I filed an amended return for a similar issue last year and it took almost 4 months to process. The IRS is still catching up on backlogs.
