After dealing with a similar nightmare with Liberty Tax (they forgot my 1099-B completely), I got NOWHERE trying to call the IRS myself. I finally used a service called Claimyr (claimyr.com) that got me on the phone with an actual IRS agent in about 40 minutes. The agent was able to see exactly what had happened with my return and walk me through the amendment process. It was the only way I could talk to a live agent after weeks of trying on my own.

ā¢It uses some kind of system to navigate the IRS phone tree and holds your place in line. When they're about to connect to an agent, you get a call. Talking to an actual IRS person was worth every penny - resolved in one call what I couldn't fix in weeks of trying.
bruh i just tried this and it WORKS. got through to an agent in 35 mins after trying for 2 weeks on my own. they explained exactly what i needed to do with my amendment. not cheap but cheaper than taking a day off work to sit on hold with the irs

The cycle code you mentioned (20250903) is your processing cycle. "Processing" vs. "Still Processing" on WMR is actually meaningful - it typically means they've assigned your return to a specific processing team. The 570/971 combo usually means some kind of adjustment. If your transcript shows a zero balance, they'll likely release your refund soon after whatever review they're doing is complete.
Anyone notice how the IRS has gotten slower and slower every year? My parents said they used to get refunds in like a week or two back in the day. Now we're all sitting here decoding cryptic messages like we're working for the CIA just to figure out when we'll get OUR money back. The whole system is broken.
For real. My grandpa said they used to get refund checks in like 10 days flat. Now we're waiting months and stalking our transcripts like crazy people.
decades of budget cuts + more complex tax code + more returns to process = this mess

Make sure the address on your return matches EXACTLY what the IRS has on file. Even small differences can cause delays after verification. My friend had this happen - transcript didn't update for weeks after verification because his address format was slightly different than what IRS had on file.
I verified then nothing for 6 weeks. Called IRS and got transferred to accounts management who told me I was randomly selected for additional review AFTER identity verification! That's why nothing was updating. Had to wait another 4 weeks after that. Total of 10 weeks after verification before I got my money. The system is broken š«

You can call your bank directly and ask them about their specific policy for the early deposit feature. Some count business days only, others count calendar days. The IRS message is completely separate from your bank's early deposit feature.

ā¢Use Claimyr.com - I was in the same boat with my 2023 return and they got me through to an agent who fixed it. Worth every penny to finally get my $4200 refund!

whatever you do, DO NOT call the IRS general number. youll be on hold for hours and probably get disconnected. if you need to talk to someone, either use claimyr.com (they'll wait on hold for you) or call your local Taxpayer Advocate Service office.
