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!

If you used TurboTax or another tax program, double check what you entered for the advance CTC payments. A lot of people enter $0 thinking they're answering "did you get advances" with "no" but the system interprets that as "yes I got advances totaling $0" which causes the exact problem you're describing.

We used FreeTaxUSA and I'm pretty sure I entered the correct amounts but now I'm second-guessing myself. Is there any way to see what I actually submitted on the return?

You should be able to login to your FreeTaxUSA account and view/download a PDF of your submitted return. Check Schedule 8812 specifically.

I'm a tax preparer and I've seen this issue multiple times this year. The IRS's record-keeping for the advance CTC payments has been a DISASTER. Most of the time it's because they recorded sending payments that never actually made it to the taxpayer. Request your 2023 Account Transcript ASAP and look for codes 766 with "credit reference number 1401" - these are the advance CTC payments they think they sent you.

Thank you! This is exactly what I needed to know. Will check for those specific codes tonight.

In addition to what they said, you should use taxr.ai - it will automatically find and explain all these codes for you and tell you exactly what steps to take. Saved me so much time trying to figure out all the IRS jargon.

File injured spouse next time...problem solved šŸ¤·ā€ā™‚ļø

Not always that simple. Injured spouse can actually complicate things and delay processing by 11-14 weeks. Sometimes faster to just take the offset depending on your financial situation.

When I needed to talk to a human at the IRS about my offset, I used Claimyr (claimyr.com) and got through in about 45 minutes. The IRS rep confirmed exactly what was happening with my refund and gave me the exact date my remaining portion would be deposited. Worth every penny after spending DAYS trying to get through the normal phone line. They had me talking to an actual IRS agent who could see my account and help resolve everything.

Anybody else think its nuts that we can land a rover on Mars but the IRS cant tell us when our refund will arrive? 🤣 good luck OP, you're gonna need it

The IRS is still using computer systems from the 1960s. I wish I was joking. My cousin works there and says some of their code is older than most of their employees šŸ’€

My timeline this year after verification: Day 0: Verified ID online and by phone Day 3: WMR changed to "received and processing" Day 14: No change Day 15: WMR changed to approved with DDD Day 19: Money in my account Hope this helps!

This is super helpful - at least now I can have realistic expectations. Thank you!

The IRS is stuck in 1982 I swear. They're sending physical letters for verification when they could just text or email. It's ridiculous! I feel your pain.

has anyone tried just showing up at the IRS office with all your documents? like license, ssn card, birth certificate, etc and DEMAND they verify you? i'm wondering if the squeaky wheel approach works

Let's just say I tried the "I'm not leaving until someone helps me" approach last year and ended up having a nice chat with a federal security officer. 0/10 would not recommend.

Filed February 3rd, Still Showing "Action Required" on WMR After In-Person Identity Verification - Transcript Remains Empty After a Month

I filed my taxes on Feb 3rd 2024 and got accepted same day. On March 5th I had to go in person for identity verification at my local IRS office. It's been almost a month since verification and my transcript is still completely blank, no updates at all. When I check Where's My Refund on the IRS website (sa.www4.irs.gov), it shows an "Action Required" message that says: "Please read the following information related to your tax situation. You may need to provide additional information to receive your full refund. We received your tax return and are reviewing it. If we need additional information, we'll mail a notice with further instructions. If you've already received a notice, please follow the instructions. If we determine no additional information is needed, we'll continue to process your refund." Under "Your personal tax information" it shows: Tax Year: 2024 Filing Status: Head of household I verified my identity in person nearly a month ago, but I'm still not seeing any updates on my transcript. It's completely blank with no information at all. I don't know if I'm supposed to receive something in the mail or if I should be more proactive. Has anyone dealt with this "Action Required" status that just says they're reviewing your return? I'm not sure if I should keep waiting or if there's something else I need to do at this point. I haven't received any notices in the mail requesting additional information yet.

Did you have any credits like EITC or Additional Child Tax Credit? Those automatically get extra scrutiny and delay processing.

Yes I claimed EITC. But I do every year and never had problems before

That explains it. They're being extra strict with EITC this year because of all the fraud last year. Expect a longer wait than normal unfortunately.
