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!

IRS Website Error: "Refund Status Unavailable" Message at 10:24 After Working Fine Earlier Today

I was checking my refund status earlier today at sa.www4.irs.gov and everything was working fine, now suddenly at around 10:24 it's showing "Refund status unavailable" with the exact message "Refund status unavailable. Refund information is unavailable at this time. Please try again later." Anyone else having this issue? The site was working perfectly about 2 hours ago and now I can't see any of my information. When I try to check through the official IRS website and go to "Account Home / Refund status" section as shown in the navigation path, it just shows this error message and only gives me the option to "Return to account home." I can see the IRS logo at the top of the page and it clearly says "An official website of the United States Government" with "Here's how you know" text next to it. The Tools section isn't helping either. I've attached a screenshot showing exactly what I'm seeing - it's from my phone which shows LTE connection and 25% battery at 10:24. The URL in my browser still shows sa.www4.irs.gov but I just keep getting this "Refund status unavailable" page with no actual information about my refund. Really frustrating since I was able to view everything earlier today. Has the IRS website gone down for maintenance or is anyone else experiencing this issue on the official United States Government IRS site?

Can I Submit NYS Childcare Expense Verification Without Provider's SSN? (Due March 10, 2025)

I just got a letter from NYS Tax Department about my 2024 New York State income tax return saying they need to verify information about my childcare expenses by March 10, 2025. The letter states: "We need more information by March 10, 2025 about your 2024 New York State income tax return. We need to verify information reported on your return." They're asking for copies of the following information regarding my claimed child and dependent care expenses: - An itemized statement from a licensed daycare provider listing my daycare expenses, payments, and who made each payment - Canceled checks, money order stubs, receipts, or statements showing amounts of direct payments I made for daycare expenses - If I received public assistance for childcare, provide copies of statements detailing the deposits of any money I received. Include a copy of the placement notice from the Department of Social Services showing the placement date and parent fee. - If the child or dependent is over age 13, provide a statement from their doctor stating they were unable to care for themselves. My problem is my childcare provider gets disability and absolutely refuses to give her SSN because she's worried it'll affect her benefits. I have all the payment receipts they're asking for that show every payment I made, but no SSN from her. The letter outlines several ways to submit the information: 1. Online - "If you already have an Online Services account with the New York State Tax Department use your account to respond to this notice. If you do not have an online account go to www.tax.ny.gov and select Create Account" 2. Fax: 518-435-8524 3. U.S. Mail: NYS Tax Department Audit Division-Income/Franchise Desk, P.O. Box 15312, Albany, NY 12212-5312 4. Private delivery service: NYS Tax Department RPC-PIT 90 Cohoes Avenue, Green Island, NY 12183 Will this hold up both my federal and state refunds? I can provide literally everything they're asking for in terms of payment proof, but I'm stuck on the SSN issue. Has anyone dealt with something similar with a provider who won't provide their tax info? This is really stressing me out because that March 10th deadline is coming up fast, and I want to make sure I'm sending them everything correctly. Should I include a letter explaining the SSN situation along with all the payment documentation I have?

Nora Bennett

Quick tip: make sure u upload everything before March 10th! NYS is super strict with deadlines rn

IRS Transcript Shows 'Additional Info Needed' But No Letter Sent - What Does This Mean?

My transcript is showing they need more information from me but theres no letter or notice showing up anywhere. The weird part is it also says I'm not being audited. Been checking my mail everyday for weeks but nothing from the IRS has shown up. Anyone know what this means or what I should do?

Finnegan Gunn

Your best bet is pulling your FULL transcript and looking for any codes like 570 or 971. Those usually indicate what type of info they need. But honestly its like trying to read hieroglyphics unless you know what your looking at lol

DETAILED EXPLANATION: This is actually a super common issue in 2025. Here's what's typically happening: - The IRS automated system flags accounts for various reasons (income verification, identity verification, etc) - Sometimes the letter generation gets delayed in their system - You might have a 'ghost' letter in their system that hasn't actually been sent Your options: 1. Call IRS (be prepared for long wait) 2. Use taxr.ai to analyze your transcript (honestly the easiest solution - it'll tell you exactly what's happening) 3. Wait for the letter (risky, could delay refund further) Personally, I'd recommend the taxr.ai route first - it's cheap and fast. If that doesn't give you what you need, then try calling.

ID.me Lockout: Can't Access Transcript (Lost Phone + Authentication Issues)

Been trying to check my transcript but completely locked out of id.me. Lost my old phone with the authentication app and forgot my password. Starting to get really frustrated with this whole process. Anyone know how to get back in?

Yara Campbell

Pro tip: while ur waiting to get back in, you can also request your transcript by mail. Takes like 5-10 days but at least its a backup plan

Filed 1/29, WMR delayed, transcript N/A - Do I need to verify by phone after online verification?

Filed and got accepted January 29th but Where's My Refund is showing delayed beyond normal timeframe. My transcript is still showing N/A. Already did the ID verify online but wondering if I need to call and verify too? Anyone know the best time to call and typical hold times?

Cedric Chung

Check your tax transcript every Tuesday morning. Thats when they do the weekly updates. If its still N/A after online verification for more than 2 weeks, then maybe think about calling.
