My tax preparer told me my refund is finally out of the errors department and being mailed to me. I did an amended return to add some W2s that were missing. When I check my transcripts and WMR nothing has updated yet. Is it possible that tax preparers can see updates that aren't visible to us?

My tax preparer messed up and someone elses refund got deposited into my bank account today. I know its not my money and want to do the right thing. How do I send this back to the IRS? Do I contact my bank or the IRS first? Really nervous about this situation and dont want to get in trouble.

I filed my 2024 taxes through TurboTax and got accepted with a $9,986 refund. I'm concerned because there seems to be a disconnect between what TurboTax is showing me and what I can see on the IRS website/transcript. According to my TurboTax account, my status shows: 2024 tax return $9,986 refund E-filed Accepted The timeline clearly indicates: Refund delivery 01/23 01/24 Under the FEDERAL section, it specifically states: Return accepted $9,986 01/24 see fees deducted I signed up to receive my federal refund 5 days early through TurboTax's service. So according to this timeline, I should have received my refund between 01/23 and 01/24. What's concerning me is that when I check the IRS website and look at my transcript, there's absolutely nothing there. The TurboTax app/website clearly shows "Return accepted $9,986" under the FEDERAL section with the 01/24 date, but there's no trace of this on the IRS side. I'm getting nervous since it's such a large refund ($9,986) and I'm wondering if something is wrong. The TurboTax interface shows everything is fine - accepted status with specific delivery dates - while the IRS transcript shows nothing at all. I understand the fees will be deducted from the $9,986 as noted in the TurboTax interface, but I'm more concerned about why my refund isn't showing up on the IRS side yet. Is anyone else experiencing this same issue with TurboTax showing an accepted return but nothing appearing in IRS records? Should I be concerned?

Finally got my refund released! Had a freeze since March 7th (code 810) but just got my 846 code today on 10/21/2024. Been a looong journey but worth the wait. Here's my full transcript: EMPLOYMENT TAX: 2,598.00 RETURN DUE DATE OR RETURN RECEIVED DATE (WHICHEVER IS LATER) Apr. 15, 2024 PROCESSING DATE Apr. 15, 2024 TRANSACTIONS CODE EXPLANATION OF TRANSACTION CYCLE DATE AMOUNT 150 Tax return filed 20241305 04-15-2024 $4,803.00 810 Refund freeze 03-07-2024 $0.00 766 Credit to your account 04-15-2024 -$4,123.00 766 Credit to your account 04-15-2024 -$5,891.00 766 Credit to your account 04-16-2024 -$9,650.00 768 Earned income credit 04-16-2024 -$8,058.00 971 Amended tax return or claim 05-03-2024 $0.00 forwarded for processing 977 Amended return filed 05-03-2024 $0.00 767 Reduced or removed credit to your 04-16-2024 $1,035.00 account 764 Earned income credit 04-16-2024 -$472.00 291 Reduced or removed prior tax 08-07-2024 -$2,205.00 assessed 971 Notice issued 08-07-2024 $0.00 811 Removed refund freeze 10-01-2024 $0.00 846 Refund issued 10-21-2024 $22,376.64 776 Interest credited to your account 10-30-2024 -$915.64 This Product Contains Sensitive Taxpayer Data Started with a $4,803 tax return filed, then got several credits including $4,123, $5,891, and $9,650. Also received an earned income credit of $8,058! Had some adjustments like a $1,035 reduction and a removed credit, but they also gave me $472 in additional EIC and removed $2,205 in prior tax assessed. Filed an amended return on 5/3/2024 that had to be forwarded for processing (code 971) and officially recorded as filed (code 977). Finally got the freeze removed (code 811) on 10/1/2024, and today they issued my refund for $22,376.64 plus $915.64 in interest! Check your transcripts people - the codes tell the whole story! My original return was due 4/15/2024 and it's been a roller coaster since then, but seeing that 846 code made it all worth it. The processing date matches my return date exactly, which I guess is a good thing. The employment tax amount of $2,598 seems right based on my W-2. Just wanted to share my timeline and success - don't give up if you're dealing with a freeze code!

I filed my 2024 taxes already and when I check my transcript online it still shows 0 dollars everywhere. Is this normal? Getting worried since I'm expecting a refund and don't know if something went wrong with my filing.
