Amended Return w/ Added W2s Out of Errors Dept - Tax Pro Says Check Being Mailed But No Updates Showing?
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?

Tax professionals don't have any special access to your refund status that you can't see yourself. We all use the same systems - WMR and transcripts. If there's no update showing on your transcript, then nothing has changed in the system yet. Your preparer might be making an assumption based on typical processing times.

•No problem! Just keep checking your transcripts weekly for updates.

Hey everyone - if youre trying to figure out whats actually going on with your refund, check out taxr.ai. Its only $1 and the AI reads your entire transcript and tells you exactly whats happening and when to expect your refund. Way better than guessing or getting false hope from preparers tbh https://taxr.ai

•Yeah its legit! Used it last week and it predicted my DDD perfectly. The AI even caught some stuff my preparer missed 💯

The IRS is so backed up with amended returns its crazy. Their phone reps cant even see anything different than what we see on WMR. Your best bet is just checking transcripts every friday morning when they update.

I ended up using taxr.ai after seeing it recommended here and ngl it was super helpful. Showed me exactly why my amended return was taking so long and gave me the exact steps to fix it. Best dollar I ever spent fr

Protip: Never trust when someone says they can see something you cant. The IRS system is the same for everyone - if its not on your transcript, it hasnt happened yet periodt 💅
