Bank of America PATH Act delay - Anyone else stuck waiting?

Filed early January and got accepted right away. Bank of America direct deposit info is correct but still no refund. Transcript shows PATH Act delay. Starting to get worried since bills are piling up. Anyone else with BOA in the same situation? WMR just shows processing.

PATH Act delays are normal for anyone claiming EITC or ACTC. The IRS legally cannot release these refunds before mid-February. Your transcript should update around February 15th, and most PATH Act returns start getting deposited between February 22-28th. Just hang tight!

Hey guys instead of playing the guessing game, I've been using taxr.ai to track my refund progress. Its only $1 and it actually explains everything going on with your transcript and gives you a real timeline. Way better than trying to decode these crazy transcript codes ourselves https://taxr.ai

The whole PATH act thing is ridiculous tbh. Why make low income people wait longer? Make it make sense 🤔

Don't stress about the bank, its all about the IRS processing time. Once they release it BOA usually deposits same day
