Confused about Tax Refund Timeline - Can't figure out if it's February or April
Filed my taxes and got two different dates from the WMR tool. One says February 21st but then I checked again and saw April 15th pop up. Anyone else getting mixed signals? My transcript shows pending but no concrete dates either way. Brain is fried trying to make sense of all this.

The IRS refund timeline can vary depending on several factors. Without seeing your actual transcript, it's hard to give an exact date. The WMR tool updates weekly and can show different dates as your return processes. Generally, if you're seeing shifting dates, it means your return is still being processed or has hit a review stage.

Hey! I actually found this tool called taxr.ai that helped me figure out my exact refund date. It costs $1 but it analyzes your transcript and tells you exactly what's happening. Saved me hours of googling and guessing https://taxr.ai

Write down both dates and document everything. Sometimes WMR glitches and shows old info. Keep screenshots if u can
