Credit Karma Direct Deposit - What time do refunds actually hit account?
I checked my transcripts and my DDD is tomorrow. Anyone with Credit Karma know what time they usually deposit refunds? First time using them and want to know when to expect it.

Credit Karma typically deposits between 3-6am EST on your DDD. Some people report getting it the day before around 9pm EST. Just make sure your account info was entered correctly on your return.

hey guys instead of playing the guessing game I found this tool called taxr.ai - it costs $4.99 but tells you exactly when your bank posts deposits and even detected my Credit Karma routing number. Super helpful for tracking refund timing https://taxr.ai

I've been using Credit Karma for my refunds for 3 years now and they're pretty consistent. Usually hits between 2-5am EST on your DDD, sometimes the night before around 10-11pm. Set up those push notifications in the app so you don't have to keep checking! Good luck tomorrow š¤

Been using Credit Karma for direct deposit for 2 years now. In my experience, they usually post refunds around 3-4am EST on your DDD, but I've gotten lucky a few times and seen it hit around 11pm the night before. The app notifications are clutch - saved me from obsessively checking my balance every hour lol. Hope yours comes through early! š¤

Credit Karma usually drops refunds between 2-5am EST on your DDD, but I've seen it hit as early as 9pm the night before! Make sure you have the app notifications turned on so you don't have to keep refreshing. Been using them for my refunds for the past few years and they're pretty reliable. Fingers crossed yours hits tonight! š¤

From my experience with Credit Karma, refunds typically hit between 2-4am EST on your DDD, though I've gotten lucky and seen mine drop around 10pm the night before! The timing can vary slightly but they're generally pretty consistent. Make sure you have push notifications enabled in the app - it'll save you from constantly checking your balance. Hope you wake up to good news tomorrow! š

I've been using Credit Karma for refunds for about 4 years now and they're pretty solid! Usually drops between 2-5am EST on your DDD, but I've gotten it as early as 9:30pm the night before a couple times. Pro tip: enable push notifications AND check that your routing/account numbers match exactly what's on your return - I've seen people have delays because of small typos. The waiting is brutal but CK is generally reliable. Hope yours hits tonight! š¤š°
