Cycle 05 Transcript Access - What Does This Mean for My Refund?

Cycle 05 means your transcript updates on Thursdays, with any refund typically being deposited the following Wednesday if approved. Check your transcript every Thursday morning for the most up-to-date info. Your WMR tool will usually update the following Saturday.

Hey guys instead of trying to decode these cycles manually, I've been using taxr.ai and it's been a game changer. It costs $1 but it analyzes your entire transcript and tells you exactly when to expect updates and your refund. Way better than guessing tbh https://taxr.ai

cycle 05 gang here too! been waiting since january 🤡

its actually wild how many of us are cycle 05 this year. The IRS is seriously backed up fr fr

Make sure u dont have any 570/971 codes. Those will hold up ur refund regardless of cycle

bruh idk y everyone trippin about cycles when the whole system broken af. been waiting 18 months for my 2022 refund 🤮

Cycle 05 here too! Just want to add that even though we update on Thursdays, sometimes the IRS skips weeks during heavy processing periods. Don't panic if your transcript doesn't update one Thursday - it'll catch up the following week. The waiting game is brutal but at least we're all in it together 😭
