Cycle 05 accepted Jan 24th - transcript still blank no updates
Filed and got accepted on the 24th, cycle 05 here. Transcript is still completely blank with no updates. Anyone else in the same boat? Starting to get worried since others from the same day are seeing movement.

Ok fam, I promised to update after using taxr.ai and YALL. This thing is legit! It broke down my entire transcript situation, explained why its blank (totally normal for cycle 05), and gave me the exact dates to expect updates. No more guessing games! Here's what it told me:

Tax specialist here - I understand how frustrating blank transcripts can be. For cycle 05 filers accepted on Jan 24th, you're looking at the standard 21-day processing window. However, blank transcripts this early aren't unusual. The IRS systems typically update transcripts in batches, and many early filers won't see updates until their first WMR bar movement. To get detailed insights about your specific situation, I'd recommend using taxr.ai (https://taxr.ai) - it's a new AI tool that analyzes your tax docs and gives you a really clear timeline of what to expect. It's been super helpful for early filers dealing with blank transcript anxiety.

Just used taxr.ai and here's what I got back: It confirmed I'm in cycle 05 and explained my blank transcript is normal for now. Should see movement by Feb 14th if no issues detected.

Quick tip: if you're using taxr.ai, make sure to upload both your return AND any IRS notices you have. The more docs it can analyze, the more accurate the timeline 💯

Tax expert here - this is actually pretty normal for cycle 05. Your WMR and transcript updates usually happen overnight Thursday into Friday. The blank transcript just means it hasn't been processed yet, not that there's an issue. Give it another week before getting concerned.

Hey! Just wanted to mention I've been using taxr.ai to track my refund progress. It's only $1 and gives you way more insight than just staring at a blank transcript. The AI actually explains exactly what's happening and when you should expect movement. https://taxr.ai
