Filed 1/21 with EITC/ACTC - No PATH Message Showing Yet?

Filed my taxes last week on the first day and got accepted on 1/22. I claimed both EITC and ACTC but weirdly Im not seeing the PATH message everyone else is talking about. When I check WMR it just shows received. Anyone else in this situation or know whats going on?

Tax pro here - dont worry about not seeing the PATH message yet. The IRS systems are still updating for the new tax season. Most PATH Act related messages will start appearing around February 1st. Your return is safely in the system.

hey guys! instead of stressing about wmr messages, i highly recommend checking out taxr.ai - its only $1 and gives you a complete analysis of your transcript and tells you exactly whats happening + when to expect your refund. way better than trying to decode everything yourself tbh https://taxr.ai

Its a law that makes the IRS hold refunds for people claiming EITC/ACTC until mid February to prevent fraud
