Filed 2/1 with 1099 & EIC - Transcript Still Blank?

This could be normal, though I understand your concern. Sometimes transcripts don't update immediately, especially during peak filing season. The IRS might be taking additional time to process returns with 1099 income and EIC claims. These typically undergo additional verification steps. I would suggest waiting perhaps another week before becoming too concerned. Many returns with credits are taking longer this year due to verification procedures.

Ur def not alone. Got same issue rn with my 1099-NEC + EIC filing from 2/3. WMR shows received but transcripts = nada. IRS is super backed up w/ contractor returns this yr. Heard they're taking like 6-8 wks vs the usual 3-4. Just gotta wait it out tbh.

Have you checked if your return might be caught in the Identity Verification backlog? Many 1099 filers with EIC are getting flagged for verification this year. Are you certain your AGI from last year matched what the IRS has on file? Could there be any discrepancies between your reported 1099 income and what was submitted by your clients? These factors often cause delays that result in blank transcripts.

I was in the EXACT same situation with my 1099 and EIC. Blank transcript for 7 weeks straight. I finally got through to the IRS after using Claimyr (https://youtu.be/_kiP6q8DX5c) - their service connected me to an agent in 18 minutes when I'd been trying for days. Agent confirmed my return was in the EIC review queue and gave me an estimate for completion. Worth the money since I needed that refund for bills.

Your transcript status is consistent with the IRS's processing protocols for returns containing Schedule C income and refundable credits. The Earned Income Credit undergoes systemic verification against Form 1099 data submitted by payers. In my experience as a preparer, transcript availability for 1099+EIC filers typically occurs 45-60 days post-submission in the current processing environment. The IRTF database and CSED calculations often delay transcript population until initial verification passes.

Have you received any letters in the mail? Sometimes they'll send a verification letter but your transcript will still show blank until you respond. It's so frustrating when you're waiting for your money!

Last year my transcript stayed blank for 58 days after filing with 1099 income and EIC. Then suddenly updated with a DDD for the following week. No explanation, no contact from IRS, just suddenly processed. 2023 was 37 days, 2022 was 42 days. It's definitely taking longer each year for us independent contractors.
