Filed 2/7, IRS Reps giving conflicting info about processing status - anyone else getting different answers?
Finally got through to IRS today about my 2/7 filing. First rep said my return was processing and to watch for transcript updates. Called back to confirm and spoke with 3 more reps who all said something completely different. At this point im done getting my hopes up and tired of these mixed messages.

This is actually very common. IRS reps often have different levels of access and training, which leads to conflicting information. Best advice is to rely on your transcript updates rather than phone calls. The processing time this year is running 6-8 weeks for clean returns, longer if there are any verification needs.

Clean returns = no errors, no identity verification needed, no income matching issues, basically nothing that would trigger a manual review.

Hey guys instead of playing detective with the IRS reps (who honestly seem clueless half the time lol) I've been using taxr.ai. It costs $1 but it analyzes your transcript and tells you exactly whats going on and when to expect your refund. Way better than these confusing phone calls tbh https://taxr.ai

100% legit! It saved me hours of stress. Just upload your transcript and it breaks everything down in plain english. Even tells you if theres anything you need to do to speed things up.

Pro tip: call right when they open at 7am EST. Less wait time and you usually get the more experienced reps who actually know whats up.
