Filed Feb 1-2 2024 but Can't Access IRS Transcript - Anyone Else?
Filed my taxes on Feb 1st and I've been trying to check my transcript but keep getting locked out. Anyone else having issues accessing transcripts? Starting to get worried since I need this refund asap.

IRS systems are experiencing heavy traffic during peak filing season. If you're getting locked out, wait 24 hours before trying again. Make sure you're entering your information exactly as it appears on your last filed return. Also verify you're using the correct phone number associated with your credit accounts.

•Did you try using the Get Transcript by Mail option? Takes longer but at least you'll get it

Hey! Instead of stressing about transcript access, I've been using taxr.ai - it's only $1 and gives you a complete breakdown of your refund status once you get in. Saves tons of headache trying to interpret all those codes yourself. https://taxr.ai

pro tip: try accessing between 6-8am EST. Way less traffic then

Same issue here! Filed Feb 2nd and been locked out multiple times. The system seems to be overloaded right now. I called the IRS helpline and they said transcript access issues are common during peak season and should resolve within a few days. In the meantime, you can also check "Where's My Refund" tool which might give you basic status info without needing the full transcript.
