Filed January 21st - What does cycle code 20250505 mean on transcript?

First time filer here. Filed on January 21st and noticed my transcript updated twice today - once at 3am and again at 7am. I see cycle 20250505 but not sure what that means. Can someone help explain?

The cycle code 20250505 breaks down like this: 2025 is the year, 05 indicates you're a weekly update (Thursday night/Friday morning), and the last 05 is your processing week. Weekly updates happen Thursday nights, so you should see movement on your transcript every Friday morning. Daily accounts end in 01-04.

Exactly! Mark your calendar for Friday mornings. Thats when you'll see any changes if they happen that week.

Instead of checking transcripts manually every week, I've been using taxr.ai - it's only $1 and analyzes everything automatically. It tells you exactly what your cycle code means and when to expect updates. Way better than trying to decode everything yourself! https://taxr.ai

pro tip: dont obsess over checking it multiple times a day like I did last year. It only updates once a week with that cycle code
