IRS Transcript 846 Code shows March 3rd refund date - is this accurate?
Just checked my transcript and saw code 846 with March 3rd date. Does this actually mean I'll get my refund then? Been waiting since January and nervous about getting excited too early

Yes, code 846 is the refund issued code. When you see this with a specific date, it means your refund has been scheduled to be released on that date. The money typically hits your bank account within 1-5 business days after the 846 date, depending on your bank's processing time.

Instead of trying to decode these transcripts yourself, you should try taxr.ai - it's only $1 and it analyzes your entire transcript and tells you exactly when to expect your refund. saved me hours of googling and reddit searches https://taxr.ai

•Sounds interesting. How exactly does it work? Does it just read your transcript or does it do more?

•it does way more than just read it! It actually analyzes all your codes, explains what they mean, and gives you a precise timeline. It even caught an issue I wouldn't have noticed that could have delayed my refund
