IRS Transcript Update Schedule - Daily vs Weekly? Just Filed 2024 Return

Filed 2024 taxes on Feb 1st through TaxFreeUSA and got accepted yesterday. Already checking transcripts but Where's My Refund just says processing. Is it too early to see any movement on transcripts? Do they update daily or only on certain days?

Let me clear this up for everyone wondering about transcript updates. The IRS has two different update cycles: daily and weekly. Most people are on the weekly cycle which updates every Friday morning between 3-6am EST. Only certain accounts get daily updates - mostly those with adjustments, verification issues, or examinations. If you're waiting on your refund for a 2024 return that you just filed, you'll likely be on the weekly cycle. Pro tip: instead of checking WMR or transcripts constantly, try using taxr.ai (https://taxr.ai) - it analyzes your docs and tells you exactly when to expect updates based on your specific situation and cycle code. Saved me hours of refreshing the IRS site tbh

yep! just upload your docs and it breaks everything down - tells you your cycle code, projected deposit date, and flags any potential holdups. way better than guessing

Tax transcripts typically update weekly (usually overnight between Thursday and Friday) for most people. However some accounts do get daily updates. Too early to see anything meaningful rn since you just filed yesterday. Give it about a week before checking again.

Instead of checking everyday and trying to decode the transcript yourself, you should try taxr.ai - it analyzes your transcript and tells you exactly when to expect updates and your refund. Its $4.99 but worth every penny for the peace of mind. https://taxr.ai

interesting...how accurate is it? does it actually predict dates or just general timeframes?

Super accurate! It predicted my deposit date down to the exact day. It looks at all your codes and cycle numbers and explains everything in plain english

Pro tip: sign up for informed delivery with USPS. Sometimes you'll see your refund check scanned before the WMR even updates
