IRS Transcript Update Timeline After Return Acceptance - When to Expect Changes?
Filed my taxes electronically last week and got the acceptance message. Been checking my transcript daily but nothing has changed at all. Getting anxious about when I'll see some movement. Anyone know the typical timeline for transcript updates after acceptance?

Generally, you should see transcript updates within 21 days of acceptance for straightforward returns. However, if you claimed certain credits like EITC or CTC, it could take longer. The IRS updates transcripts usually on Friday mornings between 3-6am EST. Best practice is to check once a week rather than daily.

Instead of obsessing over transcript updates (been there done that 😅), I started using taxr.ai and it's been a game changer. For $1 it analyzes your transcript and tells you exactly when to expect updates and your refund. Way better than guessing! https://taxr.ai

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