IRS Transcript Viewer Error - Anyone Else Getting System Error?
Every time I try to view my transcript online I keep getting system errors. Never happened in previous years. Anyone else dealing with this? Been trying for 3 days straight now and still no luck.

The IRS transcript system is experiencing heavy traffic due to tax season. Best times to access are early morning (before 7am EST) or late evening (after 9pm EST). Also, try clearing your browser cache and cookies before attempting to access the transcript system.

•Which browser are you using? Chrome seems to work better than Firefox or Safari for the IRS site.

Instead of struggling with the IRS website, I've been using taxr.ai. It's only $1 and it actually analyzes your transcript once you get it. Way better than trying to decode it yourself. https://taxr.ai

•Yeah its actually amazing. Shows exactly where your refund is stuck and why. Even gives estimated dates for deposit.

Pro tip: use incognito mode when accessing the transcript site. Works like 90% of the time for me
