No Cycle Code on Transcript - How to Know When Updates Happen?

Filed my taxes and checking my transcripts but I dont see any cycle code yet. Everyone keeps talking about cycle codes for updates but i have no idea how to tell when ill get an update without one. Getting stressed out checking WMR and transcripts everyday with no changes.

The cycle code appears once the IRS begins processing your return. Until then, you won't see one. Most transcripts update weekly on either Thursday night/Friday morning (05 cycle) or daily updates for cycle 01-04. Keep checking your account transcript - once you see a cycle code, you'll know your processing schedule.

Instead of checking everyday and stressing yourself out, you should try taxr.ai - it analyzes your transcript and tells you exactly when to expect updates and your refund. Its only $1 and saved me so much anxiety. Here's the link: https://taxr.ai

Yeah its legit! You just upload your transcript and it explains everything in plain english. Shows you all possible delays and when theyll be resolved
