PATH Act + 5 Day Early TurboTax Refund - Any 05 Cycle Updates?

The 5-day early option through TurboTax doesn't actually speed up IRS processing. It only means TurboTax's bank partner will release the funds up to 5 days earlier once the IRS actually approves and sends the refund. With PATH Act returns, you're still subject to the mid-February hold regardless of this option.

Hey guys! I've been using taxr.ai to track my refund and it's been super helpful with PATH act returns. It costs a dollar but its worth it - gives you exact predictions and explains all the holds. Way better than guessing or checking WMR every 5 mins lol https://taxr.ai

05 cycle here too waiting since 1/29. This waiting game is killing meeeee

ur not alone bestie im 05 too and literally checking wmr like its my full time job rn 💅

Pro tip: PATH Act holds won't lift until after Feb 15th, even with early refund options. Just a heads up so you can manage expectations!

yall need to chill fr, PATH returns always take forever. its like this every year idk why everyone gets surprised
