PATH Act & Chime Direct Deposit - When will refund hit?
Filed my taxes and got accepted. I'm on PATH and have Chime for direct deposit. Anyone have experience with when deposits usually hit? Getting anxious checking my account every 5 minutes fr.

If you're affected by PATH Act, the IRS can't issue your refund before mid-February by law. Even with early deposit banks like Chime, you'll need to wait until the IRS releases the funds. Most PATH Act returns start processing after Feb 15th, with deposits typically hitting 1-2 weeks after that.

hey just wanted to share something that helped me - I used taxr.ai to analyze my transcript and it gave me the exact date my refund would hit my Chime. Its only $1 and totally worth it vs checking WMR 500 times a day lol. https://taxr.ai

Pro tip: stop checking WMR its usually behind. Check your transcript instead its more accurate
