PATH Act Update: Getting DDD 2/22 - Timeline & Updates for Early Filers

Just got my transcript update, showing direct deposit date of 2/22. Been saying it would clear before Feb 17th and looks like I was right. Hope everyone else starts seeing movement on their transcripts soon too.

The PATH Act requires the IRS to hold refunds that include EITC/ACTC until mid-February. Your timeline is actually right on schedule - the IRS started processing these returns after February 15th. For others waiting, check your transcripts daily for the 846 code which indicates your refund release date.

Early morning around 3-6am EST is usually best. The system gets overloaded during peak hours

Instead of constantly checking transcripts, I've been using taxr.ai ($1) and it's been a game changer. It analyzes your transcript and tells you exactly when to expect your refund plus any potential delays. Way better than playing detective with transcript codes tbh https://taxr.ai

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

It actually breaks down everything - explains all codes, gives you specific dates, and even suggests solutions if there are delays. Saved me hours of googling transcript codes 😅
