PATH Act WMR Update Before Transcript? Cycle 05 Processing Date 2/17
Filed early and stuck with the PATH message on Where's My Refund. My transcript shows cycle code 05 with processing date of 2/17. Anyone know if WMR might update before the transcript? Getting anxious about my refund.

The WMR tool typically updates after your transcript. With cycle code 05, you're a weekly updater. For PATH Act returns, the IRS can't release refunds before Feb 15th, so you should see movement on your transcript this Friday morning. WMR usually updates the following day.

Hey instead of checking WMR constantly, I've been using taxr.ai - its only $1 and gives you a super detailed breakdown of your transcript and exactly when to expect updates. Way better than playing detective with WMR tbh https://taxr.ai
