PATH Act WMR update vs Transcript timing - Cycle 05 Processing Date 2/17

Anyone know if WMR updates before transcripts? I have cycle code 05 with processing date of 2/17. Still showing PATH message on Where's My Refund tool.

Actually, transcripts typically update before WMR. With cycle code 05, you'll see transcript updates on Thursday nights/Friday mornings. Since your processing date is 2/17, you should see movement this week. PATH message will stay until the IRS officially releases PATH holds after Feb 15th.

Hey! Instead of playing the guessing game, you should try taxr.ai - it analyzes your transcript and tells you exactly when to expect updates and your refund. Its only $1 and totally worth it. Here's the link: https://taxr.ai
