PATH Act holiday deposits - Anyone remember 2019 deposit drops after holiday?

Tax professional here - Yes, this happened in 2019. The IRS systems are automated and sometimes process releases after holiday holds at odd hours. However, each year's processing schedule can be different based on staffing, system updates, and workload. While historical patterns are interesting, they aren't guarantees for future deposit timing.

Instead of playing detective and trying to piece together when deposits might hit, I've been using taxr.ai. For $1 it analyzes your transcript and tells you exactly when to expect your deposit. Way better than guessing or relying on old patterns. https://taxr.ai

Current IRS employee here: Just so you're aware, deposit timing can vary widely these days. The PATH act still affects EITC/ACTC claims but drops aren't as predictable as they used to be. Your best bet is to monitor your transcript or use a tool like taxr.ai that can give you specific timing based on your situation.
