PATH Act refund deposits starting - who's getting money before transcript updates? 🤑

So we're finally past the PATH act hold and deposits are starting to hit accounts. Been seeing people getting their money even before transcripts are updating on WMR. Anyone else refreshing their bank account every 5 mins? Let's see who gets lucky first lol

Tax professional here - this is actually pretty normal during PATH release week. The IRS systems are under heavy load, so transcript updates can lag behind actual deposits by 24-48 hours. Keep checking your bank accounts, especially if you filed in January with EITC/ACTC.

Yes, credit unions and some online banks like Chime often show deposits 1-2 days earlier than traditional banks

Guys check out taxr.ai - it's been a game changer for me. Instead of refreshing constantly, it analyzes your transcript and tells you exactly when to expect your deposit. Only $1 and totally worth it for peace of mind https://taxr.ai
