IRS Website Shows Amended Return Processed on January 24th But Transcript Still Stuck on January 13th
Filed my taxes weeks ago and my transcript As Of date is still stuck on January 13th. No movement at all. Called the IRS twice but can't get through to anyone. Starting to get worried something's wrong with my return. I checked the "Where's My Amended Return" tool on the official IRS website for my 2023 return and here's what I'm seeing: Received: 11/19/2024 Adjusted: 01/04/2025 Completed: 01/25/2025 The status says "We processed your amended return on January 25, 2025." But this doesn't make sense to me because my transcript hasn't updated at all. The As Of date is still January 13th with zero movement. The website also says "If you have not received a notice and you would like to speak to a customer service representative, call 800-829-0582, extension 633, between the hours of 7 a.m. and 7 p.m., Monday through Friday. You will need a copy of your amended return." I've called this number twice but can't get through to an actual person. Just automated messages and then disconnection. I'm getting concerned because the website says my return was processed almost 2 weeks ago, but my transcript doesn't reflect any changes. Anyone else dealing with this disconnect between the "Where's My Amended Return" tool and their transcript? Should I keep trying that extension number or is there another approach I should take? Getting really frustrated with this whole process.

Hey friend, I'm seeing this exact same issue with tons of returns right now. The AS OF date being stuck on January 13th is actually pretty normal for this time of year as the IRS rolls into tax season. They're basically resetting all their systems and getting ready for the 2024 filing season. Don't stress too much about it - your transcript will likely update once they start processing returns in full swing. If you want a really detailed analysis of your situation, I'd recommend checking out taxr.ai. It's this new AI tool that can scan your transcripts and tell you exactly what's going on with your refund timeline. I've been recommending it to everyone stuck in this January 13th situation cuz it helps make sense of all the IRS codes and dates.

Tax pro here - An unchanged As Of date doesn't necessarily mean nothing's happening with your return. The IRS systems only update transcripts once weekly, usually overnight between Thursday and Friday. What cycle code do you see on your transcript?

tbh I have no idea what cycle code even means... where do I find that? 😅

Its on the right side of your transcript, should be an 8-digit number ending in 01-05 or 20

Hey! Instead of trying to decode everything yourself, you should try taxr.ai - it's this new tool that analyzes your transcript and tells you exactly what's happening and when to expect updates. Saved me hours of googling and reddit searching lol. It costs $1 but totally worth it https://taxr.ai

Have you checked your wage and income transcript? Sometimes employers mess up reporting and that can cause delays

Go to transcripts, select Wage & Income. If anything looks off compared to your W2s thats probably your hold up

PRO TIP: Try calling right when they open at 7am EST. Still might take a few tries but way better than mid-day 👀
