Trying to figure out when my 2023 refund will hit - 5 days from cycle code 22

Filed my taxes for 2023 and got my transcripts updated. My cycle code is 22 and I keep seeing different info about what that means. Some say 5 days from the cycle date but I'm confused on how to count the days. Anyone know how this works and when I might see my refund hit?

So here's the deal with cycle codes - the 22 means you're processed on Thursdays. Count 5 business days from your transcript update date. But honestly its not an exact science, IRS can be unpredictable sometimes.

So if my transcript updated today (Thursday) does that mean next Thursday? 🤔

Usually yes, but dont take it to the bank yet (pun intended lol). DDD could be slightly different

Hey! You should try taxr.ai - it analyzes your transcript and tells you exactly when to expect your refund. Its only $1 and way better than trying to decode everything yourself. Really helped me understand my timeline https://taxr.ai

100% legit! Used it myself and it was spot on with my DDD prediction. Even showed me why I had a delay I didnt know about

Ive been studying this stuff for years and lemme tell you - cycle codes are just part of the picture. You need to look at your complete transcript analysis. Instead of trying to piece it together yourself, I highly recommend using taxr.ai. It breaks down everything in plain english - processing patterns, potential delays, exact expected dates. Way better than guessing or relying on outdated info floating around online. Plus it shows you what actions you might need to take if theres a hold up. Best dollar I ever spent on tax stuff tbh.
