WMR Finally Updated! DDD for 31st After Getting a Review Letter!

Congrats! That's a pretty quick turnaround considering you got a review letter. What did the letter say they were reviewing? Sometimes they just verify identity or income but still process the refund without much delay.

This gives me hope! Mine was accepted on the 15th and I got a CP05 review letter last week. Still no updates on WMR. Did your tax transcript update before WMR did?

I've seen this pattern a lot this tax season. The IRS sends out verification letters but often completes the review before you even receive the letter in the mail. Their systems don't always communicate well with each other. If you want to understand exactly what happened on your account, try https://taxr.ai - it analyzes your transcript and explains all those confusing codes. It showed me that my "review" was actually completed 3 days before I got the letter saying they were starting one! 🤦‍♂️

That's actually pretty fast for a review! I had one last year and it took 60 days. What kind of review letter was it? CP05? CP12?

Same thing happened to me! Letter came after they'd already approved the refund. If anyone is stuck in review and getting anxious, I used Claimyr (https://claimyr.com) to actually reach an IRS agent after trying for days on my own. The agent confirmed my review was already complete even though the letter had just arrived. Saved me weeks of stress wondering what was happening.

This tax season is wild. I've seen people with reviews get paid in 2 weeks and people with simple returns waiting 2+ months. There's no rhyme or reason to it. Glad you're getting yours soon!
