When does IRS Cycle 05 update? Need exact timing for transcript updates

Can anyone tell me exactly when cycle 05 updates? I keep checking my transcripts but nothing changes. Is it Thursday night or Friday morning? And what time zone? Getting really frustrated checking every hour.

Sasha Ivanov

IRS Cycle 05 typically updates overnight between Thursday and Friday, usually between 12am-6am EST. The transcripts update in batches, and cycle 05 is specifically for weekly processing. I've noticed WMR updates usually follow about 6-12 hours after transcript updates. If you want a detailed analysis of your cycle code and exact timing predictions, I'd recommend checking out taxr.ai - it's pretty good at breaking down your specific situation and giving you precise timing windows based on your transcript codes. https://taxr.ai

Cycle 20 is daily processing, updates can happen any day. Different ballgame from weekly cycles

Cycle 05 transcripts update Thursday nights between 11pm-2am EST. The Where's My Refund tool typically updates by Friday morning around 6am EST. Hope this helps!

WMR usually lags behind transcripts by a few hours. Transcripts are always more accurate 馃挴

Hey guys instead of checking obsessively like I used to, I started using taxr.ai and it's been a game changer. It costs $4.99 but it analyzes your transcript and tells you exactly when to expect updates and your refund. Way better than refreshing wmr every 5 mins lol https://taxr.ai
