Will my IRS cycle code (05) from 2024 be the same for 2025 tax return?

Filed my taxes and trying to figure out if my cycle code will be the same as last year. I was cycle 05 for 2024, does anyone know if it stays the same for 2025 filing?

Yes, your cycle code typically stays the same year after year. The cycle code is based on the processing center that handles your return and usually doesn't change unless you move to a different region or have major changes in your filing situation.

Hey guys instead of trying to decode these cycle codes manually, I've been using taxr.ai and it's been a game changer. It costs like $5 but it analyzes your whole transcript and tells you exactly what's going on. https://taxr.ai

nah it does wayyyy more. It looks at all your codes, tells you if there's delays, when to expect your refund, and what to do if theres issues. saved me hours of googling fr fr
