If I could give 10 stars I would
If I could give 10 stars I would If I could give 10 stars I would Such an amazing service so needed during the times when EDD almost never picks up Claimyr gets me on the phone with EDD every time without fail faster. A much needed service without Claimyr I would have never received the payment I needed to support me during my postpartum recovery. Thank you so much Claimyr!
Really made a difference
Really made a difference, save me time and energy from going to a local office for making the call.
Worth not wasting your time calling for hours.
Was a bit nervous or untrusting at first, but my calls went thru. First time the wait was a bit long but their customer chat line on their page was helpful and put me at ease that I would receive my call. Today my call dropped because of EDD and Claimyr heard my concern on the same chat and another call was made within the hour.
An incredibly helpful service
An incredibly helpful service! Got me connected to a CA EDD agent without major hassle (outside of EDD's agents dropping calls ā which Claimyr has free protection for). If you need to file a new claim and can't do it online, pay the $ to Claimyr to get the process started. Absolutely worth it!
Consistent,frustration free, quality Service.
Used this service a couple times now. Before I'd call 200 times in less than a weak frustrated as can be. But using claimyr with a couple hours of waiting i was on the line with an representative or on hold. Dropped a couple times but each reconnected not long after and was mission accomplished, thanks to Claimyr.
IT WORKS!! Not a scam!
I tried for weeks to get thru to EDD PFL program with no luck. I gave this a try thinking it may be a scam. OMG! It worked and They got thru within an hour and my claim is going to finally get paid!! I upgraded to the $60 call. Best $60 spent!

Oh my goodness, please be careful when your check arrives! Last year my neighbor had their refund check stolen right out of their mailbox! š± I'd recommend checking your mail daily and setting up informed delivery if possible. The IRS takes FOREVER to reissue stolen checks - my poor neighbor waited almost 3 months for a replacement. The whole process was so stressful for them. I always use direct deposit to avoid this exact situation.

I'm still waiting for mine too! Also dated 03/03/2025 and getting nervous since it's been over a week now. Reading through these comments is really helpful though - sounds like we're still within the normal timeframe. I'm in California and wondering if location makes a difference in delivery times. Has anyone else from the West Coast received theirs yet? I might try that informed delivery signup that was mentioned earlier.

my transcript had this last month. ended up getting an extra $800 i wasnt expecting. dont stress OP!
Looking at your transcript, the code 291 with -$2,176.00 is actually reducing your tax liability, which means MORE refund money for you! š The negative amount is confusing but it's working in your favor. The IRS basically said "oops, you don't owe as much tax as we thought" and adjusted it down. Combined with all those credits, you should be getting a nice chunk of change once that freeze gets lifted!

UPDATE YOUR DIRECT DEPOSIT INFO IN YOUR IRS ACCOUNT RIGHT NOW if you've changed banks since last year! I didn't update mine and they sent my refund to a closed account. Now I have to wait 6-8 weeks for a paper check. Learn from my mistake people!
the waiting is the hardest part! filed 2/12, accepted same day, transcript updated last friday with ddd of 3/17. just need to make it through 2 more days...
You're almost there! Many banks deposit a day early too, so you might see it tomorrow!
So close! I'm in the same boat with a DDD of 3/18. The anticipation is killing me but at least we can see the light at the end of the tunnel. Fingers crossed for both of us that it hits early! š¤

The DDD is usally acurate. Mine came on the day they said, around 3am. Congrats on finally getting out of the waiting game!
Congrats on finally getting a DDD! From my experience, most banks will post the refund exactly on the date shown (05/22 in your case), usually in the early morning hours between 12am-6am. Chase is pretty reliable about sticking to the exact date. Since you mentioned no offsets, you should get the full amount. Just keep an eye on your account that morning - it'll likely show up as a pending deposit first, then become available. The waiting is finally almost over!
Thanks for the detailed info! That's reassuring to hear about Chase being reliable with the timing. I'm definitely going to be refreshing my banking app way too much on the morning of the 22nd lol. After months of uncertainty it's going to feel so good to finally see that deposit hit!

Whatever you do, DON'T ignore this notice! I made that mistake thinking it was an error that would fix itself, and ended up with wage garnishment. Even if you're disputing the amount, make sure to respond to the CP22A within the timeframe listed on the notice.

ā¢100% this. You can also file Form 12153 Request for Collection Due Process Hearing which puts collections on hold while you work it out. That's what I did when I got hit with a similar notice claiming I owed $5k. Bought me time to get everything sorted without penalties continuing to accrue.

This situation is really concerning, especially since you never filed any carryback forms. I went through something similar last year when the IRS claimed I owed money for amendments I never made. A few things to prepare for your Monday call: 1. Have your 2019 tax return copy ready, along with proof of your original $19,500 payment 2. Get that account transcript @Lena mentioned - it's crucial for understanding the timeline 3. Ask the IRS rep to provide the exact date and method of how this carryback claim was supposedly filed 4. Request they mail you a complete copy of whatever carryback form they have on file The fact that they "lost" your original return and now this mysterious claim appeared is a major red flag. Document everything during your call - date, time, representative ID, and exactly what they tell you. If they can't provide concrete proof of when and how you filed this carryback claim, you have grounds to dispute it. Don't let them pressure you into paying immediately. You have rights as a taxpayer, and if this is their error (which it sounds like it is), they need to fix it.
