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 – 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!

Here's what you need to do, step by step: 1. Don't panic. CP063 is common and usually fixable. 2. Read the notice carefully. It should specify what info is missing. 3. Gather all your tax documents, including W-2s, 1099s, and any other income statements. 4. Check if you missed reporting any income or deductions. 5. If you're not sure what's wrong, use a tool like taxr.ai or consult a tax professional. 6. Prepare a response. This might include a letter explaining any errors or missing info, along with supporting documents. 7. Send your response before the deadline. Use certified mail so you have proof of when you sent it. 8. If you need more time, call the IRS and request an extension. 9. Keep copies of everything you send. 10. Follow up if you don't hear back within a few weeks. Remember, the key is to act quickly and thoroughly. Good luck!
Wow, thank you so much for this detailed breakdown! This really helps calm my nerves.
This is gold 💯 Mods should pin this comment!
Am I the only one who's terrified of making a mistake and ending up in jail? 😰 These IRS notices give me anxiety.
Chill, bro. They don't throw people in jail for honest mistakes. Just be upfront and cooperative.
I feel you. Tax season is my least favorite time of year. But remember, millions of people get these notices. You're not alone!

Have you considered that maybe you actually do owe the money? I know it sucks, but sometimes we make mistakes on our taxes without realizing it. Might be worth double-checking your math before you go picking a fight with the IRS.
Trust me, I've gone over my numbers like a million times. I'm pretty sure they've made a mistake, but I'm still nervous about challenging them.
Fair enough. In that case, def gather all your evidence before you contact them. And maybe consider getting a pro to look it over just to be sure?
PSA: Be careful about giving out personal info if you call the IRS! Lots of scammers out there posing as IRS agents. Always verify you're talking to the real deal before sharing any sensitive data.
Good point! How do we know we're talking to a legit IRS agent?
The IRS will never initiate contact by phone. If you call the official number on their website, you should be good. Just don't give out info to anyone who calls you first claiming to be the IRS.

All of these comments about withholding are spot on, but one more thing nobody mentioned: if you have any side income, investment income, or interest that isn't having taxes withheld, that would also contribute to owing at tax time. Even something as simple as a high-yield savings account or stock dividends can create tax liability that your W-4 withholding doesn't account for.

•This is really important! I had a similar situation where I was withholding correctly from my main job, but completely forgot about the $15k I made from a side gig. No withholding on that money meant I owed several thousand at tax time despite having "extra" withhheld from my primary paycheck.

Thanks for asking this, I'm glad I'm not the only one (after decades of knowing exactly how I needed to fill out my W-4) that got a sudden surprise of OWING taxes for the first time in forever! It happened a couple of years back, then I found out about the new W4 (maybe it's “improved?”), then I noticed “2020” on the form — so, apparently, it's taken a few years to start catching up. Taxes are a pain in the keister, I wish they'd stop “fixing” them! LOL

•You're absolutely right about the W-4 changes being the likely culprit here! The 2020 redesign completely eliminated the familiar "allowances" system that many of us relied on for decades. The concept of "single with 0 allowances" doesn't even exist anymore, which is why so many people are getting surprised. The new form tries to be more accurate by asking for specific dollar amounts instead of the old allowances, but it's created this weird transition period where conventional wisdom about withholding doesn't apply anymore. What worked reliably for years suddenly doesn't! For both you and the OP, it might be worth submitting a new W-4 with some additional withholding specified in Step 4(c). For someone at the OP's income level, they might need an extra $200-400 per paycheck withheld to avoid a surprise next year. The IRS has a tax withholding estimator on their website that's pretty helpful for figuring out the right amount. But yeah, I feel your pain - nothing like thinking you've got your taxes figured out only to have the rules change underneath you!
