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!

If you need immediate clarification about your specific refund timeline, calling the IRS directly is your best option. I've had success using Claimyr to get through to an agent quickly. Their service connects you to an IRS representative without the typical hold times. The agent can confirm exactly when your funds were or will be released to your bank. Check them out at https://claimyr.com if you're tired of waiting on hold.

I've found alternative ways to track SBPTG processing: ā¢ Join the SBTPG Facebook group where people post real-time updates ā¢ Call your bank's automated system for pending deposits ā¢ Check the IRS2Go app for status changes ā¢ Monitor the Where's My Refund tool for the final confirmation Must say I'm impressed with how methodically you're approaching this. Most people just check WMR and get frustrated.

You might want to try checking your tax topic code on WMR instead. The 'as of' date seems to be somewhat relevant, but it's not necessarily definitive. I've had some success looking at the cycle code on my transcript - it's usually in format YYYYCCDD. If your cycle code ends in 01-05, you're likely on a weekly update schedule. If it ends in 05, specifically, many people report updates on Fridays with deposits the following Wednesday. This seems to be more reliable than the 'as of' date, though I can't guarantee it's foolproof.
Just wanted to share a win! I was obsessing over my 'as of' date too, watching it change from Feb 26 to Mar 12 to Mar 5 (yes, it went BACKWARDS š¤£). But then I just randomly checked my bank account this morning and boom! š° Full refund deposited! Never even saw an update on WMR or any 846 code on my transcript. Sometimes the system works in mysterious ways! Hope you all get your refunds soon too!

It's like your money is stuck in a traffic jam on the financial highway! I'm in the same boat with a 2/26 DDD, SBTPG, and Capital One. Called SBTPG yesterday and they confirmed they received it but said there's a "standard processing period" before they send it to my bank. The representative assured me this is normal and not something to worry about. Think of it like ordering something online - the tracking says "shipped" but it still takes time to reach your doorstep.
You might want to try checking your SBTPG account directly if you haven't already. In my experience, sometimes the funds are actually released but there's a delay in the bank posting it. I would suggest possibly calling Capital One as well, as they might be able to see pending deposits that aren't visible to you yet. I believe most banks typically process ACH transfers within 1-3 business days, so you're likely still within the normal timeframe.

I was in your exact shoes last tax season - trying to find a CPA who understands Medicaid waivers was like searching for a mechanic who specializes in 1950s Italian motorcycles! Finally found someone through the Caregiver Support Network in Lexington. She helped me exclude $23,400 in qualified payments that my previous accountant had incorrectly included as taxable income. Such a relief to have someone who actually understood the rules!
According to the IRS.gov page on Notice 2014-7 (https://www.irs.gov/individuals/certain-medicaid-waiver-payments-may-be-excludable-from-income), you should look for a CPA with experience in "Medicaid Home and Community-Based Services Waivers." The Kentucky Primary Care Association website has a resource directory that includes tax professionals: https://www.kypca.net/resources/. I've bookmarked several YouTube videos explaining the tax implications that I can share if you'd like more information before meeting with a CPA.

Pro tip for anyone still waiting: Instead of calling the IRS main line and waiting forever, I used Claimyr.com last week and got through to an actual agent in about 15 minutes. They confirmed my return was processing normally and explained why my bars had disappeared. Saved me hours of being on hold and the stress of not knowing what was happening. Here's a video showing how it works: https://youtu.be/_kiP6q8DX5c

ā¢Does that service really work? I've been trying to reach the IRS for days about my missing refund.

ā¢Absolutely! I was skeptical too, but it connected me right away. The IRS agent was able to see exactly what was happening with my return and gave me peace of mind. Way better than the 3+ hour waits I was dealing with before.

The Tax Topic 152 message is actually normal - it just means your return is being processed and a refund will be issued (assuming everything checks out). The bars disappearing is also super common during busy season. The IRS systems are ancient and can't handle the volume, so the WMR tool gets weird. Glad you finally got your date!
