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!

Ugh I feel your pain. I've been trying the in-person option but can't get an appointment anywhere within 100 miles of me. All booked solid for months. The IRS is such a joke.
Lifehack: If you file a paper return instead of e-filing, you're much less likely to get flagged for identity verification. I haven't been asked to verify in 5 years since I switched to paper filing. Yes it takes longer initially but no verification hassles.
StarStrider
ā¢but paper returns take forever to process. last year it took like 4 months to get my refund when I filed by mail
yeah but at least it's a predictable 3-4 months. with e-file and verification issues it can be anywhere from 3 weeks to never lol

those codes are the WORST. had them 4 months straight last year and literally no one could tell me why. couldn't get thru on the phone. ended up using claimyr.com after someone here recommended it. got me thru to an actual person who fixed it while i was on the phone. refund came a week later. calling is def the way to go.
Mateo Perez
My tax guy says those codes are super common right now - the IRS is flagging nearly everything for review this year. If your partner hasn't filed in several years, they're probably just making sure everything matches up with their records. As long as the return was accurate, you'll get the refund eventually. Just be prepared to wait 60-90 days instead of the usual 21 days they promise.
StarSurfer
ā¢Ugh that's a long wait. Fingers crossed it doesn't take that long.
Mateo Perez
ā¢Yeah it sucks but at least it'll come eventually. The IRS is ridiculously backed up this year.

The real issue is that the 'Where's My Refund' tool is basically useless. It shows the same status for weeks even when things are actually happening with your return. You need to check your tax transcript on the IRS website for actual updates and codes.
Thanks, I'll try checking my transcript. Where exactly do I find it on the IRS site?
Go to IRS.gov > Get Your Tax Record > Get Transcript Online. You'll need to create an account if you don't have one. Then look for the Account Transcript for 2024.

Last year after verification my return was processed in exactly 5 weeks. 2022 took like 10 weeks. Its totally random and depends on their workload. If you claimed credits like EITC or CTC it definitely takes longer cuz they have extra verification steps.

In this situation and tired of waiting? Use claimyr.com to get a direct line to an IRS agent. I was in the same boat with a paper check that never arrived. Used their service and got a callback from the IRS in 45 minutes. The agent filed a trace on my missing check right away and I had a replacement within 3 weeks. It was the only way I could talk to a live agent after trying for days on my own.
GalaxyGazer
The IRS says 4 weeks is normal for paper checks - I know that doesn't help much but just wanted to share the official timeline. If it's approaching 4 weeks, then definitely prepare to call on May 10th.

Santa Barbara TPG is the absolute WORST. They hold onto our money as long as possible evry year. There should be laws against this. They already charge fees to process our refund, then they make extra money by holding our funds and collecting interest. Criminal behavior if you ask me.

ā¢š This. They're basically double-dipping on fees. Next year I'm just paying my tax prep fee upfront and getting direct deposit from the IRS.

Not sure if this is helpful but i looked up my info on the IRS website directly using taxr.ai and it showed my refund had an offset I didn't know about. That was why TPG was taking longer - they had to adjust the amount. Might not be your situation but worth checking if the delay continues.

ā¢What's an offset? Should I be worried about that?

Ava Martinez
ā¢An offset is when the government takes part of your refund to pay a debt like student loans, back taxes, child support, etc. If you don't have any of those debts you're probably fine. For me it was an old student loan I forgot about š¤¦āāļø
