Every year it's the same anxiety-inducing BS with the IRS š¤¦āāļø I got my DDD email last week, nothing showed up by the date, I panicked, then it randomly appeared 2 days later. Their systems are from 1975 and run on hamster wheels I swear
UPDATE US WHEN IT HITS!!!! i'm in the same boat and need some hope lol
The IRS is stuck in 1982 I swear. They're sending physical letters for verification when they could just text or email. It's ridiculous! I feel your pain.
has anyone tried just showing up at the IRS office with all your documents? like license, ssn card, birth certificate, etc and DEMAND they verify you? i'm wondering if the squeaky wheel approach works
omg what happened???
Let's just say I tried the "I'm not leaving until someone helps me" approach last year and ended up having a nice chat with a federal security officer. 0/10 would not recommend.
Did you have any credits like EITC or Additional Child Tax Credit? Those automatically get extra scrutiny and delay processing.
Yes I claimed EITC. But I do every year and never had problems before
am i the only one that thinks its INSANE we just have to sit and wait for our OWN MONEY with no real updates or communication? like this is our money they're holding not theirs! the irs needs to be completely rebuilt from the ground up
facts. and they'll charge us penalties and interest if we're late but they can take half a year to process a return with zero consequences
Last month I was struggling to understand my transcript with a similar cycle code. I used taxr.ai and it was a game changer - broke down all the codes, gave me a timeline prediction, and explained everything in normal English. No more playing detective with IRS codes! I've recommended it to all my friends who are waiting on refunds. https://taxr.ai
Everyone is focusing on the cycle code but what's more important is if you have any 570/971 combo codes on your transcript. Those indicate a review or adjustment is happening. Can you check for those? If you don't have them and just have the cycle code with a 150, you should be good to go without any issues.

Anybody else think its nuts that we can land a rover on Mars but the IRS cant tell us when our refund will arrive? 𤣠good luck OP, you're gonna need it

ā¢The IRS is still using computer systems from the 1960s. I wish I was joking. My cousin works there and says some of their code is older than most of their employees š
