Now! When you submit your return before the IRS begins processing, it will sit in a “queue” and be held until the date that the IRS will officially accept tax returns. If you e-file early and it sits in queue, your return may be sent to the IRS early in a test batch. This has resulted in early direct deposits in the past, but also major glitches because they are tests after all.
The IRS begins begins accepting tax returns this year on January 23, 2023.
2023 Refund Cycle Chart
The most recent tax refund cycle charts have already been published. The official IRS tax refund cycle chart has been eliminated and replaced with IRS FAQs. The IRS says the best way to check the status of your refund is using the Where‘s My Refund tool. However, various websites with refund calendars for the 2023 tax season (2022 tax year) have been updated with 2023 direct deposit and check mailing dates.
IRS Refund Schedule Charts typically show that early filers whose returns are accepted before the end of January can anticipate a tax refund direct deposit as early as the first week of February. The day that IRS deposits refunds varies but we notice trends that help you determine the time and days WMR updates and when your tax return is processed. This is an explanation and FAQ about when the IRS updates, WMR and Transcripts.
The refund calendar by the College Investor is a good reference which has been updated for 2023 here: When To Expect My Tax Refund.

Question! Maybe you know the answer. Can I update my bank information if mt refund was sent to a closed account? Credit karma closed my account bc my refund never made it bc of an offset delay. Transcript has 846 code but no notice besides the offset.

I have a 971 code for tax period being blocked for automated levy program

@PBanMelly: The IRS reports that code 571 on a transcript means that it is a reversal of tax code 570 or 576. This status appears when a previous action on a taxpayer’s record is reversed for a specific reason. It indicates that a credit on hold or a pending liability has changed its status, and the issue is now resolved.
This is what I found when I looked it up

So my taxes where adjust, which I am going to amend. I still don’t have a refund date, I have a code saying they finshed assessments with 20230405 behind it, then I have two notice codes dated 11/27? Does anyone who had this issues understand it? It stills says I am due a refund which is still incorrect because of the irs.

Sooooo 10 months later…… I finally have a 846 core with the date 11/16 as well as 30 bucks in credit…like excuse me I think the interest is a little higher than that considering it was their fault I even had to wait this long. My question is the as of date saying 11/27 when we get the refund or is it the date next to 846?
Thanks
