*typo in my last post*
I did not claim EITC but did claim CTC. I have two bars on WMR today and it shows direct deposit sent to my bank on January 27th. I’m pretty excited! Good luck everyone!

My return was approved today. 2 bars on wmr with a direct deposit date of January 27th! I claimed HOH, 1 dependent and CTC. I did note claim EITC.

I’m not sure if it is just me and I don’t mean to boast. I have been working since I was 14 years old.. I used to go to places like Jackson Hewitt & H&R block, but I finally got hip and started doing my own taxes through Turbo Taxes program online for free(super easy guys). Every year the day that I file I get accepted that exact same day. I do have 2 dependents and I qualify for the EIC. Not sure if it’s because they are recycling my information and the IRS sites recognizes it by the way it comes in ( I don’t know a unique identifier). And like many years before I never early file and I never do it the day the IRS opens (I did mine today and was accepted within the hour). I hope this helps some folks.

Typo. I meant the IRS accepted the return on 13 January.

I was able to order both transcripts but they show a refund issue date of February 13 even though I filed on 7 Jan and return was accepted y the IRS on 13 Feb. I hope this doesn’t mean I am lumped in with those who filed EITC and other tax credits as I am single, don’t have any dependents or tax credits.

I was able to order both transcripts this morning.

I was told that they are not doing anyines taxes till the end of month that you can file and you will get the “accepted on whatever date” but thats all you will get for at least a week till they actually start doing them?? I filed the 18th i have nit even checked the refund site figured it is way too early

Filed on 1/6, accepted on 1/13 with TT, no credits, pd for fees up front, WMR one bar as of this afternoon 1pm EST. Hoping to see dd this week :-)

[Nechelle]

I filed on Jan. 6th and was accepted on the 13th. I still as of earlier this morning only had 1 bar on wmr. I wish everyone luck.

I’m not claiming either EIC or AC, I filed and was accepted on 1/13 with one bar showing. Who ever it was above that said thier bar disappeared – well mine does too but it has always comes back.
I check WMR twice a day and some days when I log in the bar is there. Other times I log in the bar is gone with a message saying no info available, please wait 24 hours after return has been accepted. (?) Then when ever I log in again and my bars are back. I’ve heard several different things as to why early filers bars disappear- from pulled for audit to system tests to WMR is overloaded. I wish I knew which explaination was correct. Do any of you?

[Coral]

I don’t think American opportunity credit will be held! Hopefully we will all get our DDDs soon! We should keep each other updated!

[Carol]

Filed 1/17 through do it yourself turbo tax accepted by irs on 1/18 have had one bar on wmr but the bar does disappear and return

[Curious-somebody]

I filled on the 19th and one bar already when I checked today. I am claming American opportunity tax credit. I hope that is not going to delay my refund? Thanks for your response!

[MommaOF4]

I filed on 1/15 accepted on 1/17
Claiming child tax credit, but not EIC or ACTC.
One bar on WMR ?

[Nana72]

I’m not claiming either. I filed on the 15th and was accepted on the 17th. 1 bar on wmr. Hope all goes well and we get a ddd very soon!!!

[MaryB]

Me! I filed the 14th, accepted the 17th.

[mick]

I filed with turbotax with no credits on the 13th . Accepted by the IRS on the 17th and showing one bar on WMR on the 18th. TT says refund anywhere from the 24th to Feb 13th with direct deposit. Good luck all . Mick.

[KM]

I am only claiming Single with 1 dependent and I filed on the 18th and was accepted the next day. At one point WMR site showed one bar but now shows nothing.

[Aswang]

I’m not claiming any of those credits. I filed on the 6th and was told by email from H&R Block online that my federal was accepted on the 13th. W.M.R. still says accepted. No updates. It can be confusing because I’ve read that people who were accepted early were part of a test batch and that we might get our refunds early. Then I read some comments saying that even if we were accepted early the IRS still won’t process the return until the 23rd and we won’t see a refund until Feb. 3rd at the earliest. I’m not sure what to believe. I’ve been part of an early test batch before in 2013 for 2012 taxes and my refund was early, I guess this year is different though. I am just going to wait it out because truthfully that’s all you can do at this point.

[Coral]

I don’t think that’s covered the law.

[Charlotte]

I filed and did not claim eitc or actc. But I did claim a child tax credit but not “additional” actc. I’m kind of confused by that and if there is a difference between the two. Not sure if my refund will be held till Feb 15th or not. I claimed HOH, 2 dependents. Taxes were accepted by IRS 1/13/17.
