Curious re: transcripts

[Kate]

Curious is anyone has looked back at transcripts to compare previous years….

Currently my 2018 account transcript has not completed updated (cannot see my return yet)…(PATH)
there is an as of date of 2/18/19

2017- as of date 5/28/18 (filed super late)
Processing date 5/21/18
Refund issues 5/9/18

2016- did not file stay at home mom

2015 tax period (non-Path)….. as of 2/22/16
processing date of 2/15/16
refund issue 846 date 1/29/16

any trends for anyone else?

I just went back and looked at mine. I’m a PATHer.

2017
Processing date 2/13
Refund sent 2/23
2018
Processing date 2/12
Refund sent 2/22

So the past 2 years I’ve gotten my refund exactly 10 days after the processing date.
I hope that’s not the case this year as my processing date in 2/18 but we’ll see.

It’s funky and I’ll be interested to see as well. I don’t have my processing date yet for this year just my as of date near the top. But each year my processing date has been one week before the as of date and refund a week or so before. But this is my first year with ACTC so I have no clue now!!

My question is if my processing date was 02/19/2018 and my refund issue date was 02/22/2018 How did i receive it on 02/16/2018 or should I say doesn’t that mean the irs released my refund on that day being that with the use of netspend funds are available as soon as they get the funds? Also if my processing date this year is 02/18/2019 I’m assuming my refund issue date will be 02/21/2019 When should I expect my refund this year as I am no longer using netspend this year I bank with citizens bank and this is my first time using citizens does anyone know if citizens releases funds immediately?

2017 my cycle code was 20170505 my processing date was 02/19/2018 and my refund issue date was 02/22/2018 But I received my refund on 02/16/2018 have to mention I used my netspend card for my direct deposit last year. I can’t remember when my wmr updated with my ddd but all the other info is accurate as I went back and looked at last year’s transcript and past direct deposits.

Hey @Kate!
I did the research too. Here are my findings:

2019
Filed – 1/23
Accepted – 1/24
Updated to PATH on WMR – 1/31
Transcripts Available 1/29
Process date 02/11/19
Cycle Code 20190405
Note: I have ACTC but no EIC

2018
Processing date on transcript 2/19/18
Issue date next to 846 code: 2/7/18
Actually hit my bank account (i use NetSpend so it is quick): 2/2/18 – I hadn’t even updated to two bars at that point.
NOTE: I did not fall under PATH last year

2017
Processing date on transcript 2/20/17
Issue date next to 846 code: 2/23/17
Actually hit my bank account (i use NetSpend so it is quick): 2/20/17
NOTE: I did have EIC

2016
Processing date on transcript 2/22/16
Issue date next to 846 code: 2/10/16
Actually hit my bank account (i use NetSpend so it is quick): 2/7/16
NOTE: I did have EIC

My biggest take away is that I have never received a refund after my processing date.
