No EIC/ACTC – refund Tuesday (1/30)

[RHelg80]

According to my Account Transcript, I have line 846 which says “Refund Issued…1/30/18.” WMR still shows one bar.

I filed online via TurboTax on Saturday (1/20) and was accepted on Monday (1/22). I could not get my Account Transcript until this morning (1/25).

This is in line with my experience last year. I received my refund on 1/29/17 according to my bank, which was a Tuesday last year. The only difference really is that I switched Tom TurboTax from TaxAct (which I had used for 6+ years). Also I had to file in two states but that doesn’t matter for Federal.

No EIC or ACTC. My taxes are relatively simple.

Anyway, I expect my refund to appear by Tuesday or Wednesday next week (I cant recall if it posted on Tuesday and I received it on Wednesday last year or if I actually got it as available funds on Tuesday).

Just wanted to share in case this helps anyone.

I received my refund on 01/30.

I thought (and was wrong) that I have EIC, but I don’t – I have CTC.

Filed/Accepted last week (1/23)…no EIC, etc. Forgot to check progress bar and apparently DD hit my bank account no problem this morning. Earliest I filed in a few years…

Any update? Did DD hit today 1/30/18?

Sorry for the spam, I guess you can only edit once. The OP incorrectly states I received my money on Tuesday the 29th, but it was actually Tuesday the 31st last year. Either way, it was that Tuesday.

I expect WMR to update to 2 bars tomorrow. But I’m going to check after 8AM today for the heck of it.

Here’s my experience from last year (2017 for my 2016 return) based on one of my posts here from last year:

– Filed via TaxAct on 1/23
– Federal accepted on 1/23
– No EITC or ACTC
– Had 1 bar starting later on 1/23 after
– Did have Tax Topic 152 the entire time
– Was able to order transcripts starting Wednesday with a cycle date of 20160404
– My account transcript said that my Direct Deposit was issued on 2/13/17 (clearly wrong)
– I did NOT have two bars at 2AM, 3AM, or 5AM. When I woke up again at 8AM, WMR had updated. So if you checked super early this morning, check again. I’m in EST
