          @Bev. Hmm. The Actc is a refundable credit that you claim on your 1040. It is refundable, so it does generate into your return as cash. It is a line on the 1040, not a separate worksheet like the Eitc. Or, do you mean the Ctc 2021, and that payment summary? Happy to help.

            Is your additional child tax credit a part of your refund balance shown on the IRS website?

              Update: No movement. Accepted 1/21, 1 bar WMR, transcripts n/a, Pather (Actc, Eitc w/Lookback). I will be eating lots of chocolate the next couple of weeks while I wait.

                Oh… And I always equate the “Losing the Bars” to it being 2 bars, because some of us never see the 2 bar step. Especially those of us that are effected by the PATH act.

                  Now for the phases in the waiting game. Phase 1, wait for bars to appear; For me its usually 24 hours after submission… (1 bar = Refund Received). Phase 2, wait for bars to disappear; Usually within the first 7 days… (Que the dreaded PATH act message). Phase 3, bars reappear; This used to be within 7 days, but since PATH started it has been between day 14 and 17 *post bars disappearing*… (3 bars = Refund Sent with DDD).

                    Ok, so originally I was going to wait until the 15th to file, but decided to submit my taxes today. I figured, why not; and went ahead and did it. I know the rules for those of us whom walk the PATH this year, and since I had nothing else better to do this morning… I went ahead and hit that submit button. A couple of weeks in PATH act jail wouldn’t hurt. I’ve done it since it started back in 2018.

                      @Nebula. Agree. Except I don’t think the majority of them are trying to be sneaky. Most are confusing the Ctc with Actc. Some believe if they received the advanced Ctc payments last year that they are now Path status. Some also think they are Pathers based on their income, without actually claiming the credit. And some…. have nothing better to do.

                        It’s amazing how many people want to falsely declare themselves PATHers. There’s nothing fun about waiting until the end of February to get your refund. If by some miracle a TRUE PATHer managed to escape the law, you wouldn’t calmly state: Filed 1/21 Accepted 1/21 DDD 2/2 PATHer. You’d post in all caps with several exclamation points and display utter shock. Y’all aren’t TRUE PATHers, just imposters, lol.

                            it appears we wait guys, as per the path act. Feb 15th at earliest. Maybe we will see movement on our transcripts at least.

                              I have Eitc but due to income, not claiming any dependent. Assuming I am still a Pather?

                                  PATHer here…

                                  Filed 1/20
                                  Received by IRS 1/21
                                  WMR = one bar (Return Received) on 1/24 (IRS Transcripts says nothing was received yet)
                                  WMR = PATH message on 1/28
                                  1/29 I check IRS transcripts, and IRS has message saying mine are currently unavailable.

                                  Hoping the next time I check IRS transcripts I’ll see a DDD and/or processing date.

                                  EDIT: 1/30 Transcripts now show Processing Date of 2/14/2022

                                  Cheers and good luck everyone!

                                    Now I got the PATH message on WMR. Transcript still has processing date of Feb. 14, no 846 code.

                                      Anyone else whom claim to get the credit without these terms are trolling and probably are the same ones that come on IGMR every year just to troll and upset those of us whom are walking the PATH, just for kicks and their own sick gratifications. Its like @antsymomof4 said…. No one is above the law, and no one can escape the Feb 15th wait, unless you are not a PATHer or got the Pay advance.

                                        Unfortunately, there’s no exception to the LAW that has been in place for years. The problem here is either the same trolls as every year that comes out to mess with people or people who are confusing CTC and ACTC and EITC

                                        I agree.

                                          I came to the forum to see if anyone else got a DDD because I filed on 1/25 and didn’t think anything of it because I’m a PATHer. Checked my status today only because I downloaded the IRS app and absolutely shocked to see I have a DDD of 2/2.

                                          Anyone else????

                                              I’d bet these people are the same ones that will be going on FB/Twitter and other forums on IGMR complaining about how they still didn’t get their refunds, come may 2022. Lying about getting their refunds and later complaining about not getting theirs. I found a few people doing this a few years back. Pathetic.

                                                The only people getting early refunds are those who claimed CTC ONLY (this is not PATH worthy), and those whom claimed the EIC and or ACTC through a tax company, and got refund advances through their professionals companies (H&R Block/Turbo Tax/Walmart/ etc.

                                                        Can someone explain between CTC/ACTC&EIC? Because I’m seeing people state CTC is not the path act.

                                                        Correct.
                                                        CTC= child tax credit (you are not a PATHer)
                                                        ACTC= Additional ” ” ” (you are now a PATHer)
                                                        EITC= Earned Income Tax Credit (PATHer)

                                                                I figured why rush, when our taxes wont be processed until Feb 15th anyway, and why sit in limbo for 6 to 8 weeks when you can wait 2 to 3 weeks after filing to get your taxes anyway? It’s my sons first time filing, and I gave him the heads up that he will be waiting until at the very least, the last week of Feb before he sees anything in his bank account. He sounded a little disappointed at what I told him, but then he was reminded that it’s still money in the bank.

                                                                        I have my transcript no 846, says something abou 2/14/22 and it usually comes a few days prior to that date. We shall see.

                                                                      • #4503745

                                                                        • #4503741

The problem here is either the same trolls as every year that comes out to mess with people or people who are confusing CTC and ACTC and EITC

This year, I filed the 24th, accepted same day, next day showed one bar on WMR, today my transcripts changed to 846 for the 1st. Confused, but agree that maybe the early pay outs for the child tax made it so it doesn’t have to be held. I’ll see on the 1st, but that’s what it says. Weird.

Haven’t checked transcripts as I’m so sure it hasn’t updated yet cuz it’s only been a day. I’m also hoping like you all that since we received our CTC monthly they won’t hold our returns til after 2/15 🙏. Let’s have a positive & exciting tax season with lots of great news!

It seems since we were receiving the Advanced CTC payments from July-December which were just an advance on the credit for this tax season, there is no reason to audit or hold the returns for fraud since the actual credit was already approved. Fingers crossed the rest of us also start seeing DDDs sooner than after 2/15.

Transcripts show processing date of 02/14/2022. Expect that my return will finish processing on the 14th to issue refund. All transcripts are now available, no 846 code expected until 14th.
