Y’all all pitiful just like me

[9966]

Y’all all pitiful

[9966]

Never meant to come off rude if I did my sincerest apology .

[its my $ and i want it now]

@9966 you dont need to be so rude dude

[Trista]

“Yes,” to the statement that the feeds are becoming less about updates & information.
If you have a firm understanding and conviction about when your information will update, wonderful! Please share it! Once shared, you may get follow-up requests for more info or clarification. Other than that, it will help end confusion & keep threads focused if posting participants only respond to questions rather than opinions.

If you have concerns about the validity of info shared, or to go further, if you are worried about intentionally misleading or malicious info/comments, report the posts or participants to the Keymasters of the site.

Finally, from a personal standpoint, if you genuinely believe there will be no new updates before February 17th, and have shared that belief here, your time may better be spent helping or focusing your attention elsewhere. Other participants here may simply need something to occupy their minds & time until they have more concrete information on their refunds. A little hope never hurts.

Gawd!!!! I seriously come here to check if anyone else has had any updates,and come and see a bunch of DRAMA! JEEZUS this looks like dam Facebook now. Updates only!!!!!!!!!!!!! It’s annoying to see the feeds now. 😠

[9966]

[Jaime]

Wont see any movement on WMR until 2/17

[its my $ and i want it now]

has anyony had a ddd today?

[Unicorn Kisses]

All – I apologize.

I was wrong and gave INCORRECT information.

After reviewing my return, realized I did NOT qualify for EIC. I only have the CTC credit (and no ACTC).

I had EIC last year. I thought I did as well this year and frankly, still don’t know why I didn’t…but it’s irrelevant.

I just wanted to apologize to everyone for my error/statement!

[Clubbin’ Gnomes]

@Lance – respectfully – I don’t understand myself and have said – it was a shock and nothing changed w/ my circumstances. I filed w/ EIC. That’s it. The only other two items was the amount I made in the year AND that I paid TT fees up front. Other than that, nothing changed so I don’t understand it myself.

I even went through the IRS website to ensure I qualified for EIC (because I thought perhaps my wages were too much and I DIDN’T qualify for EIC and just didn’t know it) – but I surely did qualify and FILE w/ EIC.

I’m TRYING – only trying to give people hope. I’m looking for others who have gotten a refund in my situation. I remember last year I saw a woman on one of these forums and she claimed she filed EIC AND CTC and got her refund the end of January. MOST people were very mean, calling her names but I understand now – that it IS possible.

[lance]

if they didnt have to hold the ctc they wouldnt say so on their website

[JanewayInTx]

To maybe Clear up some confusion. The credits have 2 parts to them. One portion sinply reduces the amount you owe. If you are obly receiving that portion of it then they can release it. The other portion of the credit for people that meet the income levels is a refundable credit that actually adds to your refund whereas normally your refund is obly the excess you paid in suring the year. For example the ctc reduces the amount you owe. If you qualify you actually get the actc which means in addition you also get 1000dollars per child added to you normal refund amount. If you are recieving only the first part of the credit they do not have to hold it till mid feb. If you are reciving the second part of the credit they have to hold it. Hope that helps some :)

[Me]

@nessa my sbtpg just updated to recieved funds, assuming it will be in bank soon

[lance]

I call bullshit, the IRS has a law it must follow for etc nd actc. If they issued before the 15th why would they have the law they must follow posted on their website lmao

[Clubbin’ Gnomes]

@Reality I apologize that you felt an assessment of our intelligence level was requested by you – but this is a forum for those sharing their updates/experiences with filing their taxes (just in case you weren’t aware). Although your comment entertaining (and oh so appreciated), you simply just showed people your own true intelligence level.

For everyone else providing productive information…thank you! I know I like to read and learn about what has changed, processes, products, etc. In fact, I’ve learned a ton from these contributors!

Those like @Reality plant themselves among us because he/they think they are superior – when in fact, they stick out as inferior…because they offer no constructive information. But – they are good for a giggle (in fact myself and my 5 co-workers had a good chuckle at you @Reality – so I suppose I will thank you for that!

[WillBeas]

You don’t have to be disrespectful bro, a lot of folks here is there first time filing so they still wanna have hope.. You could just inform them of the facts without name calling…you are correct though but here don’t waste your time because everyone has their own beliefs..just offer insight…., I hope we are all adults here!!

[Curshelle]

😒😒😒😒I filed and it was accepted im still on one bar 😢😢😢😢😢 I have EIC and 1099

[Reality]

You all are a bunch of idiots.. EIC tax filers will not get anything before 2/15 and from what the IRS is saying 02/27 but keep saying otherwise I just come for the jokes

[WillBeas]

Yea buddy you slipped thru….congrats!! Pathact is for EIC and Actc…doesnt matter which one, if you got it, there’s a mandate to hold…kudos to you!!

[Elle]

@Clubbin’ Gnomes it’s ok lol It’s on your return transcript if you view them online. But believe me it’s alright just figured I’d ask. Thanks for responding back :)

[Clubbin’ Gnomes]

@Elle
This may be a dumb answer/response but I’ve never in ALL the years I’ve filed ordered transcripts or looked for the cycle #. So…I’m happy to tell you if you can tell me where to find it #rollingmyeyesatmyself

[Sarah]

The problem isn’t really the EITC, it’s the ACTC. I don’t expect my refund until late february just like last year.

Just for giggles,
Filed 01/18/2018 (My own tax software, I’m a tax preparer)
Accepted 01/19/2018
Checked WMR 01/29/2018 tax return rcvd, one bar
Checked WMR 01/30/2018 PATH act message

I have 4 kids only made 31k, getting 11k back. I want it quickly but I know my refund came the day before my DDD in 2017 but not by much, I had 2/22. It came 2/21 at 11pm.

It’s honestly a waste of time and stress to believe it will come any sooner. It’s possible but unlikely.

[Elle]

@Clubbin’ Gnomes if don’t me asking what was your cycle number on your transcript? Mines is 20180404 and my processing date from the IRS & also from TT (their projected DDD) is for 2/12/2018. Just curious. Thanks

[Elle]

Congratulations Clubbin Gnomes!!! That is wonderful enjoy and treat yourself! :)

[Clubbin’ Gnomes]

Also, for the heck of it, I checked the WMR and I’m still sitting at 2 bars. My TT profile shows a projected DDD of 02/09/2018…??? My WMR DDD was for 01/31???

I was reading @LadyBug’s post and she may have answered my question. I didn’t file BOTH, ONLY EITC…….so perhaps there was less verifying (versus last year) and that’s why I got mine already….

I just want to give hope!!!

[Clubbin’ Gnomes]

I got my refund last night…I filed EITC (or I thought I did)…it was a total SHOCK!

I filed TT on 01/18/2018
Accepted (got one bar out the gate on WMR) on 01/18
Approved on WMR on 01/22
Funds dropped 01/30 @ 6:30 p.m. (PST)

There is hope! I did pay for fees up front so there was no intermediary — but this is WAY different than last year:

In 2017, I filed w/ TT on 01/12/18
I can’t recall the exact timeline but did not get my refund until 02/22

If y’all have questions – ask away. I’m just as perplexed!

[nessa79]

@Me Did you get your refund in you account today?

[bob]

i had a ddd of 1/31, not showing in my bank account though and when i checked wheres my refund its not marked as sent.

[Lori]

Did anyone with a DDD of 1/31 with the credits get their refund today

[Marie wallace]

Keep us posted if you get your dd 1/31

[dysphunktion]

Ladybug: How I wish that were the case! But alas, I believe you are mistaken.
It’s either or, not and, sadly.

[Leah]

@Lady Bug

Sadly, I don’t believe that’s true. The PATH message says eic OR actc not and.

[Lady Bug]

Just to be clear, ONLY those that claim the EIC and ACTC will be affected by the PATH Act. The ones that claim the EIC “or” CTC will not be affected by the PATH Act. ACTC is not the same as CTC. So, some people that have claimed” EITHER” EIC(only) “OR” CTC may have gotten direct deposit dates!

[nessa79]

It is my personal opinion **NOT A FACT** That the people filing EIC/CTC whom got a DDD on WMR that is before 2/15 may not actually get the deposit to their account as stated due to an error or glitch on the WMR page. I have a feeling that these people will get the “BIG UPDATE” tonight in which their bars will be gone and the PATH message will be there instead. Not trying to jinks anyone but I think you EIC/CTC (PATHers) should prepare for the worse. And if I am wrong than you were right & I was wrong and happy spending. But you PATHers with 1/31 DDD better let us know how it turns out. GOOD LUCK EVERYONE :)

[sunglaze]

Some of us will receive an update tonight on WMR. Tonight is one of the nights that they do a major update .

[sunglaze]

Major updates with Direct Deposit Date to the WMR portal for Daily Accounts on Wednesday Mornings updating to Friday Direct Deposit Dates. Weekly accounts update on Saturday mornings with Wednesday Direct Deposit Dates.

[Oliviat]

Yeah my bars dissapeared yesterday and i have path act. i guess i have to wait with the rest of everyone else lol

[WillBeas]

Because they do every year , I mean I always listen. But its the law and its not gonna happen. Its that simple. Trolls with nothing else to do.. AGAIN, people please stop spreading false hope and let’s have a good conversation and wait it out.

[Travis]

@willBeas
I’ve seen a few who claimed eic, and ctc getting refunds already in their accounts! Maybe just pot stuttering trolls, but I’ve seen the claims that it’s happening.

[Jay Green]

@WillBeas In past years we never had dozens of people lying about getting approved just to screw with people. Especially with people reporting for the same couple dates not just random crap and a percentage of them saying “I’m not getting my hopes up” etc. it’s not a conspiracy. This is the first year ANYONE in test batch has been approved early, so it’s unprecedented and you don’t know what to expect any more than the rest of us.

[Krystal]

Nevermind. I was looking at the wrong transcript. This year’s says 2/12/18. Last year’s said 2/20/17 and I got mine on 2/22/17.

[Krystal]

I’m confused. There are posts below that say that their transcripts show a DDD of such and such. The only date I see on my transcript is my cycle date. Where are you guys seeing DDD on your transcripts?

[WillBeas]

Last year it was for both…I will see…well congrats man..u made it through

[Me]

Eic i think only ppl with actc are gonna be affected. My path went away friday when i got 2 bars

[WillBeas]

I’ll take your word…so u have EIC or actc?

[Me]

You tell me what u think since im such a liar

[Me]

@willbeas look on fb under 1/31 ddd for dan jensen ull see my screen shot

[Brooklyn]

I never updated to path last year (have sc) but I didn’t receive my money until feb 23(had to verify)

[WillBeas]

We all need to 🙏 they don’t shut the gov down or we all will be up 💩 creek..haha..it will only be a small group of employees working..

[WillBeas]

N for that reason is why I chose those words, because he thinks the more he states the same lie makes it the truth!!

[Me]

Sorry u dont believe me pal. Im telling u the truth i wouldnt lie about ppls money

[Me]

Dont have fb

[WillBeas]

Doesn’t provide me anything at all. I’m patiently waiting and stopping the lies in the process…but watch there will not be a post from him on FB…haha..I’m not thirsty shorty ..I work everyday…just got 3 kids so I get a little something back…I like this forum and I’m not gonna allow y’all to spread false hope..plain n simple…call it what u want… And I will keep speaking up..

[Aksha]

@WillBeas

lol.. Yall funny, let me know by him posting what extra money does that give you… oh I thought so

[WillBeas]

Yup….o BTW on igmr fb page u can post screenshots…I will see you there

[Me]

If there was a way to post a screen shot of my wmr page i would. All u haters will see tomorrow when i get my money with eic

[Candy]

Well the irs never have a exact date just mid Feb so what is mid Feb huh Feb has 28 days so mid would be around the 14th but if counting business days it’s only 20 of those split those days still 14th so I’ll look to the 14th but not surprised if the eic slipped threw especially if they had it last year. Mid can mean anything it’s law so look it up I guess. Either way who cares let them be great

[Shelli]

Sometimes people get lucky and get picked for “test batches” from what I have heard. So it’s not unlikely to see pathers getting refunds before the “LAW” allows. .
We are talking about the gov here. They can do whatever they want. And believe me, every single tax season is full of surprises.

[WillBeas]

I don’t arfue, I only speak fact. Will speak up anytime there is a lie. This site is for great informational purposes not to sell dreams..people need their money that’s the point of them seeking answes here. But it seems the new admim team doesn’t want the truth either because most of my statements are not posting. Maybe spreading lies bring more people to forum on hopes of getting their refund early. But I’m confused why they keep deleting my comments.. I’ll just find forum that doesn’t allow lies to be spread

[Aksha]

Yall stop with the arguing its not worth it. However, some folks have and will get their return early as tomorrow and some received on yesterday. Even state taxes have been processed, approved and issued the same day and I received that in 3 days. Law or no Law there was a test batch ran and people do have DDD’s for 1/31… get over it. Why come to argue if you don’t want the information/updates when folks offer it then don’t chime in on the website just sit back and wait for your DD to hit the bank.

[WillBeas]

The law plain and simple…but y’all can believe the dream….

[sunglaze]

@Leah Why would anyone have a reason to come on this forum and Lie?

[Leah]

No one claiming those credits is getting a refund earlier. People who are saying that they are getting refunds are either mistaken or lying.

It’s a LAW.

[Me]

@willbeas and @andrewt just so u both know
Accepted 1/23 tt with eic
As of friday i have 2 bars and a ddd of tomorrow 1/31. So dont go telling everyone that they arent getting till mid feb. This year seems to be moving different than last year.

[Wela]

Some folks are confusing EIC with CTC.

[sunglaze]

@willbeas believe what u want to believe because I know someone personally that filed both credits and got their refund 1/29

[WillBeas]

@AndrewT I know it. I’ve just learned over the years to not debate. Last year it got crazy, haha…it’s the law.. No one is special and getting their refund released before Mid Feb

[AndrewT]

No one with EIC or ACTC is getting a refund before the 15th no matter what certain people on here say. Stop getting people’s hopes up.

[sunglaze]

@WillBeas some people have already received their deposits today that have EIC and some have a DDD for 1/31 that have EIC and ACTC.

[WillBeas]

The path message, is information about the law that’s gonna hold your refund till mid February if u have EIC n actc

[WillBeas]

Yea they will process your refund and all would be complete except the issuance of the refund over to the treasury dept…no one will be getting a refund before mid February with the EIC or that other credit, its the law.. We all thought that last year and its not gonna happen. I was accepted in January and due to EIC my money hit my bank Feb 23.last year

[VP]

Path message on 1/27 bars not showing. What does the path message mean? Filed 1/17 accepted 1/18.

[Lori]

[Jerrica]
