      I’ve been a member of the unfortunate ’05 cycle for as long as I can remember—probably over a decade. Cycle 0505, to be precise, is this year’s cycle. Today I woke to NO 846, while the other 05 peeps updated. I’m happy for those of you who updated, but I want out of this cycle 05 loop of misfortune. I wonder if (once I receive my refund, of course), I just called the IRS and was super sweet if they would remove me from the 05 unpleasantness; however, an agent may not even possess this ability. Some say it’s just ” the luck of the draw,” but I swear I’ve been an ’05 for decades and have never had any fraud issues, audits, etc. How does one “make it to the other side”? Perhaps it’s truly all automated, but some of us slumming in the 05s for decades might suggest otherwise.

      Sigh. I’ll likely not call or inquire in the slightest. Fellow 05ers, hang in there! Our transcripts will eventually be updated, and our deposits will post! :D

          Any Santa Barbara that says unfunded. Someone said that SB processed funds today but it was some sort of delay so keep checking I hope it’s true

                          My wmr hasn’t even updated yet. Bummer. How long did it take for wmr to update after you got the 846? Is your transcript DDD date 3/9 as well?

                            We may get it early but I don’t want to get anyone hopes up knowing that it will on that wmr day. So even though you updated to the 846 I think this year you need that wmr day to determine. And I’m seeing this only with people going through Santa Barbara. It’s people that have money and a lot of us are waiting until Monday. Lots of people have called Santa Barbara and this is what was reported. But I hope we get it early especially during the weekend

                              TT is under delivering on the five day thing this year. I have a wmr of 02-24. Usually I have money the same day that updates. This year I’ve been told we may get the money on that wmr day if you are going through Santa Barbara. Others already have their money with other banks

                                The error message went away and when I was able to view my transcript there it was! The coveted 846 code!! Now the waiting game for the DD. I did 5 days early with TT and I used my chime account. I checked Santa Barbara because the only fees taken out this year were for the 5 day early thing, but they don’t have my account info yet. Does anyone know when money actually hits accounts after receiving the DDD date?
                                Thanks!!

                                          My cycle code is 0405. Been an 05 for over a decade now. WMR still only at one bar but amount transcript has 846 code for 3/9. WMR has been slow to update these last 2-3 years.

                                            OF COURSE!!!
                                            I checked stupid wmr and nothing. Then I checked my stupid transcripts and it is telling me “An error has occured loading my 2025 transcript”. That’s a new one for me and I couldn’t be happier!! 👎
                                            Why are there 05 Pathers that filed after me already getting their money? That’s just rude! Why does the IRS have to be so mean? What did I ever do to them??
                                            Haha

                                                I filed with TT on 1/19 and was accepted the same day. I opted for the 5 days early. Cycle 0505 and I’m a pather. I’ve had my transcripts for a while now but no 846 yet. I’m in Seattle and it’s only 9:15 here but it is midnight:15 EST and maybe just maybe it has updated. Going to check now. I really need some good news…

                                                    Samesis. Last year I did get my refund on Thurs the 20th. But I don’t remember if I had updated to a 846 I don’t think I had but that may just be wishful thinking. I don’t think I did update til Fri morning though cause it does seem like I’m always having to wait til Fri for my updates. Year after year
