Updating again tonight?? (Anyone have proof of this…?)

[Ann]

I’ve seen LOTS of people saying that there will be another update for those who are sitting pretty at the “your return is being processed” message between 9pm-12:00am this evening. But is there any source to confirm that- or is it all heresy?

It’s just the days it normally updates I personally just enter my information into the irstogo app and open it when everything blanks out I know something updated and check

[tracy]

Im not sure about this but I assume when it says it may occasionally be down between 1am and 7pm is probably just a maintenance thing. So if the sight needs maintenance that is when they do it and they just give it a long time frame to be down just incase. just a thought?

@Mari808 I thought the same thing at first, that I needed to check between midnight and 1:00 am but then I realized the very first line of what both people posted says it’s down from midnight-7:00 pm on Sunday (I don’t know what the last line about “occasionally” it’s down between 1:00 am and 7:00 am on Sundays means). So if you go by the first line about Sundays and then the Saturday line it gives no break at all for 22 hours…

[Mari808]

Sunday at 1am so I guess there’s an hour break. This year is really whacky, everyone’s path lifted at midnight and transcripts started changing at midnight (3am est) even though the “big update” was supposed to happen between 12:30a-3a (3:30-6est) so who knows what’s actually going to go in tonight. And remember that the times on WMR are all east coast times, so calculate that to whatever YOUR time zone is. For some reason people think it’s 3:30am their own time and it’s not unless of course you live on the east coast.

Okay, evidently I’m reading something wrong here lol. Can someone dumb it down for me please? :) If it says it’s not available from 9pm-midnight on Saturday (tonight) and not available from midnight-7pm on Sunday (tomorrow) does that mean we won’t be able to check it again after 9:00 pm tonight until 7:00 pm tomorrow night?

[Ann]

Thanks for the replies! For some reason I’ve had no luck finding that information…but it makes sense. Guess we will keep our fingers crossed for tonight!

All you have to do is Google when the wmr updates. 330am to 6am and 9pm to midnight on Saturday
