Transcripts populated, but just zeroes. Filed 1/20, accepted 1/21. As of date 2/16. PATH day falls on a weekend and with the following Monday being a holiday, my next update should be 2/16 with a DDD of 2/21 which will most likely mean an actual deposit on 2/16. My deposit dates are usually Wed/Thur. My last refund was in 2024 (I owed in 2025) and my DDD was 2/22/24 and I received my deposit on Friday, 2/16/24 around 1pm EST in my Chime acct.
@Mari228 I’m in the same boat here. I thought if we didn’t have fees through TT that it would skip TT and go directly to whichever account we put on the return. I’m so confused to see this $40. I’m actually hoping it skips SBTPG and goes directly to my Credit Karma because I have no fees to pay TT. If it takes that $40 I’m gonna be livid.
Same for me. I updated through Get My Payment around 6am Wednesday. Never locked out. Just says when they have a payment date they’ll put it on that page.
@Jerrica: You have EITC or ACTC and you have a DDD for 1/31? That’s awesome! Wish I’d slipped through like that! Congrats! I updated to the PATH message this morning so I feel confident I’ll be in the first batch up deposits for PATH. I expect that to be Wednesday, February 21st since I’m a weekly and update on Friday nights. Dailies I expect could see deposits as early as the 15th or 16th, but I’m banking on the 19th. So it’s not two far off. Better than getting it in March last year!
@PhickDiva No worries. Sometimes things can come out differently or be interpreted wrong when it comes to text lol. It’s just unheard of now to get an early deposit with EITC or ACTC. In fact, last year was the first year I filed EITC or ACTC as I married a man with kids. In 2015, I’m not really expecting any activity on mine until at least the 15th. I have two kids, although only claim one each year, but I have EITC and ACTC. That’s why I was so surprised to find out I could order transcripts and using my new address. That’s the only way I know there’s anything going on. Any updated to WMR would surprise me and an approval with a DDD would blow me out of the water. I’m hoping that things go smoothly this year with people getting updates so soon.
As far as mistakes and having to pay money back, I would think it would be on the government, but you know how they are at admitting they made a mistake. They’ll do everything they can to pin it on you before they man up and admit it.
@PhickDiva No need to yell, I was just stating what the law was. Definitely lucky, that’s for sure. I had to wait all the way until March last year. Whatever the case they are moving pretty quickly from what I can tell this year. I was accepted on Monday and my address has already been updated. I’m a weekly so my transcripts don’t usually update until Friday and then I usually get a change on WMR Saturday morning. The prospect of another government shutdown may be putting pressure on the IRS to get things done quickly this year.
@emphnk: The refund code is 846 and is usually the last code on the transcript. It’s usually not there until the day before your WMR gives you a DDD.
@PhickDiva: You got your money on 2/3/17 last year with having EITC?? No one with EITC / ACTC got their money before the 15th last year due to the PATH act. Anyone with EITC/ACTC this year won’t get it before 15th. IRS says the 27th will be the first but I believe the 21st will be the first deposit date for us PATH filers.
@Jerrica: I’ve never actually received blank transcripts. If they’ve done anything with your return at all the information will be there. The transcripts are really good for knowing what codes you have and your cycle. Most of us should have a freeze code and then an 846 code when the refund is released. I still can’t access mine online yet. I’ve been trying for the last couple of years.
@Rellyohboy: Right! I’m grabbing the movies and putting them on standby for when this show gets boring lol!!!
@Jerrica: I agree 100%. This path stuff is for the 🦅! I’m seeing more movement this time, though. I moved his past year and just for the heck of it tried to get my transcripts mailed to me this morning. When I put in my old address it told me the info didn’t match, but when I put in my new address it let me order my return transcript. Now that I think of it, usually when there’s no transcript the system will tell me there isn’t one and ask me to choose another year or type of transcript. Hmmm…
A lot of people don’t. I’m not trying to rain on anybody’s parade, just don’t want anybody being misled by that date and then getting upset when it’s not here by that date. Technically us pathers have 21 days after February 15th before we can say anything lol
@Tara Kline: You were accepted on the 20th then, right?
@Jerrica: I have the 2/12 date too. Doesn’t mean we are in the test batch. That’s the 21 day estimate that TurboTax makes. 2/12 is 21 days after 1/22.
They’re doing something. I moved this past year so the last address the IRS had was my old one that I filed with yesterday. I ordered my transcript this morning and it said the information didn’t match when I put in the old address, but when I put in the new address it went through as normal. I really believe if I hadn’t had an offset last year I would have been in the first batch of pathers. Maybe I will be this year!
Last year I filed January 6, accepted January 12, but I didn’t see my refund until March 7th. That was because of the Feb 15 required waiting plus I had an offset that they took forever to take. No offset this year so hopefully I’ll be with one of the first batches of Path filers to get theirs. I’m hoping the middle of February, but will probably be closer to the end. I just hope not to see March again with no refund! MizuSeirei I can see the reasoning behind your thinking. But if you wait until the 14th to file you’ll be definitely behind. Our refunds aren’t held for processesing, at least from what I experienced last year. My refund was actually processed before the 15th, but held up because of that plus my offset made it even longer. I always file as soon as I can each year. Gets it out of the way so I don’t have to worry about it. I’ll get engrossed in this semester as I’m doing my master’s project and may even forget about it until I receive it!
Just got notice my return was accepted! Now we just have to wait.
Mine hasn’t been accepted as of yet. Probably a lot of people submitted over the weekend.
Update: I was finally able to file, just had to go through deleting the 8863 form so it would refresh to the one that was available. Submitted tonight. I didn’t think returns were accepted until the season officially opened, which would be the 29th. Am I incorrect on that?
Haven’t been able to file yet as I also have education credits and the forms aren’t available to file yet. Everything is ready to go though, I’ve even paid my filing fee already. Not really in a rush as it’s just going to be used to move in August. Last year I had an offset as it was the first year my husband and I filed together so it took forever for them to release it. Finally got it around the third week of February. No offset this year so hopefully it won’t be too long after the holds are released.
I will comment here because I have received mine and I had a Wednesday DDD (3/8) and I used TurboTax and had fees come from my refund. SBBT received my refund very early Tuesday morning, took their fees and sent to to my bank, all around 5:30-6am; from there it is up to your bank as to when they post it; I used RushCard and mine posted around 5:30 that evening. I hope this helps!
@Ryan: That means the IRS sent your money directly to your bank account and it all depends on your bank as to when they release it
@Ryan: Did you have your filing fees taken from your refund? If not you won’t be using SBTPG. Also you have to use the primary taxpayers information as well as the amount you’re getting from the IRS, not the amount after they take out their fees
Praise Jesus it came through!!!! Got my money!
Omg! So after checking SBBT,I realized I put the direct deposit for my husband’s prepaid card, not mine. His name is on the tax return of course but he is the secondary taxpayer. Is my refund going to be sent back????
@Waiting on the $$: I didn’t say she shouldn’t ask it here, but more people view the regular page and someone who has already received their refund this year who used SBBT might be able to offer insight. Also, we haven’t received ours this year and it’s obvious this year is different than any other
Erin, that might be a better question to ask on the main IGMR page
Once SBTPG sends it to your bank it all depends on your bank. My paycheck is usually sent on Tuesday and I have it by Wednesday night, so it will probably be tomorrow night for me , which sucks. But, my school refund at sent on Tuesday and I usually have it that same afternoon. Like I said, it all depends on your bank
Good Morning guys! SBBT just updated with my refund, showing how much they received, how much they took out and how much they paid to me! Hang in there it’s coming!!
I’m waiting too, nothing yet
Next big update will be Friday night, should see any changes (if you’re going to get them) Saturday morning
I’m in the same boat…filed on 1/6, accepted 1/2, updated to Path message then on the 15th updated to “We have received your return and it is processing.” I called last Saturday and was told there is a freeze on my account for a tax debt my husband owes. I knew about the debt so I was expecting it. I’m just wondering what is taking so long because other people have gotten their refunds and they’ve had more than what I owe taken out. I’m calling today…this is ridiculous.
If the offset line doesn’t to you anything then you owe a tax debt. The offset line is only going to tell you about non-tax debts
Anything could cause this. A calculation error, tax debt owed to IRS. Those debts aren’t listed on the offset line because the offset line is for non-tax debts only
I also noticed the IRS is holding some for tax debts…thats what mine is for. She told me 3 weeks from Feb 1…should be the end of this week
I filed 1/6, accepted 1/12, path msg on 2/4. Called on 2/18, was told it’s being held because of my husband’s tax debt from last year and to give them 3 weeks from Feb 1st. Hopefully I’ll see something in the coming week.
There will be live people available on Monday…I talked to one today actually. They’re opening because it’s the busy season.
@rytrblk The offset line only shows non tax debts. If you happen to owe to the IRS it won’t show up there. I’m speaking with someone now about my return. I would definitely call if I were you.
I didn’t update either…filed on 1/6, accepted on 1/12, path message and then “your return is being processed” Got a copy of my transcripts faxed yesterday, no bad codes, cycle is 0505. Definitely calling them today
I would pose this question: what benefit would come from fhe IRS just sitting on our returns and not processing until now? The better benefit comes from them already being processed. This way if someone else files the same kid, it can automatically flag both returns rather than just rejecting the second and they have to file a paper return. The IRS can then review both and determine who gets the money rather than sending out money and having to get money back if it turns out that person shouldn’t have gotten the money. That’s what it’s all about anyway, the money. The IRS is looking for fraudsters who file for others and shouldn’t or who claim kids they’re not really taking care of. All of my information was updated and my transcript fully filled out. I honestly do not believe anyone who says that everyone’s returns haven’t been processed. Yes, it’s possible some have not been. There are millions of EIC and ACTC filers. They haven’t gotten to them all yet. And I follow what I know to be true, coming from years of experience and things happening the same way. If you move and your new address is in their system, unless you updated it with them, they’ve processed your return. That’s never changed since I started filing taxes. And transcripts can indicate whether your return is finished processing or not.
They just fed you complete bs…they processed them otherwise addresses and personal info wouldn’t be updated…transcripts wouldn’t be available at all…I don’t believe anything the IRS says now until I have my money
We may have to get another car due to changes in our schedules at work. Catching up on some bills, new clothes and shoes for us and the kids. Also splurging on the Nintendo Switch. The rest will go into savings. I got a big refund from school as well so we’re taking our honeymoon in October to Cancun for our 1st anniversary so we have to get passports too.
I was able to order my account transcript this morning and throughout the day using my old address. Now it says neither one matches the information on file. I’m really hoping for a DDD tonight. Last year I filed the beginning of the last week of January and had my refund that same Friday at around 3pm. Was hoping for the same thing this year but no such luck
