@monee Keep us updated with what you find! Let’s watch the Senate!

[Lexy]

I’m glad I’m not alone, I can’t say I’m not holding my breath unfortunately but I’m trying to keep calm lol. I’ll give it more time

[Amanda]

I have an adjustment of 2300 added to my credits in my transcripts and 3 of 4 are available online now it seems I will receive 02/19 processing date instead of 02/12 which was my as of date last week. I have codes 150 tax due , 766 the new ACTC credit I wasn’t expecting and 768 my original credit amount. My cycle is 20240503. My address updated on my transcript and it says Feb 1 2024 $0 due when i log in online. I filed TT paid fees upfront and did not apply for advance loan.

The House bill passed at around 6 pm. We need to be careful about saying the CTC passed without clarifying that it was just a bill in The House. The news doesn’t even do a good job at this. Both chambers of Congress need to pass for the changes to become law. After that the P needs to sign (I have no doubts he won’t) and then the next hurdle is IRS implementing how it will be applied.

Let’s all keep in mind, that the bill is not an increase to the CTC. It is an increase to the amount that is refundable. The calculation for multiple children is significantly changed, but not for 1 dependent. So if someone is already receiving max refundable with 1 dependent, they will see no change.

Further, once it reaches the Senate, it could be changed and marked up with more changes… before ever going to the Senate floor.

Just trying to set expectations.

Please read this article below (our link), bookmark it, and follow for updates where I will post them. I have watched the House floor live for three days… now it’s on to stalk the Senate.

front page of CNN right now.

Can someone explain what this means for the taxes we are all dealing with right now (2023 year)

[Lizd]

I’ve always been accepted right away. Nothing yet. Filed today with turbo tax. Let the frustration begin.

[Westcoastbestcoast]

@BetaTestMom well that’s good to know!

[SamfromMA]

@Jenjenn

Your amount has been in green since 1/26?

Mine had $0 in green for days until it changed to my refund amount in green, now just waiting for a date

[Westcoastbestcoast]

So apparently my state is being sent directly to my H&R block emerald card. It was issued the 29th. I have a weird situation this year where my state was accepted through H&R block and my federal accepted through JH. The rep said they usually take fees from the federal return so not sure how this is going to work out with SBTG. So I’m hoping my state gets to my emerald card today/tomorrow. I’ll update when I receive it.

[JenJen00]

My MA return has been green since 1/24. Still processing.

[Kgwinn]

I was accepted on the 18th. Transcripts updated as of today with a DD date of 2/5. Oddly enough, state refund arrived on Monday so it was super speedy.

[SamfromMA]

@MA payer

Oh wow it’s already green, and that’s what I would of done too lol

[Shelli]

@monica that is great news! Hoping that means by this time next week I’ll have my DDD

[American_ind30]

Mine is in the same boat that’s crazy I filed same time and date as you and I’m pending as well I’m just thinking it just hasn’t gone threw yet but we shall see some movements at least by Friday.

[Busterbrown]

Updates will be little after two weeks with those credits (PATH)

[Busterbrown]

Totally normal… sometimes. However, keep checking up to 72 hours. Then start wondering.

[Lexy]

I filed 1/29 at 8am EST with TT and my federal refund has still not been accepted. I’m usually accepted within minutes. There is no record of a tax return filed on the IRS side. Anyone else still waiting? I’m not sure what to do or if this is fine.

[lydia]

I figured submitting an amended return was my only option. I have never had to do this, hopefully its simple lol

[Jackie]

Filed 1/29 accepted same day. No path mine is showing the same… hoping for another update soon 😁

[Cara]

We are also claiming defendants, so maybe that’s why?

[Cara]

I guess I assumed filing early would put us right at the front of the line to be accepted, but still nothing. Anyone else?

[Adam]

same here filed on 25th and accepted same day

[Adam]

still waiting.. no updates on transcripts. hopeful that Friday or sat it will update

[Bsmith21]

Has anyone been able to file state taxes yet? I used TT for federal but still unable to file my state even though they opened on the 29th for filing.

[Bsmith21]

Your best course of action would be to file an amended return after it’s been processed. I don’t know if they can stop the process now that it’s been accepted.

[lydia]

So in December I tried to get a tax refund advance through this company online, not paying attention to the fact it said I must file with them if I complete the application. Upon completing the application it only asked for my pay stub.. So I finished and uploaded my docs. I got an email saying I could not continue without having my W2s.. I left it alone. I got my W2s on 1/19/2024 I filed with cash app.. they were rejected for already being filed !! Taxnet filed my taxes without having my W2!!!!! my refund is now $500 less than it would have been if my w2 was used instead of my last paystub…. they also charge $578 !!!! I have no idea if there is anything I can do!!!!! HELP please.

[MA payer]

[naughtyrockets]

@nikekry, I filed on the 23rd and was accepted on the 24th. Good to know. Maybe this means we’ll have a better update by EOD?

[SamfromMA]

@MA payer

That’s BS! After all the money they charge and you have to wait even longer because their system sucks

[Nitekry]

I filed 1/24 TurboTax
Accepted 1/24

Mine still shows the same as yours.

[Lioness]

Heyyyyyy my fellow Arkansans….I just filed today. I haven’t been accepted yet but I will update when I have. I notice that I am a bit more patient this season. I think it’s because I know that they always find new ways to hold on to our money longer so I’m just expecting delays. Sigh…

Sorry, I know I’m late asking by now but, because I was accepted on 1/23 and not on or after 1/29. That means I was in the test batch? Above link is a screenshpt which shows my federal was accepted on 1/23. Thanks!

[Carrie]

Filed 1/29….tt online, pather…haven’t checked anything yet. Figured I’d give it a week

[Natasha]

I was accepted 26th

[BetaTestMom]

Also a PATHer – was intending to wait to file because of the possible increase in ACTC, BUT the IRS Commissioner (Danny Werfel) told the press that taxpayers should not wait to file. “ If there’s a change that impacts your return, we will make the change, and we will send you the update – whether it’s an additional refund or otherwise without you having to take additional steps.” (citation: CNBC.com – “ Child tax credit could change…” 01/30/24)

[naughtyrockets]

So, I only have an Account transcript as of today. The Record of Account Transcript and Return Transcript are still N/A. The Account transcript is blank. What does this mean?

[Monim]

Filed/Accepted 1/29.
I’ve had a week turnaround in previous years.
Wisconsin has a new system and when I completed the form the refund they gave me was before they took out what I owe for taxes. I called DOR and the rep said to go ahead and file, they will correct it on their end. I hope that’s not code for, yours will definately take 8-12 weeks.

[JenN]

Well, a good news / bad news kind of morning . Good news – my return was accepted! Bad news – got the “further review” message :(

@BetaTestMom Thanks for the update.
I have similar update but the “As of” date is 02/12.

[Momtogirls]

Filed Fed/state 1/22 state was accepted 1/29 had a generic manual review msg, updated 1/31 to pymt will be sent in 5-7 business days

[Kristen]

Yes, its taken this long for me the past few years. Last year and the year before I received my direct deposit 5 days before my WMR even updated. My cycle code has always had an 05 the last few years as well, meaning I dont even see any kind of update until Fridays ( once a week )

[Monica]

@ Priscilla, no I don’t.

[Priscilla]

Hi Monica do you have any credits or path?

[Monica]

Checked my transcripts about 3:00 a.m., everything is filled out, I have a DD date of 2/5.

[MA payer]

H&R bug H&R say their system and MA not talking to each other until Feb 10!

Seems MA takes longer every year
Still not accepted.

Still waiting

I filed Wednesday 1/24/2024, still waiting to be accepted.

[BetaTestMom]

Checking the IGMR Tax Calendar, the pattern indicates that transcript updates broadly happen on Tuesdays (though not *all* happen on Tuesdays). For me, that meant that there was an N/A (no 2023 line) under “Account Transcript” Tuesday night, but Wednesday morning I have a 2023 line there now.
It’s largely blank, but I’m seeing progress. So yay!

01/31 MORNING UPDATE: Logged in this morning to check transcripts; have Account Transcript for 2023 with an “As of” date of 02/19. The rest of the document is largely blank (“RETURN NOT PRESENT FOR THIS ACCOUNT”).
WMR status currently unchanged.

[Amber]

Hey, everyone. I completed my taxes on the 16th, then on the 18th I received a text from TT saying my return was accepted in 1/18. Just a day later WMR updated and it said they received my return and it is processing. So, I’ve just been patient and assumed maybe I was accepted into the test batch, which doesn’t effect me much bc I have to wait for mid Feb regardless bc I receive both EITC and CTC, so Saturday I checked WMR and it now says something about to protect me from identity theft my return is being reviewed. So, I made a new account through ID.me on the IRS website to check if any letters have been sent and to check my transcripts. We’ll, my transcripts haven’t updated, it is saying that 2023 taxes aren’t processed yet, and no letters have been sent from the IRS. I even called the IRS and they wouldn’t pull my account up, but told me if I can’t verify my previous years returns then there is nothing for me to do but wait for it to process and they just started accepting on the 29th, so I just have to wait and ignore what WMR says. Anyone heard of this or dealt with tjis? Any help will be great!!! TIA!!!

[Denise]

Hey, people. Wanted to see if anyone got accepted opening day in IL (1/29)? I did yesterday. It takes them forever to process (there’s that security thing that was passed a while back), so it’ll take at least three/four weeks before we start seeing any movement…

[LilMissLuvly]

Goodmorning Marylanders, has anyone here or seen anything about Maryland not processing returns until Feb 5th because of a update from 1/30 to 2/5. I looked in the Comptroller site and it said that they wouldn’t have access to process refunds during the update. But I’m wondering does that mean they not doing any taxes during that time or are they just not processing the refund

[SamfromMA]

@MA payer

You sure you officially filed and sent it in because all the forms weren’t ready until 1/25. I had to log back into turbo on 1/25 and send it in

[MA payer]

Seems MA takes longer every year
Still not accepted.

Still waiting

I filed Wednesday 1/24/2024, still waiting to be accepted.

[Jennifer B]

Well, I just realized that I have the EIC/EITC credit, (no kids-just lower income this year, so the credit was applied, which I just found out after checking my return on TaxSlayer), So, I am beginning to think that I was accepted early on Jan 22nd but because of the EIC/EITC, my return was thrown back in line since that credit delays refunds until after Feb 15th. I will keep everyone posted.

[Jackie]

Filed 1/29 accepted same day no path. My return transcript updated overnight to 2023 available but says no record of return with as of 2/19 I am a daily 02 so I expect more movement tomorrow maybe😀

[Ari 2701]

CTC is not held up by the IRS. The Additional tax credit and Earned Income tax credit are held til Mid February. The information regarding CTC is on Irs website stating so and this website as well.

[Jadmamaof3]

Filed 1/15. Accepted 1/19. TT estimated refund date 2/9. No EITC just CTC. WMR is still on the first bar.

[Jadmamaof3]

I filed with TT 1/15/24 Accepted 1/19/24. TT est refund date 2/9/24. CTC but no EITC.

[its my $ and i want it now]

If you are a pather you won’t see a refund till after feb 15th

[Wingback43]

Filed 1/25 with TaxAct. Accepted 1/29. DOR received the return, which is being processed (2 bars) on Oregon WMR.

[Wingback43]

Filed 1/25 with TaxAct. No PATH. Accepted 1/29. WMR return was received and is being processed—no bars (too early for that).

[Westcoastbestcoast]

Filed with JH with fees taken out of refund. I only have 1 bar on wmf page but I called IRS today and they confirmed my refund was accepted yesterday 1/29. My state was also issued yesterday so hoping I receive that tomorrow maybe. Never used JH before so not sure how fast Republic Bank is. I also can’t check Republic Bank since it only seems to pertain to federal returns and not state. Let’s keep each other updated.

[BetaTestMom]

Can I jump in here? There isn’t a thread for filing on 1/24 and being accepted 1/25 🙏
Transcript checked today (Tuesday) and nothing of note available yet. WMR shows Tax Topic 154. No PATH on this one.

I filed/accepted in the late teens of January last year, and had my refund by the 31st. Probably a test batch fluke, but fingers crossed anyway!!!

[Justin]

From my last experience if you received the earned income tax credit or child tax credit the irs won’t approve till mid February

[Justin]

Back again! Submitted today and accepted today. Claimed EITC and CTC so we will start seeing those move towards mid February! Happy tax season!

[Kiwi]

Filed yesterday 1/29
Accepted tonight 1/30
Refund amount is in green parenthesis in mydorway

[Shelli]

I was in the test batch, accepted on 1/23. Nothing yet

[SamfromMA]

@Ida….same here, Filed 1/25 accepted 1/26 amount showing in green as of 1/29…still showing processing though, I can’t remember after it turns green how long it was until I got return

[Cinnamon]

Filled 1/28 late night, accepted 1/29, wmr updated later that same day 1 bar. PATHer.

[Monica]

So has anyone from the test batch gotten any updates? I got accepted on the 19th, so if that is right, I should be updating this weekend, with a DD of the 7th.

[Mo]

@Neek, I’m NOT a Pather. My children are grown. So, I have filed the same way and typically receive my refund by 1st or 2nd week in Feb. Oh well, no letter yet. We shall see.
