@chelsea did your letter arrive yet?
@chelsea any updates?
@Brandon you are well past the 21 day mark so contact the IRS and have them give you the reason for the delay. if the agent you are on the phone with is giving you canned generic answers then hang up and call back and speak with another agent. some are just lazy and won’t bother to look it up or they will place you on hold and come back saying they dont know anything when in reality they didnt bother looking it up for you.
@chelsea oh perfect! once you verify, i know it says it can take up to 9 weeks but in reality, you will be processed in the next cycle. so if you get the letter tomorrow and verify right away then you might be processed for the thursday night updates. if not then for sure the monday overnight update..
my deposit came through on time this morning! first time in many years i did not have a delay in anything..
@chelsea any updates this morning?
@chelsea i have a feeling the updates that people saw today were the last ones of the week. the only thing that updates on saturday is usually WMR but you never know so i would check tomorrow. if not then hopefully you are in the batch for tuesday/wednesday or thursday/friday next week
@full72 my WMR updated overnight to approved and shows deposit for tuesday the 27th
my transcripts updated overnight as well with a DDD for 2/27
@chelsea well heres hoping you see an update overnight!
@marcamante there should be another update coming overnight tonight or overnight tomorrow so either tomorrow or saturday you may see an update. some are dailies and some are weeklies and if you did not update overnight last night, i am leaning you might be a weekly so you should see something with the update either tonight or tomorrow night. normally it would be tonight but with the federal holiday on monday, everything got delayed a day.
@chelsea anytime! also, the letter will say it takes up to 9 weeks after you verify for your return to be approved but in reality it is usually the next cycle of processing that your refund gets pushed through. i had to do it a few years ago and after i went through the process, she gave me the spiel of 9 weeks but she said it doesnt take that long and sure enough a few days later my refund was approved
@chelsea ahh darn i was pulling for you to be updated this morning! hopefully you will get updated in the next batch which should be overnight tonight. however, if you have a verification letter on the way, you might not see anything until you do what the letter says. also, the agents sometimes really do not see the letters in your account that are being mailed out. if you log in your account and look under notices, its usually blank and that is exactly what the agents usually see
@full72 no my WMR still says the standard processing message and 152 is still there. it never went from processing to still processing. it should update overnight and tomorrow will show approved.
mine updated as well with DDD of 2/27
@chelsea mine updated overnight and i now have 846 with a DDD of 2/27. i hope yours updated as well
the IRS systems are still getting through the initial batches of returns filed before the PATH Act lifted so since you filed the day it was lifted, that is a little tricky but i am going to guess that you are in the batch that will be the first to be processed after those who filed before the PATH Act lifted.
@chelsea the federal holiday on monday pushed everything back by a day. monday’s business was done yesterday so today is technically tuesday so we should hopefully see updates tomorrow morning.

not everyone who filed and is on PATH updated on the 16th. this is normal every year when PATH lifts. the returns are processed in batches that are randomly pulled from the collection bin where all PATH returns sit. when the hold lifts, their computer systems randomly select returns to process. they are not done in the order received. this is why some who filed early are still on N/A while those who filed later have a DDD. it takes a few updates to get through all of them.
@Queen since you filed on the 2nd, your 21 days will be up this coming friday so you can contact the IRS on monday to ask questions if you do not get any updates this week. at that point by law they have to tell you what the hold up on your return is and what to do to correct it.
@Queen a lot of people seemed to have had that update on WMR which just sounds like the system reflecting the time period from when you filed. i would not look too much in to it because there will be two big updates this week. overnight tuesday and overnight thursday so most likely either wed or fri you will see your transcripts and more accurate info.
@Queen see my previous replies below and it will explain why that is
@Confused nothing will update tomorrow due to the federal holiday. the next update will be tuesday overnight in to wednesday
(cont.) i filed mine this past tuesday the 13th and mine did not update. my friend filed his the next day on the 14th and his updated when the holds lifted. the systems can only process so many returns in a day so if yours was not updated on friday, it will most likely be updated either overnight tues into wed or thurs overnight into friday. i hope this helps you better understand the process. it stinks but unfortunately that is how its done.
(cont.) its as if the bin was handed over to someone and they just reached in and grabbed a stack of them at once all with different dates they were filed. the systems do not process in the order filed and received. this is why some people who filed right as tax season opened got theirs processed and others did not and why those who filed later dates did.
so to give you all a clearer understanding of what happens when the PATH Act lifts, this is how it goes down. when you file a return that involves the PATH Act, your return is put in to a batch with all of the other PATH returns. think of your return as a file folder that is thrown in to a huge bin with all the other ones. this past Thursday when the hold lifted, the IRS systems started randomly processing returns.
@GoFigure: what dept do you work in?
yeh its very hit n miss this season.. alot of people who post here got hit with the same “still processing” delay as we have. received 4464C letters as well. nothing changed in my return from last year to this year so the one agent i spoke to was stumped as to why its bein held up.. did your friend have EITC or ACTC?
i have never had that happen before and the one agent i spoke with last week also never heard of 4464C letters going out so quickly. one agent tells me its the 60 day wait. another has told me it is a 120 day wait. they have no clue what is going on this season.
last year i was accepted on 3/4 and had my refund on 3/11. they are very far behind and when i spoke to someone yesterday, she told me it is because of covid. i received a 4464C letter a week before my 21 initial days passed from filing. i filed on 2/16 this year and am still waiting.
it seems as if a lot of people are getting this hold this season. my WMR says the same thing. my transcripts did update but i have that dreaded 570 code and a date of 3-27-2023 next to it. call them on friday since it will be your 21st day and see if they can give you any info.. most likely they will say your account is on hold to verify the accuracy of your refund and depending on who you get, they will either tell you to wait 60 days or 120 days. i have been told both.
every time i call, i am told different things every time. one agent says they are doing a review and to wait 60 days but it should be less than that. another agent said she has no information. i just spoke with one a few minutes ago asking if there is a hold and she told me it is now at 120 days and it is because of COVID. i have the same 570 code as everyone else. i got the 4464C letter like everyone else. my 570 has a date of 3-27-2023 next to it.
my transcripts updated overnight with cycle code 20231003 with a processing date of 3/27/2023. i filed on 2/16 but i also now have that dreaded 570 code. i am waiting until tomorrow to call them for an update since tomorrow will be 21 days since i filed so hopefully they will tell me what the hold is.
