Like I said, I’m speculating this could be a situation for weeklies, but who knows. It does appear many 20190705 got updated to 846 02/27/19 last year on 02/22/19, as did most 20190605. Couldn’t really speculate on a cycle I’ve never been in before. Oddly enough this was 10 days before they were scheduled to be processed. So, yes, theoretically some people with later cycles might see a 02/26 DDD

I hate to be the bearer of bad news, but I don’t think any (and this might only apply to weekly) PATHers with cycle 20200605 will see a refund in February.

I have reviewed my last three tax transcripts, and the following information has always been true:

The processing date is always a Monday
The refund (846) date is always the following Thursday

I use Bluebird, so such refunds I have usually gotten the Sunday evening prior to that Thursday. So, I am now expecting my refund the evening of 03/01/2020. That being said:

20200605 has processing date 02/24/2020 (that is a Monday)
The following Thursday is 03/05/2020. That is what I expect to be the 846 (DDD) date.

I have had better cycles before under PATH. As a matter of fact, I’ve had two processing dates prior to 02/15. I don’t know what has changed and why they keep processing them later and later.

Here is my full data, in my case:

2019:
Cycle 20200605
Processing Date 02-24-2020
Actual DD ? Possible 03-01-2020
Expected 846 03-05-2020

2018:
Cycle 20190505
Processing Date 02-18-2019
846 02-27-2019
Actual DD 02-24-2019 (10 PM Sunday night)

2017:
Cycle 20180405
Processing Date 02-12-2018
846 02-22-2018
Actual DD 02-16-2018 (5PM Friday)

2016:
Cycle 20170405
Processing Date 02-13-2019
846 02-23-2017
Actual DD 02-20-2017 (10 PM Monday but probably would have been Sunday night if not for Presidents Day)

Okay, so as far as I have seen, the following PATH cycles have been reported:

20200405
20200505
20200605

20200405 has processing date 02/10/2020
20200505 has processing date 02/17/2020
20200605 has processing date 02/24/2020

Therefore, I expect the following:

20200405 DDD 02/20/2020 (early deposit cards will see DD’s between 02/14-02-17)
20200505 DDD 02/27/2020 (early deposit cards will see DD’s between 02/21-02/24)
20200605 DDD 03/05/2020 (early deposit cards will see DD’s between 02/28-03/02)

There is a pattern to this stuff, I promise.
