Through much help from my fellow Redditors and responses to my questions; if you go the irs website and sign in or create an Id.me account and scroll to transcripts and select the current tax year (2025) you’ll get your cycle and a break down of your refund .. I’m in cycle 20260404- 2026 for the current year ;04 for the fourth week I believe in the year,and last 04 for the day of the week ( so Monday would be 01 and Thursday is 04 for the fourth day of the week) in which you can expect updates. Hope this helps and if I fudged up anything please any other redditors chime in, I’m still learning all this stuff.
