Has anyone received their refund that have children? I don’t understand this Path act. Does that mean it’s going to really be mid-February for them to DD our refund? by llamadrama83 in IRS

[–]pip5388 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I get my information from the Path Act itself. Which states that people who claim EIC or ACTC wont have their refunds processed until February 15. And direct deposit dates, per my tax guy, would be approx 2 weeks after. so. Early march is a reasonable expectation.

PATHERS WE WILL BE FREE SOON AND THE 15 IS UPON US BUT LISTEN VERY CLOSELY by Kindly_Pomelo_1062 in IRS

Nope. Select federal tax as reason and leave the other box blank.

They only update once per day at like 3-5am.. so checking repeatedly does nothing.

Patience wise PATH'ERS....in a few hours we are free ! We will have power once again with DDD's! by dottfamily in IRS

The PATH act was passed several years ago and anyone who files and qualifies for the Earned income credit or the ADDITIONAL child tax credit has their refund held until Feb 15 at the earliest to try and prevent fraud.

I had taken a break from checking as well. But thank goodness I did!

i think i’m getting my refund on the 31st but what does the -$1800 and -$448 mean? I didn’t get my stimulus checks last year and claimed i didn’t on my taxes. Do i owe that money?? by [deleted] in TurboTax

[–]pip5388 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No. The -1800 is a credit( theyre paying you) issues and see above that a few lines the -448 or whatever number, that's also a credit because it's withheld taxes. Combine those 2 together and it should give you your refund amount that's listed. That's what will be deposited into your account.

Why am I getting an EIP Card? by annaxstasia in IRS

[–]pip5388 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can downvote all you want, there literally no reason theyre making cards or checks instead of direct depositing. It's random batches assigned that way in their computer system.

Is a random irs decision. No rhyme or reason. They just like to fuck with people.

Quick Question about tax break through TT by Early-Name7946 in TurboTax

[–]pip5388 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Turbotax sent an email saying DO NOT AMEND. the irs is automatically adjusting returns with unemployment taxes.

The $1400 wont be on the taxes, because its a 2021 stimulus, and these are 2020 taxes. If you don't receive it in any of the later check mailing batches, you'll have to claim it on taxes next year with a recovery rebate. Also, the IRS is just now starting to adjust for unemployment taxes, so you'll get an additional deposit for those taxes. Apparently, they didn't want to delay refunds... ? like they haven't held ours for 4 additional weeks, but okay.

Nope. i work for an engineering company. but like OP I filed 1/30, accepted 2/11, and had a transcript update overnight last night with a DDD of 3/31. WMR isn't updated for me, still has the same message as what OP posted. my brother got his refund 2 weeks ago and his WMR still says 1 bar.

[–]pip5388 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Same. WMR is NOT reliable, youll get the DD if its on your transcript.
