2020 Pathers EITC/ACTC Update here

[Kesi12]

Just FYI everyone the Patch message is the topic 152. When the bars disappear you should still see topic 152

@Jazzy89 Oh wow **bleep** so when did you file and get accepted 

[Kesi12]

On your account transcripts does it show any amounts. I dont have an a tax return transcript tet none of us should. But we should see the acct transcripts and the wage transcripts for 2019

[Jazzy89]

I filed on the 1/17 and got accepted on the 1/27 and recieved my advance on 1/27 @Shottamike23 

[Shottamike23]

@Jazzy89  Oh i see so you get a advance loan from your tax return 

[Jazzy89]

First year ever doing it! @Shottamike23

@julea2993 @Shottamike23 unless things have changed ordering your transcript means nothing. I did that in the past and they sent me papers that said there is no transcript for XXXX tax year.

@Kesi12 Topic 152 is the generic "We have your return we will process it blah blah blah" that everyone gets when they submit their tax return and it has been accepted. It does not indicate anything at all in terms of your status is relation to the Path message.

My transcripts was posted this morning what does cycle 20200605 and date of 2-24-2020 mean?

[Kesi12]

@nick112207  I was told that is the path message because you can get different messages depending on your situation. Since you saying it's not what's the path message you are referring to 

[Kesi12]

@ashley0302 mine says same date but no cycle that I see. 

[Shottamike23]

@Jazzy89  Oh i see i was going to do that but I change my mind because i want all my money at one time 

[Jazzy89]

 I understand I just need the rest of mine ugh @Shottamike23 

[Shottamike23]

@Jazzy89  Did you get your state already 

[nick112207]

@Kesi12 no 152 is just the generic message every single person gets when they check WMR after their return has been accepted. It is essentially just them saying we have your return and it is being processed.

Once they have actually done something and they see you fall under the PATH Act then it updates to a completely different message explaining the PATH act and how your refund won't begin being processed for deposit until after February 15

Tax Topic 152 is not the PATH message. 152 is the initial Tax code you receive once your return is submitted to the IRS indicating that they have your return for the year. It made it. It does not mean you are ACCEPTED OR APPROVED. The PATH Act message usually updates a few days later if not by the 15th. Meaning you will have 1 bar and a Recieved message on WMR until PATH message. Once it changes to PATH Act it will read " According to The Proctecting Americans from Tax Hikes (PATH) Act, the IRS cannot issue refunds before mid-February for tax returns that claim Earned Income Credit or the Additional Child Tax Credit. This applies to the entire refund even the portion not associated with these credits". That is the PATH message you SHOULD see by the 15th or after. Just depends I guess if you update Weekly or Daily. I filed 1/29 and still have the same Tax Topic 152 with 1 bar and a Recieved on WMR. Still no update. I'm hoping tomorrow 2/8 it will finally update to PATH message. Hope this helps.
