Irs accepted my return early

In theory:
 IF you are accepted early (before opening day) You CAN Possibly have your money by Opening day.
 For the last 5 years I have been accepted early. Last year being the exception ( took 23 days ).
You are supposed to start Counting your days from DATE of acceptance it should not take any loner than 8-11 days .. BUT Remember this is the IRS we are talking about .
 I do believe they are Updating this morning. Mine is NOT showing up but It did yesterday.
No information will show if it is updating.
(usually between 4am-8am  is when they update) its 7:25 east coast time.
They claim they update daily Last year I found it only to be TWICE a week . (Tuesday and Thursday)  
Early acceptances are usually 10 days prior to opening day.
For those with EITC you may or may not seen any movement until after 2/15?
No way of knowing if they are taking them early.     

Transcripts Theory :
If you can order your transcripts then your return has been completed and about to be paid out.
Your transcripts CAN NOT be ready IF your return has NOT Completed the cycle.
Hope that helps all

I logged in to IRS to track refund today, before it said no information can be provided. They obviously updated and now it says refund is being processed, but TT says I should receive my refund between 1/24-2/13, anyone else have this???

Irs accepted my return early

The TT dates are somewhat misleading, as they are based on traditional  IRS turnaround times.

So do I check back on Thursday when they update again? @SweetieJean

Mine was accepted today! I was not expecting that at all, glad I found this thread. Puts me at ease

Irs accepted my return early

My taxes were accepted today and i claim children didnt expect this at all

Irs accepted my return early

Mines accepted to no child credits so I got my fingers crossed

Irs accepted my return early

Mine was excepted today but I have earned income credit so im not going to expect anything back until after feb 15th. If I get it early then that's great, but ill drive myself crazy checking for it everyday lol!!

Irs accepted my return early

I filed yesterday 1/16 and was accepted today 1/17,  I don't expect anything back until after February 15 which the IRS is saying February 28 due to child tax credit and earned income credit.

Ours was accepted today, but we also claimed the child tax credit. Somehow wouldn't be surprised if they don't hold some. No rush if it's held, but I guess we will all see soon enough.
Realistically, I don't see how this will help prevent fraud. What I mean by this is, those who file early are supposed to be delayed, but what about those who file at later dates, without delays?

Irs accepted my return early

Child tax credit and the additional child tax credit are not the same thing.
