2020 Path Act: Post your updates here, please.

[King Strut]

First, Turbo tax doesn't factor in Path so that is just a generic 21 day message! Second, if you had your fees taken out of your refund go to SBTPG.com and check there periodically through the week.

Did 1/26

Accepted 1/27

Path ever since 

2/16 Path Removed 

TT says 2/17 DD

But only cuz its 21 days since I filed.

Cant access Transcripts.

Anyone who has their codes file close to me? 

OR have an idea?

Last year despite the shutdown I got it on 2/27/2019

[King Strut]

The generic 21 days doesn't count or matter if you are a path filer. It is a generic way to say those who have no EITC or ACTC credit get theirs within 21 days.

[King Strut]

Cycle codes are on your Account transcript portion of your return transcripts.

Yeah, based on last year, I'm guessing I'll get my ddd on February 26th this year.  If it shows up sooner, I won't complain. 🙂  But it'll probably be the 26th.

I can see an estimated DDD of Feb 17th  on  my phone  version but reality is that's 21 days after the day they excepted it so i ain't really going by that date i was really wondering about the Santa Barbara thing though i didn't know what that was but yes i allow TT to take it out of my refund so thank you for helping me with that info.😁

Once your return has been accepted (received) by the government, they take over the refund status update duties, since they hold the purse strings. The status in TurboTax will remain as "accepted."

Check the IRS Where's My Refund site for the latest word on your federal tax refund, and your state government's refund lookup service for your state’s status.

Does this IRS "Where's My Refund" tool say your funds have actually been sent?
http://www.irs.gov/Refunds

Were you having the refund direct deposited to your bank account directly ?

If the IRS has actually sent the funds, the IRS FAQ page says to allow "up to 5 days" due to variations in bank processing procedures and times.

If so did you enter the correct routing & account number for an ACH transfer ?  Here is how you can see your deposit information:

Your direct deposit information will be at the bottom of your Form 1040.

To view your 1040 after filing, Sign into TurboTax > Taxes > Tax Timeline > Some other things you can do > Download/print (.pdf). 

Please see the following FAQ article below if you entered in the wrong bank account information.

Did you have the TT fees withheld from the federal refund and are getting the refund on the Turbo Tax Debit card?

If so the refund needs to go from the IRS to the third party bank to the card.  This process can take up to 3 business days or more.

Your cycle code is on your tax transcript. 

[Jdawg2119]

@Mama2Many   I filed and was accepted on January 21st and can access my transcripts. But mine are saying As of March 2, 2020. So I’m not sure if that’s gonna be my refund date or that’s just what they have on there. I’ve seen people that have filed after me and have a date in February 

[emk0422]

@klmmaf1992  Mine says we received your tax return and it is being processed. That’s not the one where I should be looking out for a letter correct ?

[uksam21]

We are in the same cycle. My message went to your return is being processed after being on PATH for a week.

[Ldynay85]

@emk0422 I'm wondering the same thing. I had the Path Act message for 1 day then the message of still processing. 

[uksam21]

Does KY WMR work? Everytime I input my info it says it can't provide any info.

[uksam21]

Transcript, you can access it on IRS.gov

[uksam21]

Letter for what?
