Hey there, whats your cycle code on your transcript, if you don't mind me asking? If your cycle code ends in a 5 - your a weekly, which means your WMR will update on Saturdays (I'm a weekly as well). An 846 code is good, that's your refund code! Thats what you want to see, so congrats! What has likely happened is that your transcript just updated with that 846 code and you will see movement on your WMR next. As far as your last year request for DD and then receiving a check, normally things like that only happen because there is a discrepancy on your DD information (routing number, bank acct number, bank name, etc.). Hopefully that doesn't happen for you this year. Hope this helps and good vibes!

Thank You. Cycle Cpde: 20190605 I have next to the 846 = Refund Issued of 2/13 but no DD. As mentioned WMR no update. So I was a little shocked. Weird because my friend filed on 2/4 and WMR updated & will be getting refund 2 days before me when I filed on 2/1

The best way to figure out when you are getting your money or if the IRS has approved you is to take the time to download your transcript on IRS.GOV.

Once you download your transcript

Go to "record of account transcript" and select 2019

Here you will see a bunch of "sh it" Just look for the codes and if you see "846" with refund date, Then you approved and all good.

The WMR and IRS.2GO apps seem to move slower especially if you are weekly.

The transcript will give you the most informative and most up to date information.

I have an offset and when I call the line it tells me my whole refund will be offseted but when I look on my transcript it shows no other codes after the 846 code saying that it is refunded.

I am curious does this mean my offset didn't go through. But it also shows that I am a weekly updated person.

In the past years if I got an offset it shows me the refunded amount that I get back under Refund amount and then the 848 code of who took the rest but not on this one.

Help if you have any clue as to what it is going on.

Butterlove did you get your refund yet or find out if the offset went through?

If you don't mind me asking what is your offset from?

Ok..I have a question. I checked the IRS account transcripts. 846 code 3-11-2020 refund. Now when I called the TOP number its said there was 3 offsets. My question is this after ITS issued the 846 refund code and amount..will the offset still occur?

Most probably.

The IRS must first approve the refund amount, after which the offset may be paid.

Hi I have a question. I see 570 code and 971 code with processing date of 2/24/20 . It hasn’t updated since March 2 and has not updated. I’ve received nothing in the mail I filed 1/9/20 my cycle is 20200605 so I know I’m a daily but I have been stuck since February 14 and nothing has changed. When I do call the irs they say a 8 week review but I’m not to sure because I never got a letter and even if so my 8 weeks is about to be up. Can you help

Once the IRS accepts your federal return, all updates are taken over by them. The IRS issues refunds, not TurboTax, so unfortunately, there's not much we can do.

If you're under a 60-day review and haven't heard anything after 60 days, you will need to contact the IRS again to inquire about the delay.

Hello, so last week Friday my transcript was updated with the 846 code. I called offset line today and it stated that I have an offset and this is AFTER I got my 846 code and DD date. Will they take my refund even though I have the 846 code Thanks
