IRS Cycle Code – Using Your IRS Tax Transcript to Get 2023 Processing Updates and Refund Direct Deposit Date

215 thoughts on “IRS Cycle Code – Using Your IRS Tax Transcript to Get 2023 Processing Updates and Refund Direct Deposit Date”

1. Accept 1/25. Processing date 2/28. As of date 3/7. 570 code with date 2/28. 971 code with date 3/7. I received a notice today. But just informing me of the stimulus amount. Does not ask me to do anything else. Can anyone shed light on this situation. Should I have update/ 846 soon.

2. WMR went from processing to under review. I know I have a debt with the irs and on transcript it shows they are collecting. I have 766 and 768 with a 826. My cycle date is March 7th. Since I claimed EITC and ATC. Had the same issue last year with my return missing a payment for a child and amended.

3. WMR says, “We apologize, but your return processing has been delayed beyond the normal timeframe.” Transcript says code 846 with date of 03/09/22, is this the date I will receive my deposit? Thanks.

   • Yes, should be. WMR updates are likely lagging your transcript updates.

4. What do 20220805 3/14/22
   Means?Do it mean I will get my refund on that day

   • Same we were supposed to BEEN have our refund let me know if yours changes

5. Is the return due date still accurate even with a 570 code?
   My return date is 4/15/22 and my processing date is 3/14/22, but the 570 code is showing up as 3/14/22 which doesn’t make sense to me since this is a future date?

   Reply

   • 570 is just for pending actions on your account. The date is a system generated future date for expected resolution. The refund date is on line 846. You should generally see updates every week if you are in a weekly cycle, and other dates will change.

     • Thank you so much! I now have an 846 code for 2022 with a date of 3/9/22, but the amount is less than what my refund was approved for/should be for? Is this common?

       Reply

       • I have the same, does that mean it will be DD soon

       • Unfortunately this tax season yes. You may have a TC 570 or TC 898 code as well – which means refund was reduced for an additional liability (e.g RRC or CTC ineligibility) or BFS offset.

       • I have the same refund issued date of 3/9/22 and my amount is different than I was supposed receive also…. all my information is right so… ‍♀️

     • Is there a reason why my date on 846 line is 3/17/2021?

       Reply

       • That’s for last year’s refund payment. you get one for every year. So need an 846 with a 2022 date.

       • So if I only have one 846 line and the date is for 2021, I need to wait until a line shows up with a 2022 date?

       • That is correct.

       • Same , I was wondering the same thing about that as well ?

6. I know I’ve seen this but can’t remember where , so I’m asking for my my code is 20220805 I know that means uploaded to their files on February 24

   They adjusted my refund because I accidentally forgot to include one of the rebate amounts honestly forgot but they fixed it I saw in my transcript, I have a code 570 (it has a 0 balance) and 971(the notice issued) it then at the top has -and dollar amount (my updated refund) and says as of March 14,2022 what does that mean? Thank you so much

10. My account balance on my transcript is less than what my refund is. Code 570 is listed on my transcript with a date 3/14/2022(that is also the “as of” date). Cycle code is 20220805. Does this mean the TC 570 issue was resolved resulting in a lesser amount being sent to me on or before 3/14/2022?

11. Ok so I filed thru turbotax on 2-5 and was accepted by irs same day. My issue is one that I haven’t seen on any of the threads. I had a baby in June of 2021, and I do know that this baby qualifies for the 1400 and the 3600, however when I did my return, it only had me input info for my 11yr old, and the only thing I am seeing is cycle date 20220805, and my refund is showing 2100 less than when I filed. I also have 971 code and 570 I believe. But I have been checking everyday with still no updates or new information. It has shown the same information for almost 2 weeks now.

16. Hi. My number is 20220805, Date of March 14, 2022. But my code is still 105. So just to clarify, I need to wait on the 846 code but the date is just a estimate?

    Reply

    • Correct. TC 846 means refund has been issued. The date next to that is pretty accurate (+/2 days), unless something else comes up that prevents your refund being issued (e.g incorrect bank account details.

      Reply

      • So all the way at the bottom my transcript says 766- credit to your account 3 times 04-15-2022
        971- notice issues $0
        570- additional account action pending $0
        But at the top it says code 150- 20220805 and then $2000. I’m so lost

        Reply

        • 150 just means the IRS has received your return and in their master file. 766 is for all refundable credits (stimulus, CTC) so you may see it multiple times. See this article to understand your transcript and refund: https://savingtoinvest.com/using-your-irs-transcript-to-get-your-tax-return-and-refund-processing-status-and-key-dates/

      • Where would the TC need displayed…

        I see multiple TC 846’s??

        Reply

        • Its on your account transcript. Look in the details section for an 846 code with a 2022 date (you get one every year if you have a refund issued). I published a recent article on this (see home page or search 846 transcript).

17. Hello Andy!

    Question….my batch code is 20221105, but the date next to 846 says 03/02/2022. Which date do I follow?

    Thanks for your help!

    Reply

    • The 846 date is generally more accurate. The cycle code is your IRS master file processing date and can lag actual payment refund dates by a few days depending on which cycle day you are in.

18. Hello, my bar on WMR has disappeared, but the topic still shows 152. The cycle code on my transcript starts with 2021 instead of 2022. Also, the “as of” date on my transcript shows December 20, 2021, but the last time I checked it (hours ago), it said March 14, 2022. What does this mean? Can you shed some light on this situation?

        Reply

        • If it starts with 2021, it means that the IRS is processing last year’s return or that this year has not started. Once it moves to 2022, then you know they are working on this years (2021) return. The As of date on the top right means nothing, more of an internal date. See this article on how to read your transcript dates/codes and which ones matter : https://savingtoinvest.com/using-your-irs-transcript-to-get-your-tax-return-and-refund-processing-status-and-key-dates/

    • I was supposed to get my refund today and didn’t. I also had my as of date move forward and then back ward to last year. Did you ever get any money ?

      Reply

    • Topic 152 is just a general automatic message that has happened to me for the pass three years I get one bar then my entire bar vanishes an I get the message that my return has been received and is still being processed with topic 152 if you are seeing this message 9 times out of ten your return was accepted and approved the system is just over exhausted an this message was generated to keep tax payers claim when the where is my refund tool has reached its max with a ton of data. This year I created an account on the IRS.gov portal viewed my transcript yesterday and like in other comments it’s was showing (846) return issued with last year’s date today it updated and my date is 03/09/2022 my batch number is 20220805 (I filed late night 2/4) anyone with direct deposit using Venmo or cash app will receive return two days sooner than predicted going off my batch group normally I would have gotten my return 3/24/2022 but since I got earned income credit it was a bit delayed I hope this can help ease some of your worries an anything you have questions about the IRS website has the answers you just have to dig sometimes

20. Not sure why my comment was deleted… Here it is again….

    Has anyone e-filed and requested direct deposit yet your status says “mailed”?

    I e-filed on 1/29, was accepted on 1/30, approved on 2/16, and ever since then it said it will be “mailed” by 2/23. I am seeing code 846 with a date of 2/23/2022 and as of today my status changed to sent but still says it was “mailed” on 2/23. Never had any issue messages. Spoke with my bank twice since yesterday and they confirmed that all info on my 1040 was correct (routing/acct#) and state they still haven’t seen any attempt from the IRS to deposit anything.

    I also called TurboTax and they confirmed that i undoubtedly requested DD and wasn’t missing any signatures, etc. So i have no idea why they would just randomly switch me from DD to paper check. I’ve always done DD and never had this issue. Has anyone had this issue? Did you still get DD or a paper check? and how long after it was sent did you receive it? Im assuming this means i got a check. just have no idea why.

    Any help would be greatly appreciated!!

    Reply

    • Hmmm..I have heard of this happening before when there was an issue with your bank account details – which I know you said was verified. Turbo says this: “If the IRS is not able to deposit your refund into your bank account for any reason, the IRS will mail you a check instead. Sometimes the routing or bank account number is wrong, invalid, missing one digit, or if the name is not exact as the bank account, this can cause rejection of the deposit. The IRS states a mailed check should take no longer than 3 weeks to arrive.”

      It could also be an IRS system issue that triggered this. While the delay is annoying, at least you will get the refund in a couple of weeks.

      • Thanks Andy! I did read that yesterday!

        So I was actually able to get ahold of someone at the IRS after posting this. He confirmed all my information was correct. Had no idea why they sent it via mail. Aggravating, yes, but happy it’s on it’s way.

        Does it really take that long to get the check in the mail once it’s sent?? I would imagine it would take as long as anything else sent via USPS?

        I feel like i can walk from here (Connecticut) to Utah in less than 3 weeks!

        Reply

        • Lol. I agree – faster to just pick up. I would imagine it’s faster than 3 weeks, but the whole check issuance process is automated and likely done by another group in the treasury. Lets just hope they get your address right. Please do post here when you get your check – interested to see how long it actually takes.

          BTW the IRS site says 6 weeks (so 3 weeks will be fast!)

          “If you file a complete and accurate paper tax return, your refund should be issued in about six to eight weeks from the date IRS receives your return. If you file your return electronically, your refund should be issued in less than three weeks, even faster when you choose direct deposit.” source: https://www.irs.gov/pub/irs-news/at-01-48.pdf

      • I don’t have any 846 code I don’t think . Today was the first day I have even had changes occur and not just N/A . I filed on 2/3 and got my state that same week but they are hiding my federal . Ugh I’m so confused and annoyed but this

22. So called the irs two days in a row yesterday lady told me they owe me 3000 more and I will get my refund in 4 to 6 weeks. Well today I was told that they need more information from me but they arent even going to send my notice until march 7th and she cant do anything to help me. And it’s going to be a long time. It’s because of my child tax credit that they owe me more so what information am I going to have that they dont? And why two different stories on what’s going on? I have code 971 notice issued with a date of march 7 and a 540 with that date as well. That’s why I called them. I need my refund I lost my job and was using that money to move closer to family!!

24. I have a cycle code 20220705 with refund issued 846 code 02/24/2022 (tomorrow). I use Chime, haven’t gotten anything yet. I’m not stressed, just curious if having an offset will delay the deposit? I have a small offset and will get most of my refund back, so I know something is coming.

25. Hello! On WMR, it says that I have been approved for direct deposit but saying it maybe partially or completely reduced. On my transcript I have the 150 code 2/21/22 date with $146 amount. I scroll to the bottom and see 846 on 2/24/22 with the whole refund amount. 20220505 is my cycle date. Does this mean I am receiving my whole refund amount by 2/24/22? Or will it be sent to the offset department? I have never received an offset letter but I do know I owe state taxes from last years return and this years. I’m hoping they will deposit the whole amount in my account by the 24th since it has the 846 2/24/22 date with whole amount!

    Reply

    • A few years ago we had our entire tax refund taken by an offset. There was no warning, no letter, and the transcript showed the full amount. I’m also getting offset again this year for unemployment taxes — I have yet to receive a letter (last time it didn’t show up until a few weeks after I didn’t get a deposit for the refund). This time I called the offset hotline and know exactly how much is being offset, but from my understanding the WMR and transcript will show the entire amount until the offset is deducted.

That’s a weekly batch so that means the year the week we did it and the day which is the 5th day on a Thursday our bachelors are weekly so the system May update tonight so hopefully we should get a response saying that our refund is approved and sent out. But as long as you’re 766 codes and your 768 codes what the earned income credits are posted we should be good and having an approval soon

30. Hello. I filed January 8th. Accepted January 21st. My transcripts said NA until the 11th, when they showed info with codes 766 and 768. On the 12th WMR updated to Path Act message. When path lifted, it updated to “we have received your refund and it is being processed.” I was excited because everyone got a refund date of 2/22 on their transcripts when it lifted. Nothing for me. No new codes. Was sure I would update Friday the 18th. My friend with the same codes and everything like me. Same time they updated to same message messaged me and said “WE GOT A DATE” I was so excited to look, just to see the only thing that updated was the “as of date” to 3/7. No bad codes. Just the 766 and 768 codes. No notice issued codes. No hold codes. Why wouldn’t have I updated with a date? Did they forget about me?

    Reply

    • No…it looks like you were moved to a subsequent batch for processing. Maybe one of your EIC, CTC or RRC (which codes 766 and 768 cover) amounts in your filing did not reconcile with what the IRS has on their records. So this moves your return into a later batch, to allow the IRS time to review. If all goes well, you will get your refund around 3/7 based on latest updates

32. Are the details on the transcript final after the 846 code? Yesterday 2/17 I got a transcript update with DD date of 24th and 846 code showing full amount.

    Today wmr updated to approved but may be offset. And transcript still says 846 with my full balance and that’s the last code I have. What I wanna know is, does this mean I’m not being off set. It said I “may” be off set I’m hoping bc my transcript says 846 with full amount I’m not. Also the 24th date, even if I’m offset does it mean I’m still getting whatever is left on the 24th?

Only account transcript and wage transcript show up with 2021 but wage transcript says return not field or soemthing lien that. The account transcript is showing only payments for the child tax payments. What does this mean!? I’ve received no letters or anything.

Looking at my transcript today for tax year 2021, I noticed it has two lines with code 766 stating tax relief credit and credit to account (dates of 4/5/21) and then 846 refund issued with a date of 3/24/21. We did not receive the amount in question (our entire refund was applied to past due taxes but was significantly less than the refund showing for 3/24/21) so I am not sure what this is supposed to mean?

    • Each item is a separate transaction and you need to add your credits with your liability to get the NET Refund. Looking at each line alone won’t give you all the information. See this article for more. But just wait for 846 with this years date to get confirmation of your final refund amount and payment date.

      • Ignore me, somehow I completely spaced the amount of the 3rd stimulus and that’s what that was lol.

39. My transcript shows 3/07/2021 but 846 refund code with this year’s tax info. I am confused about how do I know when I am getting my refund.

    • Remember your transcript will potentially show several years of tax information. So if you are seeing last year’s that’s normal – particularly as some items were paid in advance last year (CTC and Stimulus) so need to be reconciled this year. See this article and video for more. But just wait for 846 with this years date to get confirmation of your refund payment date.

    • I have code 570 with a passed date of 02/07/2022 I updated today with a DDD of 2/24 code 846..does this mean they released my refund? Also have a 3/7 as of date with a processing date of 3/7. When I go to the “return”filed boxed it says ‘no returned file’ WMR has delayed message as of now. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

40. My transcript has a 846 with my refund amount for 2/28/2022 then it has the code 898 in the amount as 0 but then underneath the 898 code is my refund amount .what does this mean

    Reply

    • Code 898 means a non-IRS debt offset. It can be anything, but in most cases, it is related to student loans, state income tax, child support, etc. You will get a notice with details and appeal process. You can also contact the BFS (Bureau of the Fiscal Service) that sends the offset instructions to the IRS to process via adjusting your refund.

41. My cycle code is 20220405 with a processing date of 2/14/2022.
    WMR hasn’t updated. As of today (2/18/22 my transcript updated this morning with code 846 with a date of 2/24/2023)

    Reply

    • Sorry the date is wrong with the 846 code. The year is 2022! Haha
      So the DDD is 2/24/22 not 23!

    • My transcript is showing “no return filed” but I did file.
      I filed on January 21st 2022
      And it was accepted January 24th. Now when I check my “get my refund” all it says is “your tax return is still being processed. A refund date will be provided when available.”

      Anyone else having the same issue?

42. My 846 line updated it says refund issued 02-24-2022. My cycle code says 20220705. Does this mean I should get my refund by the 24th before I got the delayed message on Monday I had a estimated date of 2/18 but wasn’t able to see my transcripts till today

43. I just checked my transcript and it says 846 refund issued 2-24-2022. Does that mean I will have it on 2/24/2022??

    Reply

    • Yes. It may come a day or two before or after that date. But you are getting it and should be able to see the amount on your transcript. WMR status should also change to refund sent when issued by the IRS (a couple of days before that date)

44. I’m finally able to view my transcripts it is showing
    Form #1040
    Cycle posted 20220705
    Received date April 15th 2022

    Am I close to getting a refund date?

    I should get it before April 15th correct?

    Reply

    • You need to see code 846 on your transcript with a 2022 date to know your refund is being issued. Until then, the 04/15/2022 is just a system default date for the end of tax season. See some of the other comments for examples.

    • U should have it February 24 u and I have the same cycle code and that’s when I’m getting mine

      • How do you know the 24th is the date you get it?
        My code is 20220705 and April 15th is my received date. I filed Feb 6th and it was accepted on the 7th. Will mine be the 24th too?

45. I am curious, since I fall into the weekly pool, are transcripts updated daily? I been trying to log in for days and now that I could today, being in the Thursday pool, Do I waste my time for the next week trying to download a updated version daily of my transcript or just ride it out until the next Thursday? Or does the weekly pool just apply to when the refunds will be issued? I hope that made sense.

    Reply

    • You should check daily if time permits (or every other day), as there are cases when the IRS does process multiple batches on different days. But if not, you should expect a significant update next week!

47. I have a cycle code of 20220505 with processing date February 21st and still no 846 code

    • Check again, I got my code 846 and ddd today. Same cycle code

49. I just checked my Transcript today and my cycle is 20220605 and a date of 2-28-2022
    846 code says 3-17-2021?
    Can you help me understand this please!

    Reply

    • You will need code 846 with a 2022 date. Otherwise your return and refund are still under processing. The 2-28-2022 date is just a system date aligned with your cycle date and will update as processing continues. Note that 2-28 may eventually be your refund date if processing is complete in the next couple of days. But at this stage you need to wait for a 846 code with a 2022 date (like you got in 2021). See this recent YT video I made on this: https://youtu.be/BHKh8BkwAJo

50. When I check my refund status it shows: “We apologize, but your return processing has been delayed beyond the normal timeframe.”
    When I check my Transcript
    I see a processing date of Feb. 28, 2022
    I see a cycle code of: 20220605 Which would seem to indicate that I should have either gotten my return on the February 11th 2022, or today, the 17th
    I also see a code 846 refund issued with a date of 3-24-21
    What does this all mean?

    Reply

    • The 846 line is the one that matters. It basically saying you should get you refund by March 24th (likely sooner if processing is complete). WMR/IRS2Go should change status to Refund Sent. You may actually see the money pending in your bank account (assuming you chose DDD) before WMR updates. Paper checks will take a bit longer.

      • I now realize that 3-24-21 is when I got my refund last year. That is a few lines down on the transcript. At the top it shows Code: 150 Cycle: 20220605 and Date: 2-28-2022.

        Reply

      • no that was her refund from last year if it’s showing 3-24-21. She needs to wait for 846 with 2022 as the year

        Reply

    • When did your transcript give you a 846 code because we have the same cycle code and the same wmr message and same February 28th processing date but the only thing is that I don’t have a 846.
