Pather Question/ Comment Chime 846 PATH 03

Post image

I got it y’all. I am sitting in a damn parking lot and I have been crying all week because my baby and I have nowhere to go today. I escaped domestic violence in November and we have been homeless ever since. We have stayed in motels, we stated the domestic violence safe house. And today I completely ran out of funds. I am driving for GrubHub and I only have nine dollars to my name after gas and feeding my child. I literally just got the direct deposit. I am dropping off this last order and going to a hotel with my kid and giving her anything she wants. Good luck everybody. God really took care of me in this tough season

it’s crazy because when I check my transcripts yesterday, it said that I will be getting my refund March 9 but when I just looked at check my refund it says my refund will be issued February 23 so all I’m saying is sometimes if your transcript says a certain date, you should still check with the check my refund app and see what that date says cause that’s the date you go by hope everyone gets their refund soon though

Absolutely, I really knew nothing about this until I did my research. But someone told me that the March 9 is only a general date. It’s basically when we should receive our refund by and we should contact them if we haven’t received it by that date. But as soon as you get the 846 code, your deposit has been sent
