$23,145 Tax Refund Stuck with Code 810 Freeze Since Feb 16 - Verified Mar 5 but No DDD After Mar 27 Processing

My transcript updated on 03-28-2023 and shows a refund amount of $23,145.00. Had verification on 3/5 and everything went smooth. I'm really getting anxious because my transcript shows code 810 refund freeze from 02-16-2023, and I'm still waiting. Here's my transcript details: Internal Revenue Service United States Department of the Treasury This Product Contains Sensitive Taxpayer Data FORM NUMBER: 1040 TAX PERIOD: Dec. 31, 2022 ACCOUNT BALANCE: -$24,145.00 ACCRUED INTEREST: $0.00 AS OF: Mar. 28, 2023 ACCRUED PENALTY: $0.00 AS OF: Mar. 28, 2023 ACCOUNT BALANCE PLUS ACCRUALS (this is not a payoff amount): -$24,145.00 INFORMATION FROM THE RETURN OR AS ADJUSTED: EXEMPTIONS: 01 FILING STATUS: Single ADJUSTED GROSS INCOME: $10,124.00 TAXABLE INCOME: $0.00 TAX PER RETURN: $0.00 SE TAXABLE INCOME TAXPAYER: $0.00 SE TAXABLE INCOME SPOUSE: $0.00 TOTAL SELF EMPLOYMENT TAX: $0.00 RETURN DUE DATE OR RETURN RECEIVED DATE (WHICHEVER IS LATER): Apr. 15, 2023 PROCESSING DATE: Mar. 28, 2023 TRANSACTIONS: CODE | EXPLANATION OF TRANSACTION | CYCLE | DATE | AMOUNT 150 | Tax return filed | 20231005 | 03-28-2023 | $0.00 90221-439-34732-3 806 | W-2 or 1099 withholding | 04-16-2023 | -$244.00 810 | Refund freeze | 02-16-2023 | $0.00 766 | Credit to your account | 04-16-2023 | -$23,515.00 768 | Earned income credit | 04-16-2023 | -$586.00 My return was processed on March 28th (cycle 20231005) and shows several credits including withholding of $244.00, a credit of $23,515.00, and earned income credit of $586.00. My AGI is $10,124.00 with taxable income of $0.00. I filed as Single with 1 exemption. The return shows a processing date of Mar. 28, 2023, but I'm still stuck with that 810 freeze code. The transcript clearly shows an account balance of -$24,145.00 (which means I'm due a refund), but nothing is happening. Anyone know how long until I might see a DDD (direct deposit date)? Really need this refund soon. It's been over a month since that freeze code appeared and I've verified my identity already.

The transcript shows a total refund amount of $23,145.00, consisting of several credits: $144.00 in withholdings (code 806), $22,515.00 in credits (code 766), and $486.00 in Earned Income Credit (code 768). Your return was processed on March 27, 2023 (cycle 20231005) with an 810 freeze code placed on February 16, 2023. Your tax profile shows: - Filing Status: Single with 1 exemption - AGI: $10,124.00 - Taxable Income: $0.00 - No self-employment tax The 810 freeze code is significant because it's preventing the release of your refund, despite completing verification. Historically, post-verification release times range from 2-9 weeks. Watch for two important upcoming codes: 571 (freeze release) and 846 (refund issued), which would indicate your refund is being released. The processing date of March 27, 2023, with no accrued interest or penalties as of that date, suggests your return is being processed within normal timeframes, despite the verification delay.

That 810 freeze code from Feb 16 combined with your March 5 verification completion puts you in a pretty typical timeline. Most people see movement 4-9 weeks after verification, so you're getting close to that window. Your transcript looks clean - no penalties, no adjustments, just waiting for that freeze to lift. Keep checking weekly for codes 571 (freeze release) and 846 (refund issued). The fact that your return processed on 3/28 is actually a good sign that everything else is moving through the system normally.
