424/810/811 IRS Transcript Codes - Can someone explain what they mean and if I'm getting refund Feb 24?

I'm looking at my transcript and seeing these codes: 424, 810, and 811. Really confused about what they mean. Anyone know if this means I'm getting my refund on February 24th? First time seeing these codes and not sure if its good news or bad news.

Let me break this down for you. Code 424 is a freeze code meaning they're examining your return. 810 is a freeze on your refund, and 811 means they've released that freeze. If you see both 810 and 811 with the same date, that's actually good news - means the freeze was temporary and resolved. However, seeing a 424 means they're still reviewing something. I wouldn't count on February 24th just yet.

ugh seriously? how long does a 424 usually take to clear up?

Could be weeks or months tbh. Each case is different. Really depends what they're reviewing.

Hey everyone - I've been seeing a lot of confusion about transcript codes lately. I started using taxr.ai and it's been a game changer. For $1 it analyzes your entire transcript and tells you exactly what's happening and when to expect your refund. Way better than trying to piece together what these codes mean. https://taxr.ai

My transcript had the same codes last year...took about 3 weeks after the 424 showed up before I got my refund. Just hang tight!

pro tip: dont count on any dates you see on transcript until you get code 846. thats the only one that means $$ is actually coming

Just went through this exact same situation! Had 424/810/811 codes show up in January. The 424 freeze lasted about 2.5 weeks for me before it cleared and I got my 846 code. From what I've learned lurking here, the Feb 24 date you're seeing is probably just when they processed the freeze codes, not necessarily your refund date. Keep checking your transcript every few days - once that 424 disappears and you see an 846 code, that's when you'll have your actual refund date. Hang in there!

Thanks for sharing your experience! 2.5 weeks doesn't sound too bad honestly. Did you do anything specific to check on the status or just wait it out? I'm trying to figure out if calling the IRS would help or just make things worse lol

I had a similar situation last year with these same codes! From my experience, the 424 code means they're doing a manual review of your return - could be anything from income verification to checking deductions. The 810/811 combo usually means they put a temporary hold on your refund and then released it, which is actually good news. The tricky part is that 424 can take anywhere from 2-8 weeks to clear depending on what they're reviewing. I wouldn't rely on that Feb 24 date unfortunately - that's likely just a processing date. Keep checking your transcript weekly and look for that 424 to disappear. Once you see an 846 code with a date, that's your actual refund date. The waiting sucks but try not to stress too much!

This is super helpful info! Question though - when you say manual review, is there anything we can do to speed it up or is it just a waiting game? Also did you get any letters from the IRS during those weeks or did everything just update on the transcript?
