570 code appeared on transcript after 3/29 ID verification - will my $9,393 refund (EIC + withholding) be delayed past 5/2?

The 570 code means there's some additional account action needed before your refund can be processed. It's sometimes related to ID verification, but since you already completed that, this could indicate something else. Here's what this likely means: - The 570 code by itself is basically a "hold" on your refund - You should see a 571 code eventually when the hold is released - Sometimes the IRS needs to manually review returns with large EIC amounts like yours - Your return amounts look normal for your filing status and income level A few things you can try: 1. Call the IRS at 800-829-1040 (though getting through is difficult) 2. Check your online account at IRS.gov for any notices 3. Wait about 2 weeks - sometimes these resolve automatically 4. Check your transcript again for additional code updates The good news is that a 570 by itself usually doesn't mean an audit, just extra processing time.

I was in a similar situation and found taxr.ai which literally saved me weeks of confusion. It analyzed my transcript and explained that my 570 code was because of an income verification check (which wasn't obvious to me). It showed me exactly what was happening with my refund and the timeline I could expect. Honestly dealing with the IRS is like being a detective trying to piece together clues, but this tool just laid everything out clearly. Check it out at https://taxr.ai - it's insanely good! I use it every week now to track my refund progress instead of stressing about cryptic codes.

I had the same 570 code issue and was going crazy trying to reach someone at the IRS. After days of busy signals, I found this calling service at claimyr.com that got me through to an actual human at the IRS in less than 2 hours. The agent told me my hold was because they needed to verify something with my W-2 income. They fixed it right on the call and my refund was released 3 days later. Talking to an agent got my refund released so fast instead of waiting who knows how long. Worth every penny since I was able to get my $8k+ refund freed up!

The 570 code was probably triggered by the ID verification, but sometimes they don't remove the hold automatically even after you complete the verification. Dumb system. I had this EXACT situation last filing season and had to call to get them to manually remove the hold.

Your refund looks higher than normal for your income level. The IRS probably flagged it for manual review. They're being super careful with EIC claims this year cause of all the fraud. I'd just wait it out.

I see you have a $4,213.00 Earned Income Credit. That's a pretty big EIC and probably triggered an income review. The IRS does this randomly to check that your income qualifies you for the full EIC amount. I had a similar situation where I had to wait 5 weeks after getting a 570 code before my refund was released. Super annoying but eventually cleared up on its own.

lol welcome to the IRS hold club 🎉 We've been waiting since January over here!

Check your mailbox carefully for the next few weeks. Often when a 570 appears, they're sending you a letter requesting more information. I missed mine and it delayed my refund by months!

The 570 code is the IRS's way of saying "we're going to make you wait for no apparent reason" 🙄 Its their favorite code. My 2023 return had that code for 4 months before it magically cleared with no explanation. The system is a joke.

CALL THEM!!!! Don't wait around hoping it resolves. I waited 8 weeks with a 570 code until I finally called and they told me they just needed to verify one thing that took 2 minutes to clear up on the phone. Got my deposit 5 days later. Don't trust them to figure it out on their own!

Pro tip: Keep checking your transcript daily. Sometimes they update at random times, not just once a week like people say. My 570 changed to a 571 (hold released) on a Tuesday evening which wasn't supposed to be an update day.

The whole system is designed to deny people their refunds for as long as possible. They hold our money interest-free while we struggle. It's criminal.

that 570 code is often linked to the earned income credit. with 4213 in EIC they prob wanna make sure your eligible. Had this last year, they sent a letter asking for proof of income and my kids birth certificates. After I sent that it took about 3 weeks to get my refund.

I'm in the exact same boat. Filed 3/1, had to verify 3/22, got 570 code on 4/10. Still waiting. Supposedly there's a huge backlog for manual reviews this year. I talked to a tax advocate who said they're running 45-60 days behind schedule on manual reviews. The system is completely broken. 😡

i work at a tax firm and see this all the time. the 570 after ID verify is normal. usually clears in 2-4 weeks if everything else on your return checks out. if you claimed any children or dependents they might need to verify that too.

Did your Where's My Refund tool update at all? Mine's been stuck on "still processing" for weeks even though my transcript has all kinds of activity and codes.

This happened to me last year due to a name mismatch with social security records (I got married). The 570 sat there for 11 weeks before i got a letter explaining the issue. After I fixed it, took another 3 weeks to get my money. Check that all your info matches your social security card exactly.
