570 code on IRS transcript since 3/24, facing financial hardship with truck payment due soon. Need advice on expediting refund!

Oof, that's a tough spot. I've been there before. Here's what I'd suggest: • Call the IRS ASAP and explain your hardship • Use the magic words "financial hardship" when you talk to them • Have all your docs ready - tax return, verification date, and proof of your truck payment deadline • Ask if they can expedite your refund due to your situation • Be super polite but persistent • If the first person can't help, politely ask to speak with a supervisor Good luck! The IRS can be a pain, but sometimes they do come through when you're in a bind.

man the irs is such a joke these days. i filed in january and still nothing. its like they dont even care about us little guys 😤

Have you tried reaching out to your local taxpayer advocate? They can sometimes help push things along when you're facing a hardship.

I found a way to actually get someone on the phone! I used this site's (claimyr.com) calling tool that dials the phone menu, stays on hold, waits for a live agent to pick up, then sends the call to my phone. It does cost $20, but it works. Here's a video about it: https://youtu.be/_kiP6q8DX5c

570 code usually means they're reviewing your return. Could be identity verification or they need more info. Did you get any letters in the mail?

have u tried checking ur transcript online? sometimes it shows more info than the where's my refund tool

This might sound crazy, but have you tried reaching out to your local congressperson's office? I was stuck in IRS limbo for months and their office helped me get it sorted out in like 2 weeks!

Ugh, I feel for you. The IRS is so backed up this year its ridiculous. I filed in February and just got my refund last week. Hang in there!

Pro tip: if you do get through to someone, ask them to put a note on your account about the financial hardship. It might help if someone else looks at your case later.
