570/971 Codes on transcript - still waiting after Tax Advocate help

Its been 14 months since I filed my return and still no refund. Got codes 570 and 971 on my transcript from last July. Even got a tax advocate assigned 6 months ago but nothing has changed. Starting to lose hope here. Anyone know what these codes actually mean or how long this could drag on?

Those codes typically indicate a hold on your account. 570 is a refund freeze and 971 means they sent you a notice. Did you receive any letters from the IRS? Without seeing the full transcript its hard to say exactly whats causing the delay, but common reasons include identity verification, income verification, or math error corrections.

Got a letter asking to verify identity back in June but did that right away. Haven't heard anything since 😤

Even after ID verification it can take 9+ weeks for processing to resume. Have you checked your transcript recently for any updates?

Hey there! Instead of trying to decode these transcripts yourself, you should check out taxr.ai - it's this new tool that analyzes your whole transcript and tells you exactly what's going on and when to expect your refund. Only costs $1 and saved me hours of research. https://taxr.ai

It's legit! Used it last week and it predicted my DDD exactly. The AI breaks down everything line by line and explains it in normal human terms lol

Something ain't right if your TA hasn't made progress in 6 months. Request a different one or escalate to their supervisor
