TC570 gang checking in! 🙋‍♀️ Got mine yesterday and honestly went through all the stages of grief in about 10 minutes lol. First time dealing with this code and the uncertainty is brutal. Really appreciate everyone sharing their timelines and experiences - it's so reassuring to know this is actually pretty normal and not some catastrophic error on my part. The waiting game is rough but sounds like most people do get resolution eventually. Definitely going to check out that taxr.ai tool since I'd rather have actual information than keep googling "TC570" every hour and scaring myself with worst case scenarios. Thanks for creating this space where we can all stress together! 😅

TC570 crew unite! 💪 Just joined the club this morning and honestly feeling so much better after reading everyone's stories here. Was spiraling hard when I first saw that code pop up - thought for sure I'd messed something up majorly on my return. But seeing all these timelines and knowing it's just a normal review process is such a relief. The anxiety is still there but way more manageable now. Really grateful for everyone being so open about their experiences and wait times. Definitely going to check out that taxr.ai tool since I'm already getting tired of trying to decode these transcript mysteries on my own. Here's to hoping we all get through this waiting period quickly and can celebrate our 571 codes together! 🤞

ugh im so sorry youre dealing with this. my daughter has similar issues and the financial strain is already unbearable without irs delays. sending you strength 💖

I'm so sorry you're going through this - having a child with special needs and dealing with IRS delays is an incredibly stressful combination. A few suggestions that might help: 1. Document EVERYTHING related to your child's medical expenses and needs. Create a hardship letter explaining how the delay is affecting your ability to provide necessary care. 2. Try the Taxpayer Advocate Service - they're specifically designed for cases like yours where there's demonstrable hardship. Yes, they're backlogged, but they do prioritize cases involving disabled dependents. 3. Contact your congressional representative's office. Many have dedicated staff for IRS issues and can sometimes expedite cases faster than going through normal channels. 4. In the meantime, reach out to local autism support organizations, food banks, and your child's medical providers about emergency assistance programs while you wait. The 810 code is frustrating because it's often just a routine verification that takes forever to clear. But with proper documentation of hardship, you may be able to get it expedited. Don't give up - keep pushing through all available channels. Your child's needs are legitimate grounds for priority handling. Hang in there. This will resolve, and there are people and resources to help bridge the gap until it does. ❤️

Filed jan 29th still processing... meanwhile my neighbor filed last week and already got hers back wtf 🤡

Filed mine on Jan 24th and just got my refund deposited this morning! So there's definitely hope - seems like they're working through them in batches. The processing time varies a lot but most people I know who filed in late January are starting to see theirs come through now.

Last resort option that worked for me: contact your congressional representative's office. Seriously. I was having a major issue that needed resolution and couldn't get through to anyone at the IRS for months. Called my congressman's office, explained the situation, and they have staff dedicated to helping constituents with federal agency issues. They contacted the IRS on my behalf and I had my issue resolved within 2 weeks. They have special channels to cut through the red tape when regular citizens can't get through.

I've been dealing with IRS phone hell myself lately, so I feel your pain! Here's what finally worked for me after weeks of frustration: Try calling the Practitioner Priority Service line at 866-860-4259. Even though it's technically for tax professionals, I've heard from others that if you explain you've been trying to reach someone for weeks about a processing delay, they'll sometimes transfer you to the right department instead of hanging up. Also, if your refund is over 21 days late and causing financial hardship, you can file Form 911 (Application for Taxpayer Assistance Order) with the Taxpayer Advocate Service. This puts your case in a priority queue and assigns you a case advocate who will actually follow up with you. One more thing - I noticed you mentioned your refund shows as "still processing" since February. That's a really long time, so there might be something more serious going on than a simple delay. Document every call attempt you make (date, time, how long you waited) because if you do eventually get through or file a complaint, having that record helps show you've made a good faith effort to resolve it through normal channels. Hope this helps and you get your $4,700 soon!

ngl i miss santa barbara tpg their website was way better at tracking stuff

Just filed with TurboTax last week and can confirm it's First Century Bank now. The transition was pretty smooth but you're right that their tracking interface isn't as user-friendly as TPG was. One thing I noticed is the account numbers are longer now and the deposit notifications come through differently. Make sure to update any auto-save info you might have from previous years since the routing numbers changed too.
