Need Help Understanding IRS Transcript with 570/971 Codes and Conflicting 2022 Dates Despite Filing 2022 Return in March 2023

Can someone help me understand my transcript? I feel like im looking at hieroglyphics. Filed 2022 taxes in March 2023, got a 570 code then 971. Now theres a bunch of numbers and dates that make zero sense to me. Here's what I'm seeing: SPOUSE: 0.00 TOTAL SELF EMPLOYMENT TAX: 0.00 RETURN DUE DATE OR RETURN RECEIVED DATE (WHICHEVER IS LATER): Apr. 16, 2022 PROCESSING DATE: Feb. 15, 2022 TRANSACTIONS I notice that my "TOTAL SELF EMPLOYMENT TAX" shows 0.00 which makes sense since I don't have self-employment income. The SPOUSE amount also shows 0.00 which I think is because I filed as single. What's weird to me is that the PROCESSING DATE (Feb. 15, 2022) is before the RETURN DUE DATE (Apr. 16, 2022), and both are from 2022 when I filed my 2022 taxes in March 2023. That timing doesn't make any sense to me. And then after getting the 570 code (which I think means hold) and the 971 code (notice issued), now there are all these other transactions listed that I can't decipher. Anyone else dealing with this or know what im supposed to do next? Should I be calling the IRS about this? Is this just normal processing stuff or is there an issue with my return?

Anyone know if amended returns take longer? Cuz mine been sitting there since last summer no cap

CTC Question: SAHM with low income ($3k) vs boyfriend ($61k) - who should claim 6yo for max benefit?

Only made about 3k this year as a stay at home parent. Have a 6 year old and trying to figure out if I should claim the child tax credit or let my boyfriend claim (he makes 61k). Need advice on which would give us the better tax benefit.

The max CTC is $2,000 per qualifying child rn. But you need earned income to get the refundable portion which is up to $1,600. With only 3k income youre leaving money on the table if you claim.

Random but make sure bf files as head of household if he claims! Better tax brackets + other benefits

Actually, he can't file HOH unless he's related to the child by blood, marriage, or adoption. He'd have to file single.

Accepted Tax Return w/ EIC and CTC - Timeline for Federal & Ohio State Refund?

Just got accepted for both federal and Ohio state returns. Claiming EIC and CTC credits. Anyone know the typical timeline for getting the refund deposited? First time claiming these credits so not sure what to expect.
