Anyone else stuck with 01 code on transcript? Still waiting for refund
Been checking my transcript every day and still showing 01 code. Starting to lose my mind here. Filed back in February and its almost April now. Anyone else dealing with this or know what it means?

Tax professional here. Code 01 typically indicates your return is still in the initial processing stage. This means the IRS has received your return but hasn't begun the detailed review process yet. With current processing delays, this isn't unusual, though frustrating. Keep monitoring your transcript for code changes - specifically looking for 846 which indicates your refund has been approved.

omg thank you for explaining! Do you know how long it usually takes to move past this stage?

Unfortunately there's no set timeline these days. Could be weeks or months tbh. The IRS is still playing catch up from previous years 🤷♀️

Hey guys, I've been helping people understand their transcripts using taxr.ai - it's seriously a game changer for understanding exactly whats going on and when you'll likely get paid. It's only $1 and way better than trying to piece together info from different posts. https://taxr.ai

100% legit! It analyzes your whole transcript and explains everything in plain english. Even tells you if there are any red flags that might delay things
