Code 570 Delay on $11,320 Tax Refund: Married Filing Joint with EIC Under Review for 2024 Return

I just checked my transcripts today and noticed code 570 (additional account action pending) on my account. I'm worried about what this means for my refund. According to my transcript, my refund should be $11,320.00, with $5,008.00 in W-2/1099 withholding, $4,807.00 in credits, and $1,505.00 in earned income credit. Here's what my transcript shows: Internal Revenue Service United States Department of the Treasury This Product Contains Sensitive Taxpayer Data Request Date: 02-16-2025 Response Date: 02-15-2025 Tracking Number: 107472984097 Account Transcript FORM NUMBER: 1040 TAX PERIOD: Dec. 31, 2024 ACCOUNT BALANCE: -11,320.00 ACCRUED INTEREST: 0.00 AS OF: Mar. 03, 2025 ACCRUED PENALTY: 0.00 AS OF: Mar. 03, 2025 ACCOUNT BALANCE PLUS ACCRUALS (this is not a payoff amount): -11,320.00 INFORMATION FROM THE RETURN OR AS ADJUSTED EXEMPTIONS: 06 FILING STATUS: Married Filing Joint RETURN DUE DATE OR RETURN RECEIVED DATE (WHICHEVER IS LATER) Apr. 15, 2025 PROCESSING DATE Feb. 24, 2025 TRANSACTIONS: CODE EXPLANATION OF TRANSACTION CYCLE DATE AMOUNT 150 Tax return filed 20250605 02-24-2025 $0.00 16211-427-92084-5 806 W-2 or 1099 withholding 04-15-2025 -$5,008.00 766 Credit to your account 04-15-2025 -$4,807.00 768 Earned income credit 04-15-2025 -$1,505.00 570 Additional account action pending 02-24-2025 $0.00 My return was filed and processed on February 24, 2025 (cycle 20250605). Everything seemed to process normally at first - they have all my credits listed including the EIC. The codes show 150 (tax return filed), 806 (withholding), 766 (credits), and 768 (earned income credit) all processed, but then this 570 code appeared on 02-24-2025. I filed as Married Filing Joint with 06 exemptions. The transcript shows my return due date is April 15, 2025, but I was accepted the first week of February. Is anyone else seeing this 570 code? I'm getting worried about delays. This is a significant refund amount and I'm concerned about how long this "additional account action" might take. Has anyone dealt with this situation before and how long did it take to resolve?

The transcript confirms your joint filing status for tax year 2024 and shows all claimed amounts matching exactly what you reported: $5,008 in withholdings (code 806), $4,807 in credits (code 766), and $1,505 in Earned Income Credit (code 768), totaling your expected refund of $11,320. The processing sequence is important here - your return was processed on February 24, 2025 (cycle 20250605) and the 570 code appeared on the same day. This timing suggests the hold was placed during initial processing, which is actually quite common. Your transcript shows a $0.00 tax liability (code 150) and no accrued penalties or interest as of March 3, 2025, which is positive. One noteworthy detail is that while your return was processed in February, the withholding and credit codes (806, 766, and 768) are dated April 15, 2025. This is normal IRS procedure and doesn't affect your refund timeline. The 570 hold typically indicates a review process - could be identity verification, income matching, or credit verification. These reviews usually resolve within 2-4 weeks. Watch your mail for any IRS correspondence, as they'll send a letter if they need additional information from you.
