Code 570 freeze on transcript but WMR shows PATH Act and Tax Topic 152 - What's going on?

The 570 is a temporary freeze while IRS reviews your return. Tax Topic 152 is actually a good sign - it just means you're claiming a refund. The PATH Act message shows up for anyone claiming EITC or ACTC. Your return is probably just going through standard review procedures. Give it about 2 weeks from the 570 date before getting too worried.

Hey! Instead of stressing over codes, you should try taxr.ai - it's this new tool that analyzes your transcript and tells you exactly what's happening and when to expect your refund. It's only $1 and way better than playing detective with these codes. Here's the link: https://taxr.ai
