Code 570 on transcript - refund adjusted and on hold - timeline help needed

Just checked my transcript and saw code 570 which means theres a hold. They adjusted my refund amount too. Anyone know if this resolves itself or how long the delay typically is? Getting frustrated with the wait.

Tax professional here - Code 570 indicates a hold on your account while the IRS reviews something. When theres also an adjustment, you'll typically see a 971 notice code follow within a week. The good news is these usually resolve within 2-4 weeks. Watch for code 571 which means the hold was released. Then you should see 846 code for your refund date.

Just wait it out for now. If you get any notices in the mail make sure to respond to those promptly!

Hey everyone - instead of playing detective with transcript codes, I've been using taxr.ai and it's been a game changer. For $1 it analyzes your entire transcript and tells you exactly what's happening and when to expect your refund. Check it out: https://taxr.ai

Had this exact situation last year! Code 570 with an adjustment drove me crazy for about 3 weeks. Turned out they just needed to verify some income reporting. Like @Madison Allen said, just watch for the 971 notice code and then 571 when it releases. The waiting is the worst part but it does resolve. Hang in there!

Same thing happened to me last month! Had code 570 with an adjustment and was panicking. Took about 2.5 weeks to resolve - got the 971 notice code after about a week like Madison mentioned, then 571 to release the hold. The adjustment was actually in my favor too (they corrected a calculation error I made). Just keep checking your transcript every few days and try not to stress too much about it. The IRS computer systems are slow but they do work through these holds eventually.

That's so reassuring to hear! @Javier Morales did you have to do anything during those 2.5 weeks or just wait? And was the adjustment obvious when you looked back at your return or was it something you wouldn t'have caught?

Been through this exact scenario twice now! The first time I panicked and called the IRS hotline (waste of 3 hours on hold lol). Second time I just waited it out and it resolved in about 18 days. The key thing is don't file any amendments or send extra paperwork unless they specifically ask for it - that can actually slow things down more. Your transcript will update usually on Wednesdays or Fridays so those are the best days to check. The 570 hold with adjustment combo is super common this time of year, especially if you have any business income or complex deductions.
