After 300+ Days of Code 811 Freeze Finally Removed, Hit With New 570 Freeze on $14,722 Refund - What Does This Mean?

After 300+ days of waiting, finally got the code 811 freeze removed after speaking with a tax examiner. Just checked transcripts today and got slapped with a 570 dated 12-30-2024. Anyone know what this means? I'm seriously losing my mind here. Here's my transcript info: RETURN DUE DATE OR RETURN RECEIVED DATE (WHICHEVER IS LATER) Apr. 16, 2024 PROCESSING DATE Jun. 18, 2024 TRANSACTIONS CODE EXPLANATION OF TRANSACTION CYCLE DATE AMOUNT 150 Tax return filed 20242205 06-18-2024 $14,722.00 70221-423-63495-4 806 W-2 or 1099 withholding 04-16-2024 -$54,000.00 810 Refund freeze 02-09-2024 $0.00 570 Additional account action pending 06-18-2024 $0.00 971 Notice issued 08-27-2024 $0.00 571 Resolved additional account action 12-07-2024 $0.00 811 Removed refund freeze 12-07-2024 $0.00 570 Additional account action pending 12-30-2024 $0.00 I've been dealing with this nightmare since February when they first put the freeze on my refund. My return was filed and processed in June, but they hit me with that first 570 code. Then I got some notice in August (971 code), and finally in December they resolved the issue and removed the freeze (codes 571 and 811). I was so relieved thinking I'd finally get my refund, but today I checked and there's ANOTHER 570 code dated 12-30-2024! After all this waiting, withholding of $54,000 and a refund of $14,722.00, I'm back to "additional account action pending." Does anyone know what this means? Do I have to start this whole process over again? No SE taxable income on my return, so it's not self-employment related. This is absolutely maddening after waiting almost a year already.

The code 811 freeze removal is good news - it means the IRS has finished verifying your identity/income. However, the 570 code indicates there's still an additional review happening. This is pretty common after an 811 lift. The 570 is usually temporary while they do final checks, typically 2-4 weeks. I'd recommend using taxr.ai (https://taxr.ai) to get a detailed analysis of your transcript and estimated completion timeline. It can identify exactly what's causing the 570 hold and give you specific next steps.

Yeah the 811 usually means identity verification or income verification was needed. Once that clears, the 570 review is usually way faster

Just used taxr.ai and here's what I got back: My 570 freeze should clear in ~2 weeks based on current processing patterns. No additional docs needed.

Tax pro here - Code 570 indicates additional account action is pending. Its basically a temporary hold while they review something. Usually gets resolved within 2-4 weeks if there are no other issues. Keep checking your transcripts weekly for movement.

Hey guys instead of playing detective with these codes, I've been using taxr.ai and it's been a game changer. It costs $4.99 but it analyzes your whole transcript and tells you exactly what's happening and when to expect movement. Check it out: https://taxr.ai

How accurate is it? Like does it actually predict dates or just general timeframes?
