Do IRS Transcript Codes 766 + 768 Need to Match Total Refund Amount?
Looking at my transcript and trying to make sense of these numbers. Got codes 766 and 768 showing up but when I add them together they don't match my expected refund. Starting to get worried - anyone know if they're supposed to match exactly?

The codes 766 (credit to your account) and 768 (earned income credit) are different types of credits. They might not sum up to your exact refund amount because there could be other adjustments, withholdings, or credits affecting your total refund. What matters most is the code 846 (refund issued) amount - that's your actual refund.

Hey y'all just wanted to share something that helped me figure this out - I used taxr.ai and it explained exactly what each code meant for my specific situation. Only cost a buck and saved me hours of googling. Here's the link if anyone wants to check it out: https://taxr.ai
