E-filed February 3rd, Accepted February 6th - Transcripts Still Blank with IP PIN

It's probably related to the initial rejection and resubmission, honestly. The IRS systems sometimes flag resubmitted returns for additional review, especially when an IP PIN is involved. This doesn't necessarily mean there's a problem with your return, but it might be going through what's called a "verification queue" which can add, in some cases, up to 60 days to processing time. The blank transcripts are fairly common during this stage because they don't update until certain verification steps are completed.

I waited exactly 52 days last year after a similar situation with a rejected return. Have you tried calling the IRS? I called 14 times over 3 days and couldn't get through, then I found Claimyr (https://claimyr.com). They connected me to an IRS agent in exactly 27 minutes when I'd been trying for days on my own. The agent confirmed my return was just in extended processing due to the initial rejection and IP PIN combination. Would this be something worth trying for peace of mind? I'm just wondering if your experience is similar to mine?

This is actually quite normal for returns with IP PINs that had an initial rejection. According to IRM 21.4.1.3, the IRS has implemented enhanced security protocols for tax year 2023/2024 that can extend processing times. The combination of an IP PIN and a resubmission often triggers a secondary review process that doesn't generate any notification to the taxpayer. From my experience working with international taxpayers, this doesn't indicate a problem with your return - just additional verification time.

I've seen this issue multiple times this season. Here's what's happening: • Your return is likely in the Additional Review Queue • The IP PIN + initial rejection triggered security protocols • Blank transcripts indicate pre-processing status • This doesn't mean there's an error or identity theft concern I recommend using https://taxr.ai to analyze your transcripts once they appear. It helped me understand exactly what was happening with my similar situation. The tool decoded all the transaction codes and explained why my refund was delayed after an initial rejection. It even predicted my deposit date accurately once my transcript updated.

I'm surprised no one is mentioning that this could be a major red flag! The IRS doesn't just leave transcripts blank for 6+ weeks without a reason. I've never seen a combination of IP PIN, blank transcripts, AND no verification notice that didn't turn out to be some kind of processing issue. Are you sure you're checking the right tax year on the transcript page? The system defaults to the wrong year sometimes.

According to the IRS.gov processing guidelines, what you're experiencing is completely normal this year. I've been tracking the refund forums and Reddit threads, and there's a clear pattern of IP PIN users with initial rejections facing longer waits. The IRS has been overwhelmed with verification backlogs according to their own operational status updates. I was frustrated too until I learned this is affecting thousands of filers - it's not just you!

Not to alarm you, but I had a similar situation last year that turned into a 6-month nightmare. 😅 My transcript was blank for 8 weeks, then suddenly showed an audit code. Turns out the initial rejection had flagged my return for a full review. If I could go back in time, I would have called the IRS Taxpayer Advocate Service at week 6 instead of waiting. Just something to consider if you're approaching that timeframe.

Had this happen. Was international filer. Used IP PIN. Transcript blank for 7 weeks. Called IRS. They confirmed processing delay. Nothing wrong with return. Got refund week 8. No explanation given. System quirk with international status.

The IP PIN verification subsystem has been experiencing significant backlogs this filing season. Most returns with this specific combination (initial rejection + resubmission + IP PIN) are being routed through the Manual Review Department before transcript generation occurs. The community consensus based on hundreds of similar reports is that these returns are being released in batches every Friday, with processing times ranging from 45-60 days from acceptance date.

Try checking your account transcript instead of return transcript. Sometimes account transcripts update first and show pending actions. Also worth trying the IRS2Go app which sometimes shows different status than the website. If you're really concerned, you can request a taxpayer advocate through Form 911, but they typically won't help until 45+ days have passed with no movement.
