2025 Tax Transcript Shows "Return Not Present" After Filing - Received 4464C Review Letter with No Transaction Codes

I just checked my transcript for 2024 and it's completely blank with no codes showing up at all. Looking at it today (02-16-2025), the transcript just shows "RETURN NOT PRESENT FOR THIS ACCOUNT" under transactions. There are literally no transaction codes showing up anywhere. The account balance shows $0.00, accrued interest is $0.00 as of Feb. 26, 2025, and accrued penalty is $0.00. Even the basic information section is mostly empty - it just shows my filing status as Head of Household but everything else like adjusted gross income, taxable income, and tax per return are all blank. Just got a 4464C letter saying they need more time to review. I checked the transcript again today and here's exactly what it shows: Internal Revenue Service United States Department of the Treasury This Product Contains Sensitive Taxpayer Data Request Date: 02-16-2025 Response Date: 02-16-2025 Tracking Number: 107476335155 Account Transcript FORM NUMBER: 1040 TAX PERIOD: Dec. 31, 2024 TAXPAYER IDENTIFICATION NUMBER: XXX-XX ANY MINUS SIGN SHOWN BELOW SIGNIFIES A CREDIT AMOUNT ACCOUNT BALANCE: 0.00 ACCRUED INTEREST: 0.00 AS OF: Feb. 26, 2025 ACCRUED PENALTY: 0.00 AS OF: Feb. 26, 2025 ACCOUNT BALANCE PLUS ACCRUALS (this is not a payoff amount): 0.00 INFORMATION FROM THE RETURN OR AS ADJUSTED EXEMPTIONS: 00 FILING STATUS: Head of Household ADJUSTED GROSS INCOME: [blank] TAXABLE INCOME: [blank] TAX PER RETURN: [blank] SE TAXABLE INCOME TAXPAYER: [blank] SE TAXABLE INCOME SPOUSE: [blank] TOTAL SELF EMPLOYMENT TAX: [blank] RETURN NOT PRESENT FOR THIS ACCOUNT TRANSACTIONS CODE EXPLANATION OF TRANSACTION CYCLE DATE AMOUNT No tax return filed This Product Contains Sensitive Taxpayer Data Everyone keeps talking about seeing different codes on their transcripts, but mine shows absolutely nothing under the transactions section. Starting to get really worried since this seems unusual. My transcript tracking number is there, but the entire transcript is practically empty. Is anyone else seeing completely blank transcripts like this where even the basic "INFORMATION FROM THE RETURN OR AS ADJUSTED" section is empty with just "RETURN NOT PRESENT FOR THIS ACCOUNT" showing? I'm really concerned because I know I filed weeks ago and got confirmation from my tax software.

The transcript clearly shows your return is in the pre-processing stage at the IRS. This is evident from several key indicators: the "RETURN NOT PRESENT FOR THIS ACCOUNT" message, empty transaction codes, and $0.00 values across all balance fields (account balance, accrued interest, and penalties as of Feb 24, 2025). Your tracking number (107476335155) and Head of Household filing status are the only populated fields, which is normal at this early stage. All other fields including adjusted gross income, taxable income, and tax per return are intentionally blank because the IRS hasn't fully integrated your return into their system yet. The 4464C letter you received works in conjunction with this empty transcript - it's the IRS's way of acknowledging they have your return but need additional time for processing. This pattern is particularly common in the early weeks of tax season when the IRS is handling a high volume of returns. You should start seeing transaction codes and filled fields appear within 2-3 weeks as your return moves through the IRS processing system. Until then, the empty transcript is not a cause for concern but rather a normal part of the early submission period.
