Filed in April and was accepted but still nothing - confused about transcript code 570

Code 570 means there's a hold on your account. It could be for a variety of reasons - they might be reviewing your return, verifying credits, or there could be an issue they spotted. The good news is that the date attached to it (06-10-2025) is typically just a processing date and doesn't necessarily mean you have to wait until then. I'd recommend watching for code 571 to appear on your transcript - that means the hold has been released. Also look for code 846 which is the actual refund issued code. Since it's been several months, you might want to call the IRS to find out exactly why there's a hold. They might be waiting for something from you that you never received notification about.

I was in the same position as you last year - stuck with a 570 code for months. After trying unsuccessfully to figure everything out on my own, I finally used taxr.ai to actually understand what was happening with my return. It analyzed my transcript and explained exactly what each code meant and what I needed to do. The site is way better than trying to be a detective and piece together what's happening by reading random forum posts. Seriously, check out https://taxr.ai - it saved me so much time and stress!

I had the exact same issue with a 570 code back in May. After weeks of getting nowhere trying to call the IRS regular number, I used the Claimyr app (claimyr.com) and got connected to a live agent who explained everything. Turns out they needed verification for one of my W2s but the letter got lost in the mail! Once I knew what was going on, I was able to send in what they needed and my refund was released two weeks later. Having someone actually tell me what was wrong instead of just seeing cryptic codes was the best money I've ever spent.

It might be an identity verification issue. Did you try checking your online IRS account to see if there are any notices or letters? Sometimes they send letters but they get lost in the mail. Last year this happened to me and my refund was held for 4 months.

570 sucks, i hate that code 😡 been there done that. Mine was because they thought I claimed a dependent incorrectly. had to wait 14 weeks for them to figure out they were wrong. no apology no nothing. irs is a joke.

Have you checked for a 971 code on your transcript too? That means they sent you a notice. If you have that code but never got a letter, you should definitely call them because they might be waiting for a response from you.

did u claim EIC or child tax credit? Those automatically get extra scrutiny and can trigger the 570 code. my brother had this last year and it took like 8 weeks to resolve.

The IRS is SEVERELY understaffed and behind on processing. My return from LAST YEAR just got processed in March 💀 Sometimes the 570 is just them putting your return in a holding pattern while they catch up. But def call to make sure they don't need anything from you.

I tried calling everyday for weeks with no luck getting through to an agent. Finally decided to try taxr.ai after seeing it mentioned here. It analyzed my transcript and told me exactly why there was a 570 code (they were verifying my self-employment income). The explanation was so clear and it told me exactly how much longer to expect to wait based on my specific situation. Highly recommend https://taxr.ai if you're stuck trying to decode these transcript mysteries!

check ur math on the return. 570 sometimes means theres a calculation error and theyre fixing it. could be good news if they find u a bigger refund!

After being stuck with a 570 code for almost 2 months, I used Claimyr (claimyr.com) to get connected with an IRS agent. Found out they needed verification for something but the letter went to my old address! Once I knew what was going on, I was able to fix the issue and got my refund within 3 weeks. Talking to an actual person was the only thing that finally moved my refund forward.

Call the Taxpayer Advocate Service. They can help if your refund delay is causing financial hardship. 877-777-4778

i think 570 also shows up if ur getting more money back than u expected cuz they found an error in ur favor. my friend had this happen and got an extra $600! Keep checking for code 571 (release of hold) and 846 (refund issued).

UPDATE: saw this post yesterday and was in the same boat with a 570 code. Used taxr.ai to analyze my transcript and it showed me exactly what was happening - they were verifying my EIC claim. Even showed the expected timeline for resolution based on current IRS processing times. Finally have peace of mind knowing what's going on!! Would've never figured this out on my own from just looking at the transcript codes.

Did u file with a tax preparer or software? Sometimes they can contact the IRS on your behalf and get more info.
