846 Code on 11/20 After Refund Freeze - Will I Receive Check or Direct Deposit? (HoH w/ EIC)
Just got my 846 code finally! I've been checking my transcript religiously, and there's been quite a journey. Had a 971 code about two weeks ago (7/01/2024), then 811 on 11/06/2024, and now my beautiful 846 code appeared on 11/20/2024. Never actually got any notice in the mail even though transcript shows "971 Notice issued" on 11/11/2024. Here's my full transcript details: ACCOUNT BALANCE: 0.00 ACCRUED INTEREST: 0.00 AS OF: Dec. 03, 2024 ACCRUED PENALTY: 0.00 AS OF: Dec. 03, 2024 ACCOUNT BALANCE PLUS ACCRUALS (this is not a payoff amount): 0.00 INFORMATION FROM THE RETURN OR AS ADJUSTED: EXEMPTIONS: 03 FILING STATUS: Head of Household ADJUSTED GROSS INCOME: 7,692.00 TAXABLE INCOME: 0.00 TAX PER RETURN: 0.00 SE TAXABLE INCOME TAXPAYER: 0.00 SE TAXABLE INCOME SPOUSE: 0.00 TOTAL SELF EMPLOYMENT TAX: 0.00 RETURN DUE DATE OR RETURN RECEIVED DATE (WHICHEVER IS LATER) Apr. 15, 2024 PROCESSING DATE May 13, 2024 TRANSACTIONS CODE EXPLANATION OF TRANSACTION CYCLE DATE 150 Tax return filed 20241705 05-13-2024 806 W-2 or 1099 withholding 04-15-2024 810 Refund freeze 02-08-2024 766 Credit to your account 04-15-2024 766 Credit to your account 04-15-2024 768 Earned income credit 04-16-2024 971 Amended tax return or claim 07-01-2024 forwarded for processing 977 Amended return filed 07-01-2024 767 Reduced or removed credit to your account 04-15-2024 290 Additional tax assessed 20244305 11-11-2024 971 Notice issued 11-11-2024 811 Removed refund freeze 11-06-2024 846 Refund issued 11-20-2024 776 Interest credited to your account 12-03-2024 Can someone tell me if code 846 "Refund issued" means I'm getting a check or direct deposit? I filed as Head of Household with 3 exemptions, and had earned income credit. My return was initially frozen with code 810 back in February, but now they've removed the freeze (code 811) and issued the refund. Just wondering how I'll receive it and if the 776 code means I'm getting interest too?

Check your transcript - if you see an account number ending in your bank numbers, its DD. If no account number shows up, youre getting a paper check. Congrats on the 846 btw! 🎉

Thank you! Where exactly do I look for the account number on the transcript?

Look at the very bottom of your account transcript. It should show right next to the 846 code 👀

Instead of trying to decode these numbers yourself, I highly recommend using taxr.ai - its only $1 and tells you exactly what each code means and when youll get paid. Way easier than playing detective with these transcripts lol. https://taxr.ai

100% legit. Its actually partnered with tax pros and uses AI to analyze everything. Better than guessing or waiting on hold with IRS for 3 hours

Just tried it - holy crap this is amazing! It explained everything about my weird 570/971 combo that nobody could figure out!
