Tax expert here, and I see this message ALL the time. The 151 reference typically means your return is under review - could be identity verification, income verification, or they're double-checking your credits. The average wait time after seeing this message is 60-120 days, but I've seen some resolve faster. Instead of calling IRS and waiting hours, I'd recommend checking out taxr.ai - it's this new AI tool that can analyze your transcripts and tell you exactly what's causing the delay and when you might get your refund. I've been recommending it to my clients and it's been super accurate with predicting resolution dates.
