IRS Transcript Shows Code 570 With Account Action Pending Until February 2025 - Worried About $3,400 Refund Delay

Just checked my transcript and saw code 570 "Additional account action pending" dated 02-25-2025 on sa.www4.irs.gov. Anyone know what this means for my refund? Getting worried since I need this money. When I logged in and checked my transcript, I can clearly see: 570 Additional account action pending 02-25-2025 This Product Contains Sensitive Taxpayer Data sa.www4.irs.gov The transcript clearly shows the 570 code with "Additional account action pending" status. It's making me nervous seeing this on my account, especially with the February 25, 2025 date attached to it. I was expecting my refund by now and had planned to use it for some urgent bills that are coming due next week. I filed early (January 28th) and my return was accepted the same day. I had a simple return with W-2 income only, claimed the standard deduction, and was expecting around $3,400 back. My WMR tool was showing one bar with "return received" for weeks, and now this code appears on my transcript. Does this mean they're reviewing my return? Is there something I need to do? How long does this typically take to resolve? I'm really stressing out about this delay.

The 570 freeze code appearing on your transcript indicates the IRS has temporarily suspended processing of your refund pending additional review. The date shown (02-24-2025) is typically a processing cycle date rather than a resolution date, so don't be alarmed by the future date - this is normal IRS procedure. Looking at the OCR data from sa.www4.irs.gov (the official IRS transcript website), this hold is officially described as "Additional account action pending," which means your return has been flagged for review. Common triggers include: - Income discrepancies between your reported amounts and IRS records - Identity verification requirements - Missing documentation - Credits that need additional verification Keep monitoring your physical mail closely, as the IRS typically sends notices (CP05 or similar) explaining what specific information they need. While this hold can be concerning, it's a relatively common occurrence that usually resolves once the IRS completes their review or receives any requested documentation from you. The "Contains Sensitive Taxpayer Data" marker confirms you're viewing your official IRS transcript, so you can trust this status is accurate and current in their system.
