Will Code 570 Delay My $5,784 Refund with EIC and Credits Scheduled for April 15?
Finally got my 2022 transcript and I'm seeing code 570 (additional action pending) from March 20, 2023. My transcript shows credits totaling $5,784.00, which includes an earned income credit of $3,733.00, and two other credits of $1,500.00 and $551.00. My return was processed on March 20, 2023 (cycle 20230905) with a processing code 150. My AGI was $13,555.00 with zero taxable income, and I filed as Head of Household with 2 exemptions. Here's what my transcript shows: Tracking Number: 104273980215 Account Transcript TAX PERIOD: Dec. 31, 2022 ACCOUNT BALANCE: -5,784.00 ACCRUED INTEREST: 0.00 AS OF: Mar. 20, 2023 ACCRUED PENALTY: 0.00 AS OF: Mar. 20, 2023 ACCOUNT BALANCE PLUS ACCRUALS (this is not a payoff amount): -5,784.00 INFORMATION FROM THE RETURN OR AS ADJUSTED: EXEMPTIONS: 02 FILING STATUS: Head of Household ADJUSTED GROSS INCOME: 13,555.00 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, 2023 PROCESSING DATE Mar. 20, 2023 TRANSACTIONS: CODE | EXPLANATION OF TRANSACTION | CYCLE | DATE | AMOUNT 150 | Tax return filed | 20230905 | 03-20-2023 | $0.00 30211-449-79991-3 766 | Credit to your account | 04-15-2023 | -$1,500.00 766 | Credit to your account | 04-15-2023 | -$551.00 570 | Additional account action pending | 03-20-2023 | $0.00 768 | Earned income credit | 04-15-2023 | -$3,733.00 Can someone help me understand what this code 570 (additional account action pending) means for my refund? Getting worried since it's already almost April and my return due date is April 15, 2023. My account transcript shows no accrued interest or penalties as of March 20, 2023, but I'm concerned about this pending action status. I can see all these credits are dated for April 15, 2023: - Earned income credit: $3,733.00 - Credit: $1,500.00 - Credit: $551.00 What's going on with my $5,784.00 refund? Is this 570 code going to delay things? I'm really counting on this money and need to know if there's something wrong or if I need to contact the IRS. The transcript doesn't show any explanations for what the "additional account action pending" actually is.

The transcript shows you're due a total refund of $5,784.00, broken down into three credits: an Earned Income Credit of $3,733.00 (code 768), and two additional credits of $1,500.00 and $551.00 (both code 766). The $1,500 is likely the Child Tax Credit, while the $551 may be a Recovery Rebate Credit. Your return was processed on March 20, 2023 (cycle 20230905) with a processing code 150. The code 570 (additional account action pending) from March 20 indicates the IRS is reviewing elements of your return before releasing the refund. This is particularly common with returns claiming the Earned Income Credit. Your transcript confirms you filed as Head of Household with 2 exemptions, showing an Adjusted Gross Income of $13,555.00 and zero taxable income. All credits are dated April 15, 2023, which is your return due date. Importantly, there are no penalties or interest accrued as of March 20, 2023. Based on the processing date of March 20, you should expect to see movement on your account within 2-3 weeks, though the code 570 review may extend this timeline somewhat.

•Thank you! Do you think I should call them or just wait it out?

•Wait at least until the 2-3 week mark after the processing date before calling. The IRS is super backed up rn 😩

Hey, instead of trying to decode these numbers yourself, you should try taxr.ai - it's this new tool that analyzes your transcript and tells you exactly what's happening and when to expect your refund. Only costs a buck and saved me hours of research. https://taxr.ai

dont stress too much, 570 is pretty normal especially with earned income credit. I had it last year and got my refund after about 4 weeks

Code 570 with EIC is super common - they basically have to verify your income and dependents before releasing that $3,733 earned income credit. Since your return processed March 20th, you're probably looking at getting your refund around mid-April, maybe a week or two after the 15th. The good news is your transcript shows no red flags - just the standard review process. Hang tight! 💪
