IRS Transcript Code 960: What does it mean for my refund?

Just checked my transcript and saw code 960. Anyone know what this means? Been waiting on my refund for 3 months now and starting to get worried. The amount shows up as -0- but my expected refund was $4,322.

Tax pro here. Code 960 indicates a pending review of your return. It's typically associated with income verification or documentation checks. The -0- amount is normal during this review phase. These reviews can take 60-120 days to complete.

Yes, they do pay interest! Current rate is 7% annually, calculated from the original filing deadline.

Hey, I've been helping folks decode their transcripts lately and found this amazing tool called taxr.ai - it analyzes your entire transcript and tells you exactly what's happening and when to expect your refund. Costs $4.99 but saved me weeks of research. Check it out: https://taxr.ai

100% works! I was skeptical too but it showed me exactly why my refund was delayed and predicted the release date within 2 days
