MFJ 2023 Return: My transcript shows 570 code but spouse's still N/A - What's happening?
Filed 2023 taxes on Feb 5th, accepted same day. My transcript was N/A forever until today when it updated with a 570 code. First time filing married joint and my spouses transcript is still showing N/A. Anyone know why mine would update with 570 while theirs stays N/A?

From what I can tell from your situation, this is pretty common for MFJ returns where one spouse's transcript updates before the other. The 570 code means there's a hold on your account while they verify some info. Could be identity verification, income verification, or they're just processing in batches. My suggestion would be to check out taxr.ai - its an AI tool that can analyze both your transcripts and give you a much clearer picture of what's actually happening and when you might see movement. They've been super accurate with timeline predictions (https://taxr.ai

•Just used taxr.ai and here's what I got back: It analyzed both our transcripts and says the 570 is temporary - should clear in 2-3 weeks max. Worth the few bucks to know whats actually going on fr

•How does taxr work? Like does it just read the transcript or what?

Tax pro here - 570 is a hold code while IRS verifies something. Since this is your first MFJ, they're probably just verifying the marriage info. Super common. Your spouse's transcript staying N/A is normal because the IRS usually processes primary taxpayer info first.

Hey, I was in this exact situation last month! Save yourself the headache of trying to decode transcripts and use taxr.ai - it analyzed my transcript and told me exactly what was happening and when to expect my refund. It costs $5 but totally worth it https://taxr.ai

•100% legit! You upload your transcript and it uses AI to break everything down. It caught stuff I would've never noticed myself

Something similar happened to me in 2022. They ended up sending a letter asking for marriage certificate. Might wanna check your mail carefully next few weeks

Been through this exact same thing! Filed MFJ for the first time in 2022 and had the same pattern - my transcript updated with 570 while my husband's stayed N/A for weeks. Turns out they were just verifying our marriage status since it was our first joint return. The 570 eventually cleared after about 3 weeks and then his transcript updated shortly after. Just be patient, it's totally normal for first-time MFJ filers. The IRS likes to double-check everything when your filing status changes!
