Self-Employed Tax Refund Frozen: Code 810 Holding $34,356 in Posted Credits Since April 15 - Account Shows $10,712 Credit Balance

Filed my taxes and my transcript is showing a refund freeze (code 810) from March 2, 2023. When I look at my transcript details, I'm really concerned about what I'm seeing. According to my account transcript: ANY MINUS SIGN SHOWN BELOW SIGNIFIES A CREDIT AMOUNT ACCOUNT BALANCE: -$11,812.00 ACCRUED INTEREST: $0.00 AS OF: Apr. 18, 2023 ACCRUED PENALTY: $0.00 AS OF: Apr. 18, 2023 ACCOUNT BALANCE PLUS ACCRUALS (this is not a payoff amount): -$11,812.00 INFORMATION FROM THE RETURN OR AS ADJUSTED: EXEMPTIONS: 01 FILING STATUS: Single ADJUSTED GROSS INCOME: $79,496.00 TAXABLE INCOME: $53,237.00 TAX PER RETURN: $24,644.00 SE TAXABLE INCOME TAXPAYER: $78,996.00 SE TAXABLE INCOME SPOUSE: $0.00 TOTAL SELF EMPLOYMENT TAX: $12,987.00 RETURN DUE DATE OR RETURN RECEIVED DATE (WHICHEVER IS LATER) Apr. 15, 2023 PROCESSING DATE Apr. 17, 2023 TRANSACTIONS CODE EXPLANATION OF TRANSACTION CYCLE DATE AMOUNT 150 Tax return filed 20231305 04-17-2023 $24,644.00 76211-451-95111-3 810 Refund freeze 03-02-2023 $0.00 766 Credit to your account 04-15-2023 -$19,598.00 766 Credit to your account 04-15-2023 -$16,958.00 This Product Contains Sensitive Taxpayer Data I'm self-employed and I can see that my return was processed on April 17, 2023 (cycle 20231305), but I'm still stuck with this freeze code 810 from March 2. My account shows two credits posted to my account - one for -$19,598.00 and another for -$16,958.00 both from April 15, 2023, but nothing is moving forward. I can clearly see the credits in my account, but I can't access them because of this freeze. It's been over two weeks since processing, and I'm really getting worried since these are significant amounts. I need this money for my business operations. Anyone know what this refund freeze (code 810) means or how long these freezes typically last? Has anyone experienced this before and can tell me what to expect? Will they eventually release the funds or do I need to contact someone? Really getting anxious since I can see the credits are there but can't access them.

Your transcript shows a complex tax situation with significant self-employment income. The total tax liability of $23,644 consists of regular income tax on your taxable income of $53,237 plus self-employment tax of $12,087 (calculated from your SE income of $78,996). Two substantial credits were posted to your account on April 15, 2023: one for $18,498 and another for $15,858, totaling $34,356. After accounting for your tax liability, this leaves you with a potential refund of $10,712 (shown as a negative balance), but it's currently frozen due to code 810 placed on March 2, 2023. The transcript confirms your filing status as Single with one exemption. Your Adjusted Gross Income of $79,496 aligns with your self-employment income, suggesting this is your primary source of income. The processing date of April 17, 2023 (cycle 20231305) indicates your return was recently processed, but the earlier freeze code is preventing the refund release. The zero amounts for accrued interest and penalties as of April 17, 2023, indicate you're not facing any penalties or interest charges, which is positive. However, the 810 freeze will need to be resolved before the refund can be released. These freezes typically occur for identity verification or to review large refund amounts, which applies in your case given the substantial credits.

Usually you'll get a letter in the mail specifying what they need. Check your IRS account online too - might have notices there
