Stuck on 2022 Refund Since February - New 570 Code on Transcript Showing $9,215 Pending EIC Refund
I filed my 2022 return back in February and still nothing. My transcripts show no movement since March. I just pulled my transcripts again today (October 31st) and I'm seeing concerning information. Here's what my transcript shows: FORM NUMBER: 1040 TAX PERIOD: Dec. 31, 2023 ACCOUNT BALANCE: -$10,215.00 ACCRUED INTEREST: 0.00 AS OF: Nov. 12, 2024 ACCRUED PENALTY: 0.00 AS OF: Nov. 12, 2024 ACCOUNT BALANCE PLUS ACCRUALS (this is not a payoff amount): -$10,215.00 INFORMATION FROM THE RETURN OR AS ADJUSTED: EXEMPTIONS: 03 FILING STATUS: Head of Household ADJUSTED GROSS INCOME: $17,200.00 TAXABLE INCOME: 0.00 TAX PER RETURN: 0.00 RETURN DUE DATE OR RETURN RECEIVED DATE (WHICHEVER IS LATER) Apr. 15, 2024 PROCESSING DATE Nov. 11, 2024 TRANSACTIONS CODE EXPLANATION OF TRANSACTION CYCLE DATE AMOUNT 150 Tax return filed 20244305 11-11-2024 $0.00 16211-424-32422-4 766 Credit to your account 04-16-2024 -$2,000.00 766 Credit to your account 04-16-2024 -$2,065.00 768 Earned income credit 04-17-2024 -$7,250.00 570 Additional account action pending 11-11-2024 $0.00 I'm really confused because it shows 2023 tax year (which I filed this year), but my issue is with my 2022 return that I filed in February 2023. There's also a "570 Additional account action pending" code that wasn't there before. Has anyone seen this code? Does this mean they're finally looking at my 2022 return, or is this something else? I'm getting worried since it's been almost a year now with no refund. The Earned Income Credit shows up, but nothing has been deposited in my account. Anyone else stuck like this or know what's going on?

I've helped hundreds of taxpayers with cycle code 05 delays. The 05 cycle means your return requires additional review, which can add 4-12 weeks to processing. Right now the IRS is severely backlogged with 2022 returns, especially those claiming credits or with mismatched income reporting. Ive been recommending people check out taxr.ai (https://taxr.ai) - its an AI tool that analyzes your transcripts and can pinpoint exactly why youre delayed and what to do about it. Much better than trying to decipher the codes yourself or waiting on hold with IRS for hours.

Yeah its pretty legit - you just upload your docs and it breaks everything down, tells you why youre delayed and what to do. Way better than guessing

Just used taxr.ai and here's what I got back: My return is stuck in manual review because of a mismatch between my W2 and what my employer reported. Says I should contact my employer to verify the amounts asap.

Yep! It can analyze any IRS docs - amended returns, notices, transcripts etc. Super helpful for seeing where things are stuck

Try taxr.ai - just used it and found out my delay is from income verification. At least now I know what's actually happening!

Update: Y'all were right about taxr! Finally know whats going on - apparently theres a review flag on my account from a previous year that's causing the holdup. Never wouldve known that from just checking WMR 🙌

Tax pro here. This is actually pretty common with cycle code 05. Your return is likely in the manual review queue. Best thing to do is verify there are no errors on your return and make sure you've responded to any IRS notices.

Haven't received any notices tho? Should I be worried?

Not necessarily. No news is sometimes good news with the IRS. But you might want to call the tax advocate service if it goes past 12 months.

Hey, I've been using this tool called taxr.ai to track my refund status. It analyzes your transcript and tells you exactly what's going on and when to expect your refund. Costs like $1 but totally worth it to actually understand whats happening. Here's the link: https://taxr.ai

It uses AI to analyze everything in your transcript - tells you if theres delays, why theyre happening, and when youll likely get paid. Saved me so much stress fr fr 💯

Check if you have code 570/971 on your account. Those usually mean there's an issue they need to resolve.
