They will begin processing it again in 3/22 they have to give you time to respond to notice they are sending. I have same codes and it’s because they increased my refund so by law they have to let us know before processing it

So we shouldn’t be to worried cause it made me nervous getting the codes and I have date 3/22 also so we just gotta wait a lil longer then I guess

I called yesterday and they told me the same thing that they increased my return because the refund amount was incorrect so that they were sending a notice and would begin processing my return again in two weeks

I filed and was accepted 2/12 just got code 971 today and it has been 570 for at least a week before that. I’ve already called about the 570 they said they don’t know. I wake up to the same thing today and I just checked it again and I have 971. I’m freaking out.

It would amazing if WE COULD CONTACT THE IRS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I filed with Turbo Tax on 2/11/21 and was accepted by Federal on 2/12/21. Why are my transcripts saying I wont receive a letter from the IRS regarding my code 971 or 570 until 3/29/21????????????????????????????

AND why is it saying I didn't file my taxes until April 15 2021???????????????

Sorry to take this out on you, but its very frustrating to pay Turbo Tax to file our taxes and we can get get any answers or a live person! I have NEVER had problems with my taxes in the past and nothing has changed! I just want some answers! The IRS website is crap and NOTHING IS UPDATED!

Following for an update:

971 code & 570 code both with a date of 3/29. I did claim a recovery rebate as well.

I got this as well , kinda freaking out . Hope someone can explain what’s going on . They said it was because we might owe money to the government like school loans

prijoseponce

@prijoseponce it could really be for anything. For me it was because I made an error and they adjusted my refund. If they are telling you that you might owe for something they are probably just holding it until they confirm whether it’s true or not. I wouldn’t panick too much yet. Sometimes returns also get flagged for essentially no reason and someone just has to take the time to manually review before they release it.

I do have student loans . Thought I was in a forbearance .
On my end I think that’s what it is 😣.

Have you received your refund yet? I have the same codes but with a date of 3/29...just wondering if it is a quick fix and you received your refund or not.

I haven’t received a refund yet. I did look at my transcripts and it has a Refund date of 3/23 and with $400 less than what Turbo Tax calculated. I’m just all around frustrated...

Did you ever receive your refund? I have those codes currently

Anonymous

@Tim11_2 Yea I did like 1-2 weeks after that. Last year they adjusted my refund a little which was why I had the codes. Now this year I have the 570 again… but no 971 and my refund amount isn’t different yet so idk what is going on this year

**Sorry I thought this was recent I wasn’t paying attention.

60more day hold, that’s horrible. I got the same code and dates .

Anonymous

@prijoseponce if you are facing hardship, and you are relying on that money you can call and get a Tax Advocate at the IRS. They can usually speed things up a little faster than usual. Unfortunately you’ll still have to wait a little bit but that’s the route I would go if you absolutely need the money soon

I have codes in this order.

971 - 4-1-2021

768 EIC credit - 4-15-2022

570 - 2-28-2022

971 - 3-07-2022

Im a single filer with no dependents. Never had this happen before and I have no DDD for 2022 and no adjustment to my AGI or my Refund amount that im getting back. My Return was accepted on 1-24-2022 its right at a month of waiting. Never taken this long for me. Any tips or help would be very much appreciated or even a reply back thank you. Im struggling to understand why there is code 971 on there twice with 2 different dates.

It has been 92 days since I got a notice on 4 April 2022 saying that my refund was being held for further review. I filed my tax on January 24, 2022 and it was received the same date. I have yet been able to speak to an IRS person to see why they are still holding my refund. I just don't understand it.

Same here filed on Jan21st accepted 24th. I havent heard a **bleep** word back from them and there is no reason it should take 6 months to give me my money. Im beyond fed up.

Yes, I am at wits end with this BS. I got that letter stating they were holding my return for "Further Review" back on April 4, 2022. They also said they needed and additional 60 days and by the calender it is almost 90 days. By Work days it is 57 so WTH? Government is screwing us around. I did see where someone had said at another site they were getting interest on top of their return.
