Appreciate your reply. I still don’t understand the future dates for the 570 and 571 codes. Checked transcript on 3-23-2021, so why wasn’t 570 “hold” code dated 3-23-2021 or earlier? And how can IRS know a week later that a 4-12-2021 571 release hold code will be justified, way back on 3-23-2021? Dates simply make no sense. Suspect a mismatch problem: Never received a 1099-G for my Calif state tax refund, so used Turbotax’s “no 1099-G” option to report state refund amount. Not taxable for 2020 federal, though, since for 2019 I took standard deduction for federal. None of the other situations you mentioned apply, I am a single, retired filer with no dependents, so my tax situation is not complicated.
