Only the IRS can answer that, so call them.

Code 1242 simply means that your return was e-filed at least 3 weeks ago, and your refund is frozen while the IRS asks for more information. You will get a letter from the IRS.

I received a code 1242, and now when inquire about my taxes on Where's my refund? irs.gov  the message I'm getting is....."We have received your tax return and it is being processed." The funny thing is.... I e.filed my state taxes 3 weeks latter then my federal and I have already received my state refund back.
