Code 151 means IRS is reviewing your return.  There is nothing you need to do right now.  IRS will send you a letter of explanation in approximately 4 weeks. The letter will provide details of the reason for the review and give instructions about what you need to do next.  Sometimes it is just a matter of providing some additional information.  The following FAQ will provide additional information for you.

There is nothing to do right now.  The IRS will send you a letter if they need you to take any actions.

The IRS is the only agency that can give you a processing time table. Their processing time varies by the workload and available personnel.  If you have not gotten any updates per the letter you received then you should probably give them a call using the information in the letter.
