TT 1541/570 code please update here

[Confused]

Just trying to see how many of us have the 1541 along with code 570 on transcripts. I called the irs and was told it means under review. I have seen there are several of us I just find it is weird we are all be reviewed.

Ok guys,

If you got a 1541 or a 570 or both, GET A TAX ADVOCATE. also, DO NOT use the Tax Advocate national line. It’s crap. Call your LOCAL Tax Advocate. You can find the number to your local office HERE: https://taxpayeradvocate.irs.gov/contact-us

They got back to me within 2 days and we already figured out what the issue is. I needed to have my wages verified and they are clearing it up now. In my case, my current employers W2 information hasn’t been entered into the Federal system yet (they had to mail it in, they are kinda in the stone age on that kinda stuff) so it was showing I overreported income and that’s why I had the 1541 and 570 codes. I faxed over what the advocate needed right away and they said my refund should be released in a week or two (everyone is behind due to the shutdown or it would have been sooner).

AGAIN, I IMPLORE you. Get an Advocate! If you don’t, you’ll never find out what your issue is, and the IRS WILL take their sweet time in letting you know what it is and how to fix it.

I’m still stuck on 1541 since Saturday with code 570 on my transcript as well. I called and they told me I was randomly selected for a 60 day review. I asked the rep why 60 days if I was only aware of a 45 day review. He said everyone is different and mine was selected for a 60 day review starting on 3/4.

I really hope we will all update this weekend to DDD. He said nothing else was pending and that I didnt need to do anything on my end other than “be patient”. ugh!

I have 1541 can’t see my transcripts online so I don’t know what code is on there but my issue is my last employer did my last 3-4 checks as 1099 but the stubs say non 1099. So I claimed it on my return as it was on my w2. At the time I filed I didn’t have paper copies of my w2’s and used what was on the payroll site. Which didn’t show a 1099. Soooo I got an advocate because I’m sure it’s not something that can be fixed without me having to do something. Also to the one that said they had not received your w2’s from the employer, that shouldn’t hold you up for long because one of mine hasn’t either but they see from the year before that they didn’t send them in til like June. I’m off a little over 3300 and it will affect my refund by $524. I’d say get an advocate. I’m waiting to be assigned one and should hear from them by Monday.

Hello, I’ve just been lurking here, haven’t posted before, but I am in the same boat. I filed through TurboTax and was accepted 1/28. On 2/16 WMR updated to 1541 Take Action. I had already been nervous because I realized I made a mistake with my income on my return of about $3000 (I claimed $3000 more than what was on my w-2) I called on 2/19 and an agent told me that I was “pulled for additional review” and that they would start looking at it on 3/4. They said expect it to take up to 45 days. She did not say that I would be getting a letter or that they had noticed any mistakes, just that I was one that was pulled for additional review. I asked if I should file an amended return to correct my income and she said yes, “you don’t want them to think you did it on purpose.” I claimed EIC, ACTC, and got education credits. I’ve seen a few people posting that they got 1541 and also were accepted on 1/28. I’m wondering if they just pulled a bunch from that day to “review”
Anyway, I blame Trump lol

I did some sniffing around and came across this:

1541 – Offset Overflow freeze set when offset storage within IDRS is not large enough to hold all generated transactions, or credit balance has been completely offset and two or more debit modules still exist

Hi, I filed on 1/29 with both credits and was accepted on the same day. On 2/2 I updated to 1 bar and the standard, we have received your return…..Last Saturday it changed to TAKE ACTION and that there is delay in processing my return and the 1541 code. I called yesterday, and was told, there is a 570 hold because they haven’t received my W-2. He said everything else looks fine and that no letters have gone out, So he said once they receive it the 570 hold will go away and then I’ll get a ddd. I really hope that is case, cuz I’m like everybody else, I need my money. I’ve never had this problem before, last year I got my money ddd on 2/21, so this has me a lil stressed out!! Ugh
