So the letter I received today was about me not filing a 2015 tax return. And that I have until Mat 5th to file or they will do it for me. Also, they are holding my entire refund until. So I just did my 2015 taxes and owe $90, and will be mailing out tomorrow. So this is the reason for my 570 & 971 codes.

[Bob]

Does everyone that is under review or have a 570 code show an amount on your account transcript as an account balance (negative number)? I have 570 code, but my account transcript shows a negative number (which is an account balance) which is the same as my return amount.A negative number is a good thing, just wondering if this means my return was processed just waiting for the hold to be lifted.

[Bob]

Same codes here with a as of date of 02/24/20. Only letter I’ve received was one about opening online account with the IRS. Just wondering if there is a trend of the codes in regard to the refund amount being higher than the average possibly. I have two dependents, HOH, return amount at least double what they say there average amount is, IDK anymore.

[Bob]

I filed 01/27 and still no movement

[Bob]

I have same 570 code, and the 971 code but only letter I’ve received was about opening an online account with the IRS. No idea whats going on as usual. Seems like everything in mt life goes this way

[Bob]

Still waiting. Filed 01/27, accepted 01/27, Code 570

[Bob]

Not yet, still have the 570 code with “as of 02/24/2020”, and the 971 code with same date. Only letter I’ve received was the one about opening online IRS account. I haven’t called yet hoping it updates tonight..

[Bob]

Very true. Its sad but there is no reason you should not be treating everyone in this kind manner. The person your talking to is typically not the person who is causing your issue, its there employer policy that is. Well said @jessica

[Bob]

Good to hear @ jackie6. I’m still sitting here with the same codes and no refund. I’m at least going to wait until after the as of date of the 24th before I call the IRS and ask.

@Shar did you receive a letter in the mail about your healthcare?

[Bob]

Evelyn did you recently open an online account with the IRS? I have both 570 and 971 code, a so far only received a letter about the recently opened online account. My date is also 02/24/2020

[Bob]

@jones

The letter I received in the mail was only about me opening an online account with the IRS no other info.

I filed on 01/27, and my transcripts updated with the 570 and 971 codes on the 02/09, with an as of date of 02/04/2020. As of date was originally as of 02/17/2020 before the 570 and 971 codes were present.

They have not changed yet last night or today.

I received the letter from the irs within 3-4 days of me opening the online account on the IRS website, and apx 2 days after my transcripts updated with that 971 code. So the timing is odd and makes me uncertain if my 971 code was truly in regards to me opening the online account.

Also, last night my bars disappeared on the WMR site and now gives the “still processing” and “refund date will be provided when available”

I called the offset line and says there are no offsets for me. My transcripts show an account balance which exactly matches me return.

My situation is the worse, not married (but living as married) but support family of 6, other than limited child support her ex pays. W2 employee but work out off house, and drive 40,000 miles plus a year at my expense. Bought a new house in August, but the amounts I can deduct for that weren’t enough to help this year. The new tax laws literally screwed me out of thousands (my estimate $8,000 to $12,000) by being a w2 employee but acting as self employed for the most part..

[Bob]

Not yet. Just the letter stating I opened an account with the IRS to view my transcripts. My date next to the 570/971 code says 02/24/2020

[Bob]

@kimmied I have the same codes, and also received the letter about opening an online account which I’m hoping is the reason for the 971 code. My numbers match what is in my Return as of today so not sure what is going on.

[Bob]

Ok well hopefully that’s why I got the 971 code. Praying nothing more than that. Waiting for Sunday to see if my transcripts update. All my transcripts show, accept for my 2019 wage transcript says no return received. Any of you with the 570 code have a blank income/wage transcript?

I filed before receiving my W2 in the mail, but TurboTax had a correct copy as my employer must of uploaded them to TurboTax. Just maybe I filed before my employer updated W2 info to the IRS.

Checked my transcript, I have the following codes:

571 Additional Account <span id=”IL_AD4″ class=”IL_AD”>Action</span> Pending Date: 2/24/2020 Amount: 0.00
971 Noticed Issued Date: 2/24/2020 AmiuntP 0.00

I called and spoke with a representative today. There can be two reasons: first, I owe so a <span id=”IL_AD2″ class=”IL_AD”>letter</span> may be sent out notifying me they will offset. Second, I didn’t file my 2017, they may <span id=”IL_AD6″ class=”IL_AD”>hold</span> my entire refund until I file. Sadly, <span id=”IL_AD1″ class=”IL_AD”>I can</span> not file electronically, must mail it in (and get this, I am owed a refund from that!)

Thank you for the info. I called the offset line and it says no offset found for me. Did u call that offset line, and does it report an amount for you? Any idea how far they can go back for unfilled taxes?

oing on.

Yes but the letter I received was about me opening an online IRS account only. Just wondering if that letter would trigger the 971 code by itself. Other than that no changes. Mt account balance on the account transcript matches what was on my return. 3/4 of my transcripts are showing, the only one that says “no return received” is my wage transcript. Although the SSA shows my correct income for the year. So I have no idea

@Bob I just created my account 2/4/20 and all <span id=”IL_AD6″ class=”IL_AD”>transcripts</span> for 2019 updated on 2/7/20. I am still at a loss as to the codes. I have not done anything different than any other time that I have filed. Hopefully we hear something soon!

.
Did you also receive a letter from IRS in regards to opening an account? Just wondering if them sending that document would initiate the 971 code also….

[Bob]

Same codes and date here. But account transcript matches the amount on my return as of today. I did receive a letter from the IRS dated 02/05 in regards to the account I opened on the IRS website, could this be the reason for the 971 code?

[Bob]

I still have the 971 and 570 codes. I called he offset phone number and it says no offset found. I hope it just clears itself. I did notice that on one of my transcripts it says 2 exemptions claimed, 0 approved. Not sure if this is common until refund approved.

[Bob]

I show the same 570 & 971 codes. Account transcript is filled out and the account balance shows the same as on my filed return. So not sure whats going no

[Bob]

So the letter I received today from the IRS was only about me making an online account in order to view my transcripts. Great here goes many steepness nights wondering whats going on.

I checked all me transcripts again and now 3 of the 4 for 2019 are showing. The income one is the only one not showing. The account record and other transcripts all show me as having an account balance of -$XXXX which exactly matches what was on may tax return. Only thing I can think of, is I did buy a small amount of cryptocurrency this year, then sold it for a loss. Did it on the Robinhood app, a few transaction with no profit. Other than that, have no idea what it could be

[Bob]

So I just received my daily informed delivery email from USPS since I recently moved and have a forward on our mail. And there is a letter from the IRS to be delivered today. Wow that was fast, but has me nervous as hell for the worse. I’ll update this thread once I receive the letter and open it.

[Bob]

So my blank 2019 transcript updated this morning and now shows

570 Additional account action pending 02/24/2020

971 Notice sent 02/24/2020

Account balance at the top matches the amount on my return

Obviously there sending me a letter. Has me absolutely nervous for the worse.

[Bob]

Filed 01/27, accepted 01/27. Transcript updated Friday 01/31 for 2019 account transcript only. However the transcript also says no tax return received. Has my filing statues “head of household” correct, but has 00 as exemptions which I filed with 2 dependents. Also has as “as of Feb 17th date”. Just thinking this means it is still not yet processed

[Bob]

Irs website. You can make an account and obtain them instantly online

[Bob]

I filed with TT on 01/27, and was accepted 30 minutes later. Turbo tax has “Estimated federal refund date of 02/17”, which is 21 days from date I filed. My 2019 account transcript appeared today, but says no return received and is blank, but also shows the date of 02/17. Any idea what this means? Past years I filed at all different times through out the year, one of the codes end in a 04 others in an 05. Anyone know what it means that my 2019 acct transcript appeared today but is pretty much blank? Thank you

2 dependents over 18 years old. Head of household, nothing in the 18a 18b boxes if this helps at all.

[Bob]

MY account transcript updated today 01/31 and now shows for 2019, but shows a date as Feb 17th which matches what TT says I should have my refund by. Says no return on file and no tax refund found. Filed 01/27, accepted 01/27
