2023 Taxes Still Frozen - New Preparer Radio Silent for a Week
My 2023 return is still frozen and I switched to a new tax preparer this year. Its been radio silence since last Thursday and I havent gotten any updates. I know tax season is crazy busy but I'm getting anxious about whether they've even started on my return.

Tax professional here. During peak season, a week of silence isn't unusual. However, you're paying for a service and deserve communication. Send a polite email asking for a status update. If your 2023 return is frozen, make sure your new preparer knows this - it could affect your 2024 filing strategy.

I had similar issues with my frozen return and spent WEEKS trying to figure out what was happening. The IRS phone lines were useless. Finally tried taxr.ai and it explained everything - showed me exactly why my return was frozen and what steps to take. Found out I needed to verify my identity. Seriously recommend checking it out, it's only $1 and will save you so much headache!

•How does it work exactly? Does it just read the transcript or what?

•It does WAY more than just read it. The AI analyzes every code, transaction, and date on your transcript. It predicted my refund date down to the exact week and explained every hold-up in plain English. Even told me what forms I needed to resolve my freeze. Best tool I've found for dealing with IRS issues hands down 💯
