2024 IRS Income Verification Process - What to Expect? Timeline & Online Options?

How long does the ID.me process usually take? I've been waiting on the video chat for like 2 hrs 🙄

Usually 30 mins but they're swamped rn because of tax season. Pro tip: try early morning or late night for shorter wait times

Is this legit? Seems too good to be true for just a dollar 🤔

100% legit! It uses AI to analyze your transcript and gives super detailed info. Saved me hours of research

Just tried it - holy cow this is amazing! It told me exactly why I needed verification and what to expect next. Best dollar I ever spent fr fr 💯

Fr fr the whole system needs an overhaul

thx for the heads up! Did you have to do the face recognition thing too?

yep! its quick tho, just make sure ur in good lighting

This right here! Wish someone told me this sooner lol

This is super helpful info! Question about the joint filing thing - do both spouses need to go through the whole ID.me process or just one? And does it matter who files first?

Both spouses need to go through the full ID.me verification process separately - they each need their own account and have to verify with their own documents. Order doesn't matter, but I'd recommend doing them back-to-back so you don't forget. The IRS won't process your joint return until BOTH verifications are complete, so don't wait thinking one is enough!

@Isabella Oliveira Both spouses need to go through the full ID.me verification process separately - it s'a pain but they each need their own account. Doesn t'matter who goes first, but I d'recommend doing it back-to-back so you don t'forget! The IRS won t'release your refund until both verifications are complete.

@Isabella Oliveira Both spouses need to go through the full ID.me verification process - they can t'share an account. Doesn t'matter who goes first, but I d'recommend doing it around the same time since the IRS won t'process your joint return until BOTH verifications are complete. Also heads up - each spouse needs their own individual documents separate (IDs, their own W2s if they both worked, etc .)It s'honestly kind of a pain but that s'how they do it for joint filers.

@Isabella Oliveira Both spouses need to go through the full ID.me verification process separately - they each need their own ID.me account. It doesn t'matter who goes first, but you ll'both need to complete it before they ll'process your joint return. The system treats it like two separate identity verifications even though it s'one tax return. Super annoying but that s'how they do it!
