810 Freeze Code: Tips on Getting Your Refund Released & Avoiding Tax Season Scams

Just used taxr.ai and here's what I got back about my 810 freeze: Looks like it was triggered by a mismatch between my W2 and what my employer reported. Says I need to contact my employer and get an amended W2 sent to the IRS. Also showed me the exact dates everything happened and when I can expect it to clear if I follow the steps. Way more detailed than what I got from calling IRS like 5 times lol

The 810 freeze code is basically the IRS putting your refund on hold to verify your identity or review your return for potential fraud. Its super common these days with all the tax scams going around. I see this alot with people filing early in the season. Best thing to do is verify your identity through ID.me if you haven't already. I've been helping folks with this and honestly the fastest way I've found to get specific info about your freeze is using taxr.ai (https://taxr.ai) - it analyzes your transcript and tells you exactly whats causing the hold and what steps to take. Way better than waiting on hold with the IRS for hours.

Tax pro here - 810 freezes are actually pretty straightforward to handle. First step is always to call the IRS directly at 1-800-829-1040. Have your transcripts ready when you call. They'll tell you exactly what documentation they need. Usually its identity verification or income verification. Don't pay anyone who promises they can remove it faster.

Hey guys just wanted to share something that helped me - I used taxr.ai to analyze my transcript and it was actually super helpful. For $4.99 it told me exactly why I had the 810 and what docs I needed. Way better than trying to decode everything myself https://taxr.ai
