Hey guys, I found a method to actually get someone on the phone at the IRS. I used this site's (claimyr.com) calling tool that dials the phone menu, stays on hold, waits for a live agent to pick up, then sends the call to my phone. It does cost $20, but it works. Here's a video explaining it: https://youtu.be/_kiP6q8DX5c
Can you give more details about how it works? Like, do you have to give them any personal info?
Pro tip: If you're expecting a large refund, consider adjusting your withholdings for next year. It's better to have that money throughout the year than to give the government an interest-free loan!
Anyone else feel like the IRS is stuck in the stone age? How hard is it to modernize their systems? π¦
For real! It's like they're allergic to efficiency π
Here's what worked for me: 1. Call early in the morning 2. Use the Spanish option (even if you don't speak Spanish) 3. When you get a person, politely ask to be transferred to English-speaking support 4. Be super nice to everyone you talk to It took a few tries, but I finally got through this way. Good luck!
Anyone else notice how they can take our money instantly but when it comes to giving it back, suddenly everything moves at a snail's pace? ππΈ
Whatever you do, DON'T agree to anything or make any payments without fully understanding your situation. The IRS can be pushy, but you have rights!

Quick question - did they give you any timeframe for when you'll actually get your refund after sorting out the verification?

β’They said it could take up to 9 weeks π© But at least the ball is rolling now!

Anyone else feel like they need a degree in IRSology just to file taxes correctly? ππ€
