How to check on IRS refund from last year? Stuck on hold forever!
Hey everyone, I'm trying to get my refund back from last year's taxes. I've been waiting for months and haven't heard anything. Anyone know how to check on the status or speed things up? I tried calling the IRS but keep getting stuck on hold forever. Any advice would be appreciated!

Someone filed my 2023 taxes without my knowledge - IRS won't let me file online now. Help!
Hey everyone, I'm in a bit of a pickle. Someone filed my taxes for 2023 without my knowledge, and now I can't file online myself. I called the IRS earlier this year and they said they'd take care of it, but now that I'm trying to file, the system won't let me. Has anyone else dealt with this? What should I do next?

I work in tax prep, and unfortunately, this is becoming more common. Here are some additional tips: 1. Check if you can file a paper return instead of online. 2. Consider using an Identity Protection PIN (IP PIN) for future filings. 3. Be prepared for a longer refund wait time while they investigate. 4. If you usually get state refunds, check with your state tax agency too. Hang in there, it's a process but it'll get resolved!
Thanks for the advice! I'll definitely look into the IP PIN. Any idea how long the investigation usually takes?
It can vary, but typically 3-6 months. Sometimes longer if it's complex. Just keep following up regularly!

Unemployment Overpayment Issue - Applied in January, Now What?
Hey everyone, I'm in a bit of a pickle. I applied for unemployment at the end of January, and now I'm dealing with an overpayment issue. Has anyone else gone through this? What should I expect? Any advice on how to handle it?

Quick tip: start setting aside some money now if you can. Even if it turns out to be a mistake, having a little cushion will help if you do end up having to repay something.
UI Overpayment: When will benefits resume after 2-week deduction?
Hey everyone, I'm in a bit of a pickle with my unemployment claim. I owe two weeks of overpayment and I'm wondering if anyone knows how this works. Will they automatically deduct it from my future benefits? And more importantly, when can I expect to actually see some money? I'm getting pretty desperate here and could really use some insight from folks who've been through this before.

Pro tip: document EVERYTHING. Keep a log of all your calls, save any letters or emails you receive, and note down the names of anyone you speak to. It might come in handy if there's any dispute later on.
That's great advice, thanks! I'll start doing that right away.

Hey OP, if you're really stuck, you might want to consider reaching out to your local congressperson's office. They often have staff dedicated to helping constituents with federal issues, including IRS problems. It's a long shot, but it might help move things along.

AuthorWow, I never thought of that! Have you tried this yourself? How long did it take to get a response?

I did it last year when I had issues with my stimulus payment. Took about 2 weeks to hear back, but they were able to help push things through. Worth a shot!
