Just got off the phone with IRS. They said my refund is under 60 day review but told me to wait 120 days just in case. Getting a letter on the 10th. Nothing to do but wait they say. Anyone else been through this and got their money faster? This waiting is killing me ๐ญ
Just checked my IRS account and saw I have an open audit for 2023. I'm freaking out a little bit. When I log into sa.www4.irs.gov/ola, I can see all the details about my audit status. It shows that the audit officially started on 05/29/2024, and they sent their most recent letter on 10/26/2024. Under the "Open Audits" section for Tax Year 2023, it clearly displays: - Start Date: 05/29/2024 - Letter Issued Date (Most Recent): 10/26/2024 - Response Due Date: 11/10/2024 - Additional Information Required There's a note that says "The IRS sent a letter requesting additional information. Please refer to that letter for detailed instructions." But that's the problem - I can't remember exactly what the letter said, and now I'm worried because the response due date of November 10th is coming up really soon. When I look at my IRS account online at sa.www4.irs.gov/ola, it just gives me this basic information without the specifics of what they actually need from me. The website shows the "Open Audits" section very clearly, but under "Additional Information Required" it simply states "The IRS sent a letter requesting additional information. Please refer to that letter for detailed instructions." Has anyone dealt with this before? What kind of info do they usually ask for in these audit letters? I'm getting anxious because I only have until November 10th to respond, and I want to make sure I handle this correctly. Should I call the IRS directly if I can't find the letter? Really need to figure this out ASAP.
Without seeing the actual letter its impossible to know what they want. Could be anything from W2s to receipts to dependent info.
Got hit with a tax bill because some random company filed a W2 saying I worked there in 2022. Already sent proof I wasnt employed there but IRS says theyre backlogged and have to hold my refund until the case gets reviewed. Anyone know how long this nightmare usually takes?
Filed my return on January 26th and got accepted on the 27th. Finally got access to my transcript yesterday morning but its completely blank. Not sure if I should be checking for updates tonight or if I should wait a week before checking again.
Just got my Michigan state refund deposited but still waiting on federal. Filed both same day in January. Anyone else getting state before federal this year? Starting to get worried about my federal refund.
ya its totally normal. state returns r way simpler than federal. plus IRS is still dealing with staffing issues and old returns from covid years
