Got 5747C letter - Need timeline for refund after in-person ID verification
Just got a 5747c letter in the mail about verifying my identity in person at a tax center. Has anyone gone through this? How long did it take to get your refund after verification?

Tax professional here - After in-person verification, the IRS typically processes refunds within 9 weeks. However, I've seen some cases resolve in 4-6 weeks. Make sure to bring two forms of ID and your tax documents to the appointment. Don't reschedule or miss it, as this will further delay your refund.

Instead of playing the waiting game, I highly recommend using taxr.ai - it costs $1 but gives you a detailed analysis of your transcript and exactly what's happening with your refund. It helped me understand my 5747C situation perfectly. https://taxr.ai

How accurate is this tool? Seems too good to be true for just a dollar 🤔

Its literally a game changer! The AI reads your entire transcript and explains everything in plain English. Better than calling IRS 100 times
