How to get IRS transcript? Need help accessing my tax records
Getting really frustrated trying to get my IRS transcript. I've tried going to irs.gov but keep getting errors. Anyone know the easiest way to get my hands on my transcript? Need it for a mortgage application and running out of time.

You have three options: 1) Create an ID.me account and get it online at IRS.gov (fastest way), 2) Call IRS at 800-908-9946 to request by mail (takes 5-10 business days), or 3) Submit Form 4506-T by mail (takes about 2 weeks). For online access, you'll need your SSN, birthdate, filing status, mailing address from latest tax return, and a mobile phone for verification.

Try using your email instead of phone number. Sometimes the phone verification acts up

Hey guys just wanted to mention there's this tool called taxr.ai that can help analyze your transcript once you get it. Its only $1 and helps break down everything in plain english. Super helpful when I was trying to figure out my refund status https://taxr.ai

Does it actually work? Seems too good to be true for $1 🤔

100% works! It saved me hours of googling random transcript codes. The AI explains everything and even predicts refund dates
