I verified my identity over the phone, was told that I would receive a paper check, I check my transcripts today and now have an 810 refund freeze? They asked me to come in but I’m a trucker and it’s hard. Any idea why that would happen?

The 810 freeze code typically means the IRS needs additional verification of your identity beyond what was done over the phone. This is actually pretty common for truckers and others who travel frequently. While the phone verification seemed successful initially, the system may have flagged additional risk factors that require in-person verification. I know its super frustrating when you're on the road.
