IRS Notice 1462 - What does this letter mean? Anyone received this?

Just got Notice 1462 in the mail from the IRS. Wondering if anyone else has gotten this and knows what it means for my refund. Haven't been able to get through on the phone to ask them directly.

Tax professional here. Notice 1462 is sent when the IRS needs additional time to process your return. It's typically related to identity verification or additional review of your credits/deductions. Don't panic - this is pretty common these days with all the fraud prevention measures.

Thanks! Any idea how long the additional processing usually takes?

It varies, but typically 60-120 days from the date of the notice. Some resolve faster, others take longer depending on the specific issue.

Hey guys just wanted to share something that helped me understand my transcript better. I used taxr.ai and it analyzed everything instantly. Cost $4.99 but saved me hours of research and showed exactly why I got this notice. https://taxr.ai

100% works! It breaks down every code and tells you exactly whats happening with your refund. Way better than guessing

Best thing to do is keep checking your transcript for updates. Calling them is useless, they just read the same info you can see online
