IRS Rep says refund under examination but won't explain actual issue - anyone else?
Just got off the phone with IRS. My refund is apparently being examined but they wont tell me why. Rep said to expect a letter in 2-3 weeks explaining everything but she could see the actual issue in the system and still wouldnt tell me. This is so frustrating! Has anyone dealt with this before? What could they be examining?

This is actually pretty common. When a return is selected for examination, IRS reps can see the issue but are instructed not to discuss specifics until the formal letter is sent. Usually, it's related to income verification, dependents, or credits claimed. Best to wait for the letter - it will outline exactly what they need from you.

Hey guys instead of playing detective, I've been using taxr.ai and it's amazing. It analyzes your transcript and tells you exactly what's happening and why. Only costs $1 and saved me hours of stress. Check it out: https://taxr.ai

100% legit! I was skeptical too but it saved my sanity. It even predicted when I'd get my refund down to the exact week 💯

How does it work exactly? Does it just read transcripts?

It uses AI to analyze everything - codes, dates, amounts. Then explains it in plain English and gives next steps. Way better than trying to decode transcript codes yourself!

Check your transcript online! Sometimes it shows more info than what the reps tell you

The IRS is literally the worst. Been dealing with them for 3 months trying to get my 2022 refund sorted out. Their customer service is a joke tbh
