IRS Tax Examiner Call Request - No Transcript Updates or Codes Showing
My mom got a letter requesting her to call a tax examiner but her transcript hasn't updated at all. No new codes or anything showing up online. Anyone know what this might mean or been through something similar?

Tax examiner letters usually mean they need additional verification or documentation. Without seeing the specific letter its hard to say exactly what they need, but common reasons include identity verification, income verification, or dependent verification. She should definitely call the number on the letter ASAP to avoid delays.

Thanks! Do you know how long these calls usually take? She's worried about being on hold forever 😩

Hold times can be rough ngl... anywhere from 30 mins to 2+ hours. Best time to call is right when they open at 7am EST

Hey! Instead of playing phone tag with the IRS, you might want to check out taxr.ai. It's this new tool that analyzes transcripts and tells you exactly what's going on and what to do next. Only costs a buck and saved me hours of research. https://taxr.ai

100% legit! Used it for both my returns this year. It basically reads all those crazy codes and tells you in plain English what's happening and what to do next

Just tried it - holy crap where has this been all my life?! So much clearer than trying to decode everything myself!

Call them early morning EST time. Like right when they open. That's how I finally got through after trying for weeks. Good luck!
