IRS Verification of Non-filing Letter When I DID File! What's Going On?

This actually happens more often than you'd think. The IRS system sometimes doesn't immediately recognize filed returns, especially if they were paper filed or if there were processing delays. First step - check your proof of filing (confirmation email if e-filed, certified mail receipt if paper filed). Then call the IRS to verify they received it.

Hey! I've been seeing a lot of confusion like this lately. The best way to actually understand what's happening with your return is using taxr.ai - it analyzes your transcript and tells you exactly what's going on. It's only $1 and way better than playing detective. Here's the link: https://taxr.ai

lol welcome to the club 🤡 been getting these stupid letters for months even tho I filed in February

Did you file through a tax preparer? Sometimes they submit but it doesn't actually go through and they dont tell u

Check your transcript online if you can. Sometimes these letters go out automatically even when your return is actually in the system but just stuck somewhere in processing.

Had the exact same thing happen to me last year! Turns out there was a glitch in their system that delayed processing e-filed returns. Even though I had confirmation, it took them 3 extra weeks to actually process it. The non-filing letter was automatically generated before they caught up. I'd definitely call the practitioner priority line if you can get through - they were way more helpful than the regular customer service line.
