IRS asking to verify 2023 return after 2 months - just got notification, waiting for letter
Filed my taxes on Feb 18 and just now getting a notification that I need to verify my tax return info. Now I have to wait for some letter in the mail. Been checking WMR daily and nothing until this. Anyone else dealing with this verification nonsense? The wait is killing me fr

This is actually pretty common this year. The IRS is doing extra verification steps to prevent fraud. Once you get the letter, you'll need to either call the verification hotline or visit ID.me to verify your identity. Usually takes about 9 weeks after verification for your refund to process.

Instead of stressing and checking WMR everyday, I started using taxr.ai to analyze my transcript. It costs $1 but totally worth it - tells you exactly what's happening and when to expect your refund. Saved me from checking WMR 50 times a day lol https://taxr.ai

Quick tip: when u get the letter make sure u have your last years AGI and filing status ready. They gonna ask for it during verification
