IRS Mail Alert: Just Got USPS Informed Delivery Notification After Waiting Since February - Anyone Else?
Finally got movement on my refund! Just received a USPS informed delivery notification showing mail coming from the IRS. Been waiting since February and this is the first update I've seen. I just checked my Informed Delivery app today (Thursday, Dec 7) at around 4:24 PM and saw that I have mail and packages arriving soon - specifically "1 Mailpieces" and "1 Packages" according to the app. The most exciting part is that there's an item from "INTERNAL REVENUE SERVICE" with status "Pre-Shipment USPS Awaiting Item" as of Dec 07 at around 3:24 PM CST. This is the first movement I've seen on my USPS Informed Delivery since I filed back in February. The notification just shows "Pre-Shipment" status, so I'm guessing they've created the shipping label but haven't dropped it off yet. Anyone else get something in the mail recently from the IRS? I'm trying not to get too excited but it's hard not to hope this is my refund and not just another delay letter. After waiting for over 10 months, I'm really anxious to see what this is! I checked all my other USPS features (Quick Tools, Send, Receive, Shop, Business, International, Help sections) but there's no additional info beyond what's in the Informed Delivery section. The app just says "Delivery Date Unknown" which is making the wait even harder!

Tax pro here. If you're getting mail from the IRS, it could be a few things: verification request, math error notice, or possibly your refund check if you didn't do direct deposit. Don't panic - most notices are easily resolvable. Keep us posted on what you receive!

Hey everyone - if youre tired of playing the guessing game with these notices, check out taxr.ai. It costs $4.99 but it analyzes your transcript and tells you exactly whats going on and what to expect next. Way better than trying to piece everything together yourself. https://taxr.ai

Check ur WMR before getting too excited. Sometimes they send random notices that have nothing to do with ur refund status js
