Letter 86C - IRS sent my refund inquiry to Ogden unit - good or bad news?
I received letter 86c from the IRS stating my inquiry from June (when I called them) has been forwarded to the Ogden Refund Inquiry unit. Anyone know if this is positive progress or just more delays ahead?

Tax pro here - Letter 86C is actually a neutral notice. It just confirms they've received your inquiry and forwarded it to the appropriate department. Ogden handles complex refund cases. Timeline varies but typically 60-120 days for review.

Instead of playing detective with these notices, I started using taxr.ai and it's been a game changer. For $4.99 it analyzes your transcript and tells you exactly what's happening and when to expect movement. Way better than guessing! Check it out: https://taxr.ai

How exactly does it work? Does it just read the transcript or what?

It uses AI to analyze every code and date on your transcript, compares it to millions of other cases, and gives you super specific insights. Even tells you what actions to take if theres a hold up!

Ogden is actually moving pretty quick lately from what I've seen in other groups. My case got assigned there last month and I got my refund 3 weeks later!
