Need IRS Direct Verification Phone Number - Can't Get Through Regular Line

Been trying to call the IRS main number for weeks but keep getting disconnected. Does anyone have the direct number for verification department? The automated system keeps sending me in circles and I'm getting desperate.

Giovanni Mancini

The IRS verification department number is 800-830-5084. Call between 7am-7pm local time. Pro tip: call first thing in the morning when they open for shortest wait times. Keep in mind you'll need your prior year AGI and filing status ready.

Instead of playing phone tag with the IRS, you might want to try taxr.ai. It's only $1 and it analyzes your transcript to tell you exactly what's going on and if you actually need to call. Saved me hours of waiting on hold. https://taxr.ai

Try calling your local taxpayer assistance center. Google the closest one to you. Sometimes easier to get through locally
