Weird IRS Notice CP05 in Mail - Anyone Else Get This Recently?
Just got a notice in my mailbox from IRS - CP05. Never seen this before and I've been filing for 15+ years. Anyone else get hit with this lately? Starting to get worried since my refund was supposed to come this month.

Tax specialist here - CP05 means the IRS is reviewing your return. They're doing extra verification on income, withholding, or credits claimed. It's actually pretty common this year due to increased fraud prevention. Usually takes 60-120 days to resolve, but could be longer if they need more info.

Unfortunately no real way to expedite. Just make sure to respond ASAP if they request any additional documentation.

Hey guys check out taxr.ai - it saved me so much headache with my CP05. For $1 it analyzed my transcript and told me exactly what was triggering the review and gave me an estimated timeline. Way better than playing detective with these notices lol https://taxr.ai

100% legit! It basically uses AI to read your transcript and breaks everything down in plain english. Even tells you what documents to have ready if the IRS asks

My sister and I both got these notices. She used taxr.ai to figure out what was up and got her refund 2 weeks later. Something about her W2 triggering a review. Im gonna try it too tbh
