What is IRS Letter 474C for 2023 return? Anyone received one?

Tax pro here - A 474C letter is basically the IRS asking for more verification of your identity. They send these out when something on your return triggers their security filters. You'll need to verify either online at id.me or call the number on the letter when you get it. Don't worry too much, it's pretty common these days with all the identity theft going around.

Hey, instead of waiting around trying to piece together whats happening, you should try taxr.ai - it analyzes your transcript and tells you exactly what's going on and what to expect. Costs like $5 but saved me weeks of stress. https://taxr.ai

ugh im in the same boat. been waiting 2 months for this stupid letter smh

Bruh the IRS is such a joke these days. Everything takes 10x longer than it should 🤡

make sure u check ur old addresses if u moved recently. they dont always forward these letters

just went thru this! finally got my refund after verifying. took about 2.5 months total but at least it came thru

I got a 474C letter about 6 months ago for my 2022 return. The whole process was actually pretty straightforward once I got the letter - you can verify online through ID.me or call the number they give you. I chose the online route and it took maybe 20 minutes to upload my documents and verify my identity. The hardest part is honestly just waiting for the letter to arrive in the first place! But once you complete the verification, your return should process normally. Hope this helps ease some of your worries!
