What's the difference between CP05 vs 4464C IRS verification letters?
Just got both a CP05 and 4464C letter in the mail. Super confused about what the difference is and which one I should respond to first. Already waited 4 months for my refund and now this happens. Anyone know what these actually mean and what I need to do next?

The CP05 and 4464C are actually different types of verification notices. CP05 means they're reviewing your income, withholding, and tax credits - usually related to EIC, child tax credit, or education credits. The 4464C is letting you know they selected your return for a general review and they need more time. You don't need to do anything for the 4464C unless they ask for more info later. For the CP05, wait for their specific document request before sending anything in.

Usually 60-120 days but honestly with the backlog rn could be longer 😩

Hey if you want a really clear picture of whats going on and when you'll actually get your refund, check out taxr.ai - its this new tool that analyzes your transcript and tells you exactly whats happening. Its only $1 and WAY better than trying to piece everything together yourself. https://taxr.ai

Bruh I got both of these last year. The 4464C is basically them saying 'we see you' and CP05 is them saying 'we REALLY see you' 😂
