My tax return is being held so the IRS can review it. The letter says they want to verify several things including “Itemized Deductions”!
I use the standard deduction.
I’m guessing it has to do with my voter registration as a republican.
Anyone else experiencing this?
Cheers!
Got my refund last week both state and federal. Haven’t been audited since I began to file them when I was 16 years old.
Not this year. But surprise. They “reviewed” all mine from 2019 and said I owed $18k. Of course it will cost me $20k to challenge it. I wonder how many other Trump voters got the same treatment after registering as a Republican voter?
They better start auditing those bass turds wading the Rio Grande. They are making MILLIONS. Since the RATS have awarded them every right the normal American has, the bass tards should have the rights to be taxed and audited.
How long ago did you submit it? I don’t do my Fed’l taxes online. I always do the paper form. I have nothing to claim, take the standard deduction too, single, no dependents. Two years ago, it took six months for me to get my lousy refund. It wasn’t held up for review. It just took them that long to get to it. Last year I got my return within a reasonable amount of time. It’s been six weeks since I mailed 2023’s forms in. I’ve checked “Where’s my refund?” but it continually says I must have made an error when submitting the info to the site. That likely means they just haven’t processed it yet.
Yup same here. I have nothing else to say about it. At least nothing I want a record of.
Yes efiled via accounting firm 2/10. Refund being held. I signed up for iD.me and got my transcript for 2023. There are codes on there you can look up. I have a 970. I called tax irs tax advocate. I am getting a CP05 letter (she read it to me). It states refund being held for review and I don’t need to anything at this time. No letter received yet. My income was drastically reduced when I lost my husband in 2022. It may be that reason. Anyways was told it could take 120 days. I also learned verification of income is not in system until July. It’s all based on honor system for refunds, etc.
Never have I had refund reviewed, held until this year. My Michigan refund was held as well. I got letter stating I had to send all my tax docs I efiled with to them. I uploaded them weeks ago. Just got Michigan refund in my account.
Sign up for ID.me account and it will give you access to all your tax info over periods of years.
I find it strange both Michigan and IRS held my refund this year
I just had SS income, small amount from Fidelity and W-2 for part time job. Yet I am being reviewed.
I used tax accounting service that I used in the past. Never an issue until this year. With small refund and income, I am being reviewed.
They did me. SS income, part time job income and small withdrawal from Fidelity. Did standard deduction. Refund being with-held for review.
Create an ID.me account and you can get access to all your tax transcripts including I found out via irs tax advocate who advised me to do this. It will give you codes of what is happening. I am waiting for a CP05 LETTER. I haven’t rec’d yet but she read it to me over the phone. .Just says being reviewed and I don’t have to do anything right now.
See post #25 by tired&retired. Personnel shortages at the IRS.
No problem here. They processed my return in 5 days. Everyone’s situation is different.
Maybe they are checking for RMD on the Fidelity account?
may have something to do with your social credit score
Lot of truth in that, and makes perfect sense.
Thanks, but no thanks. I don't sign on for stuff like that. I keep copies of all my tax returns every year, so I know exactly what I've got coming back. My returns have never been wrong, or been adjusted by the IRS. They just like to sit on your money to make interest off it, then when they do finally send it and have to pay you interest on it, you then have to include that interest on your next return. For 2022, I had to include $12.08 they paid me on interest because they sat on my return for six months. There's a method to their corruption.
That's been their excuse since Joe stole the election.
22 years ago, I got two letters from the IRS asking me to sign a piece of paper asking me to agree to an imputed amount of income.
I didn’t sign either one. Called the IRS and spoke with what seemed to be a young man. I asked him to cite the STATUTE that required me in my situation to pay an income tax; not an IRS regulation because IRS regs are not the law. Laws are enacted by Congress, not the IRS. He had no answer or other response. He asked me if I was serious. I assured him I was.
Told him I know he has to collect a certain amount of money, I apparently convinced him I wasn’t worth the effort even if I did owe taxes; which I didn’t.
Haven’t heard from the IRS in the last 22 years.
I submitted on 1/27 through TurboTax. I’ve never had an issue before. The letter seems pretty generic. It states they may looking at four different things in my return and only one of the four applied to me - income. The rest don’t even apply.
I only have one employer and took some cash from a 401k. Both were included. I don’t have any other sources of income.
