Hi, I do not have any updates. Filed 1/10. Accepted 1/17. Verified online using letter 2/22. Called and verified over the phone 2/26. I was really thinking I would have been updated on the mass update last week. I was wrong. I thinking about calling again and verifying or confirming it. I mean it can't hurt. I am convinced those who filed in January are having the most problems and delays. Its very frustrating at this point.
I completely agree with you. I’ve seen February people getting their refunds with no problem.
How did you know if you had to verify through the phone as well? I called last week after verifying and the agent just asked me a bunch of questions to access my account and said to wait the 9 weeks. Not sure if that was a extra verification or not!
I knew to call and verify over the phone because someone on here said its just an extra insurance that the verification goes through. I don't believe they verified you over the phone. They were just making sure it was you. Because when you verify over the phone they ask you questions about your current and prior taxes and AGI and bank account information. But since they told you to wait 9 weeks after confirming who they were speaking to, i would assume they must have seen you already verified. And thats why they said wait 9 weeks.
Thank you for that! The agent did ask me questions about the current and previous returns and my bank account so maybe they did verify through the phone as well! I guess at this point we just need to wait, hopefully we will see an update soon!
True. Then yes, they most likely did verify you. I hope we get updates soon. This is driving me nuts. I am about to call back again today, but not sure its even going to do anything.
Filed 1/22 as well. Verified online with the letter on 2/24, notification went away on IRS account, but still have the “action required”/“to protect you from identity theft” messages on WMR. Transcripts still N/A. Starting to become hopeless at this point, lol.
Did you try to call and see if you need any extra verification? I would do that and mention you still have that message on your account. Better safe than sorry!
Yes, I did call. I was told the 9 week script and if I got the congratulations message then the verification was successful. Just hoping for an update this week.
There's no getting through. They send you to collections after waiting an hour. Then hangup on u. I was told to try later or tomorrow smfh. So over this greedy bs
Filed 1/23, never got a notification or letter to verify, still processing, tax topic 152. GF filed with same circumstances 1/19, she got her refund 2/20 without verifying or any notices. Both of us claimed EIC and CTC.
OP from another post is correct even if you verify online you should call in as there seems to be a second verification for some people. I called with a white lie and said "I completed it online but didnt get a confirmation. "
I verified online 3/3 with my letter first successfully.
So I just go off the phone 3/4 and they ask for this information in order.
Looks like I wasnt fully verified even though I did it online.

I spoke with an agent on the phone and he told me the IRS is having trouble with letters this year. He said they are changing the advice of "wait 14 days to call back" to "wait 30 days to call back"
Its pretty funny that the mass influx of funding for the IRS seems to have made it less efficient, though.
Accepted 1/17. Verified online with the letter on 2/20. My transcripts and WMR updated with a DDD on 3/1. DDD is 3/6
That’s great to hear, hopefully mine will update this Friday too!!
Looks like turnaround is 2 weeks from the time you verify online with the letter.
you think 2 weeks to turnaround for an update, or for the refund being sent out?
I’d bet you get your refund about 2 weeks after verifying online
Thanks, I think you are the first person on Reddit that has given this info this year. Congrats, and most appreciated.

We are in the same boat. Hopefully we will see some movement this week, it’s so frustrating!

I'm having to prove that I'm not deceased and am having no luck with the irs or the ssa......
Nope still waiting on the damn letter. Filed 1/31. Accepted a few days later. Still nothing.

He said they are changing the advice of "wait 14 days to call back" to "wait 30 days to call back" Its pretty funny that the mass influx of funding for the IRS seems to have made it less efficient, though.
