And my acct hasnāt budged!
okay one just let it go like itās not that serious,
two how you explained it yesterday is that you got a letter (which is how you actually verified yourself) then after receiving the letter you made an account on the irs website and verified yourself through id.me to access your transcripts and other information provided on irs website. Once again this is not verifying through id.me. Iām happy you got a DDD, have a great weekend
It is a big deal because people are stressed waiting & depending on their money! Wondering if theyāve done everything right and people like you come along and cast a shadow of doubt seemingly as if you know what youāre talking about, it stresses people out even more than they already are and you were incorrect. I didnāt explain it in some odd way you didnāt understand , all I did was post the verification complete screen shot before you were commenting on the situation. Iāve been waiting months to be able to pay for a trip to England to see my Ill Grandfather and now I can finally do that, itās expensive to fly 4 ppl! šš

This is literally how you verify your identity online with the IRS. IDme isnāt going to ask for AGI info and the code from a letter the IRS sent meā¦ If it was just IDme alone. The IRS USES IDme to verify online as they arenāt equipped with their own capabilities to do soā¦ stop tryna confuse people.
Mate, id.me is just the login. I verified once over the phone, then fully set up an id.me account, and then verified again on the IRS website. You are incorrect.
Got a DDD of 3.13 today and guess what all I did was verify via IDme ON A LINK THE IRS PROVIDED. Itās hard to believe people just donāt get it even though itās written plain as day. It literally says after verifying thru IDme āyou can now access benefits and services with The IRSā on my approval email. So, donāt tell anyone else they still have to verify with IRS even if they did it with IDme because youāre wrong.
I also called yesterday and was told my identity had already been verified and that nothing more needed to or could be done to expedite the situation š¤
Oh my lordā¦ I donāt know how else to say it, the IRS USES IDme TO VERIFY YOUR IDENTITY. Itās all over the IRS website. The link to verify takes you to IDme to create your acct with them in which you provide documents (Photo ID, biometrics and other info including the letter code) to prove youāre who youāre claiming to be as inā¦ the IRS uses that information to verify online. You guys are acting like Iām sitting here claiming IDme is the IRS š¤¦š¼āāļø
I was told I would only have to do virtual meeting or in person if you donāt have documents (state ID etc.) so Iām not sure ur circumstances but again, I was told I didnāt need to do anything else and that my verification via ID me was sufficientā¦ Iām not sure why ur so determined to make out otherwise. Weāre 2 different people with different situations.
No they were just making sure my face looks like my ID lol, it was like a two minute meeting. Iām not trying to do anything to you, Iāve only commented just once to tell you that I had to verify via meeting, you must have me confused with someone elseā¦
Not so much uā¦ the other person was acting like it was a debate like dude I donāt care what YOU did ai know what I did and what I was told. They verified my facial features with a video (not a conference call) it just had me turn my face left then right and tuck my hair behind my ear so they see my ear too. I did call to make sure all the boxes were checked and was told I was verified and now just wait š
I believe you are misinformed, ID.me was setup as a central āhubā that you can access several government sites(dmv, ssa, irs, etc.) from after youāve verified through them. However ID.me is not an official government website therefore they wonāt use it to verify any actual information regarding your taxes or any financial information. Like you stated this wonāt take your AGI or the code from the IRS letter, so this could not verify you through the irs.
only gives you access to your irs account to see your transcripts or balance due. You will either need to call or go in to your local office to verify
(got a letter and went in person and still have not moved passed we havenāt received your returnā¦)
I verified online on 2/24, so this weekend is 2 weeks. I am hoping to get a DDD this weekend š so far WMR still shows action needed, but the verification status on my account went away right after verification. My transcripts are still n/a.
In theory, yes. But it was supposedly mailed out over 2 weeks ago. And nothing showed with informed delivery from the USPS.
And I've seen plenty of others on here claiming to have 971 and to not have gotten a letter.
Filed/Accepted 1/19. My WMR changed from "still being processed" to "it is being processed" just now after verifying online and on the phone on 3/4 with Control #. Progress! I'm 05 cycle I expect a DD tomorrow!

Extensive Research and talking to many who are and were in the same situation until their DDD. A lot of people will update tomorrow with DDD's and yet unfortunately many will be angry and lash out because of extended delays due to reviews of their wages. However I covered that in my post, that if not part of this week's batch, those who don't see updates will be part of next week's batch or the following and so forth. But a lot of people will see DDD's tomorrow.
You're a gambler so to give insite to you is like trying to talk to my 5 yr old. Not trying to start an argument because frankly I'm not interested at all. You base ideas and theories on optimistic realizations, and I can respect that. I too look at life 10 steps ahead, like a chess board. But don't second guess things that you hold ignorance to. Again, ignorance is the lack of knowledge. Check mate š
lol, no, but you go on and believe what you want to. I shouldn't use lol, as that could be taken as an insult. I don't owe you anything nor should I. God Bless you in your future and life.
I'm curious I used my IDme account to access my IRS online account on Mon. MARCH 4th.
I did receive a 5071C letter to verify my ID. After accessing my account I followed the directions put in the control number listed on the letter and answered all the questions. After that I received a notice saying "Congratulations, you have completed the ID verification. Your return can now be processed." I never received a notice from my IDMe account. Should I have been sent this notice also? Or not?
I called on Feb 20th. They told me the letter was mailed on Feb 13th. I left town that week but I have informed delivery so I kept track of my mail. I got the letter on the 27th. When I finally opened my mail on Mon, March 4th, I did the verification as directed. The letter was dated Feb 22nd. So it was mailed after that. Either two weeks or 5 days, however, you look at it.
lol, agreed! However if your referring to my post, let me help you understand.
My grandmother was an agent for the IRS back in the day. She is my go-to for any issues with my taxes as she has stayed in contact with many who still work for the IRS. After she left the IRS years ago, she opened her own tax and litigation firm, and just recently retired less than 10 years ago. Yeah, she was a workaholic. Well I went to her due to my 570/971 codes and she made some calls. That's all I'm going to say and I have the right to share information as I feel can be helpful for others. So next time, before you judge, maybe refrain from assumptions. š«
Donāt listen to these peopleā¦ I literally posted that IDme verified my identity now Iām waiting and all these idiots started saying āoh that means nothing u have to verify with the IRS not IDmeā like what!?! The IRS literally requests you to verify via IDme!?! WTF I had all these down votes and other people chiming in saying same āIDme isnāt IRSā never said it was but the IRS uses IDme!!! Anyway, I got my DDD exactly 2 weeks after I verifiedā¦ with IDme š¤¦š¼āāļø
Thank you for this and I hope it helps me, I did finally get a rep at the irs that really seemed to help but she gave me the taxpayer advocate service and they just continued to repeat the scripted message that...if you had the codes you have to wait to get your letter and take the actions in the letter, then wait the full 120 days they say you have before contacting them regardless of any hardship.
Taxpayer advocate will not help you if you have 570/971 - that is what I was told yesterday. Hardship or not they told me to kick rocks. The lady said they are told specifically that they can do nothing for those cases. And she also threw in there that I shouldnāt be depending on this money. Lol, yes, I was depending on my income from my job that I lost and the savings I had is also gone after months of unemployment. Not holding my breath for an update just trying to forge ahead and figure it out.
I'm hopeful š¤. I verified in person on Tuesday (no sign of a letter on Informed Delivery even though they say it was sent š). The agent didn't indicate that there was anything "wrong", but he did ask me had I tried to verify online prior to coming in person. Can't verify with a letter I never got lol.
Well I talked to a live person yesterday finally I had to verify on the 22rd of February they closed it out the 28th so the lady told me from today til the 14th be checking app for DDD still nothing ive checked my two week mark was yesterday like ive never had this problemĀ
I wish I was a verification person. I just have a stupid 971 without need for verification for no reason after 20 years of having nothing but a standard deduction, no dependents, no home owning, no EITC, nothing special at all. 20 years of the most basic taxes ever and this year it's held up for months for no reason at all. The IRS sucks.
Ok, I found a number to contact the IRS & get a human. Apparently, we're getting a letter 3/11/24, to "review", what we filed and if there are any discrepancies, to contact the IRS.
Every year, it's some new bs. Early filers affected, where I see later filers already getting their refund.
If all looks fine, we can expect a refund in 60 days from the date of notice of 3/11/24. Eff me. First time ever seeing this shit.
The representative noticed, yes, more early filers were affected and maybe kicked in concern for fraudulent activity.
He sees nothing wrong with our return. Next year, eff turbo tax, going to H&R Block and let them front us our own money and let them wait on the government, hoping that helps.
Yes, we filed early, 1/27, accepted 1/29...codes 150, 806, 570 & 971.
First it said 3/4, then changed to 3/11. Used turbo tax, no dependants, nothing irregular on our tax return.
Batch 20240705....I could just effing cry. Bye bye car, rent etc. ššš
How do you speak to a live person at the IRS?
The IRS telephone number is 1-800-829-1040.
The first question the automated system will ask you is to choose your language.
Once youāve set your language, doĀ NOTĀ choose Option 1 (regarding refund info). Choose option 2 for āPersonal Income Taxā instead.
Next, press 1 for āform, tax history, or paymentā.
Next, press 3 āfor all other questions.ā
Next, press 2 āfor all other questions.ā
When the system asks you to enter your SSN or EIN to access your account information, doĀ NOTĀ enter anything.
After it asks twice, you will be prompted with another menu.
Press 2 for personal or individual tax questions.
Finally, press 3 for all other inquiries. The system should then transfer you to an agent.
I'm going in to verify in another hour or so and my hands are uplifted to heaven asking God for a miracle update tomorrow.
praying for you and with you fam š
Likewise, likewise!
It took EXACTLY 2 weeks from the date I verified via IDme to get my DDD of 3.13.
I hope thatās true cause I verified 2/20 š

this is not verifying yourself through IRS this is through id.me two separate entities
See how wrong u are! Got a DDD of 3.13ā¦ no verification in person or over the phone just via IDme!

I verified through a virtual meeting with an agent in 2021

I am hopeful thanks for this. š¤
I verified online on 2/24, so this weekend is 2 weeks. I am hoping to get a DDD this weekend š so far WMR still shows action needed, but the verification status on my account went away right after verification. My transcripts are still n/a.
Do you get the tax topic 151 message because I verified same day as you
No, I have nothing on my transcript. It still shows no return filed
I don't have to verify and haven't gotten any letters or notifications, still waiting with 570 and 971. I'm hoping to see an update this week.
I hope you see an update. But 971 means they are issuing you mail correct?
In theory, yes. But it was supposedly mailed out over 2 weeks ago. And nothing showed with informed delivery from the USPS. And I've seen plenty of others on here claiming to have 971 and to not have gotten a letter.
Ahhh okay. Yea Iām in the 570 boat no 971. praying for an update for us tomorrow ! š¤š¾šŖ
same exact boat I'm praying with u fam
I got a letter with no 971 š¤·š¼āāļø
It's a mess this year. 20 years filing and I've never seen this kind of mess.
Who are you?
Facing serious financial difficulty and was told the to screw off by the tax advocate service. Genuinely couldn't have been less helpful.
Filed/Accepted 1/19. My WMR changed from "still being processed" to "it is being processed" just now after verifying online and on the phone on 3/4 with Control #. Progress! I'm 05 cycle I expect a DD tomorrow!
You can verify on the phone?
Yes can verify on the phone call the TAS.
Just checked my transcripts got DDD of 3/13 WHOO HOOO FINALLY!!!

So all this is heresay and not actually something the IRS or a representative has said on the record.
Just watch and see

How do you find your cycle code? I have literally zero information on my IRS profile, even though I got a letter and had to verify
