WMR says Take Action and Reference Code 1541

[MandiJ]

I had the same 1541 code and called and was told to wait for a letter. I decided to try my luck and call back and was told that I hadn’t filed my 2014 taxes and that my 2017 refund was on hold (they called it CP63) until I filed.They gave me this number 1-866-897-3315 and they are open from 8am-8pm est, I believe. Its the hold department. To this day I still haven’t received a letter to tell me what year, or why its a hold. However, I did the tax forms and sent them overnight and was told that once they look at them and update they will release my 2017 refund if I don’t owe any money, and then process the 2014 return.
Even if you arent sure its worth the call to check. it may save you weeks of time.
