WMR says Take Action and Reference Code 1541

[PhickDiva]

This will now be the third IRS rep I’ve spoken to in 3 weeks.

After a 26 minute wait to speak to someone, and a 5 minutes wait after THAT for the rep to “look over my account,” I was told that the 1541 means I was “just a random pull.” She could see where I got the 4464C letter saying that I was under review for no particular reason, and as of today, had no errors/flags on my return for anything. I don’t need to verify ID, fill out any paperwork, resubmit my return, or correct/amend anything. Nothing needs to be done. The review itself could take up to 4-6 weeks total before I see my refund, and it’s already been 3. She said there were no notes about any further letters being mailed out. If they did need me to do anything, they would notify me via mail — but because she saw nothing in the system indicating so, she said I should “take that as a good sign.” Yet again, I was advised to keep checking WMR daily for updates.
