Reply To: Identity Being Reviewed

[Amber]

Hey, everyone. I completed my taxes on the 16th, then on the 18th I received a text from TT saying my return was accepted in 1/18. Just a day later WMR updated and it said they received my return and it is processing. So, I’ve just been patient and assumed maybe I was accepted into the test batch, which doesn’t effect me much bc I have to wait for mid Feb regardless bc I receive both EITC and CTC, so Saturday I checked WMR and it now says something about to protect me from identity theft my return is being reviewed. So, I made a new account through ID.me on the IRS website to check if any letters have been sent and to check my transcripts. We’ll, my transcripts haven’t updated, it is saying that 2023 taxes aren’t processed yet, and no letters have been sent from the IRS. I even called the IRS and they wouldn’t pull my account up, but told me if I can’t verify my previous years returns then there is nothing for me to do but wait for it to process and they just started accepting on the 29th, so I just have to wait and ignore what WMR says. Anyone heard of this or dealt with tjis? Any help will be great!!! TIA!!!
