Reply To: Where’s My Letter Watch Party!!

Who wants to add their two cents? What a nightmare! I’m starting to think the “5071c identify yourself letter” is just a fable, or a glitch in the matrix. I find it IRONIC that the IRS will accept a random, computer-generated number to prove my identity, rather than q’s such as Where was your first job in 1986? What street did you grow up on? Mother’s middle name, etc. Nope. A random number that could be stolen from my mailbox. Or flew out the back of a truck. So, whomever finds my missing letters gets my refund??
Accepted 1/22, verify identity 1/27 on wmr. Two letters sent, haven’t received anything. Established IRS acct and ID.me. Nearest in-person place 102miles away, and appt 6 weeks out. Something isn’t right here. Anyone actually get any letters? When? What planet are they mailed from? Rant on!

⭐FINAL UPDATE
Filed 1/18.
Accepted 1/22.
WMR= “Verify Identity” 1/29.
Letter saga above in topic starter…received 2/26.
Verified online w/letter 2/26.
Transcripts updated this am= 846 on 3/13.
Transcripts were blank or n/a until this am= 3/8
I’m cycle code 20241005.
⭐IMPORTANT! WMR still says “Verify your identity”. My IRS account still says “Verify, your return has not been processed”.
Good luck everyone, see you next year!
