    OMG!!! FINALLY!!!!

      Just FYI!!!! – I filed my 2018 federal income taxes on January 28, 2019 and was accepted by the IRS on January 28, 2019. My WMR updated to PATH. On February 18,2019, my transcripts updated to Refund Freeze Code 810 and 420 Examination of Tax Return Code. My WMR updated from Path Act Hold to TAKE ACTION “Your Return is Being Reviewed” with Tax Topic 151 Code and 1242 Reference Number Code. I called the IRS and was told I would receive a letter but do not show any problems at this time. After waiting for about 2 weeks, I called the IRS back because still had not gotten any letters, notices, or updates. Was again told a letter had been sent out over 2 weeks ago and I don’t need to do anything at this time. This went on until April 2019. I AGAIN called the IRS was told AGAIN that I had been sent a letter, but could not see what the letter indicated so the rep suggested that I just send in information proving HOH, EIC, Self Employment, Dependents, ETC….. I faxed in the information I thought may be requested. About 30days later, I still did not get any letters or updates, so I called again and was given same information as before. That rep asked me why did I fax in information if I had not gotten any letters. I explained that previous rep advised me to send in the information. So, its now May 2019, and I FINALLY get my AUDIT Package in the mail basically requesting proof of EVERYTHING like the orginal rep advised me they would do or most of my Credits would be DISSALOWED and I would NOT be getting my Refund. 30 days, I got a letter letting me know that did get my Faxed Paper Work and it would take up to 60days for Review. 90 days past, still no updates. In September 2019, got another letter advising they need more Review Time and it would another 60days. My TRANSCRIPTS have NOT Changed SINCE 02/2019. So, now its December 2019 and WMR FINALLY UPDATED FROM “BEING REVIEWED” to “RECEIVED” with 1 BAR and TAX TOPIC 152 on 12/14/2019. However, after that, WMR said NO INFORMATION WAS AVAILABLE FOR MY RETURN, SO HERE I GO STILL WAITING AGAIN FOR ANY TYPES OF UPDATES/REFUNDS— THEN OMG!!!!!!!, I checked WMR this morning like I have done EVERYDAY and WITHOUT ANY UPDATED LETTERS/NOTICES WMR IS NOW SHOWING MY REFUND APPROVED WITH AN INTEREST AMOUNT ADDED TO MY ORIGINAL REFUND AMOUNT WITH A CHECK DATE OF FEBRUARY 14, 2020!!! MOST IMPORTANT THING I LEARNED DURNING THIS AUDIT WAS “EVERY TIME YOU CALL THE IRS EXAMINATION CENTER FOR UPDATES FROM A LIVE PERSON< YOUR FILED IS PULLED AND PLACED BACK TO THE BOTTOM OF THE PILE< WHICH WILL DELAY YOUR REVIEW”

              Congrats are in order – pop the Champagne! Wow, I always tell people DO NOT CALL the IRS. Just wait… They never listen. I do advise calling after some time, but not before any time given, not if you’ve not received a letter, etc! And calling repeatedly can set off bells – FYI.

              Happy Valentines day to you, Chaching$
