WMR says received but sent letter asking for more info… Anyone else??

[Sumbeach]

This is my boyfriend’s taxes, he filed single with a w2 on 2/2, no EIC or CTC.
His transcripts show no return filed and WMR says “We received your tax return and sent you a letter requesting more information” and haven’t seen a letter. His WMR changed to that last Friday.
Does anyone else have this on their WMR?? I haven’t seen a post about it, worried he’s not gonna get it now.

So confused- filed 1/29 received letter 2/13 faxed requested info same day and 2/14 went back to processing and then 2/23 WMR went to verify identity tried and took said couldn’t help me called and answered so many question to be told I didn’t need to do that but to give 60 days for the 2/14 information to process and to call back after 4/14 if no update …. I don’t know what is going on this year

Ok so, I checked the transcripts today and no updates although im weekly. I wasn’t really expecting anything but checked anyway. Last year timeline: I filed last week in January and got my refund in April. Had to fax in the W2s as well which I did mid February… I would expect same timeframe this year too

[Angie]

@ Ted see the same for me very next day it said received my information requested and I am weekly as well so I am hoping for updates tomorrow…. Good luck

[Ted]

So, I faxed the W2s to IRS yesterday morning and today the WMR status changed to “received and the return is being processed” type of message. They are moving quick I must say.
I’ll check my transcripts tomorrow since im a weekly to see if there are any updates.

[Angie]

Well no updates this morning , so i am hoping Friday which is suppose to be another big day for transcript updates for many years i have always been 05 with no update to my transcript i am guessing i am still the same 05 which is tonight’s update … Fingers crossed

@Ted yes letter mailed 2/9 received the letter 2/13 and when i check back on 2/14 it had that message we have received the requested information and are now processing your return. Yes, i said the same thing that was pretty fast but i have no updates to transcript but my balance 2023 says if you requested an adjustment i cant request information until the transaction is complete and before it said no return filed so i am hoping its moving and Thursday i have an update

[Ted]

Hi Angie, just to understand exactly… you got the letter on 02/13 and faxed them what they wanted and on 02/14 the status changed to “received and being processed “? That’s pretty quick, one day!

[Angie]

This is so frustrating I wish I knew how long

[Angie]

Filed 1/29 and then system said need more infor got letter 2/13 and 2/14 it change to received and being processed. Today I was hoping for an update but no update online say no return filed and 2023 transcript at bottom are blank, hope it doesn’t take long and I am hoping I am in updates for Thursday…. I did check balance for 2023 online and it does say an adjustment is happening .. hopefully when it turns to 0.00 it’s completed .

[Ted]

Ok, so here is an update. Today I got the letter from IRS asking to fax copies of my W2s to verify income and overpayment into the social security over the max yearly allowed by law.
As of right now my 2 bottom transcripts are blank and top 2 are N/A. The letter says they should process my return in 8 weeks. Last year they did it sooner, like 5 weeks or so. We’ll see… the waiting game begins.

I’ve had this and did receive my letter. It was a 12c letter in my case requesting info for my 1095a and missing 8962 form. I faxed all info and yesterday my wmr updated to we received requested info and is processing my return. My bars are back. I really just hope that’s a good sign. Transcript top 2 still has n/a

[Sumbeach]

Has anyone else gotten this on their WMR tho??
Is that why y’all think it’s id verify, I’ve been searching groups on Facebook and on here and so far I haven’t seen anyone else with it??
It’s definitely to verify something. Just wish the letter would get here. 😭😭

[Sumbeach]

{Part 2- sorry so long} So I understand the point, BUT on that phone call you are asked several questions only you would know the answer to, so the letter seems redundant to me. I got my refund a week n a half/2 weeks later. I think my transcripts updated the next week and it was in my account 5 days after that…. Waiting for the letter is what takes the longest with these stupid verify your identity holds.

[Sumbeach]

@whitewolf
I had to do this last year too. I called and they said I had to wait for the letter but they would send another (this was last year)
I got that letter like 5 business days later and verified over the phone, I chitchatted with the lady and she never asked me for the damn number on the letter, so the letter was redundant really… It’s just another way for them to prove that the Name on the refund is at the Address of the refund by sending a letter with a code.

[WhiteWolf]

NO LETTERS! I’m a Pather, accepted 1/22, Eitc, Actc. WMR accepted til 1/27, then “Action Req’d, verify Identity”. Ironically, verifying thru ID.me doesn’t work, even though I’m established there. Transcripts are blank, no return filed. Agent states letter sent on 1/29. Nothing. I’m getting a tax advocate next week if no movement.

[Kat]

Don’t worry. From what I’ve seen/heard it doesn’t actually take that long 99% of the time. It’s usually just a few days after you do your ID verify. The extra wait sucks but it should be fairly quick.

[Katie]

It’s probably ID verification. Seems to be doing more of that this year. We have to do ours as well and still waiting on letter. They said letter takes about 3 weeks and then 3-9 weeks for processing after that. It freaking sucks! Still waiting on my letter and we filed about three weeks ago!
