Dear Sirs,

I received a text message stating that my federal return was rejected by IRS. Message was from 606-82 whoever that is. It also stated to check my email but have received no email on further instructions to correct or fix the problem. I feel this is some sort of phishing scam. Please email me on the true status of my return. Thank you ahead of time for your attention regarding this matter. 

 

Respectfully submitted,

Filiberto X Carrillo

    This is actually not a phishing scam. TurboTax uses the number 60682, to send text alerts to its customers. If you would like to no longer receive text alerts, you can text back with the message STOP or you can change how you receive messages in your TurboTax account.

    Hello,

    I received a response as to the validity of the text message; however, I need to know if my federal tax return has been fixed after its rejection. What do I need to do if anything to fix this issue? Please let me know with any further instructions. Thank you for your attention regarding this matter.

    You should have received an email letting you know if your return was accepted after you fixed the errors from the rejection. If you did not receive it, you may want to check your junk/spam folder.

    You can also check your e-file status by following the steps in the below TurboTax FAQ:
