It has been about 8 weeks since I e-filed and I still haven’t received my return. All I can get are the standard anwers of “your return is being processed” and all the reasons why it might be under review. I want to be able to contact someone that can look into why it is under review. Is there some way I can get a direct answer from a live person? The phone number that is suggested says they are not taking live calls right now. Is there a way to get an email response?
You'll need to sign in or create an account to connect with an expert.
When the IRS finally comes back to answering the phones, use this procedure -
(No the IRS does not email or telephone)
Call the IRS: 1-800-829-1040 hours 7 AM - 7 PM local time Monday-Friday
When calling the IRS do NOT choose the first option re: "Refund", or it will send you to an automated phone line.
So after first choosing your language, then do NOT choose Option 1 (refund info). Choose option 2 for "personal income tax" instead.
Then press 1 for "form, tax history, or payment".
Then press 3 "for all other questions."
Then press 2 "for all other questions."
- When it asks you to enter your SSN or EIN to access your account information, don't enter anything.
- After it asks twice, you will get another menu.
Press 2 for personal or individual tax questions.
Then press 4 for all other inquiries
It should then transfer you to an agent.
@DoninGA Thank you. I will try this if I don't receive it before they return to the office. Let's hope I do!
