The IRS often uses ID.me to verify your identity while using a separate mailed letter to verify that the specific tax return being filed is actually yours. Since your IP PIN protects your account and ID.me verifies your person, these state and federal letters are likely the final "spot checks" needed to release your refund, so providing those copies to the state should finally allow your refund to be processed.

I don't know about that because we got our amended return in 2026 of Jan. And then filed 2025 then said that we needed to verify  our identity

If you received a CP5447 series notice or CP5071 series notice from the IRS needs to verify your identity and the return that was filed. The IRS wants to ensure that it was you who filed the tax return.
