IRS return acceptance code

IRS is requiring an acceptance code for my return to process my refund.  Turbo Tax has not provided this.  How do I obtain the code?

How is the IRS telling you that you need an "acceptance code" from TurboTax?  Where are you getting that idea?

What is the letter number or letter type?   What does the letter actually say?   Is it for your 2024 return or some other year?

Letter is Notice CP5071. Identity verification is required.  I got through that part and final step is to enter the IRS return acceptance code.  Turbo Tax did not provide this and neither did IRS,

TurboTax does not issue any sort of "acceptance code".  Call the 800 number on the letter and ask the IRS what they want from you.
