I filed on the 1/17/18, it was accepted. I know they didn't start doing stuff with them until 1/29. My estimated federal refund date was 2/7/18. How accurate is it?

How can I verify my identity to IRS online?
The letter gives taxpayers two options to contact the IRS and confirm whether or not they filed the return. Taxpayers may use the idverify.irs.gov site or call a toll-free number on the letter. ... However, idverify.irs.gov is a secure, IRS-supported site that allows taxpayers to verify their identities quickly and safely.Sep 6, 2017

However when you go to the website you see this

[miacecilia1221]

You are visiting this service because you received an IRS 5071C letter. The Identity Verification Service currently is supported by our telephone customer service representatives. If you received the 5071C letter, please have this letter with you and call: 800-830-5084. The IRS needs more information from you to process your tax return accurately. You will be asked a series of questions about your identity and tax return history.

If you have not received a 5071C letter (or if you have other questions about your tax return), continue on to the IRS homepage.

It will take about 6 weeks to process and receive your refund from when you verified your identity. <a rel="nofollow" target="_blank" href="https://www.irs.gov/uac/newsroom/taxpayers-receiving-identity-verification-letter-should-use-idverif...> 14, 2017

Going forward, consider changing your withholding so that you do not have to wait for a refund at tax time.
