@Byrd2566 The IRS will not tell you if anyone claimed you. But if your e-file is being rejected because your SSN is in the system, that is a big clue that someone claimed you----or maybe typo'd your SSN by accident. You cannot overcome a duplicate SSN rejection. Your return can only be filed by mail, and the IRS will sort out the duplicate use of your SSN.
When you mail a tax return, you need to attach any documents showing tax withheld, such as your W-2’s or any 1099’s. Use a mailing service that will track it, such as UPS or certified mail so you will know the IRS/state received the return.
Federal and state returns must be in separate envelopes and they are mailed to different addresses. Read the mailing instructions that print with your tax return carefully so you mail them to the right addresses.
