Get your taxes done using TurboTax

It is a waiting game and I understand. When assisting someone with a similar situation it was over two years for resolution with correspondence.

 

You have completed everything you can. I would advise to hold for now because it is taking months to get a response from the IRS at this time without reason.  

 

Prepare and have ready: A complete copy of your tax return, signed but with the words 'Possible Duplicate' at the top.  Include the original W-2 and the W-2C. Be sure to include your 5071c letter and have it all ready to mail to the address on the letter.  Talk to your Congressman's office to see if they will assist.

No, do not amend because you are not changing any income, deductions or credits on your return. This can delay even longer while they sort it our.
