After you file

@Tisha2014 This is random selection and computer screening. During a 45 day review, the IRS is generally examining any number of items reported on your return typically using their own records - such as W-2 information, dependents listed, etc. This does not necessarily indicate a problem with any information on your return.  A certain number of these types of reviews are done at random.   

 

If the IRS needs additional information from you, they will request it in writing.  These requests are always by mail - please do not respond to any e-mail requests for information, as these will not be from the IRS.  

 

Unless you receive a request from the IRS for more information, there isn't anything that you need to do during this time period.
