So, I e filed my return Jan 3rd 2020. It is now August 16, 2020 and it still says Tax Topic 152 on my refund status. I obviously cant get ahold of anyone. What gives?
In the future do not be in such a hurry to file your tax return. The IRS does not start accepting any type of tax return until late January of each tax year. File your return in February or March.
Call the IRS: 1-800-829-1040 hours 7 AM - 7 PM local time Monday-Friday
When calling the IRS do NOT choose the first option re: "Refund", or it will send you to an automated phone line.
So after first choosing your language, then do NOT choose Option 1 (refund info). Choose option 2 for "personal income tax" instead.
Then press 1 for "form, tax history, or payment".
Then press 3 "for all other questions."
Then press 2 "for all other questions."
- When it asks you to enter your SSN or EIN to access your account information, don't enter anything.
- After it asks twice, you will get another menu.
Press 2 for personal or individual tax questions.
Then press 4 for all other inquiries
It should then transfer you to an agent.
