After you file

Just to clarify, do you suspect someone filed a fraudulent tax return using your information or has someone accessed your TurboTax account?

 

If you suspect you've been a victim of stolen identity tax refund fraud, the IRS is there to help you. It recommends that you take these steps immediately:

  • Answer any IRS written notice you receive by calling the number provided on the notice or visiting IDVerify.irs.gov.
  • Fill out IRS Form 14039, Identity Theft Affidavit and attach it to your tax return.
  • File tax returns and pay your taxes even as the fraud is being resolved.
  • File a complaint with the FTC at identitytheft.gov.
  • Place a fraud alert on your credit records by phoning one of the three principal credit agencies.
