In my opinion and from experience when I filed tax return last February it was an issue. The IRS found some issue mismatch regards to a child as child tax credit was reported; yet have always claimed my child and never had an issue. I know for sure all of my and my child info was correct but what I was told by IRS they fixed things on their end. It is beyond confusing and I’m blaming TurboTax not catching an error or flagging it. I followed all steps in full. After so many years filing w TurboTax I doubt I’ll do it this year online with them. Someone said nothing to do w the TurboTax. I highly doubt that after I got an official letter from IRS. So who and why there is mismatch or reason for extra validation process? I’m not sure what to think but I feel that this year I don’t want to file online on my own and see.
Last time it delayed refund and caused such confusion and IRS to review, be flagged and fix. I didn’t have to amend. So, if this is happening only w TurboTax or not I’m not sure. Does it mean it doesn’t have an error for some but for sure it means it is going through extra validation process w the IRS. I would rather pay an accountant in person for a fee to file it for me and see what happens and if the same issue appears. I wonder if people are getting this error a lot this year filing?
