After you file

If you ignored a letter from the IRS you are not going to get your refund.   Did they request that you verify your identity?   TurboTax gets no information from the IRS after you file your tax return.  TurboTax cannot help you  verify your identity.  You have to follow the instructions from the IRS.

 

Sometimes the IRS chooses returns randomly to request verification of identity and sometimes there is something on the return that triggers the request.  No matter why the IRS has required you to verify your identity, you need to follow their instructions in order to receive your refund.  If you do not verify your identity you will not get your refund.
