After you file

Catina,

 

Took only a short time to call IRS at 730am EST.

 

You're ABSOLUTELY right!  I have to --

 

"Unfortunately your only option will be to paper file your return.  I would also suggest you Complete IRS Form 14039, Identity Theft Affidavit and mail it along with your return."

 

Should I fill out 14039 on paper or HERE online -- hIttps://apps.irs.gov/app/digital-mailroom/dmaf/f14039/

 

Is 14039 and better in the same envelope with the 1040.  I can get them the fraud form quicker if I complete it online...

 

Someone DID file a fraudulent return, but IRS rejected that return and they want a mailed copy...
