This no longer works. The IRS system has wised up. You will get a message at the end saying that they are have too many calls and to try another time.
I realize the following is anecdotal, but I have called a couple of times in the last few weeks using those steps, and found that for me it was best to call just before closing time--about 6:58 PM and go through those steps. I figured a lot of folks would not call that close to closing, and that if I was one of the last to get into the queue, they would finish off all the people who were in the queue at closing time. And luckily, my hunch worked for me. Still had to wait about 25 minutes.
That being said, while they are hard to reach on any given day, today April 18, 2022, is likely one of their busiest days of the year.
