  • Respond immediately to any IRS notice; call the number provided.
  • Complete IRS Form 14039, Identity Theft Affidavit. Then print and mail or fax according to the instructions. 
  • Continue to pay your taxes and file your tax return, even if you must do so by paper.

Couldn't get to through to turbo tax or IRS. Gave up, closed my bank account & got a new one. Thanks anyway. With no tax return or turbo account it's impossible to reach anyone. Too much stress 😬
