Should my 2023 and 2024 tax printouts include everything required by the new CP5071 from the Federal Government ?

Do you have experience with the new CP5071 federal form?

I HAVE TO VERIFY MY IDENTITY

 

 

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.

I printed a bunch of stuff for an IRS visit, as instructed. it was a pain.

the agent looked at none of it.

She checked my driver's license, and I was verified. We had a nice chat.
