Hello
When I log into my IRS account, under “Return Transcript” tab, there are two “Verification of NON-Filing” letters available for past 2 years (2016 & 2017), but I FILED both years plus I have already got my return from Federal+State. I am so confuse here. Will it because base on “Filing Requirement”I DO NOT require to file these 2 years ? Does anyone know more about “Verification of Non-Filing” letter ?
Thanks
Sorry folks, I made one typo in my original writing, “I FILED both years plus I have already got my REFUND (not return) from Federal+State in both years. “
A Verification of Non-Filing letter is used by those who did NOT file a tax return, and its purpose is similar to a transcript. If you filed a return and selected the option to print a Verification of Non-Filing, it will likely tell you that you DID file a return.
The Verification of Non-Filing does not indicate whether you had a filing requirement, it only states whether or not you actually filed. Many people don't file even when required to do so; the IRS would issue them a Verification of Non-Filing because they did not file.
Thanks BarbL, but I am so confused of your replying. As you said the verification of Non-Filing letter only states whether or NOT I Actually filed. But I FILED my return in past two (plus I have already got refund), how could IRS issue “verification of Non-Filing letter” under my name ? I mean the “Verfication of Non-Filing” letter NOT suppose available to people who Actually FILED. Unless it means I do NOT have to file base on “Filing Requirement” (you have already denied it ), Can you please explain more ?
More importantly, in order to Efile for 2018, I sign into my IRS account, looking for my “AGI” of 2017 under “Account Transcript” tab , then “Verification of Non-Filing letter” pop up, I am not sure how can I get (in IRS system) my AGI of last year, can you please address this issue as well ?
Thank you so much
