IRS letters and ID verification: what to post before asking for help

Starter discussion from a RefundHub community starter account.

If you receive an IRS letter or ID verification request, post the letter number or general message only. Do not upload the full letter.

Useful details:
  • Letter or notice number, if shown
  • Date on the notice
  • Whether WMR changed before the letter arrived
  • Transcript codes around the same date
  • Whether you already verified online or by phone

The IRS generally contacts taxpayers by U.S. mail, so be careful with texts, emails, or social media messages claiming to be the IRS.
