I am on phone with IRS about my 2014 tax returns which they still have not processed. I did this call last year too. The return is flagged and I keep getting notices to re-file, but I have sent in a total of three copies. The resolution center that has not processed it, due to whatever flag it is, has also NEVER CONTACTED ME for info or questions or anything that might lead to a resolution.

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, butt kicking, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
Argh construction project next door will not end!! The noise is making me cry today.
Ohhh a supervisor has been involved. They have taken my phone # and verified W2 info.
It seems something about this return flagged something for potential identity theft. Still does not explain why no one ever contacted me.
Whatever they are doing now is supposed to prompt a call to me to resolve this within 10 days.
I could really use this $$ right now, so fingers crossed.
Ugh, sorry you guys -- my morning has been so pleasant!
They had me down for a refund over $7K and I had filed for a refund of $927!!! That is the issue, they ran something wrong. Jesusita. Give me my money. 2 years for less than $1K.
That is ridiculous. And of course they aren't going to give you any interest or a late fee on their end.
Oh man, I'm sorry, msbelle. That sounds stressful and annoying. I've had to deal with a couple of IRS disputes, and it wasn't fun. OTOH, so far I've only had more money refunded from the disputes they contacted me about.
My scariest IRS moment was having actual agents in suits show up at my door one morning. They weren't there about me though, just had some questions about one of my neighbors.
Not long after we moved to Colorado and finally sold the house in Alameda, the IRS tried to hit my ex up for taxes on the full sale price of the house. Since I used to handle his taxes, I responded with the documentation and new calculations to show that there were no taxes due.
The IRS then sent back a recalculation that was flat out wrong and contradictory, so I wrote another response, breaking down the math into math for dummies level - show you work with narratives for each step. They finally sent back an - oh, ok, no taxes due.
I really should have charged for the work I did on that. I felt rather brilliant to get through that mess.
Laughing. I was searching my inbox for something and came across a newsletter from one of our business units that I obviously never read when it came out a year or so ago. The header on the newsletter:
