The only apparent time to make an appointment using the IRS phone number is if you are first in line. So, I called at 7:00 a.m. on the dot and managed to get a human being. They arranged an appointment at the Albany, NY Tax Assistance Center for this morning at 9:30 a.m. I showed up with all the necessary paperwork relating to my mother's estate. I asked the assistant (Kim) if she could give me information regarding my mother's 2019 federal taxes that I filed (as executor of her estate) in March of 2020. The Where's My Return portion of the website gives me no information. I knew more than she did. Absolutely useless. I presented her with all of my Letters Testamentary and the Oneida County Surrogate's Court documentation that clearly outlines my appointment as Fiduciary. She kept asking me for the documentation, that I had already clearly given her. I gave her my IRS Estate EIN documentation, which I could not have gotten unless I had been appointed Fiduciary. A whopping 40 minutes later, she finds a statement that "If you filed your taxes between March 23, 2019 and October 2020 and have not received a refund, please refile your tax return." Seriously?!?! All this baloney and run around, and that's all you've got after 40 minutes? If I could give 0 stars I would.

Absolutely rude impatient woman screamed at me "Don't talk over me!" and transferred me to extension with recording saying question you are calling about has a long line, call another day" total nightmare, frustrating

Absolutely useless. They hold ppls tax refunds and give no options to fix the issue but instead give phone numbers that dnt reach anyone and make ppl who actually work and do things the right way wait months for their money. The system is a broken joke and everyone who works for irs and has anything to do with federal tax refunds should seriously be disgusted with themselves.

Yes they should be able to help you out if you can get in

Why was I sent a letter that I never got

Swanda Hoback | Sep 2, 2021
Anthony Giarraputo | Sep 2, 2021

This happened to me and the letter was to verify who you are in my case it could be different for you. Your best option is to call them which is a pain in itself and see what it is about. If you haven't received any stimulus or refunds then that's what the letter is about. Be prepared to call all day as well to even get through then be on hold for an hour minimum

Mahindra M. Redx Singh | Sep 3, 2019

I believe you can, if you go to the irs website and fill in all you're info. And you should get a copy of the past year.

Do they call you and threaten you over the phone.. I think its a scam ??

Karen Julius | Sep 3, 2019
Deborah Cote | Sep 2, 2021

No! Just hang up. It's a total scam. The IRS would not call anybody and threaten them over the phone. I mean really? What's wrong with you?
