To the extent one can, ALWAYS structure to have to send in a check.
Words to live by.
[Not my case this year, because reasons, but perhaps next year...]
Having to show ID is racist.
We want our America, we worked for our America, it’s our America and we want it back!
No America for those who don’t show an ID.
Same W-2s, same names, same address, same number of dependents, same everything all the way down the line.
But suddenly it was a problem.
We will see what happens this year. State has already refunded our $12.68. Not a word from federal.
Houston IRS office forced to close early after fight breaks out: ‘I ain’t doing no playing’
“I want my money; I work for this money, it’s my money, and I want it now”
Maybe that person should adjust their witholding payments, so that they don’t pay the IRS so much.
Government just making sure that the people know who their masters are.
E-filing seems to avoid stuff like this for many people.
While in line they may have been passed by courtesy buses filled with illegals going back to their hotel rooms to watch streaming movies. Tax paid.
Newsweek, Feb. 2, 2024
“The U.S. sees $150.7 billion yearly cost from illegal immigration, with policy shifts increasing taxpayer burden.”
ID required to receive a tax refund, but not to vote. If ID were required to vote, only real people could vote, just like only real people should receive tax refunds. Making people come in person to collect a refund check also helps the Deep State know where people are this year so it will be less suspicious when they vote for them.
There are multiple users of he same SSAN. The IRS is trying to determine which one is the real American -usually when a significant return is expected.. I had something like this when I had a large return coming. She asked questions about my pension distributions, what I filed two or three years an the light bulb clicked and she said, “your return will be issued in 10 days.’
This is also part of the big brother scheme to get information on everybody to go onto the big database.
Different sites are showing lines that were formed Saturday at the Atlanta IRS office in support of this story. However, the IRS had “face-to-face” events at several of their offices nationwide to allow taxpayers to meet with an agent personally in order to try to solve tax problems.
I’m not sure why so many Atlanta filers had tax problems that required a personal meeting. It’s possible that there is so much tax fraud in the city that some people got caught up in one of the stolen ID scams that happen at this time of the year. Anyway, not ALL of the people there received a letter informing them they must prove who they are. Some were there for other tax problems.
They may be applying pressure to get the remaining 87,000 new IRS agents approved and hired.
That or there are so many illegals stealing SSNs that they really do need to be sure.

So… You have to show ID and verify your identity to get your own money back from the IRS but not to vote?
I guess I’m glad I write a check. I’d not want to go through waiting hours for a refund.
I filed on time but didn’t have the AGI from last year and had forgotten whatever 5 digit PIN I made (I was in a hurry last year and rushed because I was using a friend’s computer)
I didn’t know he had gotten a new computer - so I had an e-file rejected - I’m just going to print it off with the reject code and mail it in within the 5-day grace period.
I’m not getting a refund and I don’t owe anything, so it’s all good.
BTW, a friend sent me video of this line several days ago - WOW
Whadayaknow. They can get ID after all!
