My story;

Around 3 years ago I sent in the form to get a tax return duplicate and the required $43 check. They deposited the check and never sent me the return. I never reached anyone on the phone. I eventually resolved the dispute I was having with other documentation. IRS owes me $43.

For future reference, you can get a tax return transcript from the IRS online, for free.

If whoever you were dealing with was refusing to accept a transcript, perhaps it would be good to name and shame them.

I needed the address and that doesn’t show it fully. But I’ll still shame the District of Columbia tax department. Truly mean people working on the phones there.
