IRS Performance
September 28, 2023

My experience makes me wonder if the current administration's budget request for 87,000 IRS agents was intended to replace the currently employed 87,000 most incompetent agents. Not a bad idea!

ID verification
August 29, 2023

I lost my Id password and was going through the password reset. I tried to use my cell phone, unsuccessfully to verify my Id. After approximately 5 tries, I was sent to an agent. I was dubious about going through that process. It was much simpler and took less time. In retrospect
I would have gone directly to that option!

Carol's
August 28, 2023

I tried to do it myself but had trouble with my computer or the program freezing up on me and wouldn't let me continue. So, I think it would be a great asset if I would be more computer savvy. As an older adult, I don't know a lot about the new programs and I just got really frustrated and finally went to the Pa Career Center and got help from a very intelligent young man. Without him, I don't think I could have done it.
