The IRS has been behind since the start of the COVID pandemic.
Q. I’m the executor to my sister’s estate. She died in February 2020. Her accountant filed her 2020 taxes in May of 2021. My problem is I wait on hold with the IRS for hours at a time, only to get disconnected when I finally get to speak to someone. I would like to clear her estate up as soon as possible. What can I do?You’re not alone when it comes to facing IRS delays.
Kiely recommends you mail a copy of the tax return with your signature as executor and today’s date to the IRS. Include a letter explaining that this return is a copy and it is possible the IRS has not received the original, he said. “Be sure to mail the return certified mail return receipt requested,” he said. “This way you will have a tracking number and when you receive the green stamped post office card, you will know the IRS received your letter.”
