One IRS resource that can help is Online Account. This is the fastest and easiest way to see account information such as estimated tax payments, prior year adjusted gross income and economic impact payment amounts. Taxpayers can also request a tax transcript. There are five types of transcripts. Taxpayers should review each transcript type to determine which one best meets their needs. IRS transcripts are also a good way to check for fraudulent activity. However, ordering a transcript will not help them find out when they will get their refund. Where's My Refund? provides the most up-to-date details about whether a tax return has been received and if the IRS has approved or sent the refund. To protect taxpayers' identities, the transcripts partially hide personally identifiable information such as names, addresses and Social Security numbers. All financial entries are fully visible. There are three ways taxpayers can get transcripts: Online. People can view their tax records in their Online Account. From there, they can visit Get Transcript Online to view, print, or download all transcript types. By mail.
