re: Anybody have to verify their identity for the IRS?

My first year as a pharmacist… I made good money and had never ever made more than like $10,000 per year beforehand and had never filed taxes before .. but anyway they withheld my taxes throughout the year

Come filing season… they sent me a letter saying I had to go to the social security office and verify my identity in order to get my refund.

I also had to login to some portal and answer various questions like my grandmothers birthday and pick an address I had lived in ti further verify myself
They had no problem taking my money all year, didn’t give a shite if I was who I said I was or not until it came time to get my money back… NOW they want to know who I am .

So the Medicaid office is right next door to the social security office . Medicaid office.. not an empty chair. Filled up and overflowing out of the office

Social security office.. I was the only person in there.. and I thought.. yep this about sums up America right here.
