I filed my taxes last year with Turbotax. I received notification that everything was ok and my state tax refund came  immediately. I still have not received my federal tax check. I have tried every number and web site that I can find and they all ask the same thing questions, name, last 4 digits of social security and the amount of the  refund. I would like to speak to a person. What can I do?

    Call the IRS: 1-800-829-1040 hours 7 AM - 7 PM local time Monday-Friday
    When calling the IRS do NOT choose the first option re: "Refund", or it will send you to an automated phone line.
    So after first choosing your language, then do NOT choose Option 1 (refund info). Choose option 2 for "personal income tax" instead.
    Then press 1 for "form, tax history, or payment".
    Then press 3 "for all other questions."
    Then press 2 "for all other questions."
    - When it asks you to enter your SSN or EIN to access your account information, don't enter anything.
    - After it asks twice, you will get another menu.

    Press 2 for personal or individual tax questions.
    Then press 4 for all other inquiries
    It should then transfer you to an agent.

    I tried these numbers and was told by the "robot" that agents no longer answer the phone and to go to the website for information!
