Hi,

I received a letter saying "Your account shows an overpayment of ...... You will receive a refund in 4 to 8 weeks. "

I'm very sure I didn't overpay. I paid exactly the amount I owed on my 2022 tax return via credit card. I logged into my IRS account and saw the amount IRS claimed I overpaid was marked as "Check/Money Order" and EFT number is "Unavailable", whereas all other credit card payments are normal.

Did the IRS make a mistake? If so, how can I correct them?
