Q) What is the phone number for the IRS so I may talk to someone
A) The IRS phone number is 1-800-829-1040. You can call this number to speak with an IRS representative about your tax return or other tax-related questions. The IRS is open from 7:00 a.m. to 7:00 p.m., Monday through Friday, except for federal holidays.
Here are some tips for calling the IRS:
- Be prepared to provide your name, Social Security number, and date of birth.
- Be patient. The IRS is often busy, and it may take some time to get through to a representative.
- Be clear and concise when explaining your question or issue.
- Be respectful of the IRS representative. They are just doing their job.
If you have a complex tax question, you may want to consider hiring a tax professional. A tax professional can help you understand your tax return and file it correctly.
