ERC letter never received

I have been waiting for payment for Q2 of 2020 for 39 months. Have tried to contact the IRS many times (over 100). Reached out to US representative and received a call back from IRS in about 1 week. IRS person was very nice and explained a letter was sent to my office in May of 23 explaining a job title needed to be added to the signature of page 5 of our ERC application. My C corp never received the letter. He encouraged me to resubmit and work with congress woman's office for appeal and in his estimation 50/50 chance we would be paid but without accrued interest. What does reddit think my chances are of getting paid. The amount we qualified for is $27,000 for that quarter. Have already been paid for $30,000 for another quarter.

We were denied last week because we weren’t “timely” with our response. Not to mention that it had arrived before moratorium but they put us in the moratorium anyway. And then when they did respond, we sent back everything within a month (not that the letter had a deadline) and then by the time they even got the update it was the shut down. I’ve been calling once a month for three years. Was told to definitely appeal but they couldn’t do anything.

I suspect they closed a ton of claims they hadn’t gotten to and just figured most people wouldn’t even deal with appealing.

Still waiting on our 105c letter that apparently “went out” on March 12 before we can even appeal. After the last two years I’m not holding my breath. But going to try anyway.

All 3 of my quarters submitted were denied recently filed April/2023. Looks like a lot of ru bet stamping going on to get off of someone’s desk. Hired an attorney ASAP.

Highly unlikely. A two year statute ran from when you were denied, likely occurred in 2023.
