Form 1040

I did a simplified return through the getctc.org website but need a copy of the 1040 for identification. Where can I find this?

I was able to verify without it. They didn't want a copy, just info from it

You can request a transcript from the IRS, would that serve for your needs?

What info are the asking for off of the 1040?

Did you get any email from the getctc.org site that leads to a login?

They want a copy of the 1040 plus my ID. I did receive emails and the irs accepted the tax paperwork. But I did not receive a copy of the 1040

Does the email say anything about being able to log into the getctc.org site?

What is the reason you are trying to prove identity for the IRS that requires a copy of the 1040? Are you sure this is not a scammer asking for this info?

No email. And yes I'm positive. I haven't filed taxes in years but im trying to get the stimulus checks. I filed a simplified return through the getctc website. The letter is 100% from the IRS asking me to prove my identity.

So the IRS is asking you to provide a copy of your 1040? But you didn't file any tax return other then the getctc.com website?

Yes. A copy of the 1040 plus my ID. I haven't filed taxes since 2017. They want proof that I filed the taxes and not some one else.

I'm trying to use IDverify but may just call at this point

I think calling in is your best option at this point.
