Question

I need help contacting the irs...the numbers on the irs website dont work does anyone know a different number?

Answer 1

What numbers aren't working? You may have received a message saying that call volumes are very high and to call back later, but I'm not aware of any numbers that don't work.

If you're calling about the stimulus payment, call 1-800-829-0582, extension 726. Otherwise, call one of the numbers listed in the other post.
