For most taxpayers, if you haven't yet filed your 2021 tax return, you have less than a day to figure it out. But what if you submitted your tax return and you received a message that said your return has already been received?
According to the U.S. Treasury, the IRS found 442,991 fraudulent tax returns as a result of identity fraud in 2019. The fraudulent activity kept away $1.87 billion in refunds from Americans.
Tax-related identity theft happens when someone uses your stolen personal information, like your Social Security number, to file a tax return claiming a fraudulent refund, the IRS says. If you think you are a victim of identity theft, the IRS says you should continue paying your taxes and file your tax return anyway — even if that means you'll have to file a paper return.
