I received three voluminous letters from the IRS that I don't understand. I was expecting a $1267 refund for tax year 2021, but the IRS sent only $467. The recorded line mentioned incorrect dependent names, but I am 81 years old and have no dependents. The IRS also mentioned other reasons for changing my filings. They owe me $800. Can you help? If not, can you provide a list of IRS offices with phone numbers for me to make an appointment? I have spent hours on the IRS website and called many numbers, but no one can help. Is there anything else the Accountant should know before I connect you?
