Verifying Your Individual Income Tax Return

If you receive an Identity Verification Letter or a PIN Verification Letter from the department, we need additional information from you to verify that a return wasn’t fraudulently filed on your behalf. We cannot process your refund until you provide us with this information. Please follow the instructions on the letter to verify your identity.

If you need assistance, please contact us at (406) 444-6900.
