The LTR 5072C provides a status update on your identity theft case, similar to the CP01C. The investigation is ongoing and the IRS is keeping you informed. The letter may confirm progress, request additional information, or explain a delay.
If Action Is Needed
Some update letters include requests for additional documentation. If the LTR 5072C asks for something, provide it promptly. Every delay in responding extends the overall case timeline.
If It's Informational
Note the date and file the letter with your case records. Continue monitoring your IRS Online Account for changes. If you haven't received resolution within the timeframe stated in prior correspondence, call the IDTVA unit using the case-specific phone number from your original letters.
If your identity theft case needs attention, call us at (813) 229-7100.
