If you’re reaching out about an individual tax issue, the phone number for the IRS is 800-829-1040, and the line is open from 7AM to 7PM local time. For business tax issues, call 800-829-4933 during the same operating hours.

If you prefer in-person help, you can visit your local IRS Taxpayer Assistance Center (TAC). TACs offer free, face-to-face assistance, but you’ll need to make an appointment by calling 844-545-5640. Find your local TAC by visiting https://apps.irs.gov/app/office-locator/.

If you need help with your federal taxes, the IRS can be a great resource, but wait times can be long, especially close to the tax deadline. Luckily, your local Jackson Hewitt Tax Pro is always ready to help. Book your appointment today.
