What happens if I fail to complete the identity verification process?

If you fail to complete the verification process within 15 minutes, your completed form will not be transmitted to the IRS, and it will revert back to 'In-progress.' You will then need to continue to transmit the form to the IRS when you are ready for the verification process.
