GetHuman: So how would you sum up your experience for GetHuman's The IRS customer community? We'll censor any IDs, numbers, or codes and any inappropriate words here out of respect to the millions of other customers using this resource.
GetHuman-82956: This was horrible!!!!My sister has died, I am on a time limit as to get things together for her and cannot get a human being on either the Federal or State level to answer my questions...If the government was trying to get a hold of me, they sure would do it...Let's bring back some American paying jobs and put some human beings back in play. Horrible horrible horrible......
