What is 9325?

Form 9325, Acknowledgement and General Information for Taxpayers Who File Returns Electronically, is completed by an electronic return originator (ERO), such as a tax preparer, after the IRS acknowledges an e-filed individual return. It records the taxpayer’s name, the submission identification number, and whether the return was accepted, and it summarizes what to expect next.

The form also covers practical follow-ups: how to check refund status, what happens if a payment or direct deposit needs attention, and who to contact with questions. It is given to the taxpayer for their records, not filed with the IRS.

Frequently asked questions

Is a preparer required to give me Form 9325?

EROs must provide acceptance confirmation if the taxpayer requests it, and many provide Form 9325 as a routine practice. If you e-file your own return through software, the software’s acceptance notice serves the same purpose.

Does Form 9325 prove my refund is approved?

No. It confirms the IRS accepted the e-filed return for processing. Refund timing is separate; use the Where’s My Refund tool at irs.gov to track it.
