The Individual Master File On-Line system provides read-only access to accounts on the Individual Master File (IMF) in Martinsburg, WV. All modules on the IMF plus all tax modules dropped to retention from 1994 to present are available for display. All transactions resequenced, including those resequenced with RC 24 (TC610 remittance with return) will be viewed using definer code Q. Paper refunds may be researched by check number using definer code C or by TIN, MFT and Tax Period using definer code #. IRA MFT 29 tax modules are included in the IMF.
-
Purpose: This IRM section provides the instructions for the use of Integrated Data Retrieval System (IDRS) command code IMFOL to display the IMF (Individual Master File) data.
-
Audience: Wage & Investment (W&I), Large Business and International (LB&I), Small Business Self-Employed (SB/SE), Tax Exempt and Government Entities (TE/GE).

-
This command code provides read-only access to the Individual Master File. Fields available include basic identifying information, amounts, dates, codes, indicators, and freezes. Transaction posting and status history are also available. For any specified account, a tax module Index can be requested. Additionally, IMFOL provides recovery to Master File of tax modules dropped to retention (dropped from 1994 to present only).
-
IMFOL files are updated daily, concurrently with the tape IMF. IMFOL is an on-line version of the tape IMF at Enterprise Computing Center - Martinsburg (ECC-MTB). Normally, the files will be updated Monday through Friday night unless there is an elongated day.
-
IMFOL contains an exact copy of all the entity module and tax module records on the IMF as well as all modules dropped to the retention register from 1994 to the present. This file also has an Index Record for each account (SSN) on the IMF identifying tax modules present on the IMF and retention modules available though IMFOL.
-
-
IMFOL does not show pending transactions, IDRS control bases or history items or unpostable transactions.
-
IRA MFT 29 tax modules are included in the IMF.
-
Archived IRAF tax modules can be viewed and restored to the active Master File with Command Code IMFOR and Definer Code B.
-
Archived IRAF tax modules are not listed on the IMFOL Index Screen.
-
-
IMFOL definer code B will restore MFT 30 recoverable retention tax modules (dropped from 1994 to present) back to the active Master File. Recoverable Retention Register (RRR) tax modules are listed on the Index Screen.
-
IMFOL definer code Q displays all resequenced transactions (enter SSN) or transactions resequenced with RC24.
-
TC610 transactions (remittance with return) are resequenced when the account does not exist, as a 610 can not create an account. These 610s are assigned Resequence Code (RC) 24. The 610 will resequence until the account is created (at which time it will attempt to post) or until it has resequenced at least 3 cycles. It will continue to resequence until ECC-MTB cycle 29 when it will unpost 151 if the account has not yet been created. After cycle 29 the 610 will unpost 151 when it has resequenced 3 cycles.
-
The User will input either a SSN or an Amount (amount must have decimal point). IMFOL will read the resequence files and display all transactions matching the input SSN or Amount.
-
At peak cycles, around April 15th, the potential exists for 2000 or more records for the same dollar amount (100.00, in particular is very common). Display will be limited to 40 pages or approximately 840 transactions.
-
-
A help feature, definer code H, provides general information to the user about IMFOL. A help feature for input formats, definer code ?, provides user information for inputting IMFOL commands.
-
Whenever possible the entire set of data requested will be presented on a single page. When all the data cannot fit on a single page, multiple pages will be required for the presentation of the entire set of data. In those cases users may request a particular page number. The next page can be accessed by pressing the XMIT key.
-
Abbreviated input formats permit the user to display related data without reentering a full command. Once a TIN has been input subsequent inputs do not have to provide the TIN.
-
This command code is input exactly the same and provides the exact same responses as command code IMFOL with one exception. The taxpayer's bank account information, Bank Account Number, ABA Routing Transit Number and the Account Type (checking/saving), are displayed only for IMFOB. These fields are restricted to only those Users with a need to have access to this information.
-
IMFOL definer code B is used to restore RRR tax modules back to the active Master File. RRR tax modules are those dropped from 1994 to present and are listed on the Index Screen, definer code I.
-
Two transactions are created by run 460-26 (ECC-MTB), a TC 013 with the name line and a TC 370 with the tax module. IMFOL sends these transactions weekly to IMF and they will attempt to post that cycle.
-
Weekly cut-off time for IMFOLB requests is 5:00 P.M. ET. Requests input after 5:00 PM Wednesday are processed the following cycle.
-
Note that only TC 370 is generated for IRAF restorations (IMFORB) as no name line is required.
-
460-26 is not run for the final two cycles of the year, or in cycles 01-03 at the beginning of each year. Any pending requests are purged as part of the beginning of year processing
-
If multiple tax modules are requested to be returned from retention, and those tax modules' name line information varies, transactions will only be created for modules having name lines that match with the first processed module. Modules with non-matching name lines will be deferred until later cycles. IMFOL will not show any unpostable code or other information for deferred accounts.
-
-
When IMFOLB is input for a specific tax module it is marked in the online file as "Pending reestablishment to Master File" . The User should verify the "Pending" message is displayed on the IMFOL definer code T screen. Once the Pending message is displayed, subsequent inputs of IMFOLB for the tax module are ignored, except as noted in (4) below.
-
460-26 runs two times per cycle. On the Weekly Day, it runs in the morning, and creates a file that is input to 460-02 of accounts to be restored to the master file. On the following Monday, the resequence/unpostable files from Run 12 (460-12-16) are read in, and the statuses of the requests are updated. If a tax module does not reestablish back onto the active Master File and the Retention Register message literal on the Tax Module Screen remains "Pending" , contact your local IDRS User Support.
-
-
IMFOL RRR transactions that are unposted by IMF are not sent to GUF. The UPC will be displayed on the IMFOL screens. When IMF unposts or resequences IMFOL RRR transactions, IMF puts them to the resequence file then does a "print and drop" . IMFOL resubmits most of these transactions back to IMF the following cycle to attempt to post again.
-
If either the 013 or 370 transaction unposts IMFOL will display the unpostable codes (UPC) within the Retention Register literal that appears in the center of line two on the Tax, Return, Status History and Adjustment screens.
-
IMF will only post one unique name line per cycle to an account. If there are more Tax Modules attempting to post and the name lines are not the same they will be resequenced until the following cycle. The UPCs displayed when they are being resequenced are TC370 UPC 188/1 and TC013 UPC 000/0.
-
TC370 with UPC 188/1 indicates the tax module could not post because a matching name line was not found.
-
TC013 with UPC 157/2 indicates a problem with the name line. Usually this is because there is not a space on both sides of the "& " or the "&" is not followed by a minimum of alpha blank alpha, e.g., "Joe & Mary Smith" , not "Joe Smith & Mary" .
-
In the case where the UPC code indicates there is an invalid name line, a corrective manual name line for that Tax Year should be input using the INCHG command code. The name line displayed on the IMFOLT screen is the name line attempting to post and the corrective name line should match that name line. The User should take care to mark the start and end of the Taxpayers last name when inputting the corrective name line. When multiple retention tax modules within an account have not restored due to invalid name lines, separate manual name lines must be input for each Tax Year. Once the corrective name line has posted, the retention tax module will post to Master File, usually during the same cycle the corrective name line posts.
-
TC370 with UPC 162/0 indicates a Fiscal Month Mis-Match. The Taxpayer has changed their Tax Period end date since filing the tax module attempting to restore. The Fiscal Month is displayed on the IMFOLE, Entity screen. The User should change the Fiscal Month of the account to match the tax module attempting to post then resubmit the IMFOLB request. Once the RRR tax module posts, the User will change the Fiscal Month of the account back to it's previous value.
-
When Master File unposts an RRR transaction with the following UPC codes, 151/0, 162/0, 183/0, 197/1, and 197/2, IMFOL will not resubmit the transactions for these. The User must resolve the problem that caused these transactions to unpost then resubmit the IMFOLB request.
-
If you can not determine the cause for why the IMFOL RRR transactions unposted, contact your local IDRS User Support.
-
-
This command code provides read-only access to IMF retention tax modules from accounts that merged to a new TIN after the tax module had been dropped to retention. When an account merge takes place retention modules removed prior to the merge continue to be stored under the old TIN. This command code allows access to those records.
-
When the CFOL007 error screen, "Recoverable Retention Register Problem" , is returned after attempting to access a retention module listed on the IMFOL Index screen, (definer code I), the user should try accessing the module using IMFOR.
-
The TIN input with IMFOR is the original TIN of the tax module when it was dropped to retention. The User can find the original TIN by researching entity (definer code E) transactions.
-
-
IMFOR will also provide read-only access to IRA Tax Modules that have been archived.
-
The archived IRA Tax Modules can be restored to the active Master File with Command Code IMFOR Definer Code B.
-
Archived IRA Tax Modules are not listed on the IMFOL Index screen or the IMFOL Vestigial screen.
-
Year Removed is not required for Archived IRA Tax Modules.
-
Run 460-26 will build TC 370 to IMF containing the module to be restored. No name line will be associated with the tax module in this transaction. Therefore no TC 013 will be generated as with RRR module restoration.
-
-
Input to IMFOR is the same as IMFOL except it requires the additional input of the year the tax module was dropped to retention. IMFOR executes the same programs as IMFOL and provides the same screen responses as IMFOL. The year removed can be found on the vestigial screen (definer code V) of the current (new) TIN to which the original (old) TIN information merged.
-
Year Removed is not required for archived IRAF modules.
-
-
IMFOR displays the tax module screens only. Valid definer codes are ‘T’ for Tax Module, ‘R’ for Posted Return, ‘S’ for Status History and ‘A’ for Adjustment transactions.
-
Entity information, such as PDT Indicator and Name Control, are not displayed for these modules.
-
IMFOR MFT 30 tax modules can not be re-established to Master File with IMFOL definer code ‘B’.
-
Only IMF MFT 30 modules dropped to retention in 1994 and later are available. Prior years must be retrieved from microfilm.
-
Tax Modules brought online with the IMFOR command code are purged every Friday at 5:00 P.M. ET..
-
CADE2 is the technology foundation that will provide the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) with the capability to manage its tax accounts in a way that is central to the achievement of the IRS' modernization vision. CADE2's goal is to create current, complete, and accurate authoritative data stores and construct the related tax administration systems processes. Starting with the first implementation of CADE2, individual (1040) taxpayer accounts will reside on both IMF Virtual Storage Access Method (VSAM) files and CADE2 database. IMF VSAM files will be used as a backup in case the CADE2 database is unavailable or there is a problem accessing the CADE2 database.
-
The user will not need to change their input to access CADE2 data using IMF-On-Line (IMFOL). The IMFOL definer codes and input fields are the same for CADE2 accounts. The screen outputs for CADE2 are the same as they are for IMFOL VSAM files. Accessing the accounts on CADE2 is through the Data Access Service (DAS).
-
IMF processing is now daily with a Day of Week added to the Cycle fields.
-
Additional history screens (Definer Codes J, K and L) are now available with the CADE2 database and these screens can only be displayed if the CADE2 database is available. The other screens (Definer Codes A, E, F, I, P, R, S, T, V, M and Z) will always be displayed with data coming from either CADE2 if available or IMFOL VSAM Files.
-
The processing of CADE2 is described in CADE2 Design Specification Report (DSR) and CADE2 to CFOL Transformation Rules. CADE2 DAS provides Field IDs (FLIDs) for all the same tables as IMFOL does currently in the same order and data structure so that no down stream systems or screens need to be changed.
-
-
The IMFOL Index screen (Definer I) displays the Total Module Balance (which includes accruals (unassessed interest and FTP)) for each module in the account. It also displays the total of all Assessed Module Balances (which excludes accruals of unassessed interest and FTP) in the account.
-
The IMFOL Tax Module screen (Definer T) displays the Assessed Module Balance which excludes accruals of unassessed interest and FTP. This reflects the current module balance at Master File.
-
The Refund Research Database contains paper refunds issued by the Treasury Department Bureau of the Fiscal Service (BFS). Beginning January 2004, BFS will no longer print the TIN on paper checks. The database will contain refunds from all Master Files, IMF, BMF etc.
-
IMFOL Definer code C allows research by Check Number. IMFOL will search for the matching tax module and return the IMFOLT screen if found. BFS does not store TIN validity digits and IMFOL will only attempt to access valid SSNs. Therefore, the User must compare the check with the tax module to ensure they have the correct module. When IMFOL does not find a matching tax module, a screen listing the Check Number, TIN, MFT and Tax Period will be displayed. The User can try BMFOL or NMF to search for the matching tax module.
-
IMFOL Definer code # allows research by TIN, MFT, Tax Period. IMFOL will return a screen listing up to five (5) matching refund checks for that tax period. If more than five checks are found a message is displayed and the User should contact their local IDRS User Support area.
-
Direct Deposit, EFT refunds are not on the database.
-
Paper refunds prior to January 2004 will not be on the database. Paper refunds will remain on the database for 4 years before being purged.

-
Abbreviated formats permit the user to omit input fields that are the same as the previous command. For instance the user may want to view a different Tax Period for the same SSN and MFT or may want to view status information immediately after having viewed the return for the same module. A valid definer is required in all cases.
-
CC IMFOL input with a "tax type " , definer codes T, R, S, M, A and B, input with a MFT and a Tax Period will result in the display of data for the same SSN and display file source from the previous input.
-
CC IMFOL input with a definer will result in a display of information from the previous entity or tax module.
-
Sometimes IMFOL cannot satisfy a request. In most cases a message screen is generated containing a message and explanation. In some cases an index screen is generated instead of a message screen to help the user make his/her next selection. A brief message is placed at the bottom of the index screen.
