IIRC stands for If I remember correctly, a texting and chat abbreviation.

Signals that a fact is offered from memory and may be imprecise. Common in forums, Reddit threads and technical chat, where readers may go on to check or correct it.

Example: IIRC the warranty covers the battery for two years.

Usage notes

Also expanded as "if I recall correctly." Like AFAIK, it is a Usenet-era hedge that invites correction, and it is widely accepted in informal professional channels. Usually capitalized but common in lowercase.
