Received an IRS letter or notice after filing your tax return? Don’t panic, but don’t ignore it. The IRS often sends letters or notices to request information, notify a taxpayer of changes, verify a taxpayer’s identity or seek payment. If action is needed, follow the instructions and respond by the specified due date. If a notice informs you that you owe taxes, pay as much as possible by the due date to reduce interest and penalties. Or you can dispute a balance due by following the instructions in the letter and including any supporting documents. If you have concerns, we can review the notice and advise you on the next steps.
