Mailing a letter or notice to a taxpayer is a common way for the IRS to ask questions, inform them of account changes, or request payment.
Key Points
- Don’t Panic: When receiving correspondence from the Internal Revenue Service (IRS), neither panic nor disregard is warranted.
- Read carefully: Since each notice addresses a unique question, it's important to read it in full before responding.
- Review Information: If the requested alteration pertains to your tax return, the notice from the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) should provide all the relevant details. Take a look at the updated version of your tax return.
- Tax Action: Within the specified time frame, you must take the necessary steps, which may include making a tax payment or providing additional documentation.
- Dispute: If there is a dispute, contact the IRS within the allotted time to let them know. Send the letter to the address shown on the back of the contact slip to resolve the disagreement.
- Documentation: Keep documentation of all correspondence, disputes, dates of responses, etc.
- Hire a Professional: If you feel overwhelmed by the task at hand, a tax professional should be consulted.
