Open the Notice - Many Contain Deadlines that Result in Penalties if Ignored
The notice will have a number. The CP14 notice tells you that the IRS thinks you owe money on unpaid taxes. The LT38 notice tells you that the IRS intends to pursue collections on outstanding tax debt. The 1153 letter tells you that the IRS is planning to hold you responsible for outstanding tax debt for your company. The CP75 informs you of an audit of your tax return.

IRS Notice FAQ
The dialogue with the IRS has to begin in order to discover what options there are. Payment plans are possible, and occasionally taxpayers win in negotiations with the IRS. It depends on your facts and circumstances. The IRS only accepts about 20% of offers in compromise. Please do not be fooled by someone promising more than they can deliver.
Don't put off contacting us because you're embarrassed -- we won't judge. We want to help you get your tax obligations defined, and hopefully resolved.
We will help you answer the letter within the deadline, if at all possible. How long it will take to resolve the issue depends on the situation. We'll give you the best advice we can and offer realistic timeframes based on our experience.
The IRS isn't going to go to sleep on the notice they've sent you. Read the letter and find the deadline it contains. Get in touch with us to understand the ramifications of the notice.
