IRS Notices & Letters
“I got a CP2000 from the IRS, what do I need to do?”
A CP2000 usually means the IRS matched third-party information, such as W-2s, 1099s, or brokerage reports, against a filed return and saw a difference. The practical response often depends on what income, deductions, or basis information is involved, whether the IRS figures are correct, and whether supporting records can explain the mismatch. In many cases, the notice can be resolved by comparing the IRS proposal with the original return and any missing documents, then responding in the manner and timeframe shown on the notice. Keeping the envelope, notice number, and all related records together can help frame the next steps. A CPA who reads your specifics can usually tell you, in plain English, where this lands.
