IRS Notices & Letters
“I have an IRS CP49 notice, what does it mean?”
An IRS CP49 notice generally points to an offset of an overpayment, often because the IRS applied a refund or other credit to another tax balance or a related federal debt. The exact meaning depends on the tax year involved, whether the notice refers to an individual or joint return, and whether there are other IRS accounts or government debts connected to the taxpayer. It is often helpful to compare the notice with prior filings and any refund records, since the notice may explain why the expected payment or refund was adjusted. Going through your records with a CPA usually surfaces the answer in under an hour.
