IRS Notices & Letters
“I just got an IRS CP11 notice, what does it mean?”
An IRS CP11 notice usually means the IRS made a change to a filed return and believes there is a balance due as a result. The details often depend on what item was adjusted, whether it involved income, credits, or filing status, and how the notice compares with the original return. It can also matter whether the information came from an IRS matching process or from a correction to a prior filing. Reviewing the notice carefully and comparing it with the return and supporting records is often the starting point for understanding what the IRS changed and why. A short conversation with a CPA can sort out what applies to your specific numbers.
