IRS Notices & Letters
“My IRS letter says I owe money, but I'm not sure it's actually from the IRS, is it real?”
A letter that claims you owe money can be real, but the details matter. The notice number, the taxpayer information shown, the mailing address, and whether it matches other IRS correspondence are often the first things to review. Scam letters can look official, so the wording, payment instructions, and contact details are also important clues. The type of notice and the tax year involved can shape what it means and whether it is tied to a balance, a return issue, or an identity-theft concern. A short conversation with a CPA can sort out what applies to your specific numbers.
