IRS Notices & Letters
“What is a CP12 IRS notice, and what should I do about it?”
A CP12 IRS notice usually means the IRS made a change to a filed return and, in many cases, the adjustment affects the refund amount. The response often depends on what was changed, whether the notice matches the tax return records, and whether the taxpayer agrees with the IRS’s explanation. It can be helpful to compare the notice with the original filing, review any refund or balance change, and keep an eye out for related notices if other items are still under review. If the notice reflects an error, the facts on the return and supporting documents often shape the next step. A targeted review with a CPA can turn the uncertainty into a clear next step.
