The Internal Revenue Service (IRS) will send a notice or a letter for any number of reasons. It may be about a specific issue on your federal tax return or account or may tell you about changes to your account, ask you for more information, or request a payment.
You can handle most of this correspondence without calling or visiting an IRS office if you follow the instructions in the document. If you still need help, start by searching for your notice below to get an overview of the notice, and visit our interactive taxpayer roadmap to see where in the tax system you are and what to expect next.
You can view all the Notices at the National Taxpayer Advocate. It is a great resource for everyone to view in understanding IRS Notices.
