How to use this safely
Use the notes on this page to organize facts before you contact the IRS, review an official IRS tool, or speak with a qualified tax professional. Keep the original notice, envelope, and every page of supporting records together.
Do not enter Social Security numbers, full bank account numbers, IRS account passwords, or complete tax returns here. If a deadline is close, a levy is active, payroll taxes are involved, or you are unsure about appeal rights, get individual review before acting.
