A. There are 2 feasible situations:
1. The letter can be a main notice of reduction which implies it is not an audit letter, however a billing for solutions, and also consequently, the Internal Revenue Service is not qualified to a repayment.
2. The letter can be an alert of audit which is not mellowed out. Instead, it is an audit letter. Nevertheless, it is an assessment of the taxpayer’s publications and also documents to identify whether the taxpayer is submitting tax return. After the Internal Revenue Service audit letter, a repayment schedules on the quantity in the letter. It would certainly not be unusual for this letter to have actually been sent out initially, and also the taxpayer spent for solutions, however failed to remember to pay on the letter.
To stay clear of issues, constantly have actually mellowed out letters and also notifications sent by mail to the taxpayer within 10 days of the day of the letter.

As a tax obligation lawyer, I have actually never ever shed a situation due to the fact that the taxpayer paid within the 10 day duration and also the letter. If a taxpayer has numerous addresses, you will certainly need to investigate their addresses, and also identify which is the appropriate address. If you have an inquiry regarding the address on data and also it does not match, obtain the taxpayer to upgrade their address on data. If you do not do this, and also you do not obtain a reaction, you have a situation.
