Common questions

Questions about irs & state notice support

What should I do first when I receive an IRS or state tax notice?

Read the notice, note the response deadline, and preserve the full notice and related records. Do not assume the notice is correct or ignore it; the appropriate response depends on the issue and facts.

Can Filing Karma respond to the IRS for me?

For qualifying engagements, we can review correspondence and assist with a response. Representation before the IRS is accepted only when the matter, authorization, and professional scope are appropriate.

Does receiving a tax notice automatically mean I owe the amount shown?

No. A notice may identify a proposed change, missing information, payment issue, or other matter. The notice and underlying return should be reviewed before deciding how to respond.

These answers are general information, not individualized tax or legal advice. Applicable rules and filing obligations depend on the taxpayer's facts and current law.
