Received an IRS Letter and Don’t Understand It?
What This Means
If you’ve received a letter from the IRS, it usually means they are asking questions about your taxes, requesting information, or saying they believe you owe money. These letters often use confusing language and deadlines that aren’t clearly explained.
Most people don’t get into trouble because they did something wrong — they get into trouble because they don’t respond correctly or on time.
What Happens If You Ignore It
- Missed deadlines can trigger penalties and interest
- The IRS may escalate to collections or enforcement
- You may lose the opportunity to explain or correct the issue
