Who Should Reach Out
If you or your business received an IRS notice and are not sure what it means, what is being requested, or how to respond, it is worth having someone review it with you before a deadline passes. This is especially true for notices involving foreign-owned entities, nonresident filers, or multiple years of returns.
How Castagnet Tax Consulting Group Can Help
We start by reviewing the notice with you in plain language: what the IRS is asking for, what the deadline is, and what documentation or information is needed to respond. From there, we help you gather records, prepare a response, and organize supporting documentation. We cannot guarantee any particular outcome with the IRS, but we focus on making sure your response is accurate, complete, and submitted on time.
Our Process
- Review of the notice and any prior correspondence
- Identification of what the IRS is requesting and the applicable deadline
- Document and information gathering
- Preparation of a written response and supporting documentation
- Submission of the response and follow-up as needed
Frequently Asked Questions
I received a notice with a deadline. What should I do first?
Contact us as soon as possible. Many IRS notices have strict response deadlines, and reaching out early generally gives you more options than waiting until the deadline is close.
Does responding to the notice guarantee the issue will be resolved in my favor?
No tax professional can guarantee a specific outcome with the IRS. What we can do is help make sure your response is accurate, well-organized, and supported by appropriate documentation.
Can you communicate with the IRS on my behalf?
Depending on the type of notice and what is required, we help clients prepare documentation and written responses. We will always explain what our role can be for your specific situation before we begin.
