About IRS Notice Response & Representation
A clear overview, in simple terms — what it is, why it matters, and how we handle it.
IRS notices usually report a mismatch (CP2000), a balance due (CP14), a penalty (for example for a late Form 5472), or an examination. Most have a response deadline, often 30 days. A timely, documented response — agreeing, disagreeing with evidence, or requesting penalty abatement for reasonable cause or first-time abatement — resolves most cases without escalation. Representation before the IRS is by an enrolled agent, CPA or attorney.
Notices to people living in India often arrive late by post, leaving little time. We act quickly, obtain transcripts, and prepare the response with Form 2848 authorising our partner EA or CPA.
Penalty abatement is often possible for first-time issues or where reasonable cause can be shown; we prepare the facts and documents to support it.
| Common notices | CP2000, CP14, CP504, penalty notices |
|---|---|
| Typical deadline | 30 days |
| Authorisation | Form 2848 |
| Abatement | First-time abatement or reasonable cause |
