Dear John Letters From The IRS
The Internal Revenue Service sends out millions of Dear John letters to taxpayers every year. Instead of informing you of a break up, these letters let you know the IRS would like to get a bit closer. Before you bang your head on the wall, you should understand these letters are typically not the sign of impending doom.
Dear John letters from the IRS are technically known as correspondence audits. Instead of showing up on your doorstep, the IRS simply sends a letter regarding some aspect of your taxes. The letter may inform you the IRS believes you owe extra money because of some issue. Surprising, the IRS may also send you a notice that it believes you overpaid some aspect of business taxes. Unfortunately, it does not do this for personal returns. The letter may also contain a request for an explanation of some aspect of your return or documentation supporting the same. Regardless, you need to understand the IRS sends so many of these out that there really is no reason to panic.
Importantly, the IRS almost always asks you to take very simple steps in the letter. You are almost always asked to agree or disagree with whatever they are requesting. If you agree, you rarely have to actually do anything other than perhaps cut a check. If you disagree, you need to write a letter explaining why and then wait a few months for the IRS to get back to you. If the IRS does not agree with your explanation, a larger audit proceeding may be undertaken.
Dear John letters from the IRS almost always cover simple matters. Make sure to keep copies of all correspondence, so you have a record of how things went down. The IRS often loses such things, so it can keep you out of trouble down the road if the IRS sends a second letter on the same issue.
