2022 – 02/14 It’s widely known that the IRS is experiencing difficulties processing tax returns from last year. In fact, it was recently reported that nearly 24 million taxpayers are still waiting for the IRS to process their 2020 tax returns, with some refunds held up for 10 months or more. Because of this, the IRS will suspend the mailing of more than a dozen letters, including the mailing of automated collection notices normally issued when a taxpayer owes additional tax and the IRS has no record of the taxpayer filing a tax return. Be aware that some people may still receive these notices during the next few weeks. Generally, there’s no need to respond to them. Contact us with any questions.
