Got CP063 notice from IRS - What to do next? Need advice ASAP!

Ugh, I got one of those last year. It's basically saying there's a problem with your return and they need more info. Have you tried logging into your IRS account online? Sometimes you can see more details there.

CP063 is usually about unreported income. Did you forget to include any 1099s or other income on your return? That's often the culprit.

I found a way to actually get someone on the phone about this. I used this site's (claimyr.com) calling tool that dials the phone menu, stays on hold, waits for a live agent to pick up, then sends the call to my phone. It does cost $20, but it works. Here's a video about it: https://youtu.be/Jc9x-gysK0

Whatever you do, don't ignore it! I made that mistake and ended up with penalties. Respond as soon as you can, even if it's just to ask for more time.

Here's what you need to know about CP063 notices: • It's issued when the IRS believes you have unreported income • They compare info from employers and financial institutions to what's on your return • You have 30 days to respond from the date on the notice • You can either agree and pay, or dispute it if you think it's wrong • If disputing, gather all your income documents (W-2s, 1099s, etc.) • You can request a payment plan if you agree but can't pay in full • Consider getting professional help if it's a large amount or complicated situation Hope this helps! Let me know if you have any other questions.

am i the only 1 who thinks its ridiculous we have to jump through all these hoops just to pay our taxes? 🤡 the system is broken af

Has anyone tried using one of those AI tax assistants? I heard they can help interpret these notices and give advice. Might be worth a shot if you're stuck.

Protip: Always keep a folder with ALL your tax docs, even the ones you think you don't need. You never know when the IRS is gonna come knocking! 📁💼

I went through this exact same situation a few months ago! The CP063 can be really stressful, but here's what worked for me: First, don't panic - you have time to respond. Second, gather ALL your income documents (W-2s, 1099s, bank statements, etc.) and compare them to what you reported. In my case, I had missed a small 1099-MISC from some freelance work. Once I found the discrepancy, I filed an amended return (1040X) and included the missing income. The whole process took about 6 weeks to resolve. If you can't find any missing income and think the IRS is wrong, you can dispute it, but make sure you have solid documentation. Good luck! 🤞
