IRS says I owe more on 2022 taxes - Help!

Hey everyone, I just got a letter from the IRS saying I owe more money on my 2022 tax return. Has anyone else dealt with this? I'm not sure how much I owe or what to do next. Any advice would be appreciated!

Ugh, that sucks. I got a similar letter last month. Did they give you a specific amount or just say you owe more?

They didn't give me an exact amount, which is making me even more anxious. How much did you end up owing?

I owed about $800. It was from some freelance work I did and didn't report properly. Make sure you check all your income sources!

Thanks for the tip! I'll double-check everything. $800 isn't as bad as I was fearing, tbh.

First thing you should do is call the IRS and get more details. Don't panic, it could be a simple mistake or miscalculation. Here's what I'd recommend: • Call the IRS at 1-800-829-1040 • Have your letter and tax return handy • Ask for a detailed explanation of what they think you owe • If you disagree, you can request an appeal • If you do owe, ask about payment plans Remember, the IRS isn't out to get you. They're usually willing to work with you if you're proactive.

This is great advice! I'd add that you should also consider getting a tax professional to look over your return. They might spot something you missed.

I found a method to get someone on the phone. 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 explaining it: https://youtu.be/_kiP6q8DX5c

Sounds too good to be true. Does it really work? $20 seems steep just to make a phone call.

I was skeptical too, but it actually worked for me. Saved me hours of hold time. Worth it if you value your time.

Can you give more details about how it works? Do they just keep redialing or what?

From what I understand, they use some kind of AI to navigate the phone menus and detect when a human picks up. Then it calls you. Pretty clever tbh.

make sure you check if its actually from the IRS! Lots of scams out there trying to trick people. The real IRS won't call you or email you out of the blue.

Good point! It came in the mail and looks legit, but I'll double-check to be sure. Thanks for the heads up!

This happened to me last year. Turns out I forgot to report some crypto gains 🤦‍♂️ Check if you had any investments or side income you might have overlooked.

Tell me about it! I'm using a tracking app now to make sure it doesn't happen again. Live and learn, I guess 🤷‍♂️

Anyone else feel like the tax system is deliberately complicated just to trip us up? 🤔 It's like they want us to make mistakes so they can charge more.

Hey OP, whatever you do, don't ignore the letter! I made that mistake once and ended up owing way more in penalties. Deal with it asap!
