🚨 TAXPAYER REMINDER: KEEP YOUR INFORMATION CURRENT WITH THE IRS! 🚨
MY CLIENT RECEIVED THIS LETTER IN THIS MIDST OF MOVING… NEVER UPDATED HER ADDRESS SO SHE NEVER RECEIVED IT… AFTER HOURS ON THE PHONE WITH THE IRS… THEY TOLD HER THAT SHE NEEDED TO VERIFY HER IDENTITY
SHE WAS USING A RELATIVE’S ADDRESS… JUST SO HAPPENED THEY’VE BEEN HAVING THE LETTER SINCE FEBRUARY… SHE FOLLOWED THE PROPER INSTRUCTIONS AND RECEIVED HER RETURN TWO WEEKS LATER THAT IS WHY IT’S SO IMPORTANT TO UPDATE ANY AND ALL INFORMATION WITH THE IRS
One thing taxpayers often overlook is making sure their personal information and contact information are up to date.
📌 Make sure the IRS has your current:
• Legal name
• Mailing address
• Phone number
• Email address
• Filing status and other important taxpayer information
Why does this matter? 👀
The IRS may send important notices or verification letters to the address they have on file. In some situations, taxpayers may be asked to verify their identity before the IRS will process a return or release a refund.
📬 If you move and don’t update your address, you could miss an important IRS notice — and that could potentially lead to delays, missed deadlines, or additional headaches.
💡 Don’t wait until tax season to make sure your information is correct.
Keep your information current. Check your mail. Pay attention to IRS notices. And if you receive something from the IRS that you don’t understand, don’t ignore it!
Your refund is important — but protecting your identity and staying compliant is even more important. 💯
