Why Businesses Receive IRS Notices

Receiving an IRS letter doesn’t always mean you’re in trouble. The IRS sends notices for many reasons, including:

  • Reporting discrepancies between business income and what was filed

  • Late or missed tax payments

  • Payroll or 1099 reporting errors

  • Verification requests for deductions or credits

  • Random compliance reviews

Each notice has a specific code in the upper right corner. That code determines the reason for contact and the deadline for response. Ignoring it, even accidentally, can lead to penalties or enforced action like liens, levies, or account holds.

The First Thing to Do When You Get an IRS Notice

Do not ignore it. The clock starts ticking the moment you receive it. The IRS expects a response within a stated timeframe, usually between 10 and 30 days. The sooner your tax professional reviews it, the better your outcome.

Steve Perry has extensive experience interpreting IRS language and identifying the most efficient way to respond. He personally reviews each notice and helps you:

  • Understand exactly what the IRS is questioning or demanding

  • Verify the accuracy of the IRS claim

  • Prepare a professional written response backed by documentation

  • Communicate directly with the IRS on your behalf

With Steve’s proven approach, your business avoids unnecessary penalties and shows the IRS that you are serious about timely compliance.

Common Mistakes Business Owners Make

Many business owners make critical mistakes after receiving an IRS notice. Among the most damaging are:

  • Ignoring the letter due to fear or confusion

  • Attempting to call the IRS themselves without support

  • Paying without verifying the accuracy of the notice

  • Sending incomplete or undocumented responses
